Great video man.
One realisation that helped me get over ranked anxiety and go from bronze to ascendant in 2 months ( busy day life only played at night while maintaining other things in life)
is that "rank's just a bunch of pixels on the screen, losing a rank wont suddenly make you have memory loss and permanently make you a worse off player, so focus more on being a better player than hoping to see a cooler jpeg on your ranked history screen"
and something i often tell others too
" its rather good to have matches where you cant perform well, anyone can snowball a great start into momentum late game but its really when you face enemies who put up a fight when the real fun begins, you certainly are here to grind ranked to be better right? so be excited on people punishing you on your mistake cause if you take it as constructive critism it'd provide you a lot of personal insights into how to be a better player than any guide you find online ever will"
Exactly, I love this and will hopefully will be doing more videos offering this advice as well!
Bro wtf this is such great advice. This is what that one sage voiceline also motivated me. Just that firece "FIGHT!" Or "WE GO!" Before the round starts!
Thank you rooney! I really appreciated the reminder that those weirdly poor performances we have sometimes are outliers. They aren't representative of our usual gameplay so we shouldn't worry about them. You put it really well.
Bro, Thank you so much for these videos. I was hardstuck Plat but because of your videos, I managed to break into Diamond
Good stuff!! Keep it up!!!
You the man Rooney! Love your vids and thanks a lot!
This is honestly the best guide video ever for me because mechanically i know im still not good so i can improve that but mentally i didnt really understand what it was or doesnt know how to explain it and this video validates all my insecurities in the game.Thankyou for this short and concise video and merry chrismas
love watching your videos, u have a sooth calming voice. anyways Merry Christmas!!
Thanks!!! Merry Christmas!
I love your voice and your advice was really helpful, thank you! ❤
I really appreciate the kind words, thanks so much and hope to see you continue watching my videos leading into 2024!
great concise well made video, genuinely insightful and different from most of the "heres how to hit immortal" videos that are intended solely for a view
i immediately noticed improvement, ur mentality & confidence makes or breaks you
Glad it helped! In anything in life that you want to strive to get better in, the most important part above all else is being confident and having faith in yourself to succeed!
I am so thankful for this video😭
Glad you enjoyed and learned from it!
idk how but u really made my day
Keep up the great content man!
Will do my best!
Man cooked with this video, to add to the topic - for me as an immortal player what helped me with anxiety in-game was geniuenly just imagining that all my enemies are bots that can't shoot back at me (firing range type beat), that alone made me play with more confidence and as such more consistently.
Damn, I really needed that. Went 3/16 on Reyna in Diamond yesterday lol
Hopefully you can go 16/3 today!!!
what is your riot id? i want to report you for trolling
@@lila-yk4fv i want to report you for probably being a toxic teammate (:
right. sometimes im afraid to even pick agents im good at because im scared of not performing with them
HUGE SPEECH BRUTHA!!
Awesome video thanks
Yeah, thats some real advice. I appreciate that. Imma sub
Appriciaite it! I hope it really helped in not just Valorant but in your life as well!
What helped me a lot was unbinding the scoreboard key (tab). I’ve only been playing for a couple weeks but I kept comparing myself to everyone in my game when I was bot fragging. I knew I was new, and couldn’t be held to the same accomplishments as my gold+ friends/teammates but it still got to me a lot
Being able to just focus on myself cleared my head enough to get to bronze! My goal is gold by the end of January so wish me luck!
good video, i think everyone needs to see this. also, what is the background music?
thank you man this encouraged me alot to grind out of plat :)
Good luck! Hope you can reach that milestone!
As a radiant I used to suffer from this too until recently. Especially when i was playing against known good players or some pros i was anxious. I kept performing inconsistently due to bad decision making from the anxiety. What helped me is when I started to just only think about what im gonna do next and how im gonna play with my team and thinking about whats the best play in this situation im in. Just focusing on that and thinking about nothing else helps a lot. Now I rarely have poor performances like I used to.
your video greatly touched me I am an silver player scared of queing up and losing even if I could get way higher even if i have 2 kd even if i'm almost always top fragging my few games where i'm pplaying bad scare me for the most but your video gave me new hopes so thank you and continue your vids like that
Thank you 😊
Honestly the best tip that helped me see exponential growth in my skill is to just simply try not to care too much about your rank, and care more about what you can learn from the game you are playing. Also, random side tip I felt like I needed to share, when you’re in an aim duel, try to focus more on the enemies head than your crosshair. Your crosshair will naturally follow where you look. (At least for me)
Thank you
No problemo! Hope this video helped just a little!
I just reached diamond after playing multiple games against ascendants but now after i hit diamond these things started affecting me. Thank you for this
I wish there was a video like this when I started playing the game. At this point, I've probably sunk more hours in the range than in actual comp matches because of ranked anxiety.
