Diamond Chamber VOD Review: Ascent Mistakes & Plan to Hit Immortal

What's up tricksters and tricksetas and welcome to another tier three subv review. Today we're doing live coaching

with our friend Fuego. He is a diamond three chamber main playing on Ashente. So today we're going to see how to play

Ascent, how to play chamber and what he can do better to rank him from diamond trenches. Now uh I had a better vote but

audio was lost. Okay, updated vote. I have gotten back to my peak diamond tree the last couple days. This is a win, but

it goes to 1816. I'm really looking for better ways I can play chamber to secure rounds in games to further progress to

my goal, which is immortal. Uh background, I started playing development a couple years ago, took a

yearish break and started playing about one to two months ago. The plan is to try and hit immortal. I pick diamond

three episode 8 or something like that. My peak now is diamond one. I usually play duelist ra chamber sky or fade.

Listen, when it comes to this roster right here, considering how many hours you put in the game, you know, like uh

you you should definitely limit yourself. I mean like uh raise chamber sky and fade really share like

completely different like uh play styles and you need to stick to something that actually works uh works for you know

like basically playing rage chamber sky or fade is very counterproductive. Yeah, you're going to learn more about the

game but uh practically on all three of you know on these agents you need to change your play style and how you play

the game drastically and which guns you abuse and which positions you abuse etc etc. It's coming back. We made we have

made huge improvements the last couple weeks making it back to my okay uh problems. I think one of my biggest

struggles is taking side properly whether is retake or entering as a do list. I

feel pretty confident with chamber especially on a send but I know there is still much to learn. I struggled with

clutching which has gotten better. I stopped playing Omen because I have 20 matches played with Omen. This second I

have listen 20 games with Omen is like nothing you know like right now I'm learning to play SOA. I literally have

like a 13 games with SOA. Yes, we have like a 54% win rate with

somewhat, you know, positive stats, but rather, you know, you can you can never truly know if an agent is good or bad

for you unless you spend at least 50 ranked matches on that agent. Especially on a character such as Omen. Like with

Omen, like there's so many things to learn, like so many executes. You need to develop a feeling for timings,

feeling for when to move in, when to move out, when to take space, when to go out, like when when to do this, execute,

that execute. And I, you know, in 20 m, like there's no way that you learned every single play and every single

timing for every play, but whatever. You know, I feel like like I suck at knowing when to rotate. I

spent a lot of time being the last alive. Also very inconsistent game to game. Okay, we'll see that. Uh, heads of

Hyperlow X3. Uh, the mouse is absolutely dog [ __ ] Like G502 is a mouse that I generally recommend players to change

immediately as soon as they see this [ __ ] Like it's a really bad mouse for for FPS games and uh something lighter

and better is going to switch. Like usually what I recommend players when they're switching from G502 is Razer

Viper Wii for Pro. Most of the players find the most amount of success on that mouse mechanically once they switch from

G502. So you can consider maybe changing that in the future and that's it. Monitor

runs at 240 Hz. Uh okay, you know like that's you know bare minimum for Valerant is like 144 as long as you have

240 Hz monitor. It doesn't matter which brand it is. Like it is not an excuse why you're not radiant or like why

you're not immortal. at least in in in in in this game. So like uh the brands matter, you know, like Zawi and Asus are

10 times better than any other brand uh in terms of motion clarity specs and everything, but

you know, it's not something you need to change immediately. Resolution, okay, we're playing on a stretch probably uh

mouse pad, artic zero, excel pad, okay, settings we're going to see right now. Uh, when it comes to your setup, the

only the only thing I would change is G502 100%. Like, and I I will switch it to

>> Welcome, Fuego. I I don't know why the [ __ ] am I speaking to the stream when you're here? [laughter]

[gasps] You there? >> Was it? >> Okay. Okay. Uh, listen, I was just

talking about your set gear like uh uh I I would ginger mouse. uh if you got some backup money or or in the next like two

to to four months like you you should consider it like G502 is generally really bad

>> for aiming and for FPS games uh it's way too heavy as well way too outdate like everything is bad about the mouse

>> that's the OG mouse that people were buying because it was the most promoted by Logica back in the days and and

before the super light and uh it's just a you know it same as if you buy like a steel series rival in big 2020 26 like

Rival was back in the days like one of the staples for CS and CSGO but now it's just you know [ __ ] Rival bro like

there's better options and what what what I would recommend you I'm going to screen share you so that uh you you can

see what I'm talking about and you can also like um um mute me just mute mute the sound so you don't listen to music

in background uh so basically like uh uh uh the G5 uh the Razer Viper V4 V4 is the first thing I would try if I was

you. And >> I think it is not that expensive for a mouse. Like it's it's okay. And it's

it's a it's a pretty it's not a similar shape to G502, but when you're switching like you're not going to feel that much

of a difference in your hands as if you maybe switch to like I don't know, ninjutsu sora or something like that.

Everything else is fine. Like you know, none of this is the reason why you're not immortal. Uh so yeah uh our first

goal is definitely going to be making immortal player out of you. And after this like uh uh View, I will share with

you like some kind of an aim training uh and general training that you're going to follow to get there. You're also

going to get private coaching videos for all of the problems that we see right here on the tracker and in the VOD as

well. But right now we're just going to focus on the most obvious stuff that you need to change and that you need to do

better. Sorry that I didn't do this review earlier. I was on a vacation plus uh I just didn't have any time like to

to to do it. >> Uh when it comes to the tracker like you are putting good numbers like in these

last four acts and I want you to keep it up like this. Uh obviously you don't need to go this hard but you know a bare

minimum for for ranking up in Valerant is always uh just three rank games per day every

single day. Uh and as long as you can put those numbers like you should be fine. You should be ranking up and

improving as a player. Uh now another thing I would recommend you to do especially if you have this many hours

to put in an act uh make a second account and uh do this method. So on this account play every single ranked

game that you want to play during that specific day. On this second account that you make, you're only going to play

one ranked match per day when you feel 100% ready to perform and to play Valerant. Like you feel that you're

mentally ready, physically ready, like you feel that the next match is going to be a win and that you have no excuses

why you are not hitting the shots or why you are missing something. One match on that account like on that account you

can track like how you perform at like let's say your best and on this account you can track how you perform on

average. And also I'm going to share with you like a private coaching video that's going to explain like uh why

having two accounts is really great in Valerant and why you should be simultaneously grinding on two accounts.

Uh now we are definitely a bit stuck in this diamondish uh elo considering how many hours you put uh you know in

general in the game but you did have a bit of a break so you needed to come back to the to the game. Uh when it

comes to your stats, like pretty much everything is suboptimal. Like there's there's a lot of problems in your

gameplay that we're going to need to see like uh within the VOD. Like you know, this tracker doesn't tell us that much

about you as a player. Like you have a problem with the damage you deal, with the KD, with the KSD, with staying

alive, >> pretty much everything. mechanical stats are okay, but they, you know, they don't

paint the full picture because like uh anyone can have like a high headshot percentage if you're just going for the

head shots, but you're still dying like a like a potato. So, we're going to see what's what's actually the problem here

and why you're not able to output at least like let's say one KD, 140 ADR, and 75% KST, which is like the optimal

numbers, uh or slightly above average to have a positive win rate. Uh now when it comes to other stats like yes your

clutch percentage is really low. Uh unfortunately the best way to improve clutch percentage is through some

extensive coaching and like uh through a lot of clip reviews and we need to review the sequences like where you die

in a 1 v one one v2. Uh maybe in this we're going to get into those sequences and we'll see how you play these uh uh

scenarios in the games and what you can do better. But this is something that you can definitely focus on alone. And

I'm going to share with you some blueprints like how can you self-re these rounds like how can you find

solutions for the problems that you're experiencing during the clutch u uh moments. Now when it comes to the first

bloods and first deaths this is also bad ratio like generally speaking like you know if you have like let's say 500

first bloods you should have maximum 400 first deaths in rank solo cube. So just these initial DS init initial contacts

that you're taking can be a bit better. Usually what's the problem here is like how you take the fights, how you

position yourself, which setups you're using, how you're fighting around your teammates. That's usually the main main

issue for the players. He has abomination. Like you're dying way too many times alone. We need to see why is

that the case especially with the chamber like you know you have a teleport. You're playing operator

probably more than anything else. Like I don't know how we're not uh outputting better numbers there. Uh and attacker

side, same [ __ ] Defender side, same [ __ ] Okay, we need to focus on both attack and defense and see what we

what you can do better there. When it comes to the agents, like uh this might be a huge problem for you. Like you're

doing a toz challenge and I would not wish that even to my worst [ __ ] enemy. Like like I tried it in January.

