Tip for anyone who's just now getting into FPS games. Stop staring at your damn crosshair. When you want to pick up a glass of water, you don't look at your arm and drag it while you reach the cup. Instead you focus on the cup and you bring your arm into your line of sight. The same thing is true for FPS`. Your eyes should be scanning multiple places, assuming you don't know the enemy's position. Once you see an enemy, your eyes should focus on his head(best case scenario) or at the very least on his torso, once that is done, you move your crosshair in that direction and stop moving it when it appears in the center of your line of sight, which is the head/torso of the enemy.

QOTD: I just wait until someone dies with the skin and take their weapon

“Try not to crouch as much” *Literally shows the player crouching while firing in every single clip*

I use the "shoot around " tactics. When i miss all my shot with 0,001 pixel.

"Don't crouch so much" Bold of you to assume I remember to crouch

That awkward moment when you and your enemy are spraying and missing all shots. The only thing that comes in the mind is "come onnnn a lil bit down"

"Dont crouch" - literally crouches in every single clip used

I use spraying like this I aim for the chest then the recoil makes my bullets go up and headshot

4:25 - I didn't know I shouldnt be spraying with the marshall. Great Tip!

i've been searching for this for days and now one has finally uploaded. thank you i needed this

8:38 50 bullet magazine?? It's actually 100

This guide is awesome, also the comments are extremely helpful here, instead of the usual YT comments, very cool. One thing though: when the effective DPI is in question, one thing NOBODY ever talks about, is mouse space. Not everybody playing (especially with free games having relatively low requirements) on streamer setups, their mouse space might be limited. For a good 3 months now mine is too. I have a "normal size" mousepad, which is relatilvely small nowadays, and i had to rotate it 90° just to have it fit somewhere on my desk. So even though I want to use even lower sens settings than I do now, it's impossible (currently). I know, i should give myself more space, I just dont have anymore space left in my room or on my desk, and I know for a fact I am not alone here.

QOTD: I have the vandal skin and I don't think its distracting because when you have the skin for a little while you don't get distracted as you would if you don't have it and pick it up and be like wow that's a cool skin and you look at all the animations it's just my opinion I like it a lot

*Weapons for tapping :* Classic , Ghost , Sheriff, Vandal , Guardian , Marschall *Weapons for bursting :* Frenzy , Stinger , Spectre , *Weapons for spraying :* Spectre , Ares , Phantom , Odin

QOTD: even if I had the money, I wouldn't buy them, except for the knife, reason being that they're just too distracting and loud

QOTD: when i see that gun i dont pick it up it distracts me instead of looking at my target i look at my gun which is annoying

QOTD: I like that they're moving in that direction of fully animated weapons, but personally I find them too distracting.

thanks for the vids bro `they really help

I feel like just saying “float like a butterfly sting like a bee” woulda been less cringe.

You need a praise cuz of you my aim got better a lot actually this with bursting and tapping helped a lot i see improvement

I really liked the way you held the reaver and I was disappointed when it didn’t come back in the full release so when I saw you held elder flame melee the same way I knew I would need to get it (I did)

Love the elderflame set!! In a free game I'm happy to pay for cosmetics I'm loving for when I'm enjoying the game. This is a game I play every day and don't play many other games. So the money I save from not buying other games I'll happily put into supporting the game I'm playing to continue getting more content!

Bro the video quality is just lit

Thank You !❤️💯🔥

Can y'all do something about the shotguns ? specially about the judge, it has a lot of not so obvious mechanics that i'm not too sure how to implement in my games as Jett

thanks for the guide, i normally play R6 which is very different on how to aim. This helps me thank uuu

Thank You! 😁💙

Thanks I’m just getting onto the game (:

I also only use the dot as a crosshair since the outlines are in the way for me to accurately hit my mark.

QOTD: They look nice, but they're extremely distracting sometimes.

So with spray transfer do you stop shooting momentarily between bad guys or do you just hold the trigger down and control the recoil (ie you lose some bullets between the targets)?

