As you rank up past Ascendant i think it's important to start thinking about an exit strategy back into the real world. How to talk to mature adults, how to walk in the mountains etc. have fun!
@@winslowiscracked3891 literally the most npc comment ever we get it you're high immo the only reason you even made this comment is so you can let everyone know you're a high rank on a video game and respectfully thats cringe as hell
@@Ditpo What's even more cringe is being upset over someone being proud of their accomplishments. He was just trying to agree with the original comment.
@@KeyrowZB being proud of your accomplishments is not a bad thing; even i have to admit video game or not immortal 3 is still a very daunting task that takes time and effort to achieve however in my opinion his comment just comes off as douchey and arrogant and not to mention its in the atomic aged regurgitated "as a human blah blah blah" format which pisses me off to no end
I'm gold and I definitely feel you with the ''get comfortable with the gunfights to free up mental space for other things.'' My gunfights are pretty okay in the dms but when I go ranked I get dizzy insanely fast and it makes me lose a lot of gunfights that I would have won if I was not distracted by all the other stuff going on in my head.
when you play ranked be kind to yourself, if you die in a gunfight try to think about what went wrong in it. another part of mentality is being positive in vc, i know it seems silly but most ppl i meet in game are super chill and it helps take the edge off.
@@autumnleaves3012 Thanks for the advice. I think I get overwhelmed by using comms sometimes too and I spend more time thinking of the right comm rather than saying them. What rank are you?
Don't duel (in game) with a person to be better than them... but duel to a better version of yourself. Try defeating your past worse self than defeating that person in your lobby
I find in Silver that there's advanced theory play with suboptimal gunplay. I can fake, lurk, default, count util, track where players should be, predict how the enemy plays, but I can't always shoot or react to it. Practicing my aim and mechanical tech is where I lack.
It's important to take these as general guidelines, rather than an actual rank accurate assessment. For me I know that even tho I was diamond, my aim was dogshit and working on it for two weeks got me to Ascendant. I still need improvement as a 0.9kd Reyna player 😭😭
Immortal player here. Love these kind of vids. However, I think to say that you should only start to learn how to default in Immortal + is not correct. That's something you should be learning in Diamond minimum and as you climb higher like in Ascendant, you start to apply those strategies more consistently and effectively. That's part of what got me to Immortal personally.
We need a guide from you on picking a main role or agent. I've been struggling to figure out what agent/role I'm good at. Sometimes I'm able to carry on a certain agent and other times I get owned. If you could explain a bit on general playstyles, and what type of a player suites what role kinda thing it would be helpful. Plus there are not good videos on this topic except charla7an's video, where he just explains his opinion on "what agents will help you improve fastest" kinda thing.
you will never genuinely just instantly be good at an agent and find an agent perfectly suited and intuitive for you. in my opinion it’s best to play a role that already somewhat fits your playstyle and a role you find ENJOYABLE. if you enjoy it you’ll be much more motivated to improve
Thing is, I'm hardstuck between plat 2 and plat 3, always ranking up and deranking and I cant really know why. Sometimes I get immo smurfs but I dont try to blame it on them since I cant do anything about it (even though it is a major problem in many video games including valorant) I've watched hundreds of videos on valorant trying to improve but there is just this one root cause which I'm clueless about. I guess it has something to do with my weakness/vulnerability which I need to fix ASAP.
i hit asc 3 last summer now i dont have much time to play so im asc 1 and every single game people are toxic or throwing its do annoying it this point i dont enjoy playing anymore
I didnt play this game for years started to play ranked on the hard reset and got placed into diamond 1, went on a 12 winstreak solo que everygame my teammates where just smarter and knew how to hold angles and get info. Got to ascendant 3 80rr and then lost 6 in a row every game i had 1 or 2 teamates afk for the first 3 or 4 rounds, had teammates who said im going to make sure we lose then throw. I think its all good with improving your own mechanics and gameplay but it still doesnt stop any losses that you will get from the coin flip. Iv had consistently immortal 2s and 3s go 2 and 20 in these games and have no knowledge of what you expect that rank to have. Which just says to me ranked means nothing i dont think there is any difference between any of these levels maybe at radiant and most imm 3 players but everything else under is just a huge coinflip and no major difference in the skill gap
I'm in plat and on a 12 loss streak.. idk what to think anymore i dont even enjoy valo. Dia 3 enemies who purely aim diff, 60hz monitor, sigh im ass too
dw, just a couple days ago i was on a 9 loss streak all the way from plat 3 to plat 1, and just soon after ive currently won 9 out of my last 10 games it gets better soon
Rwnked to diamond last act twice fron g3. This act though, hardstuck gold2. I just can’t seem to get out. Seriously have no idea what tge issue might be
Hi, i am stuck high Ascendant for like 5 acts now. Ive hit immo few times but just for like a week to drop again and i feel like i am doing my job well and i play eith team mates well. I think my problem is winning the 1v1. Any help?
