The LAN schedules hurt my ass

No hate to u, i just get a weird sense of satisfaction watching NA-tards complaining abt scheduling issues

Cause u can finally suffer like we normally do lol

That's the problem we can't, the whole f0rsaken incident set back Indian eSports by almost a decade

On top cultural and economic factors make it impossible to find even 5 Players who've played for a long time

Remember most probably players in the west have been Playing since they were 10 - 13 years old, most Indians won't even get to Play on a PC and those who do only do so much later in their lives (more like 15 - 17 yrs old) the problems we face are stuff u can't even comprehend

And 85% of those can't even afford a wifi connection or a phone over 200 usd

Let alone a pc that's worth anything, and PC Cafe culture is geared towards serving the upper classes so it's damn near impossible to actually tap into this massive population

Well everything except tokyo and shanghai are Mickey mouse for us by ur retarded ass logic (also then EMEA - 1, Pacific -1 . Americas can collectively jump off a Cliff)

Suck it up bro, APAC has had to stay up and ruin our sleep schedules and health to even watch international valorant for 8 out of 11 tournaments, u can stay up and burn for once u entitled wimps

Probably SEN, FNC and PRX

In terms of impact, theses 3 teams have had the greatest influence by far

Think ull like summertime rendering, perhaps one of the best mystery animes ever made

A few other recommendations would be cowboy beeboop, howls moving castle (this one's a movie tho), mob psycho 100 and since u like world building I'd put one piece in there too, especially considering the Anime is entering the final saga and things are getting wild it.

What happened, surely u don't bench your best player?, is he sick or something?

Day4

https://youtube.com/live/CzmXKKonrKY?feature=share

Had to urgently touch grass, so i needed to cut short today's session quite a bit
oh and i just realised i was playing at my older, much higer sens in aimlabs ( kill me, how did i not notice this sooner?, i have no fking idea ) and had to set it back to normal

still i feel much better in game, the grind is working i hope

Day 3

https://youtube.com/live/wxlLb982f5s?feature=share

Had to bounce after the 1st rep on the last task
Slight improvement from day 2 but nowhere near as good as day one, need to keep my grip consistent

Plus idk if it's the windex or mouse wear but the glide is feeling a little different on my mouspad

i already play at an edpi of 616 💀

as for kovaaks, well i do have the aim trainner, i just havent come around to using it yet, i just wanted to start and be consistent for now

id also be nice if u could suggest some good koovaks tasks?

yeah ur right, ill have to trim the time i spend on this once clg starts again

but more than anything i just want to start a routine and be consistent in something to start with

18

could u suggest some good tasks and explain why mine are bad

as for DM's, ive tried but i feel my aim has improved the most when i aim trained consistently i still do DMs and in game warm up tho , besides i have out of game reasons for this as well

Day 2
Cut Down 2 of the Tasks coming down to 46 mins and ill also be tracking the scores on a spread sheet

https://youtube.com/live/EtVDkMVunp4

Monsoon's a bitch(power cuts, again)

How have SA teams actually gotten worse? even the casters on universe play's stream are admitting the standard of valorant isn't good enough, man just why???

I'm not gonna be aim training for 1 hr, I'm still trying to figure out which tasks to cut so it came out to an hr + I'm taking frequent breaks in between which is why the vod is longer

I wanted to keep it at 40 mins Max, but i just wanted to start for now, i haven't been consistent anywhere in my life for a long time and figured I'd start being consistent with something that just the right difficulty level for me mentally

Thx for the tips bro, i already use switchtrack and sixshot and ill look into the rest

Gl on ur climb, i want to get to immo too one day, hope to see u there

Nah I'm still plat(if I was a problem I wouldn't be here lol)

For me aim training has worked tho, some of my best Performances have come when I consistently aim trainied for multiple days (never got past the 4 day point tho)

And DM's haven't had the same impact, but again it's hard to come to a conclusion when there has been 0 consistency in anything I do

I'm still trying to narrow down which tasks to cut to bring it down to 40 min
Plus I take 2 min breaks between every 2 tasks so that adds to the time too

Day 1

https://youtube.com/live/kzIUWWZm-jg?feature=share

had to cut the session short due to a power cut

I"ve always aim trained, however i have always been super inconsistent(and by that i mean aim training like 4 times a month) and never made it a routine.

so in order to make sure i keep myself consistent, ill be posting my aimlabs vods in this thread, every single day i can(which is most of the days), i will also post updates on days i cant aim train but in order to make sure i dont slack, i need to aim train atleast 4 times per week

and while ur at it feel free to roast my music taste if u want

Big props to the goat Mjtchell since I'm basically ripping off his gym accountablity post

So wish me luck, this will be Day 1

PRX
2022 GenG
Sentinels
T1's jackets
G2 and lev (especially the old ones)
100 thieves

Is it just me or does it look like GenG are incredibly conservative with their time-outs, they could've made Lotus easier if they had called that time out earlier plus they haven't called a time out on bind so far

Why t3xture tho, pretty sure he didn't call them monkeys or whatever?

Or is it cause of geng winning msi?