It's not really the the the funniest thing to do in in Valerant. Like in Valerant, consistency is everything.

Consistency what you do, what you play, how you play the game, and you always want to play on your strengths and what

works the best for you. You want to you you know you can be jack of all trades in Valerant and you should somewhat be

the jack of all trades where you understand like uh individual utility usage like uh what this agent can do,

what that agent can do and that type of stuff. But you cannot be maning 30 agents in this game. Like one thing that

you're going to do for the next eight weeks, because I'm going to make some hell of an eightweek plan uh for you,

you're only going to lock yourself maximum onto three characters. And after this view, we'll see which characters

you should be playing. just right off the bat like uh chamber is definitely going to stay 100% because with the

chamber you have decent numbers in 59 matches and this can just be better you know uh when it comes to other agents I

don't know let's foresee your gameplay how you play the game and maybe some agents can be a solution for you to

improve faster and get better at the game faster when it comes to the maps like generally

sunset is the map where you perform like the best and you you exist on the map. Ascent is like okay and the biggest

problems for you are like summit and split like on these two maps like you're you really don't exist whatsoever. So

what what I would really focus on if I was you for the next eight weeks is paying attention my rank playbook for

Lotus Summit and Split and essentially just getting better on these three maps uh uh right here. Now, when it comes to

like loadouts, uh this is also bad obviously because your stats are not that good in general,

but pistol rounds should be the best. Pull by number two, semi number three, and eco number four. That that should be

the order of the rounds here. And uh the biggest problem for you right now is definitely like how much output you have

in pistol rounds and eco rounds like this. This needs to be fixed in the next eight weeks. And once again, I'm going

to share with you some private coaching videos that are going to help you with these rounds, how to play them better,

and what you should be focusing on uh to get to just have better output. Like, you know, in eco rounds, you need to

have at least one KD and pistol rounds need to be better because you know how you play. Pistol rounds are the most

important rounds in Valerant because pistol round guarantees you a second round guarantees you a good economy for

the round number three and four. So like it's a very you need to have a good start of your games like you need to be

able to win at least 60% of your pistol rounds on both attackers and defender side in rank solo Q. Uh when it comes to

loadouts uh phantom versus vendal really doesn't matter to you like you're performing

equally with both weapons. So like uh you can just play the weapon that you're most comfortable with. Uh you can

definitely put a bit more focus on operator considering you're playing jet and chamber mainly like uh you know you

have like 1,600 kills with vendal and phantom and only 200 with operator like there should be a bit better balance

there like you know you can probably save for the OP more play OP more on a defender side. Uh and out of all of

these weapons like what you're underusing the most is definitely stinger shorty judge outlaw. uh like

these weapons need to go a bit higher and you can probably play them a bit more and implement some strategies with

these weapons. Odin, I mean like Odin, like if you see an opportunity to kill the enemies or the walls, like why not?

And to stop their executes when they're flooding the sides with tons of uh uh tons of utility, but other than that,

everything else is okay. Warden is now in the game, but generally speaking, like just from the first experience of

the Warden, I just don't feel the weapon like like it is really out of place for 2900 credits. And uh I just

think that you should, especially if you're playing chamber and jet, uh there's just no reason to almost ever

get a warden in your in in your games. But we'll see. Like the weapon is still fresh. Like we'll see what type of

strats uh we can get with that. uh we get we can get with that weapon. Uh now uh just a few questions for you before

we start. Uh first question is like uh where are you from? How old are you and how much free time do you have to play

development per day? >> I am 24. >> Mhm.

>> I play I play about I play Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Usually it's like for a couple hours during the

week and then like all day Saturday. >> Okay. >> Um and I'm from the US, Colorado.

>> Okay. Okay, great. Uh, we already saw the settings. What would you say is like your biggest

strength and biggest weakness right now? Like from your standpoint like like from your view?

>> I don't think I have one honestly. Maybe Yeah, I don't I can't think of one off the top of my head. I think after

watching most of your videos, maybe maybe the the TP part of it on chamber, you know, peeking an angle, tping to

another off angle, getting a second pick, whatever, whatever it may be when they're when they're attacking, but I

can't really think of anything else. >> Okay. Okay. Okay. Uh, and >> one thing though, I'm gonna I have to go

back to work here in a couple minutes, so I just wanted to let you know I'm gonna be

>> No, all all good. All good. like I I can do this alone and then you can watch it and then I'm going to share everything

with you. Uh just there just just a quick questions. Uh and what do you think you struggle with the most? Like

like when you play the games like what's the first thing you will be like, "Oh, this is really [ __ ] me up in these

situations. I [ __ ] suck. >> Staying alive, bro." >> Okay. [laughter] Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.

Fair enough. Fair enough. Uh now, uh share your screen on Discord. going to practice range. I just want to test you

a bit quickly and then I move into the water view and you can do your work. >> Yeah, give me one second. Let me load it

all up real quick. Oh, I got a new message. Be issued another play against

Easy, bro. Easy. Like we're going to get five of these today, bro. Uh how do you know when I will perform

good? purely based on your feeling, you know, like maybe maybe you play two ranked matches, you know, you do a

warm-up and then in that third match, like you're probably going to perform the best because you're already warmed

up, you're already in the game and and you know, that's a good rule of thumb. Like if you feel tired, don't play on

that second account. If you feel like uh I don't know, you feel uh like the shots are not hitting that day, you feel a bit

inconsistent there, [ __ ] it. Throw it in the bin. like don't play on that second account, play on your main on the first

account, whatever on which you're spam spamming the games. Okay, let me see this.

Good, good, good. >> Listen, uh we're going to be very quick with this. I just want you to load up

medium bots. Uh the first time you're going to do them while standing completely still and the second time

you're going to do them while moving around. You can use phantom or vendal. It's really up to you.

Okay. Now, you're going to do the same thing, but you're going to move around. Strafe left and right.

Okay, straight off of the bat, I mean, I'm going to see the void as well and see how you aim in general, but uh uh

you're dragging your mouse way too much across the mouse pad. like I can I can feel it that that that your shots are

you know your flicks are not explosive at all uh when it comes to speed. We [clears throat] need to upgrade it a bit

there. >> Uh microcorrections like don't exist for you like generally you shoot like kind

of blindly based on your feeling more. So we'll see we'll see in the va like what you should be working on and you're

going to get some aim training anyways. Like uh I have like 100 private routines so there's going to be one that is good

for you. Uh now show me your settings. Go press escape. Go to general. Uh, how much DPI is that on the mouse?

>> 1200. >> 400. >> No, 1,200.

>> 1200. Okay. Uh, okay. My guy customized everything like [laughter] scroll down a bit.

Uh, down down. Always show inventory. Turn that option on. Uh, in in user interface, fourth

option. Very good. I'll scroll down a bit. Okay. Show corpses on.

Go to controls. Scroll down. Okay. Equipment.

Listen. For total zoom level, you need to have some kind of a button there. It can literally be anything. Third option

from above. Uh, left alt, mouse wheel up, mouse wheel down. Uh, Z XCV,

anything that you can press with your thumb is okay. So, what what you know, you you scope in with operator. This

option allows you to switch between 1x and double zoom however and whenever you want without needing to go in, in out.

The less key inputs is always better. Like you always want to be as efficient as possible with everything that you're

doing in the game. Whichever game you're playing like whether it is deadlock, valerant, CSGO, it doesn't matter.

