Join Vanadam as he coaches other halo players to help increase their rank in Halo: Infinite. Vanadam has been Onyx rank in every halo game (Reach,5 and infinite) and reached very high ranks in Halo 2 and 3 solo queue. With over 14 years of insight I help players who want to improve reach higher ranks. These videos are intended to help players understand the dynamics of solo play in halo infinite to help them gain CSR and push to higher ranks. One of the biggest challenges of climbing in this game is understanding team dynamics in pick up groups and how your actions cause more things than you realse.

Firstly:
Fair play to the player who sent the VOD footage… I’m sick of people who send in a VOD to people where they have a game in a million (the best VODs to review are the ones where you lose)
I’m Gold2 (SBMM took me fro Gold 5.5) I’m good but cannot carry a team
This review was amazing I have learnt so much.
Smurfers and boosters are a cancer in Gold but when u get a full Gold lobby this advice is priceless.
I’m old school Halo and try to hit a headshot every shot !!!
Thanks so much for the help
Your story parallels mine. All the way from the cusp of Platinum to currently a Gold 2. Crap teammates (not that I am anything great) or a lot of load ins with only 3 people. Especially savage for Extraction mode. I would be happy to send in a VOD for review, and I have already seen things in this video that I am sure I am doing as well.
@@bbender76 Same during S4. I just stopped trying to play ranked. Now the other playlists are as sweaty as ranked.
i think the best vod reviews are the super close games! but every once in a while i cover a PoV of someone stomping to highlight methods and how they abuse player skill or positioning. glad you enjoyed and thanks for commenting.
I've never fought a Smurf while climbing out of Gold, the thing that always holds me back is teammates with negative KDA before mid game, not working on control objectives, and generally no communication or working together.
Hey make sure to not hit heads every shot anywhere is the same damage until shield is broke… unless you got sniper etc
Another tip that would help: around the 11:15 mark, this person rushes right past the disrupter that would have helped with the reload situation. There’s zero reason to not have a free backup weapon. Gotta utilize the sandbox
This is an interesting lobby. So many mistakes made by so many players here. I think a gold match was a breath of fresh air after so many platinum VODs. I would love to see some silver or maybe even bronze gameplay too
I'll be frank and with the spread of playerbase I think those would be INCREDIBLY difficult. Honestly we just need more golds to step up and send stuff in!
We all gotta start somewhere and I think Gold is it
Gold is so frustrating. Most matches someone drops out early. And most the time on oddball they won’t even pick the ball up. More worried about kills the obj. Sad
i think legitimate silver players are incredibly rare but if they watch my content id love a video haha
@@VanadamYTI'll see what I can do
I have missed these videos. I have watched pretty much all of these that you have made. Your coaching is so good it changed the way I think about this game. I still suck but that's just because I need to practice what you taught me lol
im really glad i continue to help! i missed making content but life got in the way. weekly videos back! Platinum this week!
Awesome video Adam! These allow you to teach in a lot more ways opposed to Plat or Diamond vids. Enjoyed it! 😃👍
Cheers Luke! probably a little below your rank but glad to see you enjoy it (and your discord message made me laugh)
This was very helpful. I’ve not surpassed gold 6 and I can’t believe how many easy mistakes like throwing myself at the objective. Thank you for making this.
Glad it was helpful! you have so many videos you can go and watch as we've been doing this for almost a year now! :) hope they help
Everyone at Gold 6 is trying too hard to get Platinum. They stop doing the things that got them to Gold 6.
I feel seen... And I don't like it 😅
then i did my job!!!
These videos are good reminders that fundamentals can fix alot of bad habits. I main social modes, but I've been itching to try ranked again and I know I'll have to remind myself to not jump, mind reticle placement and pie the room. It's like you were talking Dir to me lol. 😂
that's the best reaction i can get from a viewer. if you're around those ranks or you feel I'm directly addressing stuff you do my work is done!
Good stuff! Last season I placed in Gold on both my accounts and just slayed out of them. I think most gold players can get out if they can fix their own skills, and not even worry about objective strategy, spawns, etc.
yes! i tried to do that in this video and just focus on his own game play rather than team mates.
Exactly.
We’re back baby
yeee boiiiiiiiiiii
I think with the new bandit starts, the meta has changed, and people who don't have good individual skill expression are falling down the ladder. A lot of Golds were Plats previous seasons, and these were the Plats that have bad aim, who crutched the BR too much, and were poor with sandbox weapons. I think the key to getting out of Gold is getting good with the Bandit rifle, and team shooting. Learn how to win your 1s, focus on the 5 shot, and don't worry a ton about strafing. Yes, there will be many times you will have to carry burgers who have no idea what they are doing, or who think they are Rambo and are going to kill everyone on the map by themselves. I have a few gold friends, and their main common mistakes are ego challenging everybody, having horrible aim, and running around the map with no concept of what they are supposed to be doing. They couldn't get the idea of team shooting, so I told them, go follow each other, and try to steal each other's kills. Now one of them is in Platinum. Ultimately, if you can consistently get over 60% accuracy, and top damage every game in Gold, you won't be in Gold very long, that's a guarantee.