Nah he was fine, but he's not as cheery/bubbley as he normally is and that's a little concerning for geng

Man's not been hot this tournament, is being in china getting to him or something?, he doesn't even look as cheerful as he normally does, even in the group stages

He needs to bring his mental back otherwise geng are fked

2021 gambit and it's not even close, that team deserved better

Ik this is kinda weird but having a valorant event in a legendary CS City like Katowice or colonge would be kinda sick

And imo 2026 should be held in Singapore, Jakarta or Saigon

Fyi fnatic won tokyo with Derek one tricking razer the whole tournament, so yes his razer is really good

Nah they just ran into a bad match up, turkey t2 is just insane

Hopefully they can keep the form up through out the tournament

Also life is just as crazy as ever

Damn. We close to 300 huh?

Also if they win champs
The MALD in this thread would be unreal 😂

Seeing myron fking gains in the thumbnail is THE biggest red flag u can see in any vid

He made the fking team bruh

1. GenG

2. PRX

3. Irrelevant

Damn the Thai brain fk is real huh??

Pls look at sentinels maps again💀

John and zellsis have swapped the hard sentinel and viper role, so ur stats are outdated, HECK HE HASN'T PLAYED VIPER ALL SPLIT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE 1ST GAME, PLZ ATLEAST DO UR RESEARCH PROPERLY ITS NOT THAT DIFFICULT MY FRIEND

Quality of the win in the sense how important a win is, like winning a master's event or winning a champions event

What I'm saying is SEN should prioritise Preparing for champions especially cause of the timing of the Nerfs and how much they change the meta, the teams who go to shanghai will have little time to prepare.

But if sen qualify for shanghai I'm not complaining, I still wanna see them win uk

Bruh zellsis hardly plays much viper lol, idk if u even watch the games 💀

It's a win sure, but the quality of the win also takes precedence no?

U should root for them to get knocked out of play-offs, and for good reason

They've already been running on empty strats wise for a while, and add the viper nerfs on top and they're gonna need time to cook, the extra time getting ready for S2 will be a godsend to get their strat books as deep as possible.

cause of they can get ahead of the meta like they did for Kick off, they're winning champs, ez clapz

Bruv no reasonable sen fan is hating on G2 for doing their job

If anything as a secondary sen fan myself I'd rather they not qualify and prepare for the next split, cause whoever's going to shanghai are gonna be Captial B BURNT for S2 with all the viper nerfs

For pro play, yes definitely if an agent has numbers that make peak chamber look balanced, yeah she needs nerfs

However unlike Jett and chamber who were and still are top 5 in terms of ranked pick rate, viper is not that popular in ranked, at the time of this thread viper is the least picked controller besides harbour and her win rate isn't much better either, just look at astra for an example of what will happen, her pick rate wasn't great even at her peak, and now she's even worse, and Viper is even more niche than astra

Besides in most games below ascendant, PPL still have no idea how to play with or against a 2nd controller viper, i can't remember how many times I've gotten flamed for picking viper on a map that wasn't icebox or breeze or for throwing supposedly "troll walls" on those maps, hell even on Breeze or icebox 50% of the time I see An omen or clove on the other team and the only reason we have a viper is cause i main the bitch Harder than most diamond Jett mains💀.

While I will admit she's still op in ranked when played as 2nd controller, i will not dispute that, however riot are once again making the same mistake they made with Jett and chamber, Nerfing everything other than the OP part of the kit, with viper that would be the unpredictability and map influence of her wall, Nerfing the wall imo is the only way viper can be reasonably nerfed

Overall imo this patch is a failure that will not change how viper is played in pro play for the most part, but will absolutely gut her ranked viability

Riot are digging their own grave with the tools that sent overwatch and rainbow six six feet under, and as someone who was a fan of both eSports in the past, it's beyond frustrating

Plat chat wouldn't be half as entertaining without mimi, she's chaos incarnate and u need that on set sometimes

Nah that would be sen vs 100t, they had beef all the way back from 1st strike

It wasn't the "sentinel play style" that needed a nerf it was viper's ability to put pressure on an entire lane of the map with a push of a button with little to no counter play when Played at even a semi competent level

Yeah sure find a duo who plays primary smokes kkkkk

MFER i need to flex on 5 different agents to fit in my irl valo grps, and not everyone is gonna duo. HECK IF I WANT TO PLAY VIPER SOLO QUE, I NEED TO HOVER DUELIST TO EVEN GET A PROPER COMP, I SWEAR EVERY SINGLE TIME 2-3 PPL IN THE TEAM GO"AHHH WE LOST WE HAVE 2 CONTROLLERS" OR WHATEVER

Is viper op as a a 2nd controller in ranked, yeah obviously, but also remember that half the player based still don't know how to play with or against a proper double controller, idk how many times my teammates flame me for"putting bad walls" when using the bind a short setup 💀💀💀💀

I'm not a one trick pony lol, (if i was, I'd have an abyssmal time in ranked lol)viper's just my favourite agent to play

I'm just pissed they're doing roundabouts AGAIN, FOR FKS SAKE THEY DID THE SAME THING WITH JETT AND CHAMBER, NOT TOUCHING THE DASH AND TP UNTIL THE NERFED LITERALLY EVERYTHING ELSE

just nerf the wall already plzzz

The problem is she's more of a sentinel now, they basically Nerfed her ability as a controller with the orb getting stuck

But her sentinel play style is still gonna remain, plus viper's plant Denial is now dead due to the smoke changes, but not even addressing the root of the problem Is what frustrates me

They did the same thing with Jett and chamber too, except viper is only a problem in pro play and pretty much below average in solo que

So for all intents and purposes they Nerfed her solo que viability without affecting her pro play usage by much