Efficiency is the most important. Especially efficiency in keybinds, movement, mechanics, utility usage. So,

especially if you want to, you know, play chamber as one of your main agents, like it's very very important that uh

you have this option enabled and that you use it when you're clearing the angles, when you're holding certain

positions where maybe the scope is going to be, you know, blocking your vision. And uh you just need to have it uh auto

re-enter scope. Turn that off. I don't know if it is off or no, it is off. Okay. Uh scroll down.

Uh scroll down. Scroll up a bit. Uh, put equip spike on five instead of four.

Communication. Uh, tactical calls in the chat. Turn that on.

Go to video. Scroll down. Uh, quality.

Okay. Audio uh voice over VL voice over. Turn that on. So Cipher

is telling you some stupid joke. Your teammates are talking at the same time. Yeah, your teammates are talking at the

same time. Your teammates are loud and clear and Cipher is muted or muffled a bit.

>> Uh now, uh go to video stats. Go to input latency. Scroll down. You see there? Very good.

No, no, no, no, no. The paragraph input latency. Yeah. Enable everything text only.

Press escape. I don't even see it like this. Just a second.

Mhm. Okay. Uh, you can disable all of that. Now go into lobby.

Show me the ping on the servers. Okay. Okay. Good. You can start sharing the screen. Uh everything else I'm just

going to cover like uh as I go through the through the volume. you. It was nice meeting you. Enjoy your day. And uh as

tomorrow I'm probably going to upload this on YouTube and I'm going to share with you like everything that you should

be doing and what's going to be the plan for you for the next eight weeks straight. Okay.

>> All right. Sounds good. Nice to meet you. >> Great man. Same same. See you next time.

Bye-bye. >> See you later. >> Okay. That was Fuego. Unfortunately,

he's not going to be here because work work. Uh I know I'm 20 minutes behind in the stream, but yeah, the well community

is so soft as a whole. The fact that people generally forfeit matches is insane to me. Shouldn't even been an

option in ranked. Uh the overtime option to forfeit should exist.

But the problem is like how the overtimes are played in Valerant. You know like playing one round on

attacker side and defender side is not enough. to decide who the [ __ ] is going to win a match that went into 24 rounds.

I just don't know how how Riot Games allowed this system in VCT

for the last like six years. It it should be a minimum of a best of six. Like basically you need four rounds in a

row to win the overtime because one round like what in one round I can die from a from some pixel

[ __ ] like I I I can you know there there's so so many RNG factors in the game that that one round cannot decide

who's going to win the match that went into 24 rounds. Do you know what is like you play the match 45 minutes just to be

decided by two rounds. Okay, seems fair to me. Uh, would you use the same mouse kits for X3 Super

Strike? Yeah, it's the same same like Magik unusual way sports. Okay, let's start with this one.

Love for India. Love. Love for India always. >> You have good taste, my friend.

Which ring did you coach the most? Uh, Ascendant. Ascendant and diamond players 100% bro.

Like like literally out of the 6,500 players I coached in the last like 60 years.

Ascendant and Diamond is probably like uh I would say 50%. 50 to 60%. while everything else is

like, you know, in that 40%ish range. Okay.

Sold out. No, no, no. Like I'm I'm not sponsored by by Unusual Way Sports like uh ah sold out. [laughter] I mean I'm

I'm sold out like by the unusual way sports. Uh Corp. Corp is fine as well. Okay. So

you are fuego my friend on ascent. Before the game even begins, you need to have some kind of a plan how you want to

play this match with your team composition against the enemy team composition and how you want to play the

map as per usual. So a site is your default site. Number one priority. Number two priority is the B site.

Number three mid. So in the first four to six rounds, you want to try doing five minute executes onto the B site and

onto the A site together as a pack. No reason to lurk, no reason to flank, no reason to fake, no no reason to play

alone in these early rounds. Just test the strengths between your team, enemy team, and try to learn as much as you

can during these four to six rounds, like how the enemies position, how do they play on the map, what type of a

setup they use, etc., etc. Now, what you pressure early early on on ascent really depends on the team comps. Like here for

example in our team comp it's a pretty standard rank team composition that can fight anywhere and we really don't have

any specific problems but we also don't have any specific solutions as well like you know we can do we can take mid we

can fight for a we can do a split blit like we can do whatever with this team comp but we don't you know we don't have

a single stun proper flesh and and and stuff like that When it comes to the enemy team comp, this is far more

important for you to read. So, Hilljoy is probably going to be the B player most of the rounds and her setup is

going to be the alarm bot here, turret on the site. And we we can anticipate that like in at least nine out of 12

rounds on the attacker side. Uh Iso is really going to be an unknown factor because we don't see Iso in rank that

much. So, we don't know how Isizo is going to play. Club is probably going to be a mid player in enormous amount of

rounds because she needs to smoke both B and A. So need she needs to start around, you know, a short market a lot

of the times. Uh fade is also a bit unknown. We can expect early reveals in Aman and

Bmin and be ready to destroy them and also Phoenix can also be unknown. But generally what we can expect against

this enemy team comp, they're probably going to try to fight a bit more for the space in aan and be because of the

phoenix molly, phoenix flesh, iso debuff. They have a, you know, pretty stacked up comp to fight uh to fight for

the space. So here like you know if if you're going a you need to expect a molly here a flesh here and create a

setup to dodge it or to counter it which is pretty much you know every round you will have to do this jump them silently

here and then from this position peak once your teammates are here or once the enemy Phoenix drops a flesh towards your

allies. If the enemy smoke you off here you can also put just a teleport drop down and try to support your teammates

like that. In B main, you'll just have to communicate to your allies and pay

attention to what the [ __ ] enemies are doing. Because if the Phoenix drops a molotov here and then drops a flesh, you

know, we're kind of cooked. If you see that the enemies are playing aggro in the Bin, feel free to use your teleport

early on so that you can maybe, you know, take more space aggressively with your

jet rain or others that are running you down and you're still somewhat safe to take the fights and to support your

allies. Now, when it comes to how you should play against this team comp, generally like the best idea is three

rounds in a row, you do a fiveman push onto the A site and then in a fourth round, we can fake B and go A again. Why

why should we fake B? Because KJ is going to play most of the rounds on B. Usually, you want to fake the site on

which enemy sentinel was playing at that uh at that moment of time. So in this first one with the chamber you have like

a lot of buy options like first one is like classic light shell two head hunters and a trademark.

Second one is like bandit and a trademark. Third one is six head hunters and a trademark. Which buy options you

should go for really depends on how confident you feel in the head hunters and what you prefer as a player. You

know which pistol works the best for you and that's it. The most optimal option right now for ascent is like bandit. You

have 32 bullets on any range on this map. One head shot is a kill. 39 damage to the body. Like three shots in the

body. Enemies are dead if they're if they're with a with a ghost and sheriff or a bandit. Uh and uh like you just

have more options to fight multiple enemies and to scale up with your teammates. And you know, you're not

going to end up with a classic and without a shield if you whiff your shots. Now, uh, trademark for the

fiveman push should always go here. And we're just running it down. We should go up. Be ready for the Phoenix and Isizo

utility. And on the contact, we swing out. Take space. Most amount of times as a chamber, you should be using your

teleport here to scale up with your teammates onto the A site because one perk of the chamber that other agents

don't have in Valerant is your mega safe closing the switch for your teammates. And no matter what type of a diabolical

setup enemies have on A and B, you can always close the switch, TP out, reset yourself, then push with your teammates

again. So in this round, we should be scaling up towards the switch. Closing the switch, trying to get into this

position. From this position, taking the fights with the enemies and with our teammates. If anything bad happens to

you, reveal, you get revealed, flash molotov. You can just TP out, reset yourself, and then go for another one.

>> You need to start these rounds like basically this is why so many players struggle in

the lobbies below below like immortal like before before the game starts. You already need to anticipate

something. You need to be present. You can you cannot go to piss and come like you know 5 seconds before

the round starts like already based on the team comps and the map that you're playing you can somewhat know what the

enemies are going to do like we know that in this round like enemies are going to overstack

a short and a sight because they probably have killjoy on B like 80% of times that happens in the first round in

rank solo queue especially below immortal where players are mega repetitive they saw somewhere on YouTube

that killjoy should be playing B site with a specific setup and they're going to stick to that setup no matter what.

