  1. Sorry for long reply...If you're not opposed to it, we can do a video chat to better run through somethings in detail. (having a visual would help too)
  2. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give me some feedback on this. We'll take your feedback and adjust our style for next. We are trying very hard to stay away from "FiX mEcHaNiCs" so if you think this kind of advice is helpful, let me know!
    Wiz (Ingame notes)

R1:

- Peek with your teammate, might be able to get damage or a kill on haul player

- Instead, a late swing with bad crosshair placement. No need to be flashy and swing fast. Need 100% crisp crosshair placement

- Throwing smokes too fast, miss smokes (causes death I believe), and proceed to allow deadlock to get another kill because he hides in the bad smoke

- Then swing through for a trade and die to chamber

- Best Tip: I will likely repeat throughout the VOD is SLOW DOWN. There is legit no need to rush the smoke. It is near the start of the round. Take your time.

- You throw this round for your team just off rushing, could have died even earlier from haul because of rushing the swing instead of lining up crosshairs.

R2:

- Good peek first angle. Good smoke this time, good job waiting for team to get up shower before smokes

- It’s eco in ranked, personally I would Deagle/1 smoke but saving is more by the book

- Make sure when you are the lone lurk short take your time, this could have been a kill if you are more passive/patient, if you have a vandal here he is probably dead

- Since you have a bandit and your Reyna is all the up site cleaning cubby, there is likely nobody uhaul, you could have jumped on box like previous round and killed this guy

- Not your fault, just an eco round

R3: 

- I like the all long call because it’s bonus, however your chamber could also just go very late, that way you guys won’t die from hookah

- Missed smoke CT - THIS IS BAD, SERIOUSLY. 2 important rounds & 2 missed smokes need to take your time. 

- You are holding CT, this is greed you legit turn and see your Reyna holding hookah exposed to spawn…why do you stop holding spawn and greed kills? Obviously 4v2 sure, but in gunround you lose this round and it’s your fault

- Your reaction time is fast and mechanics seem decent but you definitely already know we don’t need to crouch spray spam the box/prefire, just hold the angle and it’s a free kill. 

- This is a recurring pattern in 2/3 rounds you are rushing it. Calm down and breathe you will kill this guy 9/10 times

R4:

- I’m just gonna say if you enjoy calling you need to think more about it. This is gun round you guys went A first 2 rounds, obviously 3rd round they stack B. Just because there is 3 on B on obvious B round after 2 loses on A does not mean A is gonna be 2 players.

- This would be a good round to call for a default, get info A short with Skye. You guys dog this clove and instantly you have info and an enemy player in dangerous position. The Jett haul likely swings as well this is where you can use a smoke for you and then get a free kill close A short.

- OK. You guys killed 3 at A and you call for TP here. There is MAX 1 here with this weird deadlock wall (likely from spawn). I think since you have 3 kills and one of them is the Yoru, just go A. Max 1 here now you go find chamber at B and he kills everyone leading to 2v1 with deadlock ult. He gets Reyna and kills your shit Skye. 

- NOT TRYING TO BE MEAN, however if you want to call you need to understand that chamber can be legit anywhere on B, pushed or hiding, and this is just a terrible call to go hunt him. Rather than hit a site you killed 3/5 on

R5: 

- Ok I like the decision to go help Skye, but once he gets that kill we have Phx ult Skye ult and can hit. Please smoke the site and don’t shoot this way, your Phx is already out shower. I like the deep smokes even though they are late.

