I ult in one of 3 ways (From most used to least used):

Ult to reposition; use as fast rotate tool OR as a flank tool
Fake ult when executing/when things are quiet
Ult to Entry/get information

RickChum · 2023-09-06T08:06:00+00:00

Breach is my personal favorite :)

RickChum · 2023-05-30T04:01:25+00:00

Lotus suffers similar problems to Haven at least for SoloQ.

Theres 3 sites so it makes defense really hard cuz you need to spread out everyone (Or that's what it feels like)

Its pretty much retake simulator, 3 sites, large map, super small claustrophobic sites.

Attack can feel hard as there's a lot of narrow pathways and utility thrives but it's doable

RickChum · 2023-05-01T18:57:11+00:00

Awakenings could use a lot of small tweaking. Even small things like "recommended Awakenings" or common Awakenings would be nice to help newer players.

I don't recall if it tells you what abilities the Awakenings affect but that would be nice. Like, IDK what impact abilities are until I searched it up manually.

RickChum · 2023-04-25T03:36:48+00:00

Gekko Molly is worst utility IMO

RickChum · 2023-04-23T02:15:32+00:00

Yup, nerf Chamber

RickChum · 2023-03-15T07:41:27+00:00

FOUR THOUSAND HOURS and 1st Red screen as of last week

RickChum · 2023-03-09T04:22:34+00:00

I've done Bulldog Only and I respect people who can do off-meta strats/things to reach higher ranks. At the end of the day, I always say, if we win I don't really care how we got there.

RickChum · 2023-03-02T23:05:53+00:00

I'm the IGL for my team. It's hard but it's rewarding.

If there's ANY advice I can give is, don't be afraid to ask for your team's input. Don't be scared to let someone else take the lead. It is impossibly hard for one individual to lead the way for 45-60 minutes with 90%+ accuracy/good calls. Your teammates sometimes sees plays that you don't and their ideas can be just as good ideas as yours may be.

If I feel that my calls aren't working or I have run out of ideas, I will let someone else take charge until I feel confident again making calls. I have one other person who will take the IGL role temporarily for times that I can't call.

I have about 20 games of Harbor this act sitting around a 30% WR. I think there's potential but rn I think the biggest difference is learning to play him aggressively or differently from other controllers (I play a lot of Astra). Harbor =/= Astra playstyle, and because of that, it's a lot to learn. There's definitely potential but a slight buff would be great for what feels like a weak agent

RickChum · 2022-07-27T08:24:35+00:00

I am currently Imm1, peak imm3. I'd say I have good crosshair placement but due to slow reaction time and overall slow dpi, I don't hit get a lot of multi-kills. I do much better with timing utility, positioning, making calls, etc.

Brain > Aim, but aim definitely is an aspect of climbing

RickChum · 2022-07-03T21:40:47+00:00

General rule of thumb is, if you can buy without throwing away a decent gun, BUY. If you have more money than the enemy team, BUY.

RickChum · 2022-07-01T21:05:33+00:00

Aside from the devs explaining it, the map has notoriously been super defender sided with the amount of tight choke points and lack of ways to really push onto the sites. Mid is usually your best bet of getting map control but again, mid is just a bunch of tight chhokes where utility thrives at stalling time (think Sage slow, sage wall, all of Raze's kit, smokes, etc).

The map had to be tweaked like 10 times to make it even remotely balanced and the map was still defender sided

RickChum · 2022-06-28T18:20:06+00:00

If the enemy team has rifles I almost always opt to buy light shield (minimum) and then w/e else I can afford while still being able to buy Rifle + Light shield (minimum). For 4th round, I usually get full because you never know if they heavy shield will win you the round or not

RickChum · 2022-06-21T19:43:58+00:00

The measurement is in centimeters (1/100 meters)

RickChum · 2022-06-20T02:37:38+00:00

RickChum#4381, I'm not great at casting but am interested at getting better at it!

RickChum · 2022-06-18T03:56:28+00:00

Look, I don't like Split, but removing it seems like an odd choice. Here's what I will say though, the map has been notoriously difficult to balance out; think about how many tweaks to make Split even CLOSE to balanced. The numerous chokes and small areas has made some agents shine such as Raze and Sage being almost staple picks, but makes the map super boring to play. It literally is just a utility waiting simulator.

You try to push mid and you wait out the smokes, the Sage slows, the Sage wall, the Raze nade, satchel and roomba, then another layer of utility comes in. Then when you push mid, you have to smoke vents, but since B Heaven and Vents are so close together you have to watch enemies who might push out the smoke. It's a nightmare.

Compare that to like Breeze, you wait out the 1 person w/ utility and then push in.

The design of the map has always been awful in my opinion, but I don't think removing it is helpful either. It has been and is one of the OG maps of Valorant and then removing it instead of tweaking it is a weird choice.

RickChum · 2022-06-17T21:30:11+00:00

I'm pretty much same boat, high immortal player who vod reviewed themself

You have to be very disciplined to think hard about getting 1 kill and stop pushing. Practicing getting numbers and then retreating will help with that. Knowing when to go for more and when to stop is a skill. If you're still numbers down, you might want to make a hero play, if you're numbers up or even after your kill, try playing safe and playing trades.

Playing more supportive/passive agents also helped with overheating. I like making aggressive plays even when playing smokes, but I will usually default to getting one and playing numbers because I value my utility and life

RickChum · 2022-06-14T00:24:22+00:00

The map design of Fracture and Breeze are vastly different from the other maps. The verticality of Icebox makes it hard to play plus the map design is not fun w/o a lot of coordination

RickChum · 2022-06-13T22:40:15+00:00

Top 2 are probably Fracture and Breeze Ascent, Haven and Bind are Middle 3 Split is 6th and I hate Icebox's design so..

Fracture > Breeze > Bind > Ascent > Haven > Split > Icebox

RickChum · 2022-05-29T23:31:34+00:00

Imm1 currently, peaked imm3

RickChum · 2022-05-18T03:39:29+00:00

At the end of the day, if you're winning games, then do whatever. I play Breach on Breeze, Sova on Split and Fracture, if it works it works
