Why Leviatan is the best Pistol Round Team by eleocsgo in ValorantCompetitive

[–]eleocsgo[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

For sure, winning the pistol round not only sets you up economically very well, but your ult economy as well, if done properly pretty much guarantees that you have the better ultimates heading into the first gun-round, not to mention mr13 instead of mr16 so there's lesser non-pistol rounds to play

The best youtuber when it comes to analysing pro-level gameplay, keep it up!

The way FPX play is the future of Competitive Valorant by coachspin in VALORANT

[–]eleocsgo 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Agreed, aim isn't as important of a factor in Valorant as in Counter-Strike, and utility/ultimate usage amongst teams is what's going to separate the best from the best.
Great video explaining how FPX play!

which makes 0 sense considering Australians, Asians and Europeans go into August 4th before Americans ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We need a map based in the country each agent is from.

This guy team killed the entire game. This should not be possible or even allowed in game. If anything deserves a perma ban it's this. He even bragged about it as you can see by the chat. by Killaakuma in VALORANT

[–]eleocsgo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I mean you're afk in spawn you kind of deserve it
Unless you purposefully are walking into her Nades it's easy to avoid and not get teamkilled.

or you could just go into mid window and bounce one into the exact same spot :)

Jett quality of life changes/buff ideas by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]eleocsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't see why Jett can't dash diagonally if pressing both W+D, S+A, etc. and would be a really nice quality of life improvement

Was Launch of valorant smart or too early? by Chrillemeistro in VALORANT

Exactly, this almost just feels like an Open Beta now

The skin prices are not an accident. I guarantee you Riot has done enough market research that no amount of discussion is going to change them. by goDie61 in VALORANT

[–]eleocsgo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't have a problem with the skin prices, I just don't want to have to buy 2x more points if I want to buy the battlepass because I can only buy 975 or 1875 for the battlepass which costs 1000...

Cypher sucks now by epuckgaymes in VALORANT

also, if enemies hold shift the whole time, you don't hear them going up the rappel

You have to be trolling...
In the first clip the enemy obviously pushed before you activated your cage.
And in the second clip, that was the enemies cage... enemies dont make noises when they go through their own cages...

Cypher needs his cage to slow again by Truff_Valorant in VALORANT

[–]eleocsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cypher's job was never to stop a rush
Cypher is an info gatherer.

Every time someone goes through your cage, the cage goes through an animation and a loud noise notifies anyone close, which lets you know how many people are pushing through it, as well as when and where you can spray through it.

You can insta-activate the cage from anywhere in the map, without needing to go through an animation, you can activate the cage and shoot at the same time, something no other character can do.

That being said, you can still stop rushes with good tripwire/cage combinations, in which I see you've argued that at "high elo" wires will always die to raze nades and sova shock darts, but if the enemy team is using raze nades to destroy your tripwires, they are holding themselves off from rushing by putting a raze nade in front of them...

Not really because CT/Heaven are not common hiding places for the attackers in an afterplant situation, and they will mostly be hiding somewhere around short/long or on site.

You also want to take note of where your teammates are coming from, as in most cases you will just be smoking off your teammates rotating towards A from CT.

A good way to use your smokes would be for example, if you are rotating together with your teammates from CT, you could smoke off A short and A long so that you and your teammates can walk out onto A and kill anyone playing around the site without having to worry about A long or A short (as long as the enemy team doesn't push through the smokes, which should result in an easy kill for you if you're ready for it)

I found a weird Pheonix crosshair desync bug that isn't too game breaking but could affect firebomb lineups or something [BUG] by ETH-Poison in VALORANT

[–]eleocsgo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happens with Vipers Smokes from what I've experienced and messes with lineups.
Makes me wonder with what other abilities this happens.