Great video. I really play the game like a game that it is and often try to improve but not to stress too much over it and now I'm beginning to improve more and more day by day
It's been only 2 months of me being jn valorant and I'm already comparable to a gold or even a plat player but am hardstuck at iron because of my random teammates as I solo queue :(
Keep grinding and don’t blame your teammates on why you’re stuck at a rank, you will never improve if you blame things you can’t control. However, try to improve in the things you can, there is a reason why I’m Immortal, not because I have crazy aim or insane mechanics of a “radiant” player but because I just had fun and played to improve and didn’t care about toxic teammates or bad ones either.
Just got to diamond today after being stuck in plat for at least 4 months but I can feel that my journey is actually just started not ended
in the boost your confidence segment i swear it is playing the jujustu kaisen intro Kaikai Kitan
this has motivated me to hit plat
that earned u a sub
Hope you learned a lot!
4:50-5:05 Me in 2023 😂😂
Fun that trainer used some of mine examples for a video.
Great video i watched it during my midnight valorant session and now I got 5 wins in a row and got some amazing games in one of them everyone treated me as king and i top fragged and the enemies were playing bad anxiously because they didn't watch this video
bro's new nickname is the "King of Valorant" after watching this
@@rooneyFPS On god
i got to the level where eggwick calls me the man the myth the legend
Rooney you are the only legit valorant youtuber when it comes to improving in competative.
Appreciate the support brother, hopefully I can make more videos to help you guys out!
im on my rankup game to get gold 1 and i have alot of anxiety, its just that feeling of 'what if i loose' and remain in silver. im so close to gold, its just a mental thing. losing is apart of the game, i just need to accept that
thank you daddy
These days, whenever I play even if it's just a spike rush I always feel the rush of adrenaline coursing through me.
Tip. Dont spam tab to see the kda. Only use it to see the money and ultimates
thanks for credit dacoit
Always giving credit to the incredible background footage!
FINALLY a high elo player who didn't start in Gold or Silver lol, you have no idea how refreshing that is to hear.
Broke out of Iron last April and managed to get into Plat, currently struggling between G2 and G3 because school, but I'm gonna give it one more year and see where i end up
Keep it up! But try not to limit yourself and say “give it one more year” your in no rush and your main goal for the game should always be having fun as much ss you can! And I can guarantee you that you will improve much faster because of it!
Great video. But I think I have imposter syndrom because I want to go pro.
i played a game a few mins ago, i started 1/7 and finished 33/12 as mvp and got +38rr lol. ty.
That’s what a strong mental can get you! Never give up to early!
Alright... Next year we're gonna be better... Couldn't get back to plat in the last episode, but 2024 is diamond and beyond. Mark my words.
thanks
Hope this video helped in any way!
aren't*
taking out anxity in valorant is simple just imaginine about ur crushs best moments itll work out and it wont if u r in a break up situation its always work wor me may be it will work for u too
can i have a background song list?😅
i get so nervous about valorant that my hands start swearing when playing aimlabs. thanks man
Glad it helped in anyway I can!
What advice would you give to a player who wants to go and play as a pro and everyday works towards that and the thing he is struggling right now is fear of playing soloq.
If you want to go pro, you need to be comfortable doing things by yourself. being an esports Pro is a very lonely path and the only way for you to reach the top is for you to understand this and be able to overcome this in order to achieve your dreams.
I heard that you need to play alot in scrims and even have a decent social media for exposure.Either hit immortal or even better,radiant.Then you can try to get into T3 teams and make your way up.The pro scene is catered to teamworks so u cant really just soloq.Try to find teams you can play with (because its better chemistry and you can avoid toxic players who will just ruin your mood).These are just what i heard,so you can do your own research and listen to what resonates with you
The thing about Valorant being just a game is all you need, tbh. It's just pixels. Unless you're trying to go pro, or trying to play as a job, i.e streaming, There's no need to be anxious, to be downed by the Jetts and Reynas in your team who have nothing better to do nor will reach anything higher than their 30-kill games, because it's just a game. Play with your team properly, still strive to improve but remember that at the end of the day, we'll all turn off our PCs at some point and purse tangible things unaffected by whether you whiffed that last kill or aced 5 times in a game.
Just have fun.
Yup, completely agree! Also, having fun often times results in you performing better anyways!
Truly motivating (silver)
Hopefully we can turn that to gold soon!
Will try my best :)
I almost teared up watching this... none of my friends invite me to games anymore and i'm too afraid to ask cus they play together and rank up and i'm stuck by myself too scared to q up again ;-;
I know its scary, but try to take that first step to ask. I know for me personally I sometimes feel like a burden when asking to hangout but most of the time, its all in your head.
0:17
as a hardstuck silver for 3 years this hit a little too hard 😢
My advice is take a 1mg melatonin tablets per night so u can sleep well ......when ur sleep is complete u play well
As much as I agree sleep is a key part to ranking up, do not rely on melatonin to go to bed.
I dont get rank anxiety anymore. I get tilted because of stubborn, no comming, knife out entry teammates lol.
No need to get tilted over that, yes it’s annoying but that’s just how it is sometimes and I can GUARANTEE that this won’t happen in every game you play.
if i play ranked i am so nervous that i am shaking so hard and cant perform well
Don’t be nervous at all! Treat it as is, a game, and play to have fun and improve, not to have a silly cool match mvp for the cost of your enjoyment and win
Where was this video when I grinded the game every day. I barely even play anymore :(
Hopefully you can get back on it soon and have a bit of a different perspective this time around!
hey uh you mentioned to credit the song writers and artists, but you didn't actually credit them in your video, so I was wondering what song was what.
