Thank you so much banana man ! i was a hardstuck gold and having trouble when i party with my immortal friends but after watching a couple of your videos im already doing good against them and they are not as good as i tought !
@@iqflash755 there are so many other factors that can affect your progression other than just your aim. However the most common thing I experience in diamond for an entire year is my movement, my indecisive decision making and panic aim. Just by changing a few habits and putting them into practice during comps has gotten me out of diamond for the first time. When you reach diamond, you're at a point where your aim is good enough to compete with asc or even immo players, but you lack the experience that they have. One way I've improved my movement is by watching woohoojin's movement guides. It's very useful to get you to understand the basics of movement. Even when you're at mid-high elo, people still don't understand how movement works because they've just been autopiloting and making it work without knowing what they did that impacted their performance. For decision making I just watched pro vods and woohoojin vods. It got to me that I was always scared of making the wrong decision that I end up throwing rounds away because I get lost in thought and get distracted. If you want to do something creative and unusual, go for it. 8 times out of 10 it'll work out if you're confident in your aim and movement, because you can make your 50/50 fights turn into 55/45 with just confidence alone. But be wary as doing it too many times makes you predictable and enemies will anticipate your actions. But you have to know the right time to do it. Sounds counter intuitive but you'll understand once you try them enough. With panic aim it's more about flicking too much when you don't need to because you had bad placement or because you weren't expect a fight. Flicking too much is just something you have to practice in the range and by watching how pros aim (I recommend demon1 since he's the type of guy that will always wait till his crosshair is at the enemies' head before shooting the first bullet). You need to remember that enemies can use any angle to their advantage when taking a fight, mostly unusual angles - hence off angles. The higher you climb the more you'll realize how powerful off angles are, so you need to prepare yourself for a fight when taking space. There are lots of common off angles you can pre aim which you can find just from going on youtube or from experience. Never be lazy to clear angles, always fully clear them and expecting a fight.
This is incredibly effective! It took practice in the skill test and bomb practices in the Range to get ready, but then first DM was a massive improvement. (among the other things it did was force me to take the "free" silent side-steps to A D - so much to learn still) Thank you!
When I was practicing my awful crosshair placement, I'd always pick up the guardian and bind the relod to left click, if I shoot and miss I reload if i kill then the reload animation is cancelled because that's how dm works. Maybe it's pretty weird and not a suitable way to learning crosshair placement, but it helped me a lot and I noticed improvements quite fast.
wouldnt that make you restricted from re adjusting your aim? the point is improve you aim not torture you if not get a kill with a single chance to kill an enemy
@@shai-zeecks nah. The point was to bring calmness into the aim, improve crosshair placement and improve first shot accuracy. It was very easy to not take my time and just shoot earlier than I should, and this pretty much fixed that issue
@@shai-zeecks Do a different exercise for practicing re adjustment. Like the one where you overflick or under flick and re adjust with yoir movement. This one is to get better crosshair placement and minimize rushing shots
So I just had one of those 3am experiences, where you just watch everything RUclips has to offer. Stumbled upon one of your videos, and have now listened to you coaching for about 3 hours, I like your style and your personality, you gained a follower :)
I just saw my first hooj video a couple weeks ago and I subbed on the spot. I figured he was at at least 100k subs. But apparently not. He certainly should be
I do that shitty circular peek all the time and I hate that I do but when my mental is down it’s so hard to fix it. I think the w bind for dm will really help with building the correct muscle memory though.
hey woohoojin, thank you for the great coaching as always, i just wanted to say that your w key binding also helped me with my crouch spray problem, i have a few lower ranked friends who also have a problem with that, but i plan on referring them to you, thank you 🍌
thank you so much for putting the big huge groundbreaking tip right at the start i was literally just gonna watch for the tip and then click off but some how by putting it at the start i wanna watch more now???? thank you mr banana
goated video banana man! I am very anxious while playing ranked especially solo queue so I do not play much but from the next act I will try. You can say your 'radiation' mutated my anxiousness into motivation.
I play controller, but the pathing, micro timing, coordination, and specificity of calls are things I didn’t actively think about until I started watching these. Super helpful
I do have a genuine question about peeking. At 14:34, right before you peek platform to clear it, you opt to get closer to the wall before peeking, why is that? I’ve watched way too many videos that suggest that peeking closer to the wall is worse due to angle perception (ie the enemy sees you before you see them), and that it should only really be used when wide swinging for the speed. Also, in this very example, if there was an enemy holding garage from platform, would you have jiggled him like you did or you would have stopped and fired on that same peek? I’ve watched your other video where you duel gold players on long c, but even then I’m still left unsure of what the proper way of taking fights is.
he is just strafing to get info/take a quick shot and not actually commit. and the closer you are to the wall, the faster you appear for your opponent, so the chances of you dying while peeking are smaller.
I'm almost certain the jiggle peak is mainly for info everytime he swings it's usually slight diagonally (without pressing w) by pressing a or d. I've started doing this and I'm winning more fights too.
The reason he gets close to swing is that no matter how far he goes back, he always loses in angle advantage. There will be angles like that where it's physically impossible to have angle advantage on the person holding you In those cases, it's best to wide swing it. So basically when you have a big angle advantage it's always better to slice the pie or even shift peek in some cases. If the angle advantage is small either player, it won't really matter if you take the time to get further from the wall. If the person holding has a big angle advantage, then you should wide swing because if you try to slice the pie, they'll see you before you see them
Hi I like your videos. They help me to understand the game more! Btw, in case you don't know, you can press , and . to traverse frame by frame while paused
At 4:58 , is it not plausible to hold onto the dash because all the close angles were cleared by fade eye? Seeing as the point of dashing is to divert their attention for your team, making space. If he saves the dash he can clear backsite safer with the option to dash back to his team. What are your thoughts on this?
Maybe holding the dash was fine but Jett pathing was really bad. He shouldve followed the prowler logs and be ready to use dash if he messes up the peek.
Only using A/D is better than diagonal movement because you're moving faster horizontally, making you harder to hit by the opponent you're peeking. Woohoojin have a good graph showing how this works, but I forgot which video is it in.
Not really tbh, the dog could very well not see someone tucked in logs, the fade dog doesn't see 180º. He also walked up before the dog passed logs anyway.
I'm gold but this jett's gameplay looks like how I play jett , having no idea when and how to use her ability. I'm just relying on my aim if I pop up then it's good but when I'm not feeling it I just play like a bot(Reyna main). Your videos help me understand the ability aspects of valorant. I watched many valorant video how to better your aim but your vod reviews really helps understand the decision making that's goes into the play.
i dont understand how to utilize this properly I'm certain I'm misunderstanding becasue everyone else seems to be benefitting from this but I just feel like i have to look away from where i should be aiming to not walk into a wall
I recently realized that while i can definitively improve my aim, i've focused too much on aiming and have neglected game sense for too long. Time to vod review myself i guess
Ok i have to ask this because i HAVE to know. In your introduction to your channel, around 0:57. What background song is that?
