Hi man im so happy that im the first comment on a very popular ytuber
I love your content! I was just wondering where I can sign up myself for something like this?
I have the same problem
This was fun to be in, I really appreciate the opportunity! I will definitely use my ult more and work on my fade! 😁
You were great man
yo definitely played really well for a plat in my opinion
And use shock darts as well man
Lmfao lol bro ignored the ult lmfao.
@@slurp3194 u lmfao
In his defense, as a sova main, it can be a bit tricky to time when to use an ult, especially on attack. It's odd he didn't use it once but I think he played sova pretty well, although he seemed very lineup focused and not too much on how to actually play him. Good job H20!
I'm a viper main and whenever I play Omen, Sova or Reyna I completly forget to ult as much when im with Viper maybe this was the problem
@@Chookity-Pok bro ur name lmfaooo

I agree. So a is so hard to know when to use ult, because when you’re the only one, they could sneak past the ult. when your whole team is alive you don’t usually have enough info to know where they are. You really need info to know when to use Hunters Fury
this stream chat was ruthless for no reason, he played exceptionally well considering all the players in that lobby were ascendant 3 which would be almost 6 ranks above him. his util was great apart from maybe not taking advantage of some easy post plant spots and his aim although not perfect was still great for the rank he is at. i think his biggest problem was his fear to commit, he seems to overthink plays especially when bringing out the drone.
Stream chat is always going to be that way because they don't watch their own demo replays, so they tend to think they're better than they are. When they think they're better than they are, they gauge the person they're watching against their idealized version of themselves, but at their actualized current rank. So the Bronze player who thinks their play is really clean and their opponents are just gods can identify mistakes when watching a POV and go "That person is playing that worse than I would", because they can identify some mistake, without realizing how prone they are to the same mistakes or worse.
Very commonly you'll see players that actually demo review their play are much less likely to put their foot in their mouth this way, and if they **do** make claims about their level relative to another player, it's more likely to be accurate because they've taken the time to actually analyze their play. Can't stress enough how uncommon it is to do that for casual players (Or, really, players that don't play organized formats like scrims and PUGs)

"He is not the HUNTER" lmao 🤣🤣
My story was EXACTLY like his. Playing from right when it was released, hard stuck in silver cause 40fps and stuttering. Upgrade to 240 fps. I literally flash my way out of silver. Before I know it I'm play and in a month or more I'm ascendant. Currently immo1
happy for you
Manifesting this!
So this is why I am hard stuck in bronz 1 for a year now, pay to win is key nice 🔥
I'm silver 1 when I still had a bad pc too. Now that I upgraded my pc, I'm still silver 1!
@@extreme4673 skill issue
for me its not the frames that hold me back, its how my screen will randomly freeze while playing valorant and I would have to hard reset causing me to get a penalty for afk.
Edit: Thx to likhith,ThatOneCreature0110 and bianca for the feedback, it has helped a ton. Thank You
i had this problem as well. try updating your bios and changing power management mode to balanced (if youve changed it). ive not had any crashes since and there arent many tutorials that say this. give it a try 👍
my game has recently been having this problem too. Ever since last patch my game started doing this and I've never figured out why. I downgraded my computer back to Windows 10 from Windows 11, which seems to have fixed it so far.
if you have win11 thats the problem, valo isnt optimized for win11. i juts changed my priority and it fixed my problem
@@alpacheri how do you do it?
so might be cpu lag try setting a lower max fps
this stream was fun af. . he plays well except a few nitpicks
uhm what?? most asc players play worse than him idk what ur on about
@@stephysun he never uses his ult
@@etgamer5432 in most situations using ult would get him killed or just do nothing
@@user-we3lq6tc9n most asc players would find a way to get in a position to use the ult, but the plat player just relied on his aim to win duels.
@@user-we3lq6tc9n There was about 3 different situations where it was post plant with 1 and 2 teammates left. He still didnt play ult. In ascendant Sova ults win rounds most of the time.
Sova ults are notoriously hard to time, since one wrong ult could fk up your entire team or an enemy could just rush you. Most of the time we use it in attacking when team is grouped up or if someone is trying to plant on another site.
One day I will get ascendant as well. I knew it was my PC problem
i believe in you
Just get c6 jett bro
You're ascendant in genshin
with 30 fps im g2 if u just get a constant 60 fps i could easily reach ascendent
equip artifacts for aces
This is actually pretty common. I bought my first pc two/three month ago. I was playing on a laptop before. From the moment that i bought it i went from g3 to ascendant 2 in just an act
Importance of good PC set-ups should be emphasized more if you want to be a better player, assuming that you've reached your wall when it comes to aim and game sense. We should really need acknowledge that without that comfort and aid brought by better gaming equipment, an individual would be capped at a lower level compared to those who had a better/greater PCs but had worse aim.
