As a gm player I’d also like to remind: dont focus on your teammates performance. Focus on your own. You can analyze every time you die, think about potential plays, and you yourself can always do better. Focusing on how bad your tank is won’t let you improve. What’s worse is flaming. Makes you feel better, but makes your team play worse and it’s just negative for no reason. Gm is a very non toxic place as almost every gm player has adapted this mindset. You should too.
Edit in 2024
I’m now t500 and finished last season t500
Gm is a very toxic place, not much changes throughout the ranks tbh . You have tons of alt accounts who throw games, mostly for wintrading. HOWEVER,
it’s definitely not as toxic compared to a place like plat.
This is a fantastic comment I agree completely. This mindset is truly how you become a good player
I was kinda stuck in high diamond low masters for awhile. Then i did this exact thing you said. Focused on myself and my own mistakes. Then i finally hit gm 😄 so you're 100 percent right
@@nocomment9921 oh i know lmao. Got from plat to gm in all roles AND t500 support in just 8 months. I never get tilted. I lost 5 once, then won 9. I don’t get tilted, even though I went 3-15 then 5-10 and dropped from Gm1 to masters 2
@@xShzdowX nice man!! But yeah great comment. If only every player realized this
@@nocomment9921 damn really? That's amazing I'm so glad you did it! Happy for you! :)
It's such a small detail, but it has really helped improve my aim. When you mentioned Valorant aim and to stop jumping around, she finally began to truly click for me.
Yeah it's super helpful! It's good for other characters too like Hanzo and etc. I'm glad it's helping! :)
For anyone wondering you can't teleport while stuck or "hindered" by Cassidy's Grenade anymore :(
However Suzu will cover most of it so make sure you have Suzu ready when facing a cass

This guys always makes the best guides on youtube
This guy always has the best comments on RUclips 👀

It’s also Scout Vs Scout Aim in TF2, making use of A&D keys especially in Kiri Vs Kiri where shots DO matter.
Especially it’s other heroes that do more damage such as Hanzo, Reaper and others.
Choose your battles, if you feel unsafe, you can use swift step to get out instantly. Just make sure there is a teammate nearby.
im new to ow2 and i literally just got kiriko 5 days ago so THANK YOU FOR THIS STRAIGHTFORWARD GUIDE i literally watched other guides but this has been the best one ive seen !!!
I'm glad it's helpful! And I appreciate that! :)
HOW ARE U WHIT HER NOW
I've seen all kiriko guides and this is the best one I've seen helps alot thx
Thanks! Yeah I'm glad it can be helpful :)
Hey man, I'm stuck between gm5 and gm4 on support (probably because i mainly play ana and my support roster isnt big enough), and I'm trying to expand my knowledge by learning new characters (especially kiriko since she is very good right now), so I wanna thank you for this guide as it helped me learn some stuff even if I'm gm already. The video editing was great too, and it suprises me how underated you are. I'm going to practice and try to learn a lot more for that sweet gm1, so I'm looking forward to any other guides from you if you are willing to do more! I understand this can be rough since youtube probably isnt really rewarding for you right now, but I'm sure you'll grow soon enough. Also it would be cool if you made a discord server for the growing community :)
Anyways, thanks for the video and you just gained one more subscriber.
Thanks I really appreciate that a lot! I hope it can be helpful! If you keep on the grind I'm sure you can do it!
And yeah I'm trying my best on RUclips and it is difficult but I'll keep doing my best! :) I'll definately be making a discord server soon! Thank you so much!
@@Javofo That's nice to hear man :)
Thank you very much!!!
This is really helpful and is most likely to stick in our minds!
Upping my game is so difficult and most of the time the tips are way too high ceiling or just not easy to do!
You're welcome! Yeah I hope I was able to explain it well enough! :) I believe in you!
man you've just gave me THE BEST advice for main support! i'll sub u
Thanks!! Yeah I hope it's helpful! :) thanks for the sub!
the tip on throwing 1 knife in between heals without losing healing is super good for maximizing damage output, being aware of that is huge so you can take more shots overall. ty great vid
Thanks for making this guide! You earned my subscribe :)
Ofcourse!! I'm glad I could help! :) Thank you!!!