“Bad gunfight hygiene”
Love that haha
Don’t through your nades so early if they have no real effect on the Map shooting you gun will have the same effect here 0:36
its always good to keep a nade in the pocket
Nice video man. I recently changed my controller layout to Bumper Jumper so I can start strafing. You are 100 percent correct about no strafing in gold. I almost never strafe but changed my controller layout so I can use the left stick to crouch and strafe.
Glad I could help. Strafing is so important as you go up the ranks as people miss much less often on stationary targets. most people can hit very fast moving targets at diamond
Thanks so much for being back Vanadam! Can you do some tips for season 5 Plat and Diamond level too? Would really appreciate it.
Sure thing! Platinum this week, will try to find diamond for the following week!
Good stuff here. Fundamentals are so important.
exactly how i want viewers to feel about gold gameplay :)
Very helpful. Because of u im out of gold currently p3,i used to get +5 in p1 rank, now i get +10 on p3 just by playing smart and not jumping from powers position to chase
Thank you for these
my pleasure!
100% think you should do an Onyx review. Your viewers would learn a lot from it. They'd be able to see things that we do, how we play and how we control and handle sets ups!
i agree it has been awhile since we've covered onyx gameplay!
no way i met you in Blackpool 😂 would be interested what comments you'd make on my gameplay
Blackpool was a blast, great to have met ya hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! feel free to send a video in.
Pleaseee do some more of these - other game modes?
Ive got to high gold 6 and cant get out the death trap 😅
Go play socials and do really badly... Then aim for a 1.0kd while playing the objective as much as you can.
I’m in the same boat, I’m always best k/d on my team and just keep loosening way more matches than I win, I look on halo tracker after matches and see I’m usually playing previous diamonds and plats (at lest 2 guys in every game) and I am on their level! This stupid system makes it feel impossible to win consistently. It keeps me at gold 5
platinum this week! if you'd like some more gold gameplay please let me know / feel free to send in!
I think the number one thing that anyone playing Ranked can do, despite teammates or personal skill is be on mic. There are plenty of games where I've won where all the players have better K/D than our team, but the communication helped us win. There are also times when I'm the only one marking or on mic and "carrying" where we could get easy wins just on simple communication. I appreciate these videos and take them seriously because I'm trying to rank of out Gold in Infinite, but it's still almost impossible unless you're only teaming up. Last time I joined a party with just one person, we both were pretty average (positive K/D, but nothing crazy), but went 7-0 just off communication alone.
comms is super underrated even pings!
Yep there is an example of my gameplay 😝
hope this was insightful!
Here is another crazy strat I did to blast my way out of Gold solo queueing. Your team is going 1 direction, so you go the other direction when you spawn in. What typically happens is the enemy Golds will get too focused on your teammates, and you will get behind them most of the time getting backsmacks or clean up kills. It makes it look like your team is hitting them from all sides, and they will get demoralized, get destroyed, and then predictably rage quit. Running opposite of them ONLY works if you are running or curb sliding if you know how to do that. If you are bot walking and being Mr Sloth because you watched the Dodd Mcfodds videos from 2 seasons ago, this won't work, and then the enemy will destroy you in 3 and 4v1s because they wiped your team and caught you lolly gagging by yourself on the other side of the map. But if you are running, you also get to give the enemy chaotic spawns as well and cause more confusion for them. This does not work once you hit mid Platinum though. But you can get away with this easily in Gold 6 especially.
To better illustrate this concept is first avoid the mid at all costs, just run the parameter of the map. Let's say on streets, your team spawns in C for instance, and they run to arcade, then you should go purple street, but don't just run like a doo doo brain, when you have sight lines on your team, check them, then run if no action and keep rotating until you run into your team, and then keep running past them. Only break from this to get spanker, or help contest it, otherwise you can run opposite of the team, and cause chaos for the enemy. They will always feel like someone is behind them, and they may even start camping, and becoming sitting ducks for you and your team. Also, pre aim the areas where you most likely will encounter enemies, so when coming up purple pre aim the cafe, and then back A, when you get to bandit spawn check the sight line to PD and hologram, then continue rotating back A then into PD, then to B so on and so forth.
