I know everyone has different ways of dealing with them, so I just wanted to share what works for me on a mindset level. Hope you enjoy!

Nice i think I Love you
I'm sorry i have to go clean of Ron's creamy surprise
not having enough sleep greatly effect your gameplay
Whats the easyest and quickest way to get out of a slump? i want my aim skill back now and i want to keep it
tip 1 and the best tip: BE POSITIVE (No toxicity)
To hard for me. When Im playing bad and I know I can do better i get frustrated and then I get toxic to others to
thanks Oxford dictionary I wonder what the world would be without you
@@god_eater1595 that’s why you gotta make sure when you get frustrated to try to calm down
This one is what keeps a game/lobby winnable, just play and if you're not feeling it take a break or play reflection/spike rush. I had a game earlier where I give comms and not degrade our Raze for not having a bad aim and just told him it's fine which in turn made him try hard more and got some kills. From bottom frag early rounds he became 3rd fragger.
I always would like to say that always remember we have our bad days/games which can be infuriating, so that makes no difference for other people having bad days/games. Just remember to be kind and encourage them to still try. You lose some, you win some :D
90% of the time when I admit my faults to my team and praise instead of ridicule we always end up winning and having a good time, valorant is as much as a mental game as it is a tactical game
I once had a game where everyone in my team was so positive and toxicity was absolutely tossed to the void. They didn't comm perfectly or frag extraordinarily but we still stomped 13-3.
Luckily I had this too sometimes.
"go outside" is one of the best tip tbh
I legit lost ten games in a row and deranked so many times it pains me just thinking about it although after I left for a month I got better
saaaaame
Same, I was like 1 game away from gold 1. I then got a 11 lost streak. I was mvping almost every game. Like I would always get bad teammates or toxic teammates. Now I’m silver 1.
@@lucin_4 lol he must be boosted or something gold 1 is just to low at least like plat 2
@@lucin_4 boosted much?
@@lucin_4 You can't possibly lose that much if you aren't boosted, it's just not probable.
For me, confidence is really important to overcome this problem. If I have the info needed to execute an attack, I'll just do it regardless the negative outcome that might happen. If i fail, then I'll try something else that'll caught the enemies off guard. Just like TenZ said; "If you lose, it's not the end of the world."
I barely started the video and i already know that im gonna enjoy
My man sasori
I remember being in a slump for so long, I remember getting so constantly angry at myself for not being at my best. Everything about the game made me angry and I just stopped playing, now I play league, what a great mental improvement
I'm really thankful you made this video. I legit kept deranking and losing my games. My rank was Gold 3, and I got deranked to Silver 3. It was a big loss. I thought I was the only one experiencing this. So I'm really, really thankful because you made me understand that I'm not alone.
You've just change my vision on life and point out all i was struggling with. Thanks man it means a lot to me.
the first time ive ever heard anyone tell someone to touch grass in a positive way and i love it
I’d love to see a video on “online gaming etiquette” or something like that :D
i love this guy, every time im facing a problem i find his videos in my recommended
Jeezus eggwick you released this at the right time cuz im stuck in low elo and i keep getting worse, also thx for your wisdom
i love you eggwick honestly i have lost my last 3 comp games all bottom fragging i am really tilted and tired idk what i was expecting by searching up how to get out of a slump but im happy i did thanks :)
love the vid and the mindset keep it up man!
great video!
thank you eggwick, im gonna enjoy watching this because im in a slump rn
Thank u man, this video is a godsend, a couple of weeks ago I was doing really good and was thinking I was getting better, yesterday I had a red carpet and single digit kills and my confidence was shaken and I was thinking I was getting worse at the game. Thanks man, I needed this video. Subscriber here now!
The timing of this upload is so clutch. I am currently on a 15 game losing streak and I needed this
ive been in a slump for almost 2 months, I went from gold 3 to silver 2 and I just can't seem to understand what is going wrong, so this video really helped me, keep up the great work!
