    The scout is a really good second round weapon.
    - Its cheap
    - Accurate even without scoping,
    - Easier to hit shots since movement is slow
    - Bodyshots still do significant damage
    - Sometimes ppl dont buy shield on second round

    • @ChillMickelson
      @ChillMickelson 2 ปีที่แล้ว +42

      It’s normally seen as the better second round or eco buy on Breeze because of how open and long some engagements are. Specter excels at that medium-close to close range.

    • @GraviQuate
      @GraviQuate 2 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      to add, most people won't buy shields 2nd rd if they lost pistol so it's basically a better op cuz of the hipfire accuracy. if u win 2nd rd you also have the option to buy phandals onto 3rd rd

Run-throwing it gives about 10 extra meters, yet they always stay in the air (unless blamo'ed earlier) for 1.5 (or so) seconds. Just an interesting thing I'd thought I'd share :)

    "Is there a better second round gun than the spectre?" In imm2 me and my buddies all use stinger. it takes a bit of practice to get used to the idea that you only have enough bullets to kill 1 or 2 if you are lucky, but its significantly better than spectre. If you look at the damage numbers it only loses like 6% damage at long range so you can actually do really high damage with one good 3 shot burst.
    The main trick for med-long range is to shoot about 2-4 bullets and mid spray press right click to switch to burst mode, then finish the fight with bursts. This is because your movement speed is too slow when right clicked, so you want to swing with speed then swap to burst. My friend SmuggaD is able to go even with me for kills in 1v1 dm with a stinger when I am using vandal, its insane how strong the stinger can be when well practiced.

    • @xxcsokixx
      @xxcsokixx 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I just picked it up recently as I had enough of the spectre. I did not test it after the nerfs but the left click spray is almost always good for 1 sometimes 2-3. It is a very strong eco buy.

    • @smuggaD
      @smuggaD 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey, that's me
      I picked up the stinger recently after seeing theScore esports video on skully and watching+analyzing some of skully's twitter clips who is known for his usage of the stinger in radiant elo. I used to buy bulldog, guardian, and the spectre as a 2nd round buy, but I felt like all three of those miss something. I like using the stinger as a 2nd round buy, win or lose, as it have high potential to net a kill thanks to its high rate of fire and being able to pull some insane long range kills(if you can control its random burst). It's also highly economically efficient as it only cost 950 credits(as of May 6th 2022) and you're usually able to buy all your utility after winning pistol. The weapon be can decent on an eco round too because of its rate of fire and the burst being able to kill opponents far away.
      The stinger is definitely not as bad as people paint it out to be. With all that being said, there are some caveats about this weapon: recoil is pretty bad, recoil reset is bad, damage can be better against heavy armor opponents, and you have to reload after almost every kill.

    I don’t actually think valorant is inherently bad for content creators, rather it’s bad for long-form content. Considering that short-form content platforms like tik tok are incredibly popular, and valorant does its best to be trendy, I think it suits the games vision better to focus more on that. (Unfortunately for myself and fellow warowl connoisseurs, this doesn’t line up with our vision for what we want games to be).
    Just to hammer home this point- agents are relatively simple with few mechanics, with easily reproducible quirks. This lends itself well to a short video explaining it without much depth. It’s very hard to display a valorant experience that isn’t very quickly reproducible in game. It feeds the ecosystem very well, but at the expense of much of the game’s potential.

    9:30 for breeze, buy Ares, and use it with ADS + crouching spraying from as far away as possible (that's its most effective usage case scenario) though now with the recent buffs it's also pretty usable close range too. Alternatively, get a marshal aka the scout

    Theres a lot of psychological content on what marathoning does to you :)
    It's pretty cool how you showcase how your mentality changes over time both based on how you lose, win or whether for how long you haven't eaten and such. How your mood swings, which might not even be because of your performance but more because of your reluctance to food intake!
    We need a case study of WarOwl doing more videoplaying! haha.

    god i hope they bring in the replay system soon. i swear they said it was "in the works" when the game first came out but its been 2 years since then. really missing a matchmaking academy for this game, getting to a rank where some games i just feel like i forgot how to play the game. would love to see you break down some of your own games, i especially feel your comments about the cs:go brain - didnt realise that crouchspraying and the like were bad habits and am working hard to get rid of them. cant wait to see more valorant content from you :)