Same, the elderskin guns are very distracting!! I picked one up during a sudden death match then I died while being distracted by the gun, i suddenly cant find the my crosshair/middle of the screen

bro , i have a problem , while choosing the agent the time is running but i am unable to agents some times . Can u please help

I can't understand myself. When I start recording, I mostly have 50-50 per cent of winning/losing rate, and my kill average is 10-18. When I play just for fun (f.e. today) I had 35 kills and ranked up to bronze 3. Fate is strange sometimes.

These tips really helped, now I didn’t realize I crouched so much lol

I wont purchase anything in the game but the elderflame set is pretty sick ngl

can u explain to me what is bursting or burst firing and in what range can u do that

QOTD: I like them, i prefer the second and third chroma because of the neat looking dots which variant 1 and 4 dont have. Compared to other games i like that every skin has its own character, and not a reused template. As example The dragon faces are all different.

Guns best for: 1)Tapping:- Classic, Sheriff, Ghost, Vandal, Guardian and Marstial 2)Bursting:- Frenzy, Stinger,Spectre, Vandal and Phantom 3)Spraying:- Spectre, Ares, Phantom and Odin

My fav gun is guardian. Its dirt Cheap to buy and you can get that gun + all abilities every round. I got my love for that SDM gun from Black Ops 4. almost any target will die from 2 body shots.

QOTD: too expensive and distracting.

I don't know y but at 3:14 that enemy jet poping up cracked me😂

My EDPI is like 3k. And that was after I turned off hardware acceleration which really made my mouse feel slow after, lmao. And a point not mentioned, most pros have like half of their desk set up all for their mouse. As most people only have the standard small box mousepad pad setups. Like normal people.

"But we're human, we make mistakes, and we're bad at Valorant."

QOTD: The elder flame set is the 1st one I've really come across where I REALLY want an option to be able to turn off certain VFX's... I upgraded the Vandal one to get the last black and blue colour scheme, but I find the reload animations too distracting and wish I could turn it off. I don't even use the skin anymore because I find it covers so much of the screen and makes me glance at it every time it moves when reloading. I really hope Riot adds an option to turn off certain skin VFX's AND the option to disable enemy skins because I often pick up the elder flame set guns which as I said above, I don't like to use when it's upgraded

I have a. Problem where I sooo too short bursts, especially with smgs I can’t get kills at close range when my enemy opens up full auto when I’m bursting

I stoped spraying and only tap, now I do really well now I think all of these are just fun play style I feel it’s bad to mixed them, find one that you are good at and stick to it

Another aiming technique: While spraying aim the cross hair at the chest as due to the recoil the bullets will go up. I hope it helps. :)

I got my first ace today!!!

This is what i need

should I tap, or spray with the operator?

is bursting and spraying both holding left mouse button? or is bursting just spam clicking it?

What edpi you guys using ? I use 1600 dpi and 0.36 in game

im good at all the aim training stuff. just the recoil messes me up sometimes

always played like 1k edpi in all games but lowered to around 600 in val still under flicking but hope it helps.

i feel if this game had a recoil system like siege it will be more fun with a higher skill ceiling+ its super annoying when ur doing everything right in a burst/spray but the shoots go to the right at the last sec and the enemy who is in the air jumping get a random headshoot at u and if they need to buff/nerf a weapon but they dont want to change its DPS and TTK they can nerf/buff recoil i think this will make it easier to make new weapons maybe same dps and ttk like phantom but higher recoil and less price

thx

I have used the elderflame skins in comp for a week and they are not distrating at all

The dragon op has a clever strategy. If you master it, and lose it. You can be 100% sure the enemy will struggle using it against you. Plus its too enticing to not grab it. Best way to throw off the enemy team

QOTD: it looks sick but the animations are too distracting and sometimes confusing.. But still i look cool when my enemy drops the gun and i get to hold it!

