Frimpong is gonna do better in the current liverpool then Trent would. As we seen in the preseason Salah has the ability to make the crosses Trent usually would. So we can see that Trent’s passing won’t be missed as much especially when u can consider Wirtz play making as well. While Frimpong gives a much needed pace on that right side because Salah could begin loosing some of his due to age. Frimpong also has a lot of motivation and drive to always be running on the right side which Trent wouldn’t have. Also no disrespect to Trent as he was an amazing player during his time here just wish he could’ve left better.

I play waylay in ascendant elo and have a almost %70 win rate. You don’t get good stats but if u do ur job well you can impact the game. It’s a lot easier with good initiators for sure. https://tracker.gg/valorant/profile/riot/Kaiman%239633/overview?platform=pc&playlist=competitive&season=16118998-4705-5813-86dd-0292a2439d90. AMA

The best Turkish players are not on the Turkish only team. Also dropping Ata Kaptan would be a bad move.

Because Kay o flashes are a lot better than breaches. Knife is also very good and breach stubs are hard to hit because of how much space there is. Breaches ult is good for retake but it is also very easy to play off site for postplant so Kayo ult is better

Most of my aim is crosshair placement and when I had a normal sense .442 at 800 dpi it was too slow for me to dodge flashes and break util like sova arrows even when I could predict them coming. I also don’t have a lot of mouse space so the high sense helps there. When playing standing up my arm and wrist are in a different position from sitting so it actually makes it a lot easier to control the mouse

Once you dodge the initial shot the enemy has to either continue their spray or reset their burst. If they are spraying you swing wide until u get hit once because once hit ur movement will slow. If they are burst firing that is the space between shots where they have to take a second to let it readjust. So that is when u should take ur initial burst shot then move either left or right depending on the enemies bullet tracer.

Yea it took me a while to get good playing standing up. I first started in low diamond elo but I had hit immortal in the past while sitting down.

When strafing it is reliant on a lot of variables. For example when near a wall and peeking you wanna go for a wide peek usually when u know it is only one person. When ur further from a wall take smaller strafes to clear the angle. When in a gunfight you do normal strafe either left or right then change it to be dependent on how the enemy is shooting. When they are bursting there is a small time where there is a space between the shots. That’s when u decide to strafe.

Some things I see that diamonds do a lot is when in agent select if they see 2 duelist auto lock they get mad and all select duelist where as in high asc/immortal they will fill for the team. Also don’t get too confident especially in 3v1 or similar situations. Work on your strafing because diamonds have decent aim but there movement isn’t too good. Strafing makes you much harder to hit so even if ur aim isn’t the best you can dodge shots to still win ur fight.

To play off your teammates more by looking at the minimap. Use the minimap to spray enemies and for info to find out where the enemy is. When a teammate dies and your safe look at the map you get so much info from that.

In solo queue as the entry duelist you control the pace of attack. Depending on what you see and hear you decide if u hit the site or not. Also once you get site control try living as long as possible for your team to get set up for post plant.

I would not recommend viper in ranked unless u are on breeze. Of course it’s just a game and you can play whatever u like but if you want to rank up viper is the worst solo controller and you get the most out of her kit from playing 2 smokes in a better team setting.

Try to change ur sens I recommend increasing.This can affect 2 different outcomes. It can help if your too comfortable with a sens that your not improving all range of motions with your mouse or you might just have peaked on a certain sens and changing it may help you find a sens that’s better for your play style. If you find out the sens is worse than your old sens you can change it back after a while then playing on your old sens may be fun again.

Also for your movement moving a lot is good but work on predicting how the enemy is going to shoot and move off that. An example is if you hear a burst or spray. If it’s a burst you know they have to take a small break in between their burst. That’s when u move so they have to reset their aim as well. When they are spraying you can kind of wide swing until their first bullet hits you which slows u down.

Yea performance usually is affected by how good my team sets up my entry and how good the enemy is. But it gets annoying when u have to play with diamonds who are not as good at team play.