I was automatically shooting between heals since I play Bap a lot and it's kinda a habit but I actually thought doing that was the reason some of my teammates died nice to know now that it doesn't decrease the healing output.
Wow yeah it's good to have it down as a habit tho! Glad I could inform you on it! :)
@@Javofo I saw in another comment you can actually fire 2 kunai is this still the case or did that change again?
@@dutchproxx6453 after doing some research on it I found that you can fit in 1.8 kunai between healing. Which means you do loose a tiny bit of healing time but not much at all. If someone is dying I might only throw 1 between healing them if you don't have your suzu.
(appearently they buffed the healing ofuda charge time in season 3 making it like this)
@@Javofo okay thanks thats very helpful. Im personally high masters on support so not a total noob but information like this are very helpful to step your game up to the next level.
@@dutchproxx6453 I agree! I hope you're able to GM soon! :)
Kiriko's actually a shrine maiden but I believe her mother is a Ninja. She takes after her Grandma who was also a shrine maiden
I didn't realize that that's good to know lol. Wouldn't that make her both?
@@Javofo yeah both for sure i think thats what shes referring to when she says combining both the old and new
@@clairemadeinheaven that makes so much more sense now. I love it
Her Grandma was a shrine maiden who look after the Fox spirit while Asa Sensei Kiriko mom chose the path of the blade due to not believing in the fox spirit she was trained by her grandmother to heal and summon the fox spirit and she trained with Hanzo and Genji to learn the path of the blade which was taught by her mother so she is infact a ninja while being a protector of the fox spirit
You're the reason I play this hero. Love your guide.
you must enjoy her as a hero as well :) happy gaming!
thank you so much it help to way to much keep up the work
Thanks!! I hope it's helpful :)
"You can always get out with your teleport" tell that to the bug they can never fix lmao
True. I have been getting that bug CONSTANTLY lately it's so bad!! And it wastes the cooldown most of the time for me :(
Subscribed. Good luck, nice edit and VO.
Thanks!! That means a lot :)
I only started playing to pocket mercy my friend but when I saw kiri i just knew I had to learn her, first time I played her, my gm zarya friend was super surprised that my aim was actually pretty good on her 😂 made me so happy so now I am gonna learn her and get the best I can at her! The k u for the guide
That's awesome! Yeah kiriko is great I knew I just had to play her as well! And ofcourse:)
As another gm player(bored so I was watching this lol, wondering what this was) and I’ve heard that you should use 100% swift step sens. This allows you to tp even when ur crosshair isn’t near ur teammate. This allows you to have a higher chance to lock onto the teleport so you don’t die for no reason. I hit Gm1 on console, and I wish I could play on pc. I approve of everything in here, this is all great advice.
I especially stress to not die. Winning 1v1s against enemy Dps is amazing, but you must be confident and careful in your 1v1 decisions. Dying can easily cost u the fight
That's a really great way of putting those things. On console I could see the 100% swift step being pretty necessary. Yeah I might even lower mine from 70 just because it's annoying to teleport to the wrong person lol. Yeah staying alive is so important, but you could say that for every character lol. Hey glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for stopping by! :)
@@Javofo yep :) I would love to make guides like these, but the only things I have are my 6 yr old Xbox and controller, and my iPhone 6. I just basically publish some clips on my channel. Speaking of which, do you think 50/50 is forced? I don’t blame my teams in chat or vc and I’m not blaming my teammates, but it feels as if it is. I hit Gm1 and was nearly t500. Then I went 5-11 twice, then went 5-9. And Rn I’m 2-8 at gm5💀💀💀💀💀💀. I got to gm, and I can normally do well in my games, it just feels like a bad tank ends the game for you instantaneously. Not that I can do anything about it, focusing on improving myself is the best I can do
@@Javofo And staying alive is specifically important on support however, because without heals ur team can’t do anything
@@xShzdowX ah yeah it would be hard to edit on a phone for sure lol. But if you have the experience playing your knowledge could be useful to people! Regarding losing because of teammates sure it's inevitable but it happens to enemy teams too. We just gotta not focus on the luck and instead look at what does matter, and that is how well we can play and even carry. It's unfortunate that you have to sometimes carry their weight but it's inevitable. Theres a reason when the pro players/ talented streamers play they remain in top 500 PC. I don't really have the motivation currently to go for top 500 on PC right now though that sounds rough haha. A lot of willpower and mental strength is needed
@@xShzdowX also I think sometimes once we gain a rank we start playing worse because of new found confidence thinking we don't have to try as hard lol. My ego is unfortunately big like that
Thank u for the tips big bro
I gotchu bro
Good tips! great guide
Thank you! Hope it's helpful :)
The quality of this video made me think you were a big time RUclipsr, congratulations
Hey that means a lot to hear! Thank you hopefully I can get there someday :)
thx bro
the quality of this video is so high i thought u were a big youtuber + can u make a video on how to climb in lower ranks for example what do you do when your tank is throwing
Thanks I appreciate it! I can definately make that type of video. :) I already talk a bit about the topic of teammates in other videos as well but I can focus more on that
Is there any advice for a console player? I'm pretty sure my sensitivities are my issue I'm just not sure where they should be. I feel like I have a hard time keeping the aim on that horizontal line.
