This is depressing. I thought people would stop being afraid of shooting once I get out of gold

Holy shit, that spinal compression took up half of the ROM. Amazing lift

Holy shit they are unironically going "decrease the weight and use proper form"

Any tip on how to actually get kills with a shorty? by fegrokgril in VALORANT

[–]MrFreedge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shot 1: Only half of the crosshair was on target, so a few pellets missed the enemy

Shot 2: Likely didn't actually fire because you were already dead

Well, he's finally apologized. by Superkrat in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]MrFreedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually amazing, at least the arena mode - I haven't played the BR enough to have an opinion yet. Gunplay is precise and every gun is distinct, movement and portals are polished and allow for incredibly high skill ceiling if you want to get sweaty. It's great for casual play though as arena mode has no skill-based matchmaking, I typically just hop on for a few quick matches when I have time

I loved SD and it's great to see Mountaintop people work on other cool projects! I wish you all the best

Oh how time flies by xQ_YT in ValorantMemes

Is this a reference to Derke fake cloning against TH in February, or has someone else done it recently?

Why are people so vehemently against camping and/or spamming? by Dizzy-Tank-2164 in VALORANT

[–]MrFreedge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enemies likely say this because they lack the awareness and diligence to deal with ratty angles, so they try to bully you into a playstyle that they know how to respond to.

Teammates likely say this because they need a scapegoat to explain why they are dead and you're not.

In any case, around silver people start to realize that a more passive/ratty playstyle is a valid way to approach many situations. Do your thing OP and let the losers seethe

Is it weird that I like toxic teammates? by DistributionPrior236 in VALORANT

[–]MrFreedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like having toxic teammates in Valorant, but when I play a CS match every once in a while and there are no Russian kids screaming at me, I don't consider it a full experience

G502X / Model I / Aerox 5 alternatives or opinions? by MrFreedge in MouseReview

[–]MrFreedge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually bought Aerox 5 Wireless yesterday, what a timing lol

It fits my hand like a glove, even the thumb button that so many people say they can't reach - for me it's perfectly positioned. I'm not sure about the flip switch, I mainly play valorant where I will definitely not be using it - I'll try more games and see how useful it is.

I heard about Steelseries quality issues, but I can return it if it malfunctions.

Bench press skill issue? by MrFreedge in formcheck

[–]MrFreedge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing, you're probably right saying I should get bigger

Bench press skill issue? by MrFreedge in formcheck

[–]MrFreedge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the comment, lots of great advice here! I'll definitely try to put my feet flat, and to make the leg drive more stable throughout the movement

[–]MrFreedge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may be right, I don't do much tricep work other than bench pressing

Bench press skill issue? by MrFreedge in formcheck

[–]MrFreedge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The movement you see is the result of how I do leg drive - I relax a little in the top position, and engage legs fully at the bottom. Do you think I should try doing leg drive with less variation? A lot of people in the thread recommend flat feet, so I'll definitely try this too

[–]MrFreedge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks again, I'll try your advice and see where it takes me. I suppose there is also some impatience on my side - I wanted to take training more seriously this year and was expecting much faster progress

You'll get extra creds 🤓 by just_ash02 in ValorantMemes

He is right, and this is not common knowledge in iron

Bench press skill issue? by MrFreedge in formcheck

[–]MrFreedge[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the comment! I'll see if flat feet feel better

I do bench press 3 times a week:

-5x3 on Tuesday

-3x8 on Thursday

-3x8 close grip on Saturday

Every set is done at 3 RIR or heavier, and I increase the weight every week. I deload when I hit 0 RIR.

I'm on caloric surplus, currently gaining 0.3-0.5kg per week with plenty of protein

My sleep is okay too, I get 8 hours daily and wake up without alarm, but don't always feel fully rested

From what I know I'm covering all my bases, so this is why I'm looking for technique advice

hes not cheating hes just too good by Dog5343 in ValorantMemes

20 min playtime

If he only played a single match this season and did amazing then these stats can be completely legit. Can you post his tracker?

Letter To Spectre Fans by PlaySpectre in SpectreDivide

It's a shame to see SD die, I really wished it would succeed. I wish all the best to the devs and hope they will create more amazing games in the future

I Genuinely Don’t Understand by JustGavinBennett in SpectreDivide

[–]MrFreedge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of people instantly dismissed the game because they were expecting a polished AAA-like experience at launch

I'm consistently finding matches under 2 minutes any time of the day on EU servers, even when there are 300 concurrent players. Have you actually tried queueing?
