@@LmaoLasooo I'd say stay consistent especially having a warm-up routine before you play each time. And use preplaced drones on ATK kind of like I do, freebies
The goat! Used your nighhaven upstairs bomb doc strat and have been getting guaranteed kills. You're amazing man. As always, love all the way from Pakistan
you really clutched them villa attacks, lighting people up left right and centre haha. I’d love to see mute game play, hes such a good operator for me in solo q since hes a 1 man team at somepoints. Counters so much and his guns insane paired with an smg secondary and a nitro. Top 5 defense operators for sure
Though I've hit champ last season, my attack is absolutely abysmal. Even though you are console watching you play and explaining what you are doing really helps out. I feel like I barely use my brain when attacking, but when I'm defending I use my util well and try to waste time if I'm roaming or holding site as an achor if needed by the team.
Good stuff man, especially on the defenses. Love to see actual utility usage and not just the running around and swinging everything with your gadgets still in pocket haha. Keep it up and you'll get there on the attacks too
Dude your vids are something special i recently discovered you , and honestly they way you play your commentary in the vids have helped me a lot cause i solo Q in ranked and now im in silver i know still low rank, but my game awareness and knowledge has improved a little W vids bro 🔥🔥
Another banger, consistency is amazing. Played my first solo que in a while and carried in a lower to mid champ elo feel like the tips you’ve given have really helped on how to handle solo situations in higher elo.
@@ilumahsoka thanks man I’ve learnt so much from these, also in the last round on chalet, was there a reason you didn’t use vigils gadget when deimos was tracking you?
@@biggre8365 Nah just forgot at the time, didn't matter though even looking back I would've just stayed site anyways, no need to roam if they aren't really on pushing above much and forcing it breach
@@ilumahsoka true, he probably felt the need to attack the breach to try and get to you, from my experience when people are tracking you it's almost like they forget there are 4 other players they need to watch out for 😂
Your vids have helped so much, I'm already emerald 4 and Dok has been so fun to play. I stayed away from her because of her smg 11 but I stuck with it and she's the ultimate solo que support for your fragging teammates. Thanks so much!
She really is great for soloQ, easy ability that helps you massively and your team as well like you said, she's so good and when you get her guns down then GG
appreciate your content so much, i was so Bad before watching u, after i started watching i started to get so much better because i actually started to know what i should do, and today finally i hit plat for the first time ever and im looking to hit emerald this szn
I periodically comment on your video, this is my second season and I finally hit diamond 3 for the first time but I swear to god the lobbies I got are sweating rn, it's not even funny anymore 😂
Yeah you're probably at the peak of ranked 2.0 hidden MMR at that point being diamond, so you'll be getting the toughest ones possible! Keep grinding man, great practice at least
@@ilumahsoka No problem and also I have a villa curse also I swear it’s cursed. The past 4 games I’ve played in ranked have been in villa😭 and I lost all 4 it’s crazy
This season has been such a headache for me. I’ve been going against nothing but champion stacks. But your videos give me hope and guidance to push myself against these high level players.
Hey, great video man I love these doubleheaders and the early uploads it’s amazing keep up the great videos also is anyone else gaining barely any RP as after 50 games I am already gaining as much RP as I lose
Damn that's unfortunate, I know winning streaks help a ton with your gain so that might be your best bet at this point (way easier said than done) Also appreciate it as always reflex 🫡
Yeah I know just forgot at the round because new op and everything, cut me some slack I've played 12 ranked games all season so far 😂 You're right though woulda been perfect
I'm not sure for recommendations because I use earbuds, they're hyperX cloud earbuds if you want to try them. I only use em because I don't like headphones personally
By the way vigil can counter deimos by activating his ability. If you activate it when the scan is announced to the server you can even deny it completely iirc.
You can still play defense ops in the training mode just gotta toggle it in the settings, and you can use any gun in the shooting range as well. I know elas shotgun has definitely been nerfed multiple times these past few years though
Just a couple target drills first (one with an acog like F2 and one with SMG-12) and then same stuff for a couple free for alls too! FFA is definitely the best warm-up now
I enjoy the vigil gameplay when you didn’t even show off that your ability fully renders Deimos useless instead you ran back to site. Still the better option I guess but could have wasted more time or got a pick
Yeah I just completely forgot in the moment that he counters him but for sure all good there, maybe would of stayed longer too if I had teammates with me, didn't wanna get pinched
so i know you make ur thumbnails in like customs or the t hunt but how do you make a custom by yourself i’ve been wanting to practice valk cam spots in customs but i cant
On attack how would u counter the lair operational hold that u normally do? ps (I’ve been a variation of that zero strat for bank you made a real with a while ago and it’s been working well with both sites. Bottom floor I j drop main lobby hatch n swing like crazy GOOOD NIGHT. “I didn’t even see him”.) keep up the work g
(Haven’t watch the vid yet) me n my duo notice you been runnin out more/(I showed him that Oregon ella strat) being a lil cocky with ur game. Couple posts ago you had a 1v1 “ik he was shaking” had me….