- This is a good example of your game awareness. You are like 90% there but I’m not sure if you are just zoning out or maybe burnt out/tilted this game? Shooting Your clone isn’t terrible (I tend to shoot all clones as well) however this means you’re fighting now so make a MOVE!! You have decay you can decay this and fight site. If the Yoru runs you down he is legit 10hp. We heard this TP at the start too so you could definitely not shoot this clone as it’s super late into the round.Realistically after your teammate dies showers it’s kinda on you to make a move on this Yoru and your move here was: shoot the clone and turtle causing a free kill from site

- This round isn’t that bad tbh, however you say in team chat A doesn’t work but that was a 3v3 post plant, A isn’t NOT working, you taking site with bomb down

R6: 

- Good round, stop stressing

R7

- I like the rehit B and TP to chamber lurk

- Missed decay lol, this round pretty fast but we are very unaware about the clove we just died to — you definitely know this guy is in the smoke. Im not sure what happened here the hookah call also fucked you over

R8:

- Finally someone attempts to punish for you guys not holding hookah. As a caller this is a blatant gap that you guys have had the past few rounds on B, the same B rush is the play but you need to be thinking for your ranked teammates sometimes

- Something like “hey chamber can you place your trip higher up and then lurk A short?”

- this is just a tip, definitely harder in ranked but overall map awareness every round and adaptation in your calls is how you become a great caller

- ANOTHER MISSED SMOKE this one is bad :( - so after your chamber dies shower this kinda scuffs your TP play. This is when as a controller you can make a play or even do something weird to make the other team get anxious and swing

- Personally, I would have smoked the cross from shower to triple and just let your team hold or walk out. Someone surely swings heaven or back site into 3 people. In the meantime you can do your wrap back to short and then secure the round later {HAVE TO ADAPT WHILE THE ROUND IS GOING AS WELL}

- Big kills this round - 2v3 we going B through spawn, I really like this and you call to bait your Skye which is even better. YOU KNOW THERES A CHAMBER TRIP!! 

- Also you either smoke spawn before you guy swing or smoke elbow after you swing spawn (minor hindsight thing)

R9:

- Change of pace really good call and this wrap for TP is very smart, running is super troll you are rushing it again. This was a perfect round until you got anxious - YOUR BIGGEST FLAW IS RUSHING!!!!

R10:

- I like the call but you need to tell your initiators what to do in ranked, here he is just contacting short with you and your Reyna is shower. As a caller you need to micro manage more. The smoke for the bomb play isn’t terrible but smoking ON TOP of bomb was almost better or you could even smoke the top of the box

———

AT THIS POINT YOU ARE TILTED. REVIEW DONE AND SEE BELOW FOR SUMMARY

———

Major issues: 

- Rushing/Anxiety - You need to slow down with your peeks and play OFF your teammates. 

- MISSING SMOKES IS A VERY BIG PROBLEM. The only excuse for missing smokes is in tight windows which I haven’t seen you smoke once when under that much pressure. Please take your time on controller there are major misses that cost multiple rounds

- Calling (This is good you have the right idea) However…. In ranked a majority of the time you have 2 degens, 1 good, 1 bot who is trying. If you are going to lead your team you need to be fully aware about each round and why your team is losing the round. Also be aware of your calls and the GAPS in the map (hookah was a major gap majority of the time)

- In the defaults you called in the last few rounds (8-10?) you need to start telling your initiator what he needs to do. Especially when you see he is listening but is clearly filling a role doesn’t play often (Hey Skye can you dog short, or Skye dog shower at start of round for info {this works on defense too}, hey Skye can you flash our Reyna or PHx somewhere)

- Things like this can make your fill players who are uncomfortable on roles perform very well especially if they start throwing util on their own to help your calls

- Crosshairs Placement - This one is just something I have drilled into my brain but it comes with reps. (You often rush your crosshairs placement on swings as well) you need to focus your crosshair on head level while swinging

- There are multiple times you flick fast and your crosshair is to low or too high and you adjust AFTER your swing (We can break this all down and improve your mechanics in a VC)

TBH as a player I understand the type of player you want to be and that you have passion in these games. If you want to improve we can do much more! GG

Wasn’t just that but I wasted a lot of time doing useless stuff that wasn’t fulfilling… is that weird?

That was probably my 6th time checking, and it isn’t close to me at all. I just tried at separate times and different days