1 last situation. 2 of your teammates run 1 side, and 1 runs the other side, go with the 1. Then it will be 2 on both sides, and that is common to see in high Platinum and low Diamond lobbies. Congrats your team is playing like high Plats, and they don't know it. Also, remember to team shoot, so challenge yourself to steal their kills.
alot of my playstyle evolves from similar play like this. it's somewhat akin to a lurker / flanking role in games like valorant.
you really won't find tactical awareness like this in gold so players won't expect or anticipate flanks or coordinated crossfire at any point really. Good Input dude. thanks again for your Continued viewership and involvement. also, sorry about your submission last time. life kind of got in the way and yeah. I let you down.
please feel free to try again I'll bump you to first. :)
@@VanadamYT it's all good. 😊 I'm on the discord too, and just saw you might be busy again for a bit so lmk when it's all good to send and I'll send it again. 😊 Sorry i send wetransfer links that expire within 7 days but my Google drive is almost full 😂. I do music stuff also and usually we send things through wetransfer, plus my Google drive is full of music projects and software i haven't used in a while so i need to clean it up a bit. 😊 I think at the time of the video i was low Plat, but now I finally crossed into Diamond territory and am going back and forth from High Platinum to low Diamond. 😊 I always keep your advice in mind when I'm playing because now at this level small mistakes are being punished a lot. Your videos really helped me take my game to the next level. 😊😊 Lmk when the coast is clear and I'll send that video again. Would love to see your perspective on how we performed in that "beef" game. The enemy team had 3 onyx players and a low plat, my team had 2 onyx players, a diamond, and me at the time a low platinum. Everyone was mic'd up, and this was a must win game because the enemy platinum thought it would be cool to get Onyx players to crush me at the time to make himself feel great, so i got my own onyx and diamonds on gold Smurf accounts to even the score. 😅 I figure the viewers would love this. 😅
Gold is a mess. I got back into Halo a few weeks ago, and I'm stuck between gold 2 and 3. I primarily get water head teammates.
Hey brother! Really appreciate your content, I’ve always been big into shooters through out the years and just recently have found halo infinite. I am plat 3 currently with 18 hours in ranked and a 7.03 KDA. Do you know of any where I could find a few guys to play with? Possibly a discord server so I can quickly learn callouts and hopefully take my play to the next level? Thanks again!
glad you're enjoying it. that kda suggests your probably diamond 2 or so! keep at it!
my own discord server! we have alot of platinum and gold players.

For the segment in the 1st two min. I think you are saying that it is a bad position to be especially for a gold player. But I think You should be praising the idea of what the player was doing. He is watching spawns from the enemy team, which is really good. He is playing a long sight line that is hard to challenge off of spawn also good. But the execution was off. If he was doing the same idea from top gold he would have been in a stronger position with more escape opportunities I didn't see that get touch on But maybe there is more of the video that was cut out.
another extremely under utilized thing is pinging the guy pinged a few times but he could really give teammates more info.
@@iiKenTroN for sure it's hard to hit the right level every time in these so I appreciate it when people such as yourself come in and highlight things I missed. cheers!
The worst is it doesn't matter what rank are you teammates will always let you down I was diamond 2 now im Plat 6 again for the 3rd time bc teammates don't know how to play Running around the map by themselves and don't know how to play objective
I get your frustration but everyone says this at every rank. if this was true pros wouldn't be top rank every season.
sometimes people have bad games and sometimes we have bad games. your rank is the sum of your best worst performances ;)
Just like my dia lobbies 😅
Gold is easy
for some! it's a matter of perspective. could say the same about platinum and low diamond. :)
It doesn’t matter. If you’re not naturally good at fps you won’t rank up in this game. If you solo q your teammates in gold will always de rank you.
if you're not naturally good then you need to practice. application beats talent :)
@@VanadamYT not with this ranking system. Unless you always have a 4 stack of people with the same goals. If you solo q you will never get out of gold.
All this player needed was someone to tell him where to stand and look and this game would’ve been an easy win. Live coaching would be so much better for these guys.
@mopbucket7297 I did do live coaching but life makes it difficult to do at the moment. so this is the next best thing :)
@@APatchworkCanvas wrong. All you have to do to get out of gold is to be good at winning your gunfights, and that's it. Teamwork is almost nonexistent and is not really needed. Every Gold has aim problems, and ego challenges too much. Learn how to get out of bad situations, and learn how to win your gunfights, and you will get as far as Platinum 2 before you have to be worried about setups, spawn control, etc. If you play at 3am, you aren't playing Golds. Gold 6 is a smurf lobby at 3am. You will be facing Diamonds, and Onyxs who can't get a game that late at night, and just want to "vibe" with friends, which means "sweating" for you.
Don't be a bot
some gold players are usually very capable in 1 fundamental but very bad at the rest