Here we know there's there's Phoenix players like 80% of times in the first round in rank solo Q below immortal are

going to play in the aiming with a flesh cooked up and a molotov.

Very easy setup to counter especially if enemies don't drop a one-way smoke. You just go up, wait for the flash, wait for

your teammates to get a contact. Bum, bum, bum, kill the phoenix, kill the Iso, and everyone is happy. So, you

should be doing this like, you know, this can be like the first mistake you're not doing in the in this match,

which is supporting your teammates from this position as they're scaling up through the Amen.

Now one thing that we immediately notice is that uh you know you're not really present at the start of the matches and

you need need to learn how to start the games a bit better. Rank playbook can be a huge help. On my second YouTube

channel you have like 210 free reviews rather 210 free reviews. We covered almost everything about every map about

like 210 different team compositions. So many things you can learn already. Okay, good ref.

>> Listen, in in in early rounds, specifically in early rounds, when you're doing these fiveman executes,

your main focus should always be playing with your most aggressive teammates that are in front of you. Nothing else should

be your main priority. Here, if your SOA So, we took this kill. You see that your SOA is running it down sideways like

this. Your only priority is refragging this guy or saving his life by playing together with him. Nothing else can be

your main priority. So here, [ __ ] the orbs. [ __ ] everything else.

You need to scale up, drop a teleport, and be ready to take this fight no matter what. Huge problem in the lobbies

below radiant in general is that players only see blood in their eyes. They overheat. They run it down. They they're

not paying attention the spacing between them and their allies and they're taking away too many individual fights. You

need to fix that problem by just learning how to path faster with your most aggressive teammates and to support

them at least using their lives to get a simple refrag. Infinity man. So we cannot lose our soba like this.

And here we should send it 100%. Like first of all, Killjoy still probably didn't rotate that fast towards the a

site. So in the worst case scenario here, we are fighting 3v2. We still have the smokes down. Smokes

are going to expire in the next like seven to 8 seconds. Raina maybe has a flesh. You have a

teleport. We should not be afraid here to go out and try killing these two enemies. Especially because we know that

the fade is stuck on the right side. >> Okay, Fade is even dead now. You should just run it down. Job done.

Now in in any case scenario, we're fighting 3v2. Ezra scaling out. Let's do it. Listen, like

never pull out information in rank solo Q out of your ass. All always based how you play the game, based on your

teammates positioning, based on where they're looking at at that moment of time and based on like uh how they are

positioned. So you know like if even even if you want to rotate here you know even if your idea is like okay enemies

right now right now like uh you know probably rotated there's like both clove and

killjoy on the bomb site you cannot rotate if two of your teammates

are chilling in the a main getting ready to go out even if you tell them hey guys we should rotate whenever you give some

kind of a comment in rank solo queue. You you you cannot stick to that com to that plan before you see that your

teammates want to execute it. So even in even in high lobies like people don't listen. People are just way too

tunnel visioned. People autopilot a lot. They don't give a [ __ ] anymore about Valerant. So you tell your teammates,

"Hey guys, let's rotate." You're not pulling a rotation until you see that your Raina and Claude are getting out of

this smoke and they they want to rotate. If they're still sticking here, [ __ ] it. Repeat it

one more time, guys. Let's rotate. But if they move out, you move out as well. You cannot lose the spacing with your

allies because you had a plan that you don't know if your teammates are going to execute and if they're going to

actually follow you up here. Like we should have had a TP here. Okay, guys. Let's rotate. Okay, you don't want to

rotate. No problem. I have a teleport. I can bait the [ __ ] out of you. Go for the reflex. Reset myself. Then go for a

second refrag. And that's it. >> Who you got waiting? T or PRX? I put

PRX, I think, to top up that group. So, I really hope that's going to

happen. >> [laughter] >> But PRX is I don't know like they they

they go through the playoffs always you know always but sometimes they lose some of these group matches like in so I I

don't know like we'll see uh I was talking about forfeiting in general is not so much after overtime. No. Yeah.

Like listen listen like uh I absolutely believe that video games competitive games would be 10 times better if uh if

a surrender option did not exist 1 million%. Yes, there's like some games that you're

going to lose no matter what you know but you you never know. Like you literally never know like uh I I'm going

to give you Deadlock example the video game from Valve. That game doesn't have a forfeit system yet.

I have won every single game where one or two of my teammates left the game. Four versus six and five versus six. If

the surrender option was in the game, my teammates would probably surrender that match and I would not have a chance to

play it until the end. and it just [ __ ] up with the mentality. >> Okay, listen. Whenever you have a

teleport with yourself, especially if your teammate that you're refragging already died when it comes to playing

these type of fights, >> you swing out. The swing was okay. You know, we needed to take a fight here

because we got the info about the enemies on the rafters. We also have a teleport. But in a fight like this, you

only stick to one bullet and instantly TP out. Especially Especially if your last teammate also

is in the a map. Like you never want to commit to the fights when you have a chamber teleport unless you're fighting

with multiple teammates and you just want to play a basic refree game. Here you already lost your club. Club is

dead. You go for this. This is the moment of time where you're already teleporting away.

You have 15 HP. No problem. We have Raina in the main. You're still controlling this round. The worst

mistake you can do when you're playing chamber is overcommitting to the fights when when uh you have a teleport with

yourself. Like TP is just one bullet. TP is just one burst fire, one shot. unless the enemies are, you know, not looking

at you or they're using utility and you catch a very good timing to fight them. But when when you're taking this type of

fights with a teleport, literally just you're just doing this >> and that's it.

>> One enemy remaining. He could have positioned better for a teleport buddy like you know like uh he

put a TP here in this corner like he could have swung this angle also like this

and anyways like whenever whenever like uh you know you're pushing uh a site with a teleport TP should

always be here. So this teleport still allows you to scale up a to play around the generator to play in this corner to

push garden and to play in the short as well. And it is not visible from a potential

enemies flank and lurk. You know there's like one out of 20 rounds where enemies are going to be on a flank and lurk. And

if you put a TP like this, you go out, you know, there might be an enemy

staring at your face already. Now, this is a very poor way of playing the just just in the first round, we

already saw five or six things that you can do better. Scaling up with the teammates can be better. You lost the

spacing with almost every ally that you played with. uh setup can be better. Teleport usage

overcommitting to the fight with a teleport. Another mistake. Uh not following what your most aggressive

teammates are doing three three times in a row. And number five, we're not ready for the enemy team comp setup. Like it's

it's mega common. Like even even bronze players are using a flesh with a phoenix in the aiming area of the map. And we

need to be ready for that [ __ ] Now you know the whole fate of this round is in the hands of your Raina.

Do they really want to trust this Raina and Diamond like what she's going to do in this one?

You definitely don't. >> Here we should definitely go A again. You know like uh we know that Kiljo is

definitely B. Uh we know that uh uh what enemy Iso and Phoenix are approximately going to do in this round like the

easiest skill that we can get in this round is like uh in the a main against the Phoenix that is going to go for a

flesh like you can just get you know a few head hunters trademark. Let's write it down. I don't know. Just five

minutes. [laughter] >> Hulk. Hulk's green dong. Bro, is that

the name of the arena? >> Like all of these kills here are free kills for you.

This Iso and the Phoenix as well. like you you know what they did in the previous round and we should be playing

this round based on information that they got from the previous round. Like probably the main mistake and the main

thing that you can abuse against the players that are below immortal is that they are way too repetitive below

immortal tree. Like players have a very shallow playbooks, very shallow setups. like they love to abuse one, two, three,

four, five things 24/7 in a pretty similar way and it's very easy to read them here. Okay, before the

round even starts, let's put a trademark there. Hey guys, let's go a again. Silent step here and you just wait. Wait

for the drone. Wait for the flesh. Uh-huh. Is here. Bomb bomb. Two free picks for you.