Also best tip you had awhile ago, that I tell all new players is to turn the health bar off. Can’t be playin with ya tail tucked. Can’t stand when ppl look up stats before games.
And for the Lair thing I'd say to bring an ash or zofia if you're directly trying to take it against Azami or something, best way I've found. Keep a preplaced below regardless though to see if they're trying to preplace a C4 there, it's pretty common
Hey bro I've been watching you for a few weeks now because I'm trying to get back into siege, I was a diamond years 3 & 4 and I want to hit champ because i quit before it was released. I'm really struggling with recoil control and making plays to win rounds, for example how you killed the guy planting when time was out I never would of thought of that. Thank you💜
I've got you, glad you've been able to learn off these that's what I'm going for in them, keep it up and you'll get there 🫡 I got some good recoil tip videos on my channel if they might help too
Hard to really say without knowing the map but usually it just depends on the push I'm doing. Example if I'm planning to rappel the aqua balcony that I do on coastline then I'll usually go someone with claymores for it, same with the kitchen site for my flank since I push office. Then another example on Villa I push main stairs from below, I like having stuns in case anyone is contesting me from main stairs so I can go up or I like twitch for the extra drones to get me in below, since there's a lot of angles. All depends on your desired pushes
41:17 why didn’t you just pop your utility? Vigil, mute and turbao are his only counters. I’ve been playing vigil recently bc I’m pretty nice w the smg12 as well, plus I can troll Deimos.
Just forgot about the counter tbh, wasn't even thinking about that but it worked out still. Usually I just deep roam anyways and try to juke drones so I didn't mind coming back. Although I should've just turned my scanner on in prep phase when I shot the drones, then he couldn't of scanned me!

I am in a very bad slump rn, I was bronze 1 not even 2 days ago and im bronze 3 and still losing elo. im so inconsistent, and I don’t know how to get out of this slump, solo queue is impossible and I’m constantly dying to lucky shots
Unlucky man, just try to keep it up and hopefully your luck will turn soon if it hasn't already. Slumps happen to everyone even me, I think I had a 6 game losing streak at one point even and sure you might not play the best every match but it just happens when you solo because you can't control what your randoms do, being 5v5
@@ilumahsoka same thing happened 😭 went to bronze 2 had a 1.2 win rate and .7 Kd now I’m bronze 2, 2 losses away from bronze 3. 0.7 Kd again but 1.0 win rate. This time it’s just staying aggressive but knowing not to swing stuff at the same time
Ive been playing for 9 years have great game knowledge and sense but still cant get outta bronze how am i supposed to get to gold one for the headgear when i cant rank up due to losing 2x rp than when i win😭😭
If you're serious about winning I'd definitely recommend finding some good players to play with (easier said than done) because solo queue you really are just gambling every time especially in the lower half of the ranks, randoms are Clueless. If it helps at all I know winning streaks help your average gain/loss situation so hopefully you can go on one
All personal preference but I'd start a little lower at least, I played 35-60 for the longest time until last year so I'd probably recommend something like that if you're new
@@ilumahsoka sounds good. Movements and aim are defitneily my downfall right now. Learning how to drone prep and stuff from your videos has helped a lot
Make sure to have a consistent warm-up if you don't, I'd recommend free for alls for the mechanical side. And for the game make sure you're doing preplaced drones to get in the map quicker
You should try making videos on TikTok or TH-cam before streaming on twitch because its hard to get viewers if you dont already have a community, but if you just want to start streaming you should probably stream on TikTok because its easier to get viewers.