Loved the video, great tips!
What do you think about awkward's 4 atep plan for kiriko?
meybe you said this in the video (but i forgot) but if you reload as kiriko when her heals are down it reloads the heals before the kunai so you can get your heals up much faster insted of just waiting for them. and if you use the heals before kunai is reloaded it cancels the kunai reload so you can just do it as long as one of your kunai is down
Hmm I'm not sure if I know what you mean lol. Her heals don't need to be reloaded there's just a cooldown between each time you throw out healing. You might be onto something tbh I just woke up looking at this 😂
@@Javofo ok so you can get her heals up faster by like one second with this rotation. Trow a kunai - use heals - (while you waiting for the heals to come back) reload - and then use the heals again before the kinai has been reloaded. If you do that you can get her heals up like 1sec up faster and you will cancel the kunai reloading so you can do it again. I'm not really sure can I explain it you either have to see it for your self or figure out what I mean lmfao
@@ExpertRelic ah okay. Yeah I'll have to see when I get on game again 😂 I think you can always choose not to reload your kunai as well if your team really needs healing
The moment he said val aim: well good im a val player😅😂
lol well she's perfect for you then
5:40 - please come down to Diamond and spam this in lobbies!!!!
As a Kiriko main I love sniping widows :3
when I see a widow, and it's a good map for kiriko. I definately swap right away 😂 it is very fun sniping widows.
do you know what your crosshair settings are for kiriko? i'd appreciate it so much!

Fox power!
hey i have a question! is it better to hold the mouse button to spam her kunais or click for each one you throw?
Typically I click for each one because you want to be as precise as possible trying to get headshots :)
@@Javofo oh i see! thank you! i did recently find it was easier to aim like that with her. trying to get better as shes the support i play most after mercy. i do find that if you play her as the main healer its really hard to flank and try to take 1v1s because the second i try to my whole team is dead. any advice? thank you :)
@@PurpleMoon799 yeah I agree :) it's always better to take it slow with aiming and be precise first. Getting faster comes next! Also yeah unfortunately you can't always flank as her especially if you're main healing. That's why it's good to weave in 1-2 kunai between heals to hopefully help a tank or dps in their duel. I'd say if the fight feels slow and your team is not taking damage it's good to try going for a quick attempt to kill. Also setting up a flank before a fight on defense can catch people off guard :)
@@Javofo tysm for all of the tips :) keep up the good content and work 💜💜
@@PurpleMoon799 ofcourse! Thank you I'll do my best! :)
How is this man not 1Mil yet?
Omg I wish 😂 a slow grind for sure
Good old times when kiri can two shot people
I do miss it :(
I love how you called it "Valorant Aim", cause legit this is what I've been doing with Kiriko as one that actually came from Valorant too //D Haha
Strafing Jett ULT goes OW ftw
Yeah so you get it 😂 true honestly I wouldn't have even thought of it being just like jetts ult lol. That's a good comparison
iirc a couple of patches ago let kiriko weave in 2 kunais without losing max heal. Please correct me if I'm wrong! Great tips!