Close. Close. Close. Close. >> Yep. >> A jock. I can go a

>> You should never be a gel in rank solo queue. It's too tiring. It is a lot of times your teammates are not not going

to listen to you. But in the first four rounds, four to six rounds, you should be leading your teammates at least on a

macro level, what they should do and where should they go. Like giving them at least some kind of a plan that makes

sense based on the previous rounds, based on on the average players tendencies in rank solo queue and based

on economy of course and you know team compositions. So here we know that Phoenix and Isa are playing aggressively

in the aer of the map. We know that Hil is a B player. We know that enemies are playing a bonus round with [ __ ] weapons.

Why do we have Raina at top mid? Why are you going top mid as well? And why are we contesting the enemies on the

B set at all? This should be a fast climbing push on A again, which is going to be far more unpredictable rather than

going B. Uh and far better when enemies are recon on on on ascend like on B. said they have just far more options to

kill you on timings from some close-range angles and setups. But what what the [ __ ] are we doing right now?

>> Jet, pick up bomb and go. >> I mean, yeah, like Aha. So So we're doing a fake in the

third bonus round. Like this is something you should never want to do ever.

Like you the best pattern of pushing in rank solo Q is pushing the same site three rounds in a row and then in a

fourth round doing the fake in the first four rounds and the fourth round like no matter if you're playing the fourth like

eco round bonus round like half by round whatever you have really high chance of winning that round because players in

rank solo Q over rotate a lot and when you apply the pressure only on one site consistently

they're more prone to rotate towards that site. here. This fake is okay. You know, pro probably we can win this

round. But first of all, we're using a strategy like this in a round that we should be able to win anyways by just

playing a pure refra game with default utility. And second of all, like uh we are risking winning such an easy round

where the enemies are bonusing by doing a fake. You know, right now your SOA can die, your clo can die alone. Uh then you

end up in a 5v3 enemies pick out the weapons from the clo and sova and around we're complicating a round that doesn't

need to be complicated. You complicate rounds when you're in some kind of a disadvantage or you condition the

enemies to think in a specific way. >> I'm just going to bait out util here. >> I don't know what you're hiding from

here. Like I mean no matter what first of all fate never did any early reveals in a map. Second of all, every single

reveal that Fate can do here is not visible from this position. From this position, from this position,

like you really don't need to start uh this passively if you're going a because we're just losing the timing to scale up

into the aiming area of the map. And also you don't hear [ __ ] you know, like what's what's very

important when when when you're doing a fake is that you're a bit closer to the choke point

or which you're faking. So that you know, like if if this is Phoenix decide to rotate and they they make steps like

this, that is a timing for you to start moving in, start clearing angles and taking the space. You you you're going

to hear them in the garden on the site. You're going to know exactly where they went and whether and if they cut the

noise at some moment of time. >> And this is exactly the problem you know like uh first of all like the first

problem of this fake is who should fake the site. The site for which we we are faking

should always be faked by one dualist initiator and controller smokes while the rest of the team is taking the space

on the opposite part of the map. Second problem of this fake is like why are we faking in a anti- bonus round? Enemies

have stingers [ __ ] weapons like we can just do a fiveman push and win the round. Like you will have a 80% higher

chances of winning this round if you just do a fiveman push with your team. 80%.

No reason to risk it. And the final mistake is obviously like how we started this fake. I mean like uh

right now you you have no info. You don't know if if this is and Felix did a rotation like we know nothing what's

happening in this amen and in the a short and not to mention that now we lost the whole time I mean like

if you're doing a fake you cannot be you know this far away from the aim and choke point at 115

your teams are faking B all already at around like 125. You should be close to the aim and drop

point. Like right now, we are 10 seconds late. >> You know, there there's no fake here.

>> Right now, enemies realize that, you know, you're not B. Kill push the beam in the map. She got a kill. No reason

for the enemies to over rotate. There's already probably like two or three enemies staring at your face on the A

set. Plus, you don't have smoker anymore. >> Good fight.

>> Okay. >> We should We should [ __ ] Listen. When you have a teleport with yourself, the

only time you should use your teleport to get out and to reset yourself is if you have some kind of a better win

condition to [ __ ] up the enemies and close a death that round. You're getting effed up by the enemy's utility like

darts, fleshes, smokes, molotovs, soa ultimate, then you can use this teleport. But in every other case

scenario where you're safe, plus you can fight with your teammates, you should use your teleport to pick one fight that

lasts 0.5 seconds like here. So your your idea is to play this post plant from the amen.

Okay, you can do that if you really want to do that, but it's always better to play with your teammates on the site if

you already have arena in this position. So if you really want to use this teleport and get out in a minute, just

you know, Phoenix flashed, he revealed his position. You know that he is on the tower.

Try to do that. Apply some pressure. Maybe you get a kill, maybe you don't. It doesn't

matter. Don't over commit to the fight. At least you use your teleport for something right now. Like you just left

your rain alone on the site. You gave enemies info that you're now in the aiming area of the map because you

teleported. where else you're going to teleport. You left your Raina alone on the site. If Raina picks up some

diabolical fight, she can easily die. Not to mention that the controller is still alive in the enemy team. This

glove is 100% going to smoke you off in the amen. And now, God help you peeking through

that smoke. God help your arena on the bomb set as well. like how you play your post like

completely depends how your team is going to play it and what are your win conditions. The only win condition we

have right now is like to apply the pressure so this SOA can flank Lur and can do whatever the hell this SOA want

to do and fighting with Arena. If you don't have any strong win conditions from the like passive win

conditions you should just position on the site for the post plants depending what your most aggressive teammates are

doing at that moment of time. If your teammates are playing pulseman from the I don't know like uh from the site on on

ascend you play this position you play this position you hold the this angle when the enemies are going from the

tower and that's it here we can just fight with ara raina brother let's swing together 3 2 1

let's [ __ ] them up >> [laughter] [gasps]

>> What the [ __ ] was that? Spam Hulks green dong. Okay, in a situation like this,

you never want to peek first from this smoke. First, you need to get the info about the enemy Phoenix. You need to to

let Ara take the first fight, the first contact. And then we swing out on the Raina's contact always.

>> Why is Phoenix tree bro as well? You know is holding this angle. Just be ready with your positioning and

your movement. to do this like in this type of a in this type of a reflex setup.

You just want to let your teammate take the first contact, hug the wall that is in front of you,

place your crosser towards the enemies, and be ready to just do this. >> Okay, at least we're aware of the TP.

Okay, very good. Like fights that you don't need to take, you should not be taking them. Especially in the in the

third round when you lost the first two, like where where your economy is [ __ ] Like this skill on the Phoenix is not

going to give you anything special. Like, but saving this gun, this shield for the next round is going to protect

our economy a lot for the future rounds. time. >> This is the round where fake would be

amazing. Especially the fake onto the a site because you applied enormous amount of pressure onto a. We pretty much tried

to finish like three rounds in a row onto a site. This is the round where you do a fake.

But okay, based on the enemy's position, we kind of know that, you know, club is like a mid player. Uh then um Hila has a

B setup and three enemies are playing towards the A short and towards the A side. So that's fine.

>> At least we know what we're fighting against. >> She's

okay. when you're using a teleport in the beam and area of the map to scale a B like you should always use

your teleport here so that if an enemy is maybe flanking and lurking he cannot he cannot

see your teleport from here. You know you're putting this trademark when going for a fiveman push on B side an enemy

can easily be on this corner hide your teleport from that enemy. So even if an enemy is like you know maybe

waiting for you to come back holding your teleport, he doesn't see you if you teleport here.

But this like uh this this uh this teleport in this corner is really really good if

your main idea is to run it down through the speedway and to fight the enemies in the back site. And when you're using a

teleport that is exposed from from the spawn, like you should do it if your idea is to just

go through the speedway, take all of these fights. You can take a fight at the backside with a teleport as well.

And you should be doing a teleport right here, not here. Like this teleport doesn't achieve that much you know like

there is no difference between this teleport this teleport or any other teleport that you can do like this one

you use like when you just want to clear the back set and the whole site and that is your main objective.

This one >> you use like when you know your main idea is to go into the market and

potentially pick these type of fights through the smoke and surprise the enemies.

And if you have no specific plan, just put the teleport right here. So the enemy, this enemy

doesn't doesn't see it because of the trip. >> Where' you put the trip anyways?