I also experienced being hardstuck in silver 1 on act 5 and at one point, I experienced being demoted to bronze 2. At that time, i'm only using my PC with wifi connection (with wifi dongle), 3 dollar mouse, and a 20 dollar decent mechanical keyboard. After using LAN cable for internet connection and upgrading to 15 dollar mouse, i literally shot past up to diamond within 15 days and climbed to ascendant 1 after an episode.
no rtx?
eggwick was shouting then randomly talked so calm when advertising i laughed so hard lmao
This makes sense. In overwatch I went from Gold to Diamond in like 2-3 weeks after getting better PC and faster monitor.
16:26
Eggwick: OH HES PLAYING FADE!!!
*zooms in on the wrong Fade*
Was stuck gold / plat for over few episodes with 60 fps, upgraded and went right to ascendant immediately lol
as someone who has peaked in ascendant with an i5 10500 and a gtx1650. your frames dont mean as much as you think, as long as you arent lagging constantly you can live off 100 frames. i hit ascendant 2 times on 80-120 fps.
So uhh.. what happens if my laptop randomly lags to 8 fps when its normally smooth-
It matters for me because i keep dying in gunfights
To be fair, some of the times he doesn't use utils are when he's left by himself and he has no info and he's not in a safe corner. I'd rather be holding a gun than a bow/shadow orb thing. Rather, it's more his pathing and positioning in those situations that need more work.
i actually understands this guy, he can go ascendent if he grinds because PC upgrade is a Huge factor when it comes to playing Esports title, I bought a new laptop with 165hz Refresh rate (legion 5 2021 with 3070 ) i went from Gold 3 to Ascendent 3 in 9 days Ep 6 Act 1 and now im immo 2 and 3 just dancing between the Ranks :)
I remember being stuck forever in s2 because of a bad pc, I got a new pc and shot up to D2 now and still climbing
There is a point in his argument because if your laggy enough you can’t defuse the spike and I’ve lost matches because of that but some benefits is sometimes if you miss it just gives you back your shot there’s also somthing about that that’s bad because it can happen if you hit them too but another op thing is you can sometimes see through smokes it’s happened to me 2x with the neon wall so there are ups and downs
22:16 'great for clearing s-' *dead*
whoever edited this absolutely killed me.
@19:41 sage's gun drops from the ice wall a second or two later and he thinks it is gun swap sound around trees, so he doesn't even bother to check the hell.
Yes I would guess Sova for guess the Plat in Ascendent lobby only because he went so long without using hit ult which is a huge problem in lower ranks so I would guess him lower. Other than that he has aim matched with the rest of them.
I feel this guy, I used to play on a laptop that couldn’t run on 60 fps, sometimes it just wouldn’t load
I think it would be very nice to see how these players doing when they are on a weaker side team. As u can see both the dualists on plat player team is significantly fragging better than the other. Which puts him at an easier position to trade, but what if he didn’t have those ppl to play off of?
yeah, but vise versa a lot of the time these players are on the losing side and theyre playing as consistantly as the rest of their teammates (all of the team going negative for example) but they look so much worse because theyre just losing by a landslide and the enemies are just better
He played pretty good in the first game but I think he could do more comms he didn't say much during the first game and he can also use his ulti more when they are rushing b every round. not too sure about the second game I was on the other team. Its was fun to be part of this
Bro really said >
Everybody thinks that its all about skills but one of the most notorious killer of great gameplay is packet loss and I hope valorant can do something about it
I agree, PC problems often do make you worse, I used to be far worse than my silver friends back when I played on 40 fps, the first round I played with my new PC was a custom with those same friends and at 400fps I absolutely destroyed them lol
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
19:45 the sage's gun made this guy think astra was tree or smth
That dart from a to c is such an old dart 😂 that was like when the game first came out and average Jonas was looking for lineups on every map
I thought the title was gonna be "this plat player says his pc was holding him back... so we made and gifted him a brand new gaming pc"
FINNALY now i can sleep in Peace with the new Upload 😔
From what i can see, he can comfortably go to diamond but not ascendant. He can touch ascendant but idk whether he can make do in a high ascendant/low immortal lobbies. His utility usage is barely anything but he does have good aim. The attacking darts requires more variation, and some other situation where u shouldnt go for a lineup, he should have winging it while running with his team to have better positioning. I barely ever seen him droning, this might be hindsight but it might be due to his teammate telling not to so who knows. Ults should be use, if u are scared to use or want to save for next round, it will never end well. Theres alot of situation where u should have ult'ed and are really safe (like in round 17, u should have backed off and ulted b site when they are executing, you are safe since theres an omen behind you plus B site is small, so you should get some picks). On pistol first round defending, u shouldnt use ur dart immediately cuz most of the time enemy just braindead rush into sites, use it for retake or helping the guy on site. Lineups shouldnt be used extensively, I barely ever have lineups since they require too much prep and uses too much time lining up where u should have position urself better in gun duels with your teammates. Sure there is some lineups u can use but most of them should be lenient and not pixel perfect. This is my opinion on him playing Sova.
