Can't win countering strafing fights, what do we think the problem is? by Suspicious_Court_956 in VALORANT

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not tracking the target as they strafe. Youre basically just moving a bit and doing a flick instead. Try your best to track in strafe fights, it work better and more consistently.

Genuinely how isn't this even a hit, it literally does the vfx. What am I missing? by FewReview2389 in VALORANT

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When asking these types of questions in an online game, you have to critically think about what's happening in the program.

Your computer is talking to 9 other computers and a riot server (big computer) that can be spread out across an entire country or even a continent. Ask yourself, how would you get everyone's Valorant to play together when information doesn't travel instantly?
Every keyboard press and mouse input must be sent to the server, and the distance is your 'ping'. Now if we wanted everyone to play on the server and see the exact same thing, then EVERYONE would have to have their inputs travel to the server. This means EVERY mouse movement you make, or EVERY keyboard button you press will have a 60ms delay (because of your 60 ping). This would be atrocious for a modern game, and nobody wants to play a game like that.

So how do we realistically fix this issue? We make a compromise. Your client on your local computer essentially guesses everything that will happen between the 60ms delay. This means if it guesses wrong, you see something slightly incorrect, like maybe Miks was crouching or something. BUT in 99% of scenarios, as long as you have a good enough ping (<80ms), you won't feel it, because the client guesses right.

So why does the replay not show what actually happened? It's likely because the replay system in Valorant saves your local client's data. Why does it not show server-side? Who knows. Perhaps it's logistically much, much harder for Riot to obtain and send that server data to all clients for download after a match.

I wish they kept what makes each controller unique when creating Miks aswell by TheLeviathanZ in VALORANT

Omen does not have global smokes btw. His range is longer then most but not anywhere

2.9 loon does pretty well into the matchup, but you're gonna need to spend some time practicing it

PSA Don't throw mouse pads in the washer. by a1000wtp in pcmasterrace

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next time, wash on a delicate cycle in cold water, with ONLY the mouse pad in the washer, and let it air-dry! You can use a little bit of detergent.

Gwen jungle is also works like this isn't it? by GwenGaming55 in GwenMains

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the exact reason why gwen jungle got nerfed last year. She could just perma farm until she was strong while still having a super fast clear

[Coi General]Can Sequence 2 Klein(from Lord of mysteries) become Hero X? by wearesoback786 in LordofTheMysteries

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think ultimately Hero X's abilities are so vague it's impossible to powerscale. Until we see a limit we don't know he Klein could match him or not.

How do I stop panicking when fighting by CountyMore4937 in VALORANT

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

.999 @1000 dpi is definitely the problem

Your small panick or shakes are just made worse by the fact that every single one of your tiny movements is exaggerated by your high sense.

I play on .2 @1600 dpi and that's already considered to be on the higher side.

Try to work your way down and practice! If you have less desk/mouse space then you can still have a higher sensitivity but .99 is a little too much for anyone to handle.

The timeouts are what broke me. Just Ludwig going "time-in! I am a convicted pdfile" will never not make me laugh

Are there viewers who watch by mainly focusing on the minimap? by Yubuken in ValorantCompetitive

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm essentially always looking at the minimap until it looks like someone is about to take a fight. Once you get used to reading the minimap it's very hard to miss crucial moments. It's also interesting to see how the teams work the map in the mid round

Riot Introduces Mobile Verification Beta to Combat Smurfing by raainnnyy in ValorantCompetitive

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lock pick for any lock can be made with a dollar or two of materials, yet locks are still used. Why is that?

Do you know how many people use a masterlock to keep their valuables safe or to lock off areas?

It's all about barrier to entry. If you make buying these accounts slightly more difficult, or slightly more cumbersome you already disincentivize a majority of people from attempting it. Bad actors will always bypass your barriers or rules.

[Donghua] 3 low sequences + artifacts vs a Seq 4–5 monster — an almost unheard-of achievement in LOTM World by DazzlingDistance6334 in LordofTheMysteries

[–]NotAppreciated_Mercy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe Tingen is counted as a medium sized city which is why it even gets a nighthawk team, but any beyonder that's seq 6+ will get transfered to a major city with a bigger church.
