@@linakudounah. Something already dominate tier 2 (vct japan) before join prx. Thats why he has lots of fans in japan n he also can speak lil bit of japanese words
6:49 small detail, but teams have been eyeing primmie for a looong time. The only reason he JUST got picked up was because talon managed to convince his parents to let him play professionally
He couldnt join a pro team becuase of his parents bro, he actually got offered a lot of times by tier 1 pro teams but he couldnt join becuase of his parents, the reason why his parents said yes now is talon is his country team

The last year of valorant aim and movement tech is literally just strafe while tapping 😂, thought it wouldn’t get crazier from there, guess i was wrong
@@suungjinu i did. went from getting single digit kills in death match to 20+, sometimes winning. At first it feels like you wont improve at all, but over time u will be able to one tap and hold angles effectively, u know where to take fights etc
@@charlie_541 sounds boring, but that's how it is. How do you think pros got so good? It's not pretty, it's not 'refreshing' but it's a pure grind, it's the most surefire way to improve.
Okay so yes this couch peak and crouch tapping during fights can work but depends on the rank. At the ranks of these pros, all of them are pre aiming head level so it throws them off. However, at lower ranks not many have the head level preaim. They usually are off a little and sometimes that crouch peak can line your head up with their pre aim. Just a thought
atp theres no difference in crouching or not crouching, if the crosshair placement is inconsistent then it will be random regardless, but is a good habit to learn for when or if you reach high elo. unless ofc you're silver then everybody will be aiming at the ground so mayb this would be bad lol
Coming from CS it's wild to me that some Val players completely unbind Crouch lol, ofc two different games but I've definitely noticed instances where you 100% benefit from crouching in Val.
For crouch movement - I can't remember where I saw this but there's a similar technique where you barely tap crouch in the middle of a wide swing, it basically tricks the opponent into thinking you're stopping and committing so they shoot, but by the time they've reacted, you already let go of crouch and you're swinging wider past their shots and you get an easy kill.
can’t wait for someone to bring me a coaching session of them holding down crouch for 4 seconds while spraying an entire mag and then saying “it’s what primmie does”
I mean if you don’t have aim crouching and spraying in vandal is detrimental and tap strafe is better so they do it. Crouching is better against enemies that are mechanically better and look for heads to throw them off. Gold/plats even diamonds often aim at the body so crouching is not effective enough.
basically when he reaches the deadzone he crouches for that time. he is always moving. as much as you can in this game while being to fire sometimes. so he is always moving and can shoot. crouching moves you but dosent have any shooting error added.
i noticed when the initiating gunfight crouch eggster does the same thing, and since starting to do that ive caught alot of people off guard and won more gunfights by them not expecting it
Aspas is the GOAT. Primmie is a good player and very promising, but comparing him to Aspas is a bit strange considering the few games he has as a professional.
Another thing that stands out is that a lot of times if he’s holding an angle, he often places his crosshair for an enemy wide peek (further from the edge of the wall where he knows someone might come from.) I tried this method and it just feels like people run straight into your bullet a lot of times and my headshot percentage has gone up a lot.
I actually have firing button binding to another key, and bind that exact key to crouch, so basically when I press that button, I will fire + crouch at the same time
Derke is known for his crouch peaks. He commits to the crouch shots almost every fight he takes even against multiple enemies, but he's really good at making readjustments when doing so it can be hard to notice.
Crouch peeks saves you from getting headshotted. Crouch peeking give you an even more peekers advantage, the more you move you dodge bullets. Crouch peeking forces you to always adjust your aim making it more accurate since it makes you ready to micro adjust
This is a common strat in silver except they don't strafe but they just bop up and down while spraying. Shits unmatched when I'm trying to hit headshots with my terrible aim.
Primmie was trialing for talon esports beginning of VCT pacific before split 1 2024, but never joined because of management being indecisive. Either way FrosT took a gamble signing Primmie after he finished his time at school.
Crouching into your peek to throw off your opponent’s aim was a CS thing too. Crouch spammers were so devious that they added crouch “fatigue” into the game 🤣
gratz on the razer bucks :P, primmie is a beast, not only he's incredibly fast at killing but also hard to hit and very thorough with his angle clearing
I want to point out that you said he’d only just now been picked up by an org and that even players at his level can take time to be approached by an org. Frankly, primmie has had multiple offers from multiple orgs, but he’s young enough that he needed his parents’s permission to play pro, which Talon somehow convinced them to give
This type of crouching in gunfights is very common in Destiny pvp which is a game I played a lot before Valorant. But it also doesn’t have the same movement mechanics as Valorant and overall is more movement based. Its cool to see someone in vct with that nostalgic gunfight style
BRO I started practicing this and I'm consistently dropping 38-40 every DM. Unfortunately I can't seem to translate the technique into ranked but I think I'll get it over time.
I HATE the people that are like "omg insta croucher" "you crouch in fights so you're bad", primmie is the perfect example of crouching not being bad but choosing when to do it. Sure his tactic is a bit extreme way of embracing crouching, but at the same time it also shows that crouching is just another form of movement to throw off people mid duel.
I tried the crouching thing and honestly it has it's own leaning curve. You basically have to relearn movement to some extent. He just makes it look so easy.
This crouch peak is very standard in classic CSGO gameplay, his previous CS experience really shows in his Valorant gameplay judging by his clean movement and aim style
That's how Suygetsu Aims As well. It also helps to reset recoil even faster than just side strafing. Good internet connection + Rapid Trigger keyboard can do wonders with this technique.
The funny thing about his movement is it's very similar to donk from cs. They both use the same type of style of moving and crouching and uncrouching to be much harder to hit. Of course other pros do this but the efficiency and precision of the movement is usually just much cleaner from both of them.
This type of movement with crouching during gunfights and prefiring has always existed in cs i think valorant just found out metas that were used 20 years ago
YES , but what if you swing an angle and crouch but the guy isnt where you tought he would be so the optimal move would be to move with a/d keys while adjusting the crossair but since we crouched to do the peak we are slowed at the beginning. So is it really a good thing to do ? I am a bit lost
I've been following primmie for 2 years and after looking back, he only started doing this like 7-8 months prior. I kinda noticed something in his gameplay changed, but I was never sure what it was. I knew he liked to crouch peek, but I have never noticed he crouched this much in between shots and I was wondering how no one seems to be able to hit him even tho he's playing in Radiant lobbies
I got this "spam crouch" thing from Eggster after watching a lot of his videos and have started to implement it within my gameplay, can absolutely guarantee I've been winning way more 1v2 gunfights due to me staying alive longer. Went from plat 2 to dia 3 in 2 weeks, if you're a player who wants to improve their overall gameplay mechanics- I would definitely suggest to try and practice crouching! still keep in mind that Spray Crouching is still something that will screw you over more than benefit, try finding the balance in strafing Whilst crouching a lil? I dunno how to properly put it into words :b Great video and goodluck in your grinds, gamers.
the problem is that while primmie crouch at the high level where people have great crosshair positioning, in lower elo if you croch you will be taking headshots everytime, as people are not very good and just aims at a lower level than normal
Jinggg's doing it for a meme way way before like binding the crouch button and fire button. It messes the the radiant's lobby since they all when for head level when fighting
5:47 Little detail but he actually saw Reyna’s arm there by the look of it, must’ve just not caught it. Still, this guy is a demon and will be fun to watch in upcoming VCT games.
this is old school cs 1.6 movement tech, but the way valorant feels that's why most people avoid it cause they commit to the crouch. this is def good tech, and good informative vid!