I can relate, I was hardstuck iron because of my garbage laptop, upgraded to a gaming laptop which isn’t the greatest but the game is acc playable, I hit diamond in an episode, and I’m currently at immo1 looking to build a proper setup, so I can grind for radiant, ig one thing u can work on regardless of ur rig is game sense, because I ranked up by outplaying my enemies rather than outaiming them
Yeah I used to have a garbage pc and I could not get out of Diamond 2 for the life of me but once I upgraded I was able to climb to IM 3.
I have right play everytime but i cant even react because of lag and fps drop playing on 40fps still manage reach to p1 I’m pretty sure i can hit atleast dia or asc yeah fps games sucks
i laugh way to hard when he said "my god, he grinded himself...".
I was hard stuck gold cause i had 60 hertz monitor then i discovered the monitor could give 75 hertz(budget pc no multithreaded rendering) after that reached plat, then i got a laptop 144herts/180fps, i limit the fps to prevent over heating my laptop , stopped playing for some time and started playing again , reached diamond and this act reached Ascendant 2 (so i can relate hardware really holds you back but there is so much hardware can do, you have to know and admit your weaknesses and start strengthening them, daily exercise helps (physical)
The main thing about his gamesense is his utils usage. He don't use them much (shocks and ult)
Got too excited that he was playing fade that he didn’t realize that was the wrong guy
I always thought my internet was bad but apparently I only get 30-70 ping most games.
And yet I somehow teleport in the direction I was walking despite stopping a second earlier.
This guy in the video is the same as me,
Got to plat last episode from s3 and still hanging there p2, I am just not grinding rn, but I can easily get d3 no cappa.
my friend is literally the exact same situation (plat 1 says he deserves asc-immo bc he only gets 30-40 frames)
16:24 you zoomed in on the wrong fade haha
I feel as though he might be more of a high diamond. He can survive in Ascendant lobbies, but only just
Edit: Forgot to mention he was much more comfy on sova for sure
bro is line-up Larry holy, he has more lineups than me and I'm a D2 Brim Main.
12:34 Bro dodge the gekko e
someone should make a timestamp compilation of this dude's lineups holy shit
should stick to Sova and use ults when it can win you the round. Should try a different initiator instead of Fade probably Kay/0.
When you’re about to ace but then your wifi says no.
For the first few rounds when he wasnt fragging it kinda looks like he was just admiring the fps :).
He could've won so much rounds if he used his ult 😭
Love your vids
Im also the same but i peaked plat 2 and i think i could do better if i had a better pc im currently playing on 1060 or something x 768 resolution and i find it really hard to kill enemies with the huge crosshairs and i need to cap my fps to 60 because if i dont everytime my frames drop my pc would crash everytime i play fracture or pearl i drop to 55 and with a harbor on the team id be in 40
Bro is flexing on his darts XD I like it
I actually think that my laptop is holding me back at least a bit because I play on around 30fps but as soon as an enemy is close to me and peek me my fps drops to like 10 for 1sec
Bro then get a new one and if you can’t maybe don’t play valorant as sad as it sounds
im sorry at that point you just gotta find another game
THERE IS ANOTHER WAY
if you go into appdata/local/valorant/config then select the 1st one click gameusersettings. scroll down all the way to the bottom and put the values to 0. for your resolution quality, put 40-50 and try and see how it is then
@@immune855 no bc I it is still fun to play
Eggwick i love ur content
17:23 OH SHO - eggwick 2023
16:25 editor zoomed in on the wrong fade😂
bros recon dart lineups makin him not AverageJonas but StandardJohnson
Im playing Valorant for a year almost now, my friend introduced me to it. it's my first PC game I ever played and I'm hard stuck silver. I also have a very low end laptop and I don't even have WiFi I play on mobile internet so it's pretty much the case why I'm stuck at silver. Maybe considering it's my first PC game I ever played it's not easy for me to get good at it very fast so I think I will be good for for Plat atleast.
For me i dont have frame problems I just have a crap ton of ping spikes. I've tried everything to fix it but nothing worked. I've just summed it up to my wifi being bad and learned to deal with it. Hopefully Ill get gold soon
Bruh, I have literally the same situation. I was hardstuck gold. After upgrading my PC and 5 days - Im diamond 2.