I was a night p2 pos Kd player now I’m hold 1 with a .8 my positioning has been bad and just timing and I cba
may not be the best advice but for many of us (be honest) we usually have more than one account in different ranks. i know I know, smurfing is toxic and all but playing 1 or 2 games at a lower rank can sometimes help you build confidence. If you're dead set on competitive integrity, an unrated with some of your not as good friends is good too. I find this helps remind why you got to the rank you're at and it wasn't a fluke! keep your heads up people and keep grinding!
bro you are great... love you... thanks bro... i was suffering from deppression of not playing well.. you solved it
whats the worst is when poor results lead to toxic teammates lead to being tilted leading to having a slump.
just a bad day sometimes ;-;
im amazed, i was feeling this way just moments ago, now i came onto yt to find this 😁
Just what i needed
I'm in a huge slump rn, thanks for the tips. I've been grinding ranked for weeks now, only to lose a few games in a row, get tilted about losing, and then play worse because I'm tilted, snowballing badly. I'm gonna take a break until the next act.
Thanks!
crazy how much this guy has improved in the past year alone
Thank you ❤
calm eggwick makes me happy
Thanks man
I’ve recently had one of these and have started a break pretty recently. I’ve been playing league and the couple of times I log onto valorant it already feels better. Taking breaks is critical, don’t underestimate their power.
How long should I take a break for so that it will help me, but I won’t forget a lot of key things from the game
@@groundhogeater34 as long as you feel it's good i take breaks ranging from about 1 month to 3 days it's just about time u think it's okay . i suggest atleast 3 days but again that's just me
I just wanna play all the time so i can keep improving. Taking breaks is boring. Another con to being a human
Eggwicks like a time traveller or something, was literally considering quiting val but then i got this noti
The best thing about eggwick's video is, his video does not consist of bullshit
thank you so much
4:33 noooo eggwick you almost had it :(
"sometimes, they might even be because you're too zoned in improving that you end up being too hard on yourself which ruins your mental state"
thank you, this really hit hard hahaha :"]
was diamond 3 and went down to diamond 2. I experience this a lot. I was popping off. for the games before i reached d3 and when i reached d3 i was like 5th or higher on the whole leaderboard per game (the avg combat score leaderbaord). But now ever since i took a small break ive done nothing but bad and have been 8th or lower in the leaderboard barely reaching double digit kills, and for 4 games, i went less than 7 kills. and now im struggling in plat lobbies. I think its definitely a mentality thing and I wasnt having issues before in diamond-ascendant lobbies. Thank you for this, i really needed to hear this.
thank you bro
Thank you :)
Thx eggwick u da best
the call about being so zoned in on improvement that you don't have fun is true. i just wanna get really good but lately ive absolutely sucked and felt confused about what to do yanno
his videos are most relatable that u can find on yt
Congo for 73k subs soon
i think also just having fun and trying new agents could help as you could find someone you really enjoy even if you still enjoy your main it’s just a bit of fun and don’t expect yourself to be good as you’re not using your main :)
i got out of my slump by switching to raze and being able to have impact with out needing my aim to be at my best. the assists and kills from the abilities let me feel like I was doing something while my aim reset or coming back up to par and then once it did I could honestly just solo hold a site and knowing if I got at least a two for one then my team could clutch even if I died afterwards
I started doing some light workout such as pushups, diamond pushups and other ab workouts to shake off some steam every time I die and it actually really helps.
yo wtf this is exactly what i needed
3:33 This happens to me so many times. Now I finally see what is going on. thank you!
Our mental health doctor 🙏♥
im new here and i love the intro lol
For me trying different agents can sometimes help me because it gives me something new to focus on in the game
1 year later. Thank you, Eggwick.
i was pretty bad at the game last summer. i stopped playing for almost a year and just picked up the game again late last month/early this month. ever since then, i’ve been way better than i ever was. not really a slump, but it just proves that breaks can be refreshing and help you play better.