like, if u are in low elo, u dont even need to learn this skill, just continue playing and learning the basics first
as a plat player, crouching messes up so much the other people im playing against
Coming from CS it's wild to me that some Val players completely unbind Crouch lol, ofc two different games but I've definitely noticed instances where you 100% benefit from crouching in Val.
Fax I call this dude the Donk of Valorant because Donk abuses tap crouching in Esports and wins so many gunfights and clips so many multi kills

SEN: "why ranked demons don't go pro"
APAC: try me
bro got the donk crouch
Unbinding crouch is one of the most brain dead act ever
It’s one of those gold-diamond stupid suggestions. Every single pro or radiant crouches all the time.
It fixed my aim
I mean if you don’t have aim crouching and spraying in vandal is detrimental and tap strafe is better so they do it. Crouching is better against enemies that are mechanically better and look for heads to throw them off. Gold/plats even diamonds often aim at the body so crouching is not effective enough.

you can also bind ur crouch button to left click so when u shoot crouches for you so you can tap crouch and strafe
I saw what u referred to in the first few seconds and zander instantly came to mind. Glad that I was right about him doing that too :)
even TenZ complimented Primmie for his mechanics.
so what? everyone says good thing about other players

this is why i can’t wait for aspas vs primmie
But the teammates are also play the big factor.
It wont be as hype as you think. Playing VCT is way different than farming clips in ranked
Aspas >>
@@jorrr3962he’s already shown he can play well outside of just ranked
Aspas is the GOAT. Primmie is a good player and very promising, but comparing him to Aspas is a bit strange considering the few games he has as a professional.
Primmie is like that player that found out the formula of crouching, and just uses it against everyone.
Honestly I wonder if it's intentional, it almost looks like a fidgeting habit
it’s like what donk is doing in cs rn
Disclaimer: this does not help in gold where everyone is aiming at the floor. You're just bringing your head closer to their crosshair.
Another thing that stands out is that a lot of times if he’s holding an angle, he often places his crosshair for an enemy wide peek (further from the edge of the wall where he knows someone might come from.) I tried this method and it just feels like people run straight into your bullet a lot of times and my headshot percentage has gone up a lot.
GOATpai with the sponsorship?? SHEESH. (As as always, great content Dopai, and W editing Ulric).
OMG IS THAT MY FAVORITE BADDIE!!!!!!
I actually have firing button binding to another key, and bind that exact key to crouch, so basically when I press that button, I will fire + crouch at the same time
But when you burst or spray, u will be full crouched and get 1 tapped 😂 I try it so I know that
@@itsCynos i still keep my right click as normal firing tho, so i can still spray or run and gun when needed
Crouching while contacting to buy time for a micro adjustment is genius. This guy is different.
If its Sena approved, then im implementing it
Derke is known for his crouch peaks. He commits to the crouch shots almost every fight he takes even against multiple enemies, but he's really good at making readjustments when doing so it can be hard to notice.
Fr. Watching this primmie, remind me to the way derke abuse crouch in game. Like derke almost always crouch in gunfight but still has a good movement

ive seen wo0t do the little crouch while strafing too
Really well made video with techniques and knowledge that can actually make you instantly better at the game if you do it correctly ❤

he prolly just use raw accel
I watched this entire game but i never noticed this detail wow, i finally get what the hype around primmie was
I’m kinda surprised you didn’t mention his holding angle technique, he might be the best in terms of holding angle
Eggster also does this alot
true, i copied how Eggster was clearing corners before
the goat egg
best player of all time I think
That's valid. I haven't watched much of Eggster personally
Next video idea

5:47 the enemy gun barrel is visible
also you can see it from DRX flashback. he has exactly same movement just like him
fast crouching would be the new movement trend.
Was trying to gate keep this information smh smh.. But love the video man, keep it up! ❤