I feel this. I used to play on a laptop with max 30fps. Low res and minimum of 90ms :)) playing on that unlimited mobile data plan. KEKEKEKEKE
util usage esp in game 2 was pretty bad. stats were also kinda inflated since he kept staying back baiting his teammates
4:09 gets pick short, plants for short, gets greedy and doesn't play on the plant for short. Good lineups, good aim, has a great info play, but should not be the last player alive if it can be helped. Especially with FPS diff.
i got up to diamond before acendant existed on 60hz, i will say it is way easier on higher but it is possible
i’m dia rn 60hz
never Ever piss into the wind
I swear I had an "I love emilia" smurfing in my game like yesterday
It's true, before ascendant came out i had a laptop only 60fps and i went all the way to diamond. I knew my hardware was holding me back. Got a pc after months of saving/earning and made it to immortal in literally 2 weeks.
Diamond with 60 fps?
@@ishaankumar4587 yepp dia 3 on 60fps before ascendant came out
The problem for me is my frames. my refresh rate is 60 but most time it is 40 or below and while im in gun fight my fps just dips to like 10 fps and i loose.
26:18 sucky sucky like what is that💀
I went from low diamond with a 60 hz laptop to immo 2/3 after getting a pc. U do gain like a lot of rr after upgrading
Bro I feel his pain I’m hardstuck silver and I also think it’s cuz of my setup. My ping constantly jumps to almost 1000 and my frames are averaging 50-70. Even with my lag I still top frag almost every game
Just described my exact situation, the random jumps to 5000 ping and the constant rubberbanding makes playing with friends unenjoyable at best
I played FPS for years and got lag spikes like that. Never thought it would be wifi as i was near the router. I bought a powerline adapter and ever since then i've never had lag.
@@Afiriss I feel you man
i got a horrible setup and tons of ping but i am dia
i kept thinking the squeaking in the background was my dog
02:14 have the penguin buddy
I used to be hardstuck silver when I was playing on my laptop. Once I upgraded to pc I got to plat easily and now I'm Asc2 climbing up to immo;P
Honestly, I'm pretty shit at the game. I got a computer upgrade and yes I did make it to ascendant but it wasn't anything crazy. The only problem I have is playing on a laptop screen is so painful (I react really slowly if the enemies are further away, because I legit dont see them lmao) and I long for the day I upgrade to a bigger monitor.
i also have same problem i have a i7 3gen 3gb ddr3 ram :( i just optimize it fully but i can only 30 to 40 fps max and from unranked then i got to silver3 last act
Luigis mansion intro music! 💙
This is literally me, I’m hardstuck plat and I always blame my pc (bc it is my pc) I always drop frames and can’t even stabilize at 100 fps and it makes me inconsistent and I always say I deserve ascendant.
Frames do in fact win games - me 2023 (quoted from eggwick)
I can definitely say your pc affects your performance a lot, i used to play on a crappy laptop which used to stutter and give like 40fps, i have a pc now with a big monitor and 244hz. I have gone from bronze to plat, btw i dont play much usually like 4-5 every 2 weeks
Kept thinking my dog was up at 3am playing with her toy 😂
day idek of asking eggwick to do a jett vs raze ( or jett vs jett) unlimited abilities tournament where they can’t touch the ground for a few than a seconds ( say if their on ground for more than 5 or 10 sec they get eliminated)
AKA mid air battle with chaos
The only thing that holds back other players are fps and hz, played on my friends high end pc and never look at my potato pc the same as it was
So I started playing in January, ranked in at Silver 1 and bounced between silver 1 and 2 for about 2 months and now I’ve just shot from silver 1 to gold 3 and I’m at 77 r points to get to Plat, is that good progress?
For me, my wifi is holding me back with frequent 2000 ping strikes every night. I assume i got throttled at download speed to 2 Mbps..
Chats be going like they all pros... Sova's ult isn't an arrow you just shoot
I deserve ascendant but I'm being pulled down by my skill
sova ult is so good in the first half he should have used it
I can agree this is true because i play on laptop and i lag every second
How to join one of your videos(i mean to play as a player) ? 😮❤
bro im complaining about the lack of ult
huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhhhhhhhhhhuuuuuffffffffff grunts to try to be angry
Sova seems like (I’m only half way through the video) a good player not that good aim but good team player if they had coms they would do a lot better. But seems like they could hit ascendant soon if they learn how to use their util effectively
sometimes i feel like you just won't use certain ults.
I hate how when he drones after he gets one he cancels the drone. He can get more info though
I should be sleeping but let’s see the content!
i was hardstuck bronze/silver for over year when i played on my laptop i just got my pc and got to diamond in one act