Ahh that's right I did see that in the reveal but completely forget at the time! I'll keep it in mind though for next time, still don't know if I would've changed up what I did that round since my team was all bunkered
Hi Ilum, I love your videos ive been watching for a while and ive gotten a lot better at the game because of you. One question I have is how do you have such good recoil control? I struggle with this alot no matter how much i practice
Just been playing for so long and I've also practiced the hard recoil guns a ton. I warm-up every time before I play pretty much with SMG-12 and F2 for example, free for alls help a ton too these days since t-hunt is gone. For people now I recommend shooting range and turn infinite ammo on, you can spray forever and it really helps get the muscle memory down
Hey ilum i have a question: i save up my renown for a operator rn but i dont know what operator i should get the only ones i dont have are sens, grim, brava, ram, maestro, oryx, clash, thunderbird and fenrir
Out of those I'd recommend Fenrir first but he's also always banned so you should probably get either Brava or Ram, depending on if you're more of a aggressive player or passive player, because Brava is quite slow with her gadget
Bro 😂 Nah that kind of stuff has happened to me too, first match of the season (only loss of the season of course) my teammates fry eachother off the rip and then next round they kill me too. Then the next one I get blitz rushed immediately as 2 teammates had left
Villa really is my map, only have bad games on it once in a blue moon. But I've been loving the new season haven't played much the last few days honestly but gonna get back into it tonight
okay, I have about 8 days of time on siege in my lifetime, I'm trying to get aim like you so I have been practicing a lot in shooting range. I still have a lot of recoil but I'm normally top frag in my ranked squad. We're at best golds. Would you say I just need more hours to get that kind of aim or am I missing something in the drills? @@ilumahsoka
Oh yeah definitely more time needed, 8 days is still very new even if you're already top fragging (good job on that). You'll for sure improve a ton more though as time goes on
Appreciate it! And yeah I know just forgot at the time about the counter because I wasn't even thinking about it. Should of used my scanner in prep when I shot all the drones and I woulda been set. Worked out great coming back to site anyways, near flawless round
Great vid. U make solo q look so easy , ive been on a 6 games losing streak rn . I play against people with 5k+ hours champs then my teammates has 300hours its so frustrating😭😂 i thought ubisoft would fix ranked this season .
I'm glad to hear it, I'd recommend an upgrade on the old gen for sure too, I didn't think it'd be that big like a year ago or less when I swapped, but it really has been
What do you think it changed when you went too newgen cause It would give more fps and make games load faster idk if it would be a difference tbh for my gameplay @@ilumahsoka
@@Demons1230 With performance mode you get 120 FPS instead of 60 so it's wayyy smoother. And as a bonus if you pair it with a 120HZ monitor it runs even smoother
Yeah just an alt for the season, usually I'll get a new one each season so we can have fresh stats and hidden MMR to grind through the ranks, haven't played on my main in ages now
@@ilumahsoka i had been at that diamond grind since all the way back in wind bastion when i started taking ranked seriously. this has been a very long time coming and since watching you, my growth has been exponential and i doubt that would’ve happened without you. it’s cheesy as but you’ve blessed the game for me and i can’t wait to see you rewarded for it in time
That means a lot to hear man because it's what I was going for when I started my channel, just wanted to spread the siege knowledge around and it's helped quite literally thousands at this point, you guys are crazy for the support ❤️
@@ilumahsoka it may have taken a while but it just means that it’s true, you’re selfless with genuinely improving the community especially on console and the rewards will always come from that
It can be easy to blame yourself, but just have the mindset that you're probably gonna lose a bunch of solo games, gotta expect it and focus on the things you can control, helped me a lot

Need to see you using the Vendetta do a video using Deimos 🙏🏻❤
I'll use him at least one round once I get him! Can't promise more than that because he is terrible for solo honestly
crazy how fast you are growing on a daily basis
For real
How do you shoot while crouching? Do you use the controller in a different position? Or do you use scuff?
Nah back left paddle for crouch, it's binded to B
Ilum, do you not know how vigil’s gadget breaks Deimos ? If you activate it when you get the targeted notification it removes it completely

As a new comer, do you recommend trying to use your sensitivity settings ? And adapting to them, or start low and work faster
All personal preference but I'd start a little lower at least, I played 35-60 for the longest time until last year so I'd probably recommend something like that if you're new
@@ilumahsoka sounds good. Movements and aim are defitneily my downfall right now. Learning how to drone prep and stuff from your videos has helped a lot
I want to get champ but I can’t stay consistent and don’t know what I need to be that skill level
Make sure to have a consistent warm-up if you don't, I'd recommend free for alls for the mechanical side. And for the game make sure you're doing preplaced drones to get in the map quicker
Any tips on growing a twitch channel or yt channel? Been steaming on twitch for a month 2-4 hours a day but no one turns in 😢
You should try making videos on TikTok or TH-cam before streaming on twitch because its hard to get viewers if you dont already have a community, but if you just want to start streaming you should probably stream on TikTok because its easier to get viewers.
