    I’m only plat 5 but my highest has been diamond 2. And I play four player split screen with my siblings in ranked. And their low plat to high gold and I notice the biggest problem they have is over extending and pushing when down teammates. Their getting better, but it takes time. I like how you explained and pointed out mistakes that Plat and Gold players make myself included. And I’ve noticed that I just can’t break back into Diamond.

      you can do it man, it takes awhile to really lock in fundamentals and even with my rank at high diamond / onyx you can see that i STILL make those mistakes too. keep at it. practice with purpose! :)

    I definitely play far too aggressively. I often come away from games with a fairly high kill-count compared to my teammates, but my deaths are practically always nearly as high as my kills. So really my high kill count isn't doing the team favours because I'm also giving away so many kills.
    Great video, mate. You have a really good presenting style that's easy to follow and pick up on top tips quickly. Keep these coming!

    plat players really need two big things. 1 have a plan of actions. being prepaired for somehting will always go better than being suprised in halo. ex " a teamate is chasing someone let me set my self up to look where they are going even if its just 1 shot across the map. " and 2 plat players and below are BAD at using the map around them espically on mnk. most people 1st step into this is look for nades. But the other guns and equiptment all have stranghts to play around. Get map pressure and use those tools for what they are good at.
    what most plat players do is just run out and shot at anything that moves they dont make a plan on every life starting with making a plan is priority number one

    Thanks, great content. Keep it coming! I solo Q and always high plat / low diamond. Some games I popoff but I usually evaluate personal performance by damage done and shots fired. Sometimes that means 20 assists, sometimes it means 20 kills. I noticed a big thing: I usually have 1.5-2x more shots fired than my team. Imo its a big part of laying down pressure and forcing enemy to make mistakes. Keep the content coming. 👍

    • @VanadamYT
      @VanadamYT  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      a good comment and mindset. alot of people focus on accuracy but in actual fact pressure and prefired shots are important to secure angles or map areas. especially when the game counts the repulsor as part of your accuracy calculation or so it's been said. thanks for commenting!

    • @VanadamYT

      that tends to be knowing when to retreat and also where you can and cant be flanked from. sometimes though the pieces move in a way that means you eventually will have to die and how you have to play your life matters more.

    • @VanadamYT
      @VanadamYT  ปีที่แล้ว

      assists are showing either 1 or 2 things
      you're helping team mates OR you're losing alot of duels that team mates finish off. it's hard to tell which is happening without idea evidence but 2 assists for 1 death is usually worth it for map pressure and objective control.
      you shouldn't throw your life away but you should play it to help win

    My highest has been plat 5. After the reset now im a plat 3 and struggling to stay in plat 4. Every time i get there i start losing multiple games in a row. But i try not to discourage myself. Quite often theres diamond lvl players on the other team and i do better than them in all ways. So if i just keep trying hopefully i will get that diamond rank i truly want.

Now im past plat 4 easy and going into plat 5 now that im finishing way more kills than before. Just had to find what was natural for me rather than taking recommended settings. Everyones controller is a lil different. Yesterday i was getting alot of players one shot but wouldnt finish. Now its dialled in im getting more proper 4 shots and feels really good. Thank u tho

    rarely see top players willing to analyze lower lobbies, they fail to understand majority of the population are in lower lobbies. this was top notch content, but I’ll say this. lower ranked lobbies are cracked, halo fundamentals don’t apply. it’s beautiful chaos. if you would be soo willing , I’ll love to send u my replay if u decide to analyze it.

      I get the sentiment here but I have to disagree somewhat.
      any time I've played an account in platinum I have immediately flown through it due to abusing errors those players make by acting as a bodyguard for my team as platinum players have a bad upstanding of game flow pressure and positioning
      though going with friends definitely helps for sure

      @@VanadamYT I understand the idea of exploiting the average weaknesses of platinum players, but when you end up in matches where players are downright refusing to put in the flag (even though the coast is clear), not playing the ball when they should, or just plain ignoring the main objective, there is not much else to do. Fact is that you'll burn through ranks with a party of humans instead of gambling with the matchmaking system and praying you don't get total bots on your team (you will).
      It's even worse when you start getting losing streaks due to getting dropped in partial matches or just veritable incompetence from your teammates. Probably a solid 75% of my losses are because of this.