    Your talk about the loser mentality is so true. I play cs, but the friends I play with would give up mentally and start raging… even when we were winning sometimes. It just started changing recently, and the difference in how many games we win is incredible

    @TheWarOwl spent 10 hours playing Fade but still messed up the description of her abilities.
    It's okay tho, her kit is all over the place with deafen, blind, decayed, trails and all that jazz.
    (the Eye of Sauron gives the black trails to enemies, not the goopy sticky ball that holds them in place and decays them; ulti does not cause damage over time, but impact damage that recovers back to full in a few seconds)

  • @williambrown1094
    @williambrown1094 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I think you shouldn't try to burn yourself out, we want more warowl after all :)
    I suspect you could capture the heart of the "play for 10 hours" while making some small changes to keep your sanity. Examples being a forced break at 5-hr for food, smaller snack breaks at 2.5-3hr marks, or even changing it up and calling it "play for 2 days straight" but only do ~6hr each day.

  • @kaedy_e
    @kaedy_e 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome video! If you're feeling burned out over long sessions probably do like 10 games instead of 10 hours.
    Also, don't sleep on the marshall. It's the scout on steroids

    To respond to your question: The Spectre got nerfed hard when you spray more than 4 bullets, the Ares had its accuracy and recoil screwed hard, and the Stinger has gotten nothing but nerfs. Like when you first started the Marshal is still incredibly powerful if you know what you are doing (perfect accuracy, one tap, no falloff, and high mobility). The shotguns can work, but you have to play up close because of those random patterns. Omen got his stats restored and then some, so he is really good for getting up close and personal via his fast and consistent Dark Cover.

  • @CRAZYMONYmc
    @CRAZYMONYmc 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    9:19 if you win 1st round gaurdian+light shield is a good pick for a full buy. if they lost first they're likely not going to buy anything more than light shields on second making the whole enemy a 2 tap bodyshot as it does 130 in two. also the gaurdian can still hold its own in buy rounds with good aim especially on breeze with long angles. hope this is useful :)

    Hi, WarOwl. I just wanted you to know that I always find you to be so entertaining.
    Although it sucks to hear that it exhausts you to do this series at times (because this is honestly my favorite-- not that your other content isn't great as well. I just really enjoy seeing you play Valorant is all). Because I'd love to one day see a Playlist of you doing this with every character in the game. I would bingewatch the hell out of that!
    And maybe after you've that experience with all Agents, maybe you could give your take upon what's great about the Agents and how some things would be nice if they were to be changed. Like how you would make Neon a stronger pick, etc. (Truer words have never been spoken than you saying that the Marshall should be nerfed, or have it's price drastically raised. Thing's stupidly overtuned.)

    • @zacharyhutchison4006
      @zacharyhutchison4006 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wish he would do it all on one account tho. I get why pros feel the need, but doing it for a goofy YT video (in a game you' barely even care about) only encourages a problem that damages the game for everybody else.
      But sure, I'll believe that the account you spend 90% of your time on "just goofing around" isn't your main account ;) I didn't see that entire market for boosted/stolen valorant accounts!

    On big maps like Breeze, Guardian and Marshal are very good for second round. Marshal one shots enemies with no armor and Gaurdian two shots enemies with no or light armor. The first two bullets of Guardian go almost exactly where you are aiming.

  • @zoelove5253

      There's too much chinese corruption for valorant to ever have any competitive integrity. It's popular with twitchtards who like to show off their lower-middle class status symbols, but not with gamers.

    I honestly like buying the bulldog on second round sometimes, it's a bit ballsy since you go for broke more than you would with a spectre, but it's extremely helpful if you're playing a longer angle, such as watching mid link from cat on ascent.

    Haven't watched your content in a while, but found this video because I picked up Valorant again. I can say I would enjoy videos of you just playing valorant first person, something along the lines of "solo q to global elite". Not an original idea but I would watch that coming from you. Also, your CSGO guides were the best videos of that kind I saw for any game. Valorant has a shitton of (shity) guides, but making a compact library of guide videos on the most important topics (like you did for CSGO) would be absolutely stellar.

    for 2nd rd buys, you can try bulldog with light shields. it doesn't 1 tap to the head if the enemy has shields but at least the recoil reset and accuracy is similar to the phantom or vandal, long range engagements won't be as much of a pain. it's also good enough against phantom or vandals if u keep it into the 3rd rd