Love watching the videos and I didn’t know if you knew that vigils ability counters Deimos
Ahh that's right I did see that in the reveal but completely forget at the time! I'll keep it in mind though for next time, still don't know if I would've changed up what I did that round since my team was all bunkered
As soon as you get villa i already know you are running thay dokkaebi smg 12 like you did on me😭
Me when I see the Dokk ban at the start:
💔
Hi Ilum, I love your videos ive been watching for a while and ive gotten a lot better at the game because of you. One question I have is how do you have such good recoil control? I struggle with this alot no matter how much i practice
Just been playing for so long and I've also practiced the hard recoil guns a ton. I warm-up every time before I play pretty much with SMG-12 and F2 for example, free for alls help a ton too these days since t-hunt is gone. For people now I recommend shooting range and turn infinite ammo on, you can spray forever and it really helps get the muscle memory down
Hey ilum i have a question: i save up my renown for a operator rn but i dont know what operator i should get the only ones i dont have are sens, grim, brava, ram, maestro, oryx, clash, thunderbird and fenrir
Out of those I'd recommend Fenrir first but he's also always banned so you should probably get either Brava or Ram, depending on if you're more of a aggressive player or passive player, because Brava is quite slow with her gadget
@@ilumahsokaokay thanks for the answer! And also ur my favourite r6 youtuber to watch rn
That means a ton man
I watch this guy between matches
Dude idk how you got champ solo-queue, I just had a match where my tachanka opened up walls on kaafe then tked us after… I give up at this point
Bro 😂 Nah that kind of stuff has happened to me too, first match of the season (only loss of the season of course) my teammates fry eachother off the rip and then next round they kill me too. Then the next one I get blitz rushed immediately as 2 teammates had left
i commented a couple vids ago i’m not gonna lie i love ur journey to champ vids bro keep up the good work 🎉
Thanks man, glad you're enjoying it!
Love seeing new things to use in rank play love ur videos man keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
Any tips for recoil control for the smg 12 beside a bunch of play time with it
Shooting range with infinite ammo turned on, helps with muscle memory a lot, can really learn the patterns
how you enjoying the new season and villa is your map i always see you on this map but watching you give me more game sens and make me play smarter
Villa really is my map, only have bad games on it once in a blue moon. But I've been loving the new season haven't played much the last few days honestly but gonna get back into it tonight
I’ve got my own sens and trying your and rotating and I’m loving yours so far. Went from 1.4kd silver 4 to gold 5 1.7kd
Good stuff man that's some big improvement there, might be good for you then too
Ilum just wondering, how many hours do you have between all accounts? I'm trying to compare where I am on time to where you are lol.
On my main I think I got like 6K, and then I'd guess probably a few hundred combined on all others, maybe 500 tops
okay, I have about 8 days of time on siege in my lifetime, I'm trying to get aim like you so I have been practicing a lot in shooting range. I still have a lot of recoil but I'm normally top frag in my ranked squad. We're at best golds. Would you say I just need more hours to get that kind of aim or am I missing something in the drills?
@@ilumahsoka
Oh yeah definitely more time needed, 8 days is still very new even if you're already top fragging (good job on that). You'll for sure improve a ton more though as time goes on
lovely vid as always but remember that vigil does infact disable demos's ability on you
Appreciate it! And yeah I know just forgot at the time about the counter because I wasn't even thinking about it. Should of used my scanner in prep when I shot all the drones and I woulda been set. Worked out great coming back to site anyways, near flawless round
Trying to keep back up with these vids, still playin ranked in the new season too
Good stuff man, hopefully your games have been good so far
do you use a scuff controller? i see you lean without aiming and i cant do it on my regular controller.
Nah anyone can it's in the control settings, added it a couple months back
@@ilumahsoka ok thanks!
Yeo my guy I can tell it’s another banger by intro as usual
Love the good vibes bro keep it up
Appreciate it man, you already know 💪
@@ilumahsoka no problem bro any time bro
I don't know how you do it with the f2 recoil. It almost looks perfect and is impossible to control for me.
Just a wholeee lot of practice, had to get good enough to use the extended barrel on it
Great vid. U make solo q look so easy , ive been on a 6 games losing streak rn . I play against people with 5k+ hours champs then my teammates has 300hours its so frustrating😭😂 i thought ubisoft would fix ranked this season .