I think you may be right, I'll have to double check
after doing some research on it I found that you can fit in 1.8 kunai between healing. Which means you do loose a tiny bit of healing time but not much at all. If someone is dying I might only throw 1 between healing them if you don't have your suzu.
(appearently they buffed the healing ofuda charge time in season 3 making it like this)
@@Javofo healing ofuda recovery went from 1 to 0.9 in season 5 which is a pretty good buff, it was 0.85 before it was nerfed
I feel like most ppl dont have 30+ minutes to allot for warmup, i would probably stick with 10 minutes of the aim training lab
That's true but 10 minutes unfortunately doesn't do very much especially the higher you go
Just occurred to me I never use her and that's because she's a throwpick when I can't aim. Her ult is so good though
She could be useful even without her damage in situations. Such as if your team keeps getting antinaded by ana then being able to cleanse those effects are very useful! Especially if you have a hog that is getting purpled. :)
What do you do when you kill the entire team but your teammates still die off of point and won't play objective?
hmmm unfortunately. Not much 😅Tho not every game is like that
If Cass mag nades you, and you tp away, don't you bring the nade with you to your ally?
With new sticky nade you can no longer tp however you can suzu yourself and it gets rid of it. So while immortal you can also tp out :) (honestly I forgot if it straight up deletes it or if it just falls to the ground pretty sure it just gets deleted)
I'm having a hard to time on which one to use. Mauga or Kiriko?
Why not both? Unless you mean open queue
I'll say most find tank less fun in overwatch 2. Kiriko also has always been good. What tanks are good switch sound and also playing tank requires counter switching to different tanks
How much easier does this look on PVC
So here is the deal with me. I have never played a first-person shooter game. Ever. That is until OW2 came out. yes, I am late to the party. But I'm here before it ended, right? I really only joined because it was an opportunity to have something in common or have something to talk about or play with a friend of a friend that I had just met. Anyways - that's not the point. the point is that when I played. Apparently, my now gamer friend has told me I have really good aim and suggested I try to work with characters that are... considered very deadly when it comes to sniping. She suggested Hanzo, Widow, Ashe. You get the point. I did pretty well for someone that has never played games before. (Side note: I prefer to read and go outside. So that is why I spent my life not playing games other than Mario Kart and Pokémon) But even when I did well. I wasn't that excited to play. It was fun, don't get me wrong. But the characters don't fit. Not sure how to explain that. When Kiriko was first introduced and the animation that went along with her. OH, MY GAWD! It's like I fell in love. Okay... I am odd for being this way. But When I finally received her. I felt like I wanted to actually learn how to use her. So, here I am now. Looking at any video I can find to give helpful tips. I approve of this! Hope my mini story wasn't a waste of anyone's time. Whoever decides to read this. I am just happy to play. And dw. I play Ashe as well if I need. ALSO, any tips for someone who may want to play all support heros?
Hey that's awesome. For me my love for the game started with me playing the heroes I really wanted to play. When Kiriko came out I felt that same way again for the first time in years. She's super fun and a cool character. Honestly I wouldn't say you need to learn every support. If you play the game for a while you'll learn them all over time, but it's more important to master the few that you want to first. Ana is a super fun support as well I'd recommend her, but it's also up to you ofc. It's good to master a few that cover the bases you need covered. Just keep playing and learning from people and you got it :) I hope you can keep having fun with the game!
VALORANT AIM?!?! OOOH, I CAN DO THAT!!! (Long time valorant nolifer)
All that well, but how Kiriko can defend herself against other heroes, for instance against Moira who has autoaim and a life-sucking black orb?
kunai, teleport, and suzu, or being near allies
the skin is called amaterasu no wonder ur winning
Fr 😂
To be honest I realised how poor my positioning (sorry if i spelled it wrong) was as kiriko btw I'm bronze 4 with kiriko
And how bad my aim was once I saw this video I realised that how much I actually improved since I saw this video

😂😂 I'm still figuring that out myself
For some reason i cant switch my right and left clicks
That's really strange? Are you doing it in regular control settings or did you switch to kiriko only?