Good video, but been silver since i started till present day. Should complete my homework before playing 😂
Definitely try to get all the non-negotiables out of your day taken care of before worrying about anything else!
I am a Neon main and the toxicity is the reason why I had to stop playing this game. Love every aspect of Valorant and I think this is the best game in the market but the community is so shit and toxic that it affects my mental health. It always starts on agent select when they see I locked Neon and I always hear "Pros arent playing Neon so why are you trying to throw my games F'**** id***"
There is only so much before everything starts to affect you.....
What do I do though if I didn’t improve but actually got worse? I’m now two to three ranks lower than when I started years ago.
Ask yourself, have you been playing consistently, kept up with an aim routine, stuck with 1-3 agents, tried playing with a duo, consitnley played dms, etc etc
L
Ok i admit i kinda laught of myself when u mentioned "skillcapped guides" vidéos, thats totally me, looking up for details of the game that doesnt truly matters in the most case (like deadzoning and stuff like that) but yeah sometimes i hardly believe in myself and stay confident of my skills... i mean im "just" silver ATM but some plat+ players keep telling stuff like "you re not that bad, are u rly silver? theres no way you're just silver with your aim etc" so yeah i know i can have a decent level of gameplay and i dont pretend to worth diam+ but sometimes i just get angry at myself and says "yeah that why i still silver while my sister of heart already hitted immortal" and i just feel bad for her, i want to make her proud too but it seems i cant find the right way somehow so thanks for your positivity (and thanks for reading if u did it)
I hope you are able to break out of silver soon!
@@rooneyFPS ill try to ;)
progress i made: b2 to s1 back to b3 :C
Two steps forward and one step back, is still one step forward. Keep pushing on!
@@rooneyFPS just got back to silver :D
Here's another note about toxic players:
some people will always be toxic. you being a bot frag does not cause them to be toxic (they are toxic anyways)
I played many games where I top fragged and some random player is complaining and shouting and being toxic every round we lose (they think we can win 13-0 ?!! )
just mute them :) ggs ~~!
Exactly! People are just going to be dickheads, however it’s your control to have that effect you or not.
Hey I don’t know if anyone will be able to answer this but I’m an omen main in bronze 1 what would be the best thing to focus on to climb to the next rank
play more. it is really as simple as that. You are still relatively "new" to the game (because of your rank) and it's really just putting more reps in. I could lie to you that there is a secret to ranking up but just like in any other thing you are trying to improve and become proficient at. The best way to improve is to do continuous reps and learn from each and every round you play! Hope it helps and don't forget to have fun along the way!
@@rooneyFPS thanks and is reviewing your own gameplay or just playing better for improving or a little bit of both
I would say both would be optimal! But nothing beats actual practice in my opinion!
@@rooneyFPS gotcha
I matched with a trashtalking 2/13 raze and after we lost that round i picked iso and top fragged and won out of spite😂😂
Haha i look back at my games were i lost 35kill games and look at my teamates poor performance
If you went into a CS lobby and said you were anxious, they would insult you.
Not saying its good or bad, but just think about how hilariously dumb this concept of being anxious in a video game is to most people.
I disagree actually, people in all paths of life feel anxious and I’m not sure if it’s right either to compare two completely different games like this because everyone can feel this way. From a player who has put many many hours in both games, I have seen both of the player base feel “anxious” even the top pros you look up to you. This includes everywhere you see like the gym, work place, and academics. You don’t need to have a reason to feel anxious because that is just an emotion we receive and what games are MEANT to get out of us ( that’s why many are so addicted). But I do agree that it is dumb to feel this way in video games, however I understand thst many people can’t help it so that’s why I made these videos and try to make videos to aid this. :)
Did you just take random clips from twitter?
Nah these are all my clips here, I’m kinda washed I know
If your mental gets ruined by someone yelling at you, you got bigger issues than performance anxiety in Val 😂
To be fair, this goes both ways.
@@rooneyFPS yeah I could see it

Too bad I don't play valorant for fun mahaha
Literally torture 🗿

Bro is too quick with it!
@@rooneyFPS i dont know if its placebo but idk why but i started in iron 3 and i started watching u when i was like s2 and now im plat 1
@@vAntaFPS bro is just himothy
i will tell you how to beat valorant anxiety. man up and quit stressing over a video game
I wouldn't say "man up" but definitely take it less seriously. This can be applied to a lot of areas in life as well. No point in stressing in things you can't control, might as well enjoy every step of the way!
Bro thinks only men play this game
It's a Competitive Game with 1 shots but I get what you mean. Most people get anxious because they wanna not get stuck in a rank forever.
Unrated exists but the wins there don't feel like they actually count so people spam comp. Then comes the performance Anxiety knowing this is where all the aim demons dwell💀.
Toxic masculinity at its best
@@idclol2883i dont think you know what “man up” means?