Sounds about right there for ranked 2.0, gotta move onto the next unfortunately, hopefully your RP didn't take a big hit
@@ilumahsokafr I still get 64 rp a win fortunately
Would u ever go for a top 5k champ push as soloq to push urself and see if it’s possible
Hm just depends on how much I play this season here, if I already get a bit into champ and there's still time left then might as well
Love watching you grow dude watching you makes me better every day even tho im oldgen
I'm glad to hear it, I'd recommend an upgrade on the old gen for sure too, I didn't think it'd be that big like a year ago or less when I swapped, but it really has been
What do you think it changed when you went too newgen cause It would give more fps and make games load faster idk if it would be a difference tbh for my gameplay @@ilumahsoka
Yea been thinking about it what does the newgen change@@ilumahsoka
@@Demons1230 With performance mode you get 120 FPS instead of 60 so it's wayyy smoother. And as a bonus if you pair it with a 120HZ monitor it runs even smoother
@@ilumahsoka thanks for the info will definitely look at getting a ps5 then
Smg12 demon back with another banger
You already KNOW
what is the skin ur using on dokkaebi's gun in chalet? great work btw learned a lot from ur gameplays!
It's a battle pass one I believe from last season
I wanna see him play Blackbeard in a champ game 💀
That would sure be an interesting sight.. I mean I have to do it at some point here I guess, hopefully when I'm up 3-0 or something
Easily the best r6 TH-camr at the moment
Appreciate that a ton
Wow almost 25k already congrats man
Thanks a lot man it's still crazy to me!
U seem to have no recoil for guns like melusi at 15:00 so could we possibly get a hand cam video possibly
Yeah there will be more handcams for sure, just did one a few weeks ago too if you wanna check it out, I'll link it for you in a minute
Here you go: th-cam.com/video/AxWCHIEj08c/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
just curious, do you usually play on smurfs for videos? would love to get a copper to champ type series on your main acc
Yeah just an alt for the season, usually I'll get a new one each season so we can have fresh stats and hidden MMR to grind through the ranks, haven't played on my main in ages now
@@ilumahsoka yeah thats smart, might have to do the same soon
First time watching you, loving the content and information sharing.
Glad you enjoy my style, I'll keep em coming ❤️
Bro ur who I base my gameplay on I’m trying so hard to get that smg 12 recoil down like u
Your videos have made go up two rank since watching
Glad to help man
I have a question about thumb positioning for maximum control of the stick?
Yeah?
@@ilumahsoka do you use like the middle of your thumb or more toward the tip
Kinda the tip, I got a controller cam up a few weeks ago too! White/blue r4c thumbnail I believe
Easily the best rainbow youtuber you and jynxzi the only ones i can watch
Appreciate it man
Is it best for this season for yr9s1 to only use acog for the guns on defence and attack
Not only, but they are definitely very good, I use a lot of them
Best solo queue player hands down
Solo Queue king
welp, i finally reached diamond solo queue. thank you ilum for all the support in these vids 🙏❤️
Ayy let's go! I got you man good stuff though that's all you, just helping lay the foundation
@@ilumahsoka i had been at that diamond grind since all the way back in wind bastion when i started taking ranked seriously. this has been a very long time coming and since watching you, my growth has been exponential and i doubt that would’ve happened without you. it’s cheesy as but you’ve blessed the game for me and i can’t wait to see you rewarded for it in time
That means a lot to hear man because it's what I was going for when I started my channel, just wanted to spread the siege knowledge around and it's helped quite literally thousands at this point, you guys are crazy for the support ❤️
@@ilumahsoka it may have taken a while but it just means that it’s true, you’re selfless with genuinely improving the community especially on console and the rewards will always come from that
@@exileri191 Appreciate that a lot
How do you get your weapons to sound like that
Just my capture card playing with earbuds I think, because it doesn't sound like that for me
Just hit emerald kd still is not improving 😂 amazing as always
Hey chalk the KD for the season just get that rank up man, and more importantly keep improving
@@ilumahsoka yes sir
it’s so hard to solo q my mental gets so chalked even tho i always top frag when we lose rounds i still think it’s my fault
It can be easy to blame yourself, but just have the mindset that you're probably gonna lose a bunch of solo games, gotta expect it and focus on the things you can control, helped me a lot
I love your videos you made me start rainbow again
Glad I could inspire, this game is crazy fun right now