>> Listen, when whenever you're going for the fiveman push onto the B side, always put your trademark here. Always. At

least in the early rounds until you figure out how the enemies are playing. And you know what what they're doing in

general on a on a on a defender's side because this trip cannot be smoked off like only if if a controller is lurking

and flanking. He can smoke off this trip. But jet cipher like other agents just cannot pass this troop in almost

any way and not get revealed. And especially in the lobby below like immortal I mean even if a controller is

lurking like God knows what type of a smoke he's going to drop >> my smokes are going to drop need to make

entry >> once again you're focusing on the on the wrong objectives man like uh here

even if an enemy is flanking even if an enemy is lurking Even if an enemy destroyed your trip

that is right here, you cannot focus on that enemy. Like in rank soloq, like in the lobbies below Immortal 3, you always

need to focus on your teammates that are up front that are going to be taking the fights right now that are going to be

just sending it immediately. like we can worry about this guy that is behind us later, you know, once we take

a sight and once we [ __ ] up the enemies that are in front of us. But here, like even if let's say you get a kill onto an

enemy that is mid, you I just don't know in a diamond ascendant lobby what's going to happen

with four of your teammates that are going B right now. How well they're going to play around the kill setup. Are

they going to destroy the recon abilities? What type of an execute your jet is

going to do? Like I nobody knows and no one can tell you like what's going to happen. So

because you don't know how your teammates are going to play this execute, you are forced to play with

them. Like right now, you should be scaling out, going with the jet towards the

speedway, instantly focusing on the site, and using your teleport and your teammates to open up the site and live a

happy life. >> Phoenix market CT

>> like this round could have been done right now. You could have killed the killjoy with your jet on the bomb site.

Now killed the ISO and at 110 we could have finished this round already. Like you should never focus yourself

on the enemies that are lurking and flanking, especially if they if they destroy

your trademarks and utility because 90% of times when the players destroy the information utility that we placed

behind. They're just going to back off. They're just going to walk away and they're not going to have a

confidence to actually, you know, press forward anymore because we revealed their position. 90% of times that

happens in ranked solo Q. Only in the high low lobbies like players play a bit differently, you know, a bit smarter, so

it's really hard to read them. >> Yeah, you even got the com. Did you say this?

download. >> I mean, we knew that Kiljun's on the site,

so map awareness might, you know, might not be the best. >> Basically, like, you know, whenever you

see someone dying on the right side right here, whenever you see something that uh you didn't see before on the

mini map, like some some kind of a question mark X mark like uh some utility, you should be checking the mini

map. for one second. Like it's it's better, you know, for you

to die because you're trying to gather the info rather than dying like this where you're completely unaware that

enemy kills on the site and you're still focusing on the market. >> She's lame.

break them. >> Now, in this round, you know, even even though with a chamber, as soon as you

build up the chambers ultimate, you want to use that ultimate immediately

in that round. So, we're building so you build up like at least four chamber ultimates

in 24 rounds, but enemy Isa has the ultimate. So in this round, you're forced to get a phantom or vendal and to

play with the automatic weapon because if picks you up, god help us. Also, what you are doing right here still makes no

sense. You know, we push that beast quite easily. Your team is just torn towards the side.

We played an easy ref game. Enemies mechanically seem really bad as well. I'm not going to lie. like especially

the fights that Phoenix and Isizo were picking up. So, it's still there's no reason to play alone. No reason to start

picking up the enemies on mid. No reason to put any pressure on mid yet. >> Let me get that jet. Let me get it.

>> Because also one thing that you know your teammates have proven is that uh they're not really aware when it comes

to the enemy's utility. like they are really not ready for the Phoenix flashes for the Phoenix Molotov executes are

mega scuffed like I don't know we have a one round a proper execute from our from our like jet so you need to focus still

playing a team play game and not to mention that you have absolutely no idea what's even happening

on mid you know when you're doing a play like this you're either doing it because fiveman executes are not working for you

or because you got the info from the previous rounds that enemies are very repetitive somewhere. They're always

speaking short. They're always speaking bottom mid. Okay, then you can start the round by taking [clears throat] this

type of fight, get a kill, reset yourself towards your teammates, and that's it. And also like what you

especially when you have the operator, what you really don't want to do in this uh tile area of the map

>> is put a teleport after the round starts because if you put this teleport and then you go for a

peak. >> I mean like I if an enemy was playing bottom mid, he is probably not going to

peek you unless he has the operator as well. like he's not going to have a confidence to do that in a diamond or

ascendant lobby. So, a much better idea is like place a teleport here or here before the round even starts. Use the

ultimate and then let's go for a peak short. Let's clear bottom mid. No sound

>> trip right here. I'm paying >> be in smoke >> like here like I I I don't know if if

enemy club maybe played bottom bit he could have heard your teleport and you know I highly doubt that she's

going to have a confidence to contest a chamber player with a OP in this situation.

There's three here. >> I'm smoking. >> Okay.

>> Okay. That trademark is I guess fine. Okay, there there's one rule that you should always follow

when you're pushing a bomb site only through the short area of the map, through an alternative area of that map.

You need to focus on clearing the amen and being ready for a fight in the amen. Like it's a very common play like you

know if one guy was stuck on the A site for that guy to squeeze into the aim and area of the map and then [ __ ] you up and

[ __ ] your teammates up from the aiming position. Like as your teammates are clearing the site, you should be

focusing on the aim and area of the map and being ready for that type of fight because especially in the lobies below

immortal tree, your a lot of times your teammates are just going to tunnel vision onto the

bomb site, clearing the generator, clearing under site, clearing the whole site while that enemy from the amen is

going to get overlooked enormous amount of times. And right now a much better usage of your trademark would have been

in the aiming area of the map. So we don't even need to focus on that as we are taking these fights

>> and we can just chill here for a brief moment of time. Focus on clearing that box, these boxes under the site and then

we don't even need to clear the aim in because this guy is going to get revealed anyways, you know. Then you can

just follow up maybe your most aggressive teammates which is like your jet and SOA at this moment of time. Like

you can just clear the site, put a trademark and aim in and then instantly pick a knife out and try to connect with

your jet and support that jet in the garden. >> Could be push.

>> And listen, you don't need to clear this alone. like uh especially if you're playing chamber with an operator, you

just want to give your team as the coms that someone can be there and just hold it for them. So you don't need to go

this deep alone like so how how should this this look like? Sorry, I I turned it into XQC for a second. So we're going

out. We we can clear these angles. Hold the that while our teammates are going in. Your teammates are going in. You're

still holding this for them. you're pushing into the in. So, we're clearing in this position,

clearing the site, clearing all of these angles. As your teammates are scaling in into the site, you can hold the vines.

Then, when your teammates are here, you're still holding a for them, but you're ready to fight with them on site

and take these type of picks. Once we clear the site, we can just hold the aim in for our teammates or tell our

teammates, "Hey guys, let's go and re recclele the amen of the map together." And generally speaking, like you know,

if you save your trademark uh for the middle of the round and your teammates want to do, let's say, a B

push only through market or let's say a A push only through the A3 of the map. The best usage of your train is usually

like just putting into a and forgetting about that position while we are taking the space and trying to fight the

enemies that are in the rafters or in the garden area of the map. >> And also like you know how you clear

this a map like is not that good. Like more commonly players that scoot into the aiming area of the map in the

lobbies below immortal, they're usually going to play around the vines. So this should always be the first angle that

you're clearing. You clear vines deep, then you go back and then you clear these angles and then you can clear deep

vines and then you get the [ __ ] out essentially. And then or or you can just hold the flank while your teammates are

positioning on the site. So, you know, like uh you didn't lose this round yourself, but you could have

stayed alive, played with your teammates on the site, hold the aim and peak, aim and push. We are anticipating already

that one enemy is there. You don't need to clear a alone with a operator and I had hunters. You can just chill, relax,

take the sight control, plan the spike, and then together with your teammates, clear that area of the map. Or we can

take a space somewhere else like we can hold the rafters. We can take the garden with a jet and za that already pushed

into the enemy spawn. A second Bro, my teammates was throwing so I started sweating in chat so bad. Will I

get banned? Yeah, probably. Probably will, my friend. I I just don't know for how long.

