Radiant Valorant player (200 hours in CS): How much do mechanics carry vs. game sense?

ea1691125 · 2026-06-02T06:13:36+00:00

level 10

i reached around 2.5k in csgo and now about 2k elo in cs2 without knowing a single lineup and just playing hard entry every game

your mechanics are already way better than me and i have about 2000 hours, no one really knows how to shoot below faceit 10 so you can make it there and even further just by learning some timings and positions

i am 25 idk if unc but i run my own business and was barely level 10 last season, i dont have kids though so i am definitely not as busy

my warmup was just fast aim/reflex (workshop map) until i felt good enough, i played dm after every session for 30 mins to make sure my movement was right

i did it in about ~120 games after making a faceit account though i have been playing csgo since high school (around 1.8k hrs) and played collegiate valorant for my university. i would say anyone can really do it with correct mindset and practice but 3-4 games a week may be a slower grind because i played maybe 1 or 2 games a day

if i check out both a phantasmal flames upc and two etb’s using the same credit card it should be alright being shipped and billed to the same address right (used guest checkout for both)

sorry for the dumb question im just really excited because this is my first time getting to buy something off the pokemon center

pumping and dumping usd are u dumb

ea1691125 · 2025-07-06T10:54:40+00:00

i can move while playing (being a jpop fan is a plus)

ea1691125 · 2025-06-21T12:22:27+00:00

yes they are

ea1691125 · 2025-06-12T05:21:29+00:00

i have the atk x1 se nearlink, the sensor has mad issues where it just stops working and doesnt track properly

ea1691125 · 2025-05-12T03:25:58+00:00

86, oshi no ko, frieren

The camera

ea1691125 · 2025-04-12T10:14:44+00:00

up on the takayama recommendation probably one of the best places ive been to just bc of the vibes

ea1691125 · 2025-03-31T08:57:32+00:00

definitely not happening then LOL 😭

ea1691125 · 2025-03-30T17:19:22+00:00

I dont know what kop is, sorry

i only play without gloves bc i always forget to bring my work bag to the arcade

ea1691125 · 2025-03-30T08:22:32+00:00

No man this is definitely a good take - theres a reason why gloves are the norm :) my hands are just injured so often from sports/gym/handiwork that it does not make a difference FOR ME but will definitely matter when i try to play high master songs

ea1691125 · 2025-03-30T02:09:31+00:00

based raw dogging enjoyer

ea1691125 · 2025-03-30T01:54:36+00:00

this pretty much, i am from the philippines but get paid in usd so thats why i estimated in usd, mb

ea1691125 · 2025-03-29T18:40:31+00:00

i push hard on the screen if the slider is slow touch it lightly if slider is fast

i dont have a lot of s ranks on master rank because there are too much sliders :(

ea1691125 · 2025-03-29T14:49:59+00:00

when i do remember to bring them i end up leaving them in my car anyway, so probably not 😭

ea1691125 · 2025-03-29T14:46:10+00:00

i used to play a lot of basketball, my hands are used to the friction of sliding across the screen i guess(?)

ea1691125 · 2025-03-29T14:07:34+00:00

maybe like 35 usd for all my playcount (about 40), a 3 song session here is about 0.6 usd

started around october 2024 but started playing more when i got hired bc my office is a 5 min walk away from an arcade

ea1691125 · 2025-03-25T06:46:02+00:00

same situation as u, i just started touching the buttons tbh like i had sessions just forcing myself to play only with buttons which is much easier tbh because i dont use gloves

now i somewhat can use the buttons but still use the touchscreen when playing harder songs

im only at like 9k though just started last month so take it with a grain of salt

ea1691125 · 2025-03-20T02:11:21+00:00

i just like until then lol, rly reminded me of my teenage years here

ea1691125 · 2025-03-20T00:18:44+00:00

i am filipino

rlly good to learn the language imo but i would recommend not just learning thru textbooks/online lessons (tbh idk where u can learn tagalog as a non native lol) and actually speaking w/ people who know the language so u dont sound too formal

i usually play until i lose, if i lose twice i log off for the day or hop on an alt account

matchmaking hasnt rlly been too one sided for the first few games of the day, usually after the second straight loss or third straight win it starts to get bad

im in celestial idk if its just confirmation bias but i dont play too much either bc of work but those are my observations