May I know your dpi and in game sensitivity?
Yeah I use 1600 dpi with 2.39 in game sensitivity :)
Hold up she climbs walls 😮
She seems easier than ana. I usually main ana and brig, every match feels like life or death
She definately can stay alive easier than Ana however I'd say it can be harder to get value
HOW DO U CLIMB THE WALL THAT MUCH 😭😭 i can only do double jump off it
I'm not sure what you mean lol. Just hold forward and jump button to climb

I mean it should with the kiriko playstyle. The aim tips might be different tho lol
Im always calling myself a tracer counter coz one shoot on tracer are so easy with kiriko
You must have some really good aim then! lol that's awesome
@@Javofo im on controller and when i think about that it must be tracer’s mistake coz my sens is not really elevated
So I should thanks the tracers instead of my aim but kill em is still really appreciating 👻
@@genrecoucou600 yeah she honestly can counter tracer. It's a lot of damage to her lol

ok thought i was tripping and missed something lol. Either way the buff is amazing lmfao why did they do that. @@Javofo
@@SynchroFPS lol yeah. Yeah I feel like kiriko will be really good this season since it counters another new thing: illari ult
controller settings?
Sorry I would love to provide that but I don't play on console :( I'm sure there are good videos for that though
@@Javofo rip :( it’s okay
My teams literally get obliterated if i don't heal for 5 seconds. I have a crit percentage of 25-30 per game so i'm decent at clicking heads but people on gold have horrendous positioning and decisions so i have to healbot most of the time. Unfortunately i have a winrate of like 35% so i'm rapidly going down despite having most heal and damage of all supports in game. This is high gold btw.
That is rather unfortunate. Well maybe instead you can help your team get kills rather than go off for them on your own. Strange that you would have most damage. Usually as Kiriko sometimes I can have top elims but not damage. Also maybe there's something else going on that you don't realize that is bringing you down.
For me I had a lot of bad habits I wasn't aware of until I had my vod reviewed just once. Are you on PC or Console?
@@Javofo PC. I solo queued my way to plat, deranked to gold due to getting frequent steamrolls (games with NO WAY to win), and now on my way to derank to silver. Something just feels wrong with what's going on. I don't care about rank too much, but having a winrate that low is not fun to play with.
@@__matcha yeah that's fair and I've definitely been there it's not fun. It's hard to say what could help you without knowing your playstyle and such. Do you think maybe you try dpsing too much on kiri?
@@Javofo I only have 40 hours on ow2 (didn't play the og) but i'm an ex paladins player with 1k hours, they're similar in terms of gameplay so i was decent at the start. Being placed on gold as my first rank and climbed to plat in a week. Although i probably make small but consecutive mistakes that contribute to bigger problems. I was playing QP yesterday in a lobby full of bronze-silvers and i stomped everyone. This would be the same case if a master or gm were to play at gold. So how can i stomp on bronzies but not golds and plats? because i'm not good enough to climb yet. I can hold my own, but holding isn't seem to be enough. That's my explanation on it, as bitter as it is.
@@__matcha oooh okay yeah I see that tends to happen with new accounts where It places you higher. With more experience you can definately get back up there. Keep consuming information and playing the game and you'll go up definately if you're trying to improve!
That's awesome that you're able to do that in qp it makes kiriko very fun lol.
It’s kiriko bro I don’t think anybody needs a tutorial on how to succeed with her

You could be the best healer in ow2 but if your team is trash you would never ever ranked up. I main kiriko and every single game I heal somewhere between 15k to 20k and am stuck in silver.
Tho it's not just about healing. Sure some games you do get bad teammates but on average statistically you should win 50% of the time based on teammates. Support isn't just healing. Utility is to be used for either saving your team or helping your team kill the enemy. As ana getting huge nades/sleeps helps win fights. Same with kiriko of you help assist with kills or get kills on flankers. That's the reason I say you have to carry. Have to win over 50% of your games to rank up.
You're not stuck you just need to improve! There's so much more to overwatch that even the highest rank players don't know/think of! :)
Step number one: have good aim
Lol certainly part of it