Okay, >> one of our >> listen when you're playing in the lobby

is below immortal 3. So all the way from iron one to immortal 2.

Uh the easiest way and the best way to play the first four to six rounds is organizing something together with your

teammates like giving them some kind of a easy macro plan that they can follow. And you're mainly focusing on reading

the enemy's individual plays and how they play on a micro level and what's working and what's not working and what

we can actually fix during our executes. You should not be giving your teammates this much control in this lower ill

lobbies when it comes to what we should be hitting, what we should be pushing. Like you should have an idea what's the

best to do at that moment of time. you need to be, you know, that type of a IGL essentially like here there's absolutely

no reason still to contest enemies mid. There's no reason to split anything. We can still do a five and push A, five and

push B together and properly and see how the enemies are going to respond. Especially in the aiming area

of the map, you literally have three kills from the round number one because enemies didn't change anything. Fade

Phoenixo a short A with the aggression in the Aian area of the map. Killjoy passive B setup clover around mid for

five rounds. Enemies played in the identical way. That is the main thing like uh that you should be abusing like

that repetitiveness from the players in rank solo Q in order to counter them and kill them. And if you already want to do

something different right now, like you should mainly be searching for that kill in the aim and the map

jet preferably >> stairs. Listen, let me give another tip. So, uh,

when should you play with your teammates on mid? You should play with your teammates on

mid when there's like two or three teammates going through the mid area of the map or when you see an opportunity

to get an easy frag, easy pick somewhere here or here, or if the famine executes are not working for you. If you have

Raina that wants to lurk and FL, do some solo play on mid. [ __ ] that Raina. Let let her do whatever the [ __ ] she wants.

Especially because we didn't we didn't see any real aggression from the enemies in the mid area of the map in the

previous like five rounds. The real problem of this round is what your teammates in the beam are going to do.

Because if they die from the kill setup, if they die from, I don't know, Phoenix flesh or something like that,

we're going to have a real problem where the spike is going to be chilling in the beam area of the map and you're still

trusting your team as they didn't do a single proper push and they're unaware completely when it comes to the enemy's

utility. [laughter] >> Anyone stairs?

Like here, you should just dip out. Like, you know, you have two options. Either you try to save more space in the

market and try to get a kill with a teleport or just dip out. You holding this position will not achieve anything.

Your teammates are already in, they can die at any moment of time. You need to do something in this

situation. Like either grab yourself by your balls and just move into the market. Anyways,

you have a teleport like you know no matter what type of a [ __ ] up scenario you end up, you can just TP away or TP

away immediately and just re knife in the hands run towards your teammates like here

you know when there's something happening on some part of the map like your teammates are

doing something big like fighting multiple enemies taking the site and you're stuck somewhere on mid or an

enemy was flanking and lurking like you just never know what what what what this player is actually going to do. Like

this size might just pick up a knife in the hands and rotate through the spawn. Enemy that was lurking and flanking

might just abort the mission and he might be just wasting your time right now. Like all of this is just a gamble

and a huge waste of time. Like if you don't know if this enemy is actually going to push you, if this enemy is

actually going to fight you, the best gable for you in rank solo Q is playing with these [ __ ] that are

entering the site or doing something useful for them, which is pushing the bottom mid and trying to kill the

enemies in the market with a teleport. >> Like your position here was already compromised. Enemies know that you're

somewhere around the mid area of the map. They're ready for you and there is no reason to be in a spot

like this. >> Like this. This is exactly what I'm talking about. Like this is why you

should value the team play in the lobbies, especially in the lobbies below immortal one over anything else. Like

you just don't know who the [ __ ] you're playing this game with when you're playing it below immortal one. There is

so many boosted accounts, so many bought accounts, so many unaware players, like so many players that just don't don't

know what to do, you know, and you need to be ready to refrag them. You need to be ready to play with them in these

early rounds and just test the strengths of your team and the enemy team with a basic execution setup. Five and A, five

and B, one 4 B split, 32 A split, fake A go B, fake B, go A. There's no reason to complicate the rounds

and you should avoid in these lobbies starting the round and playing the round with this arena unless every round

enemies were fighting for mid and they were peeking a short and bottom mid like maniacs. But even then, you know, in

this type of round, you are putting so much trust into your teammates into three of your teammates that are

executing the a site right now. Like whenever you're taking mid control in Valerant, mid control should never be

taken by two players. There should always be either three or four players going through mid

while one or two players are either holding A and B main or they're doing a split on the oppo, you know, in Aman and

Bman. >> Now in this round like listen, this is unwinable like enemies need to make so

many mistakes to lose this round. You're very low HP as well. It is only two four. If you lose this round, you should

be saving this weapon, saving your economy for the next round and chilling. And you should maybe maybe focus on

maybe getting some, you know, exit kills or something like that just to damage the enemy's economy a bit. There's no

reason to, you know, pursue this round and win it no matter what. >> Because if you lose this gun, then in

the next round you're going to play with a [ __ ] economy. You're also not going to have an option to drop something uh to

your to your teammates, you know, like uh yeah, it's going to be interesting. Do

you think it's better to play at 1080p than at 1440p? Even if you have plenty of FPS at 1440p, I I I would play at 2K.

I think 2K is looks more crisp. It's easier to spot the enemies like uh uh on on longrange duels and on the pixel

angles. The only reason why I don't play on 2K is because I'm using the Zoe monitor as my as my main monitor. Uh

basically >> yeah, you should just save like there's there's really no reason to try anything

or do anything like you know you need to be realistic with yourself

in some of these rounds like with 77 HP like You need to be like uh six ranks above clo kilra and faith to

win this round or at least 300 rank rating above them or they need to be make such a horrible mistakes to lose a

round like this. You need to value the economy of your team and yourself in these type

of rounds that just have a very low success rate of working out unless you're already winning a lot or you're

losing a lot. You know, here if you're losing like 2 six for an example, okay, try to clutch up the round. Try to see

if enemies are going to make some mistake. Play smart. Try it out. But at 23, like there's really no reason to,

you know, do any of this. just say like this moment. [ __ ]

Now, if you saved a vendal from the previous round, this round you would be playing

with what? a vendal heavy shield and a trademark which would allow you to have much higher chances of winning this

round. So trying to clutch a 1v3 scenario with 77 HP

has around like I don't know 2% of chance working out like two to 5% of these type of rounds below immortal one

maybe you can clutch up but then if you don't clutch it up you're

sacrificing this round as well potentially you're going to have lower chances of winning the round number

And then you put yourself in a spot where you kind of traded the next round because you wanted to win a round that

has like two or 5% of chances working out. In this round, if you have a vendal, heavy shield, and utility,

there's a huge chance you can you can actually clutch up that round for your teammates. You can get the kills, you

can get the reflex, you know. Now, in this round, you need to rely on the head hunters to get the reflex. you know,

Isaoko can pull you up in the ultimate and then you're going to have a pistol as well

is it's just not worth it in rank solo queue. >> Smoking here.

>> And listen, man, like uh in rank solo queue, when uh whenever you see that uh two of your teammates are forcing, you

should always force up with them. [ __ ] it. Like this guy is not going to have money for the next round. This guy is

gonna probably not gonna have that much money for the next round as well. Like ju just get a vendle. Anyways, you

have a lot of economy in this round. Like yourself. Like for example, in this round, just a second. So in the next

round, you're going to have 7,100 credits. So, as long as you as long as we have

money for a trademark or a heavy shield and for a vendal or phantom in the next round, we should be

fine. So, that is like around, you know, for for a chamber that is around like 4,100 credits. In this round, you have

3,000 credit credits that you can invest. So you can get a heavy shield, you can get a trademark, you can get

eight head hunters for an example. You can maybe get a light shield and get some other weapon, whichever you

prefer, depending if you're playing on attackers defender side. Like you should always be investing every single credit

that you're not going to use in the next round. Always. Unless you're saving money for the operator, then like, you

know, you should be saving more. Like this round right here, there is absolutely no reason for you to play

with the light shield. Just get the heavy sh get trademark, get old utility. Anyways, in the next round, you can even

get the operator with how much money you have. looking.