Ty so much i was scared that i just was getting wors
instantly got out of my slump after listening to the first minute and 47 seconds of the video :)
i love Mr Egg
This is advice for life tbh
I needed this vid so bad and not even for this game 😩
thanks
Taking a break helps us get back to our normal life which will help with all that demotivation we got from those losses, if you perform badly or anything take a break, it seriously works and if you are going on a holiday and worried about being rusty after you come back, dont worry about tthat either cause I my self have experienced that it wont happen as long as you dont get conscious on your aim cause thats what most people think of
plz help, i used to be g3 and now i dropped to s2 cuz of bad teammates cuz they just don’t know how to aim, use their abilities, and just fps in general. i try to communicate with them and try to give good callouts but they won’t listen and they would call me bad all the time. btw i’m match or team mvp for almost all the games i lose
@eggwick how long of a break should I take....I have been in a slump for almost 2 weeks Ik getting frustrated so I’m thinking of just stop playing valorant for a bit
Eggwick keeps reading my mind wtf??
i got a question please answer
all this is about us what if we did every thing right but we ended up with baad teamates so many times in a row, troling , trash talking sometimes they tell me "im not gonna tryhard or play for win im only enjoing i just got back from work"
and sooo on
im EU server player btw
please tell me how to deal with this any ideas eggwick..guys help
this week for some reason i went from like top frag jett to bottom frag jett and i really dont know whats wrong im trying everything but nothings working
this really helped me after a long week of 14 games and 13 loses
Does this also apply for different games such as league fortnite and apex?
Pls reply but I started slumping when I play with people that r better and then my aim started to be wacky den I get really sweaty
for your crosshair do you use outlines or no?
One big thing that was a hard pill to swallow was to take ownership for my own mistakes playing the game. Whether it be screwing up smokes/lineups, not playing with the team because you want to catch a flank and get punished by it or generally making an error on your end that influenced the outcome of the round. Example of this could be that instead of helping your team take control of the side you decide to hang back and wait for the flank that never shows up. Your team gets wiped out by the sweaty Jett and you find yourself in a 4v1. You end up getting shot while trying to escape saving your gun. I would be quick to announce to my team that my choice to hang back and not help out wasn't the right call for the situation and that I have learned from that mistake and will do better moving forward into the next rounds.
IMO, this shows your team that you are perceptive of your own abilities and shortcomings and to be able to acknowledge the fact you screwed up which helps them understand that you are cognizant of the way you are playing and not just some mindless, mic less player thats only concerned with dropping 30 bombs instead of getting 13 rounds. I've never had this mindset go wrong for me and my teammates are always understanding and appreciative of the fact that I know where I went wrong and am actively trying to do better next time around.
I mean, its either that, or having the 13 y/o kid shitting on you whist Alt tabbing in and out of his zoom call :^)
all im saying is the music in this vid bops
Can you show how to get better aim p2??
3:55 the nicest way to tell us to touch grass 😂
3:54 That was the nicest way to tell someone to get off their computers.
may I know what the background music is ? (I found out guys, its "Twelwe - Ikigai) and yh its Twelwe with a w.
been in a slump myself for a couple weeks, just been playing worse than i normally do, i actually have ranked up thanks to my good friends who carried me. I was thinking about taking a week break of val and go out more and play different games
Ever since eps 4 was released, i've been in a slump, i dont know anymore man
i feel like it is more my aim that has gotten what i perceive as worse because i have recently got a new mouse and set up ect, so for me watching my old clips back i feel like i cant perform the same with my aim and that affects my decissions and overall gameplay a lot, the mouse feels unnatural and i feel in a way off balance if that makes sense.
2:31 im pretty sure thats the definition of insanity
I'm played so bad today to the point i questioned if being this bad was even possible.
I just don't feel motivated to play valorant if I don't have friends online i.e I don't really feel like playing solo. Is that considered a slump too?