Phantom or vandal and why, thanks a lot for any responses

When to ADS in spectre/ phantom? as a noob to FPS I find myself ADSing before every long range duel and get killed by good opponents

QOTD: The skin is more of a distraction for me and once when i picked it up mid round i paid a great fps loss!!!!!

@Stray stop targeting me so hard its only the intro sheesh 🤣🤣🤣 0:28

What's the different between burst and tapping

QOTD: Just bought the Vandal one. Not a great line up. But, still very good and interesting bundle 👌🏼

@IbiPlays i have a problem with crouching alot

Am I the only one that noticed he said phandal instead of phantom at around 6:35 or when he was talking about what guns were good for bursting

I don't really like where the trigger is on the Elderflame vandal skin

my mouse dpi is 800 and in game dpi is default what what that be edpi wise

0:39 how do u get that finisher?

btw at 8:40 you said the odin has a 50 bullet mag, it actually has a 100 bullet mag

can somebody give me a ranking of agents and maps it could really help

someone please help me with aim sensitivity and mouse dpi. i am beginner

What’s the science behind these running headshots lmaaao. I can’t ever escape them

Should we crouch while shooting?

Damn that was helpful..

in every high elo valorant stream i literally see everyone crouching while shooting

QOTD: I like it for the knife only, and prefer the prime set for Vandal (my main). Too bad I can’t afford either.

I love elderflame. I bought it the first day it came out.

When i try to shoot an enemy my bullets keep spreading but my aim in on head why ?

how do i know if i have luck or skill, my friends say i only have luck and no skill... what do i do or say? also, I am plat 1 in valorant

It's hard for me to tap fire. I usually click left mouse but then another bullet escapes as well if I'm not using ADS. Edit: this only happens on auto fire guns of course.

idk to jusut keep spraying and controling recoil or setting and just going for the head

what is up with omens and terrible crosshairs?

I actually do a sort of burst on the sheriff where i shoot twice at one player and it 9/10 kills them (I'm new to the game so I can't headshot that good)

QOTD: I hate the entire set the only thing I like is the awp because the vandal is so weird and makes me play worse with it (looks like you’re holding a dragon) the awp is the only exception because when you use it you’re scoped in

Qotd : distracting and sometimes make you thinking the reload is too long cause of the animation rather than the default skin animation

I panic a lot in this game LMAOO the anxiety fear and excitement get to me and i spray and pray even doe i practice tapping so much lol the jump scares of people coming out of smokes and peeking or rushing me gets me smh

Something's been off with me recently, previously I used to get an average of 25+ kills per game in ranked & I'm top fragging, but now I'm bot fragger stuck with less than 15 kills. I don't know what happened to me. I always get anxious when I'm in a match that I can't even focus on the game properly like before :(

i heard straykid when you said it my friend was in disc at the same time

I got just the Operator, my fav is the blue and pink xD, the knife is sick but too expensive and the op i thought that is too big on the hand, i didnt like it kkk

QotD as a dragon enthusiast I 100% won't use another Vandal skin ever again. Same with Operator, Judge or Frenzy (even tho the last two i rarely use and Frenzy only on defense pistol rounds on characters like Omen who can buy every single ability and still have neough money left for it). But, tbf, i have one "bad" thing to say: They do seem a bit too loud compared to other sounds in the game. Idk if that's just me, but that can be fixed very easy, so it's not that big of a problem.

Spray and pray it’s my favorite 👍

Valkyrae had a pretty good point about the dragon skins cost. If it’s more expensive, less players have the skin - so the skin is more special to own. Since it’s not something that’s required to play the game, it’s okay to be expensive.

Everytime stray mentions how phantom is good at spraying choke points all I think about is the one time on Haven C they 5 man rushed C long and I sprayed them down for the match point and to point out it was also my highest kill game and also a 5 man ace

about to get silver but kinda being boosted. need to get better. friend is immortal and brother is gold 3 almost plat going ham and im just so bad.. or unlucky timing and a mix

Can you crouch while bursting to?

Valorant match making is sick almost join me with unranked and low tier

QOTD: Love the Vamdal, Knife and Op, too expensive though