do you have valoplant? check your valoplant and see whats wrong, what decisions you made are resulting in the lost rounds and where are you taking your 1v1s. there are "favourable" 1v1s and "nonfavourable" 1v1s, meaning there are specific 1v1s that you would win 60~80% of the time, and there are 1v1s that you are lucky that you even won it. understanding that would shoot you up directly to middle of imt 2
If it’s 1s, you probably have bad aim, lack confidence, or have bad positioning/movement. You should try and figure out which one it is and try to fix it
I feel my progression was so different xd. I went to diamond on tryharding aim/mechanics only. And to asc by making my comna better and calling macro for teammates. That's where I am now. I never one tricked agent but I mainly play duelists/flash initiators. Maybe that's what is holding me back now, I feel like I got it a bit backwards xd. (still got only like 600 hours on Val, so I guess it's going OK)
Dopai I was imm 2 last act and am currently stuck in the depths of ascendant, do u have any tips to help me get back up I’m losing all motivation of playing currently
@sakuta_fps Why are u feeling the need to post this answer that literally doesn't help anyone. He obviously just gave a suggestion in which he stated what he thinks could rise the quality of the thumbnails.
@@sakutaFPS you focus on the video. Reading is beyond your capabilities. Or maybe bcoz there wasn't a subway surfers clip under the comment so you couldn't focus while reading words like "a suggestion" "Maybe".
im silver and i mainly pick open since eveyone just autolock jett or reyna then 0-20 worst part is they lurking everygame or wont entry/take space. so i have to play controller and entry fragger at the same time. any tips for me? also im a slow aimer, i used to use a 0.7 800 dpi i dont hit shots most of the time but now i use 0.285 800 dpi kinda slow to turn 180 but i hit my shots
you dont need to 180. If you have gamesense and util then there is no way for you to 180, unless jett dash, satchel, omen tp, etc, which 2 swipes to 180 is enough
when i was in gold, i match mvpd every single game, i had a 1.5 kd, 31% hs, and i would always lose more rr than i gained, i simply couldn't get out, i mad e anew account got placed a little higher than my rank, but still match mvpd all my placements every game but one, nd climbed my way to immo1 in that season, i think if you have most of these things down and you still arent climbing and losing to much, just make a new account.
are these for eu or na servers beacuse in eu you flash get 1 tapped smoked off? 1 tapped not even peek 1 tapped its very hard to ran up in eu and these tips did not help me at all i think they are for na servers but very good video
In that "low, mid, high" elo thing, you straight up forgot about bronze, which would fall into low elo, putting then gold in mid elo and asc into high elo. Leaving that detail aside, this video covers pretty much everything you need to know in order to rank up faster, great shit man
came here for the title, tired of losing ? nope, why is everyone make this serious shit, its a game so just having fun in iron is all its best, cause above that player expect shit from you and they all so mean and take games seriously like its their lifeline. get a life
if you want to play more casually, queue any other game mode. people play competitive to actually get good and push their limits. some of them get stuck sometimes, so they need an advice how to improve. and yes, some people have fun playing competitively, they enjoy the feeling of victory. if you don't want people to expect anything from you, why won't you exclusively play swiftplay then? since ranked is such a stress.
please don't say that ever again, the jump even from 400/500rr to ~imm 2 is INSANE, and from diamond its even crazier, calling both high elo is just stupid :/
@@camdenmartin2321 diamonds are not insane at the game, and you could argue that low immortal players are shit at the game, just with certain higher understanding of fundamentals Above average in terms of population rank distribution does not = high elo