>> Okay, once again, you're losing you're losing a timing to play with your most

aggressive teammates. You can still be holding in this market, you know, like uh trademark is okay. You know, you

usually you want to put the the trademark for the amen right here. So that uh you know like uh enemies

cannot push the amen and destroy your trademark immediately. And then once again you need to be like are these guys

pushing the amen? Are these guys behind me? What are they going to do? You get the point. Yes, it can be smoked off but

that's a trade tradeoff that we need to do here when we're just taking the mid and the beman area of the map. Second

thing, your jet is running down. Okay, you held this angle, no one is there. drop down and from this position, you

can still hold that angle for your jet, but you're getting closer to her. So, if she decides to all of a sudden dash into

the market, dash into the short, you're not like 50 m away from that jet. Like, no one guarantees you in this round that

someone is going to pick the market. We're just holding the market because that's a very probable spot from which

enemies are maybe going to peak, but you don't know that. This is actually very good to be honest.

Like here you gathered enormous amount of info on the mini map like Clo and Iso are top mid, Kiljo is the B player,

Faith and Phoenix are a short. Like this decision of yours in this ecohal round to now go into the amen and try to kill

the enemies from behind is actually very good. >> And you should be doing this at this

moment of time. >> It's me. >> Just how we clear the angles is going to

be. Yeah. Very important. Like listen, envelopment like you're just forced like no matter in what type of [ __ ] up

scenario you are, no matter through which area of the map you're going, like you're just forced to cut the angles

wider or shorter. It it really doesn't matter. But you cannot be moving with two keys at the same time at any moment

of time. Like you always need to cut the angles with just one key. Clear everything one at a time. Like this

short angle for an example. You come up here, you need to do this. You can clear it a bit wider, you know, so you can see

the enemies here, here, and here and be ready for the fight and for the flicks in these positions. But you cannot be

going through the main area of the map like this when you already know that two enemies are somewhere in this area of

the map. Like you already have the info, where are the enemies? You didn't hear a single footstep towards the aiming area

of the map. You saw two enemies here. We know that Killjoy is on the B side. And we know that fade and phoenix are here.

So the only angles that you need to clear are actually generator, this spot, this position, this position, and this

position right here. Then we can start moving in again if you didn't see the enemies and try to catch a timing onto

that fade and onto that phoenix and kill them. There's not a single moment of time

where your engagement in Valerant should look like this, where you're just gliding around the

angles and not clearing them when you have no idea whether or not enemies are holding you. At that moment of time, you

should always cut the pie, go in and out, cut the angles one at a time and only with one key. All always

Especially if you want to lurk up alone through mid from the tiles or from top mid. You

cannot be using your teleport after the round starts. Like you you need to use your teleport

before the barrier drops down because here this flank can lurk that you know whatever you're doing right now. It

doesn't matter. Enemies in the beam and enemies in at the bottom is >> actually hear you, you know, like now

they get the info or chamber styles. I mean, we don't know if they heard that or not, but they're not deaf, you know.

Yes, like communication envelopment is not the best. So maybe your enemies are not going to, you know, talk about that

utility usage and what what they heard at that moment of time. But you cannot gamble on that.

Yo, radio neon. Uh, you need to connect to your Twitch on Discord, man. But he hit me up on

Discord, then I I'll do it. [ __ ] it. Remind me. So, just put a teleport here before the

round starts. And now listen to the sound and pick a good timing to lurk up and flank based on how much pressure

your teammates put into the aim and area of the map. But the thing is like still, you know, we

didn't we didn't try a single proper fiveman push on B. We didn't try a single proper fiveman push on A. I'm one

million% confident if you play the early rounds in the way that I explained, you would probably be winning this match

right now. We just over complicated for this elo way too much. And I don't know, at least from these first seven rounds,

like I can kind of feel that enemies are doshit. You know, they're really bad. We can easily take the refrag reig fights

and just open up the space, but whatever. Now, what you're doing right now is like

neither good nor bad. Like there's 50% of chance that maybe you get a pick in the mid area of the map. You maybe get a

pick onto some enemy rotation. Anyways, in this round, if we want to go a we need to have the short control and the

guardian control because of the killress ultimate. Yes, we have a SOA ultimate to destroy the kill just ultimate, but

in diamond lobbies, you know, putting your faith into diamond soa to destroy that ultimate. Interesting.

If you didn't see or clear an angle, always expect an enemy to be on that position. Always. Like in this example

here, if you don't know if some if someone is there, you should be clearing this

angle, scoped in, and being ready ready for this fight. Enemies could have taken this position as well. Clear it up. Now,

we should be clearing these angles mainly with a head hunter because enemies can be here and here as well.

with a OP like you just need to gamble a lot if you're going to hit this quick scopes and you need to gamble with your

crosser placement a lot like one enemy can easily be on an off angle like this. So when it comes to pathing and angle

clearing, you can be a lot better with that. >> Open man.

>> And this is what I was talking about like I mean you know a as free this whole match like literally you know

enemies were not doing anything special to stop us. We lost the first round only because we didn't anticipate Iso and

Phoenix utility in a main and the second round because we were playing playing an eco round. So there was really no reason

to change the game plan so much. >> One enemy remaining. >> Okay. If if the killer does this

ultimate, then you don't need any any short control. >> How are we going to destroy that, bro?

>> Okay. Okay. >> Okay. Okay. This is even worse, you know, like uh

the the whole point of this type of a peak is to surprise. I mean, you're not

surprising anyone like play players should be should be ready for this, but they should not know the timing when

you're going to peek, you know, like but if if you do a teleport here and an enemy sees this line of the teleport

being placed, I mean, the guy is going to be mega ready for the gunfight that's going to

happen. He's going to be more focused on the angle. He's not going to be looking at the mini

map or something like that. There's no timings that we can pick to fight fight that enemy.

And you also you're also losing the timing to kill the enemies in short a bit

here. I hope that you see that you're carrying the spikes. So, you kind of need to go through the beamman right

now. We just need to back off. We need to back off. We need to go be. We have spike.

>> Jesus helped us. Now we need to jump here and get the [ __ ] away. I feel like your general awareness like

is is is really poor and you need to pay more attention on what what your teammates

are doing on the mini map a bit more, you know, like uh and you need to start reading the enemies a bit like their

positioning and stuff like that. I have a training for this. You you will be doing that training for the next eight

weeks. We just need to make you more aware when it comes to like what's actually happening on the map and what

is the right play to do at a specific moment of time. >> 80 kill joy left side

>> was bottom mid. She was right side >> was tree. She was jump kicking me should be the only a player.

Here once again we have a problem like you know that trip that should drop mid is

like okay you know you prevent enemies to have a timing to kill you from the bottom mid

and to come short really fast but when you're pushing the aite without the aiming control it's really

good having that trip to prevent the enemies from peing you from the aim in like when you're taking the space.

>> Okay, last time enemy fade scooted into the vines. I really hope that this time we're not going to push a alone with 30

HP and operator and that we're going to give that com to our teammates. Hey guys, one enemy could be in the aim in

and that we're gonna actually hold that peak. You should be holding a

players in rank solicure are very repetitive. When you see them do something that is

their usual play style and their playbooks are very shallow. You know, their play style is very shallow below

the immortal lobbies. Whenever you see enemies do something once, there's a huge chance they're going to repeat it

twice or the even the third time. So, you should have been ready for this and you should have been holding that peak

from the enemy fade. >> Good kill nevertheless. 30 seconds left. >> Uh also one one one more thing here is

like uh uh you know if you're already pushing ASA through the a short close the doors you know

okay you put a TP here but close the door so that you don't need to worry about a potential push through the A in

towards the short a potential push of the guys from the Bin towards the short as well.

isolate some angles for yourself so you can just focus on the sight and focus on the aiming area of the map anyway. So

like your jet and rain are literally inside of the enemy's anal cavity in the guard and on on the rafters. So there's