Not really
yea I guess if you don't have motivation to play the game just take a break from the game like maybe a week and after that, you will come back in with the mentality of wanting to play
Honestly if that’s been a constant feeling then it might just be that you aren’t playing valorant for your solo enjoyment or improvement as much as you are for your time with friends, and there’s no shame in that. I had that same problem constantly with apex legends, where I would feel like I should be focusing on myself a lot more but didn’t find the game very fun without a friend. It’s not really a slump, it’s more the reason you play the game, which is different for everybody.
same bro i am gold1(soon gold2) and my friend is plat2 altough i out frag him every match (even in terms of acs) i need someone to play with (idk if i solo q i know i wont win 75% of the match even if i am carrying the game) altough that friend is someone whom i never met in real life but we have become very close friends and play together a lot midnight and enjoy every bit of time with him (no homo xd)
Find more friends then
How do u avoid them thats what i wanna know
Once i get in a slump i usually quit, all that time practicing is pretty much a waste since i just lost all my a kills randomly
Cant wait until next year to maybe get some help 😒
I just take a break for a few weeks and some times a few months, sometimes it feels like I'm playing like a total noob and I get anxious sometimes before I jump in a match but after taking a break I end up playing better. It's like this with melee and cod.
When I hit a slump I up my sens by like 50% so I am forced to focus on aspects outside of aim to get kills, I do this in unrated tho as I’d never play ranked in a slump. Also improves mouse control while playing rather than just doing thag in kovaaks, which if ur playing ur val sens in kovaaks ur improvement is gunna be slower than playing a higher sens in kovaaks.
Been in a massive slump since around three quarters of the way through last act where I was top fragging the majority of the time as Jett/killjoy in plat3/diamond lobby's then went on a 20 game loosing streak and went from plat 3 to gold 2 and am now middle/bottom fragging with the same agents at gold 1/2 and playing like a literal phycopath cause I just don't care and completely missing easy shots that I would normally hit with ease, been taking breaks but not helping and am now contemplating stopping playing ranked for an act or two and only playing unrated with friends every now and again
0:58 Pheonix is named daddy chill
Thanks eggwick I'm silver 2 now close to silver 3. I was iron 2 like a month ago but I started playing bad.
Good shit bro. Keep improving my g and always hf
@@zukashi7012 thanks, I'm new to FPS games and I have 60fps but I keep telling myself to forget about what I could have and keep focusing on what I have
@@TheJourneyForJannah your mindset will bring you to the stars bro. Keep it up
@AssassinAcademy Stretched Res gives me 100 - 110 FPS but normal gives me 60 - 70. Is it worth to switch to stretched and get nearly double FPS or nah
Im stuck in a slumlfor the last 3 weeks dripped from plat 2 to gold 2 and now im stuck between gold 2 - plat 1 started losing more points than gaining
This is really out of context of the vid but I really need to know the name of the bg song along 2:09. Thank you
3:44 is facts it worked for me
Bro these past few days ive been freaking out about my mouse, whenever i hold it, it feels so uncomfortable, i cant hold it for more than 20-30 seconds till i have to readjust my grip
Currently on a aim slump cant seem to hit headshot. I really dont like it when I get a kill without hitting the head. Might need to take a day or two to rest my wrist and to refresh my mind.
i have this problem with games like minecraft, i get really bored and cant really figure out what to do past get more items
I just got out of a slump and just hit gold, the best advice I can give someone is think about the bigger picture. Like for me, I became overconfident, wanting to make me want to attempt things I couldn't do at my rank and level, like I was shooting before I get to my opponent's head because I wanted to flick at the speed of light.
What's your crosshair?
I’m in a slump currently because I change my sensitivity way to much at one point in time and now I’ve been in a year long slump. Is there a way I can find my sensitivity while using these methods?
A year long??? Just quit at that point 😂
ive hit gold 5 tiems this act and then deranked back to s3,im gonna leaver for a few days then go back
Man I don’t really know what to do my main acc got banned and I’ve been doing bad on my alt abd getting shit on by silvers when I’m g2 on my main anyone have any ideas on what to do
Why did this video come out during the exact time I'm slumped in valorant
