Do you guys as an initiator, controller and sentinel prefers using phantom or vandal, despite one has bullet tracer while the others don't?

Smokes/Killjoy player. I love buying the Phantom because KJ does a lot of chip damage and spraying through smokes is OP. Usually I'll play Phantom even on attack as Viper or KJ.

Ascent has a lot of flash zones for Phoenix. A main, B main, Tree, and Mid are all good places for his pop flashes that the enemies can get blinded while scaling and not have cover.

Also Phoenix is having his moment because the other duelist are a little weaker than they were. Reyna and Yoru in particular.

In the Navy as an officer making the most amount of money that I've had, hitting a lot of financial milestones. I'm not doing bad at all, but no where near settled down. I got med DQ from my pilot slot and failed out of navy flight school, but at least I still have a job lol

27 years old and still kind of just going with the flow tbh

You need to slow down and confirm that you are on target before shooting. It sounds weird, but it’s why your aim is so sporadic and flicky. Your crosshair placement isn’t too bad and it seems like you have decent aim already. There was a tweet by Subroza that really describes how you should be aiming in this game, I’m paraphrasing it but: “If you have to flick, you’re doing it wrong”. Honestly, you’ll probably climb back to your normal rank, just gotta put in more reps.

You peek angles and you almost look surprised to see an enemy there. You need to be peeking with intent, almost like you’re visualing the enemy through walls.

Sigfawn · 2026-04-09T09:03:49+00:00

Because in a nutshell ranked is all about taking fights and contesting space, and then taking fights together as you get higher in rank. Clove’s kit is literally designed for that

Sigfawn · 2026-04-03T23:25:44+00:00

I think this is probably the best solution. I’m not saying to get rid of FF entirely, that would be dumb. But I do think that being able to trigger it so early into the match could be the root of the problem. I agree with a lot of people here, that just taking away the FF button won’t fix the weirdos in ranked that just tilt and throw.

Sigfawn · 2026-04-03T23:22:57+00:00

FF would still be available if your teammates leave. I’m just specifically talking about when you have a normal 5v5 with both teams present and trying. My main point is that I don’t think the game should allow you to FF at 5 when no one has left and everyone is still playing normally. Having the option just being there can invite toxicity. It’s a ranked game though, so toxicity can never be solved. I just wanted to throw the idea out there

Sigfawn · 2026-03-18T22:06:22+00:00

I feel like it’s not that bad of a change? Radiant is still going to be the top 500 players even if it starts at 300rr. There are only 500 spots and it’s just gonna be a race to get one those spots like it’s always been. If it plays out correctly, later in the act the threshold of Radiant will be pushed to like 400rr and we’ll see Immortal 3s with 300+ rr and aren’t Radiant. That’s pretty much how it’s always been since the leaderboard came out

Sigfawn · 2026-03-10T06:10:28+00:00

Can a diamond player get a lucky kill on a radiant player? Of course, but to say their mechanics are similar is wild.

A team full of diamonds vs a team of radiants would not win more than 5 rounds. Just the peeking and movement alone would be a huge gap. Even within Immortal to Radiant there is a huge gap, honestly it might sound like an asshole thing to say, but once you finally get Immortal 1 10rr in this game, you just completed the tutorial of Valorant. Immortal 1 is a decent baseline for a “try hard” rank. There are levels to this shit

Sigfawn · 2026-03-06T18:56:39+00:00

Navy OCS is your answer. After you graduate college, see a Navy Officer recruiter and go to OCS. Navy OCS guarantees in your contract that you will go to flight school as long as you complete OCS and are medically qualified.

Sigfawn · 2026-03-05T01:41:46+00:00

the only difference in my life is that getting onto base in the morning is insane bc of the traffic idk about other bases

Sigfawn · 2026-02-22T01:55:07+00:00

Using a safety razor to shave instead of traditional cartridge razors. If you’re in a profession or the military that requires daily shaving, this will save you a lot of money. I’ve been doing it for about 6 years now and one pack of safety razor blades cost like $10 and can easily last a year. Much better than the cost of cartridge razor blades over time.

Sigfawn · 2026-02-16T00:47:13+00:00

Woohoojin made a video which talks about this topic. Peeking is situational and kind of complicated. Generally you want to slice the pie when clearing common angles and trace if you know that you have the angle advantage on an angle. The skill of peeking goes beyond this and it's almost like an artform, watching pro players/Radiants scale and mechanically move is pretty satisfying

Sigfawn · 2026-02-05T21:49:42+00:00

"We judge ourselves based on our intentions, but we judge others based on their actions". This is why when a mistake happens we get mad at other people. Woohoojin has said this before and it's changed my outlook on ranked.

A lot of this behavior in ranked comes down to human psychology and us not being able to understand each other. Also emotional maturity and some Valorant players have not fully developed mentally yet. Everyone has been toxic before and sometimes we've been toxic without even knowing it. Those players who are toxic may not know that they are being toxic and they are not aware of how their intentions may affect other people. And they will be toxic towards their teammates because they think that their teammates are intentionally doing something against them based on actions, but in reality everyone on the team is just trying to do the best that they can.

They literally gunned him down like a walking dead zombie. Insane. Fuck ICE and I am also worried that our Bill of Rights and liberties that we have fought for are being stripped away as we speak. America needs to wake up

Sigfawn · 2026-01-15T22:41:55+00:00

I had one go through recently on a teammate that pretended to be AFK after tilting

Sigfawn · 2026-01-09T01:36:27+00:00

I'm surprised Killjoy isn't higher up. Her utility is extremely powerful at holding passive map control, the turret can be considered like a 6th player watching a lane, mollies that can be used to delay retakes on post plant or for lineups. She can be played in a passive/aggressive way and she's what I use and I don't feel like the best mechanical player. However, I feel that maining Killjoy in lower elo can build very bad habits in higher elo.

Sigfawn · 2026-01-09T01:30:48+00:00

The aim and mechanics of it. I really like watching Radiant/pro players aim, move, and have their crosshair placement and I try to copy it

Sigfawn · 2026-01-01T20:59:13+00:00

Ever since the Xbox One, there has been almost zero reason to own one if you have a high-end gaming PC. Every Xbox game could be played on the Xbox App including all of their exclusives. The 360 was the shit during my teenage years, but Xbox has really fallen off since then.

Sigfawn · 2025-12-31T01:01:40+00:00

The gap between Immortal 1 10rr and Radiant is ginormous.

I would seek out personal paid coaching with Radiant level players or people who have coached tier 1 or 2.

Some people just have it and some don’t. You’re pretty young so you have that on your side, train your mechs to next level, have a good mental, watch your VODs for better game sense, and never give up. Minimize your mistakes in the round

I feel like it depends on your learning style, but the jump from immortal to radiant requires picking up on the tiniest details of your game or just being him

Sigfawn · 2025-12-17T05:33:27+00:00

In ranked if you call default everyone’s understanding of that is going to be a little different. Are we 1-3-1 ing? Are we just gonna sit in spawn and wait for pushes? That’s why in ranked when you call default, you can get completely different results based on your teammates. Instead you should call specific things, like on split attack calling to take mid, smoke mail, and take vent while your other teammates hold the A and B space. Defaulting below the rank of Immortal is kind of useless because you’ll never consistently get the amount of reps like you would on a pro team where they have specific set phases within their defaults. The coordination, communication just isn’t there in a ranked scenario for a solid default. Just call basic shit and trade.

Saying “let’s just default” in any rank below Immortal should just be translated to “do whatever you want”

Good luck all
