We just published a brand new course on how to win your gunfights feat. pro player and 18x radiant thwifo: bit.ly/thwifo-course-yt Make sure to check it out here and start improving today!
So the general Idea of Strafing is 1) peek-wait-peek 2) strafe if your crosshair isn't aligned 3) stop if your enemy stop first 4) varies your movement so it cannot be predicted
Still dont understand how to use it at all. Like, at higher ranks even if guys stoping first and you keep strafing, they have first shot advantage, so they just stops you with there first bullet or killing you in head
@@FonKard With time to will develop a feeling. Often you just go "oh shit, I got peeked and my crosshair is not ready" so you keep strafing and the enemy misses you for that reason (there's a lot of examples of that in the video and these are on immo-radiant elo). Shooting the first bullet doesn't always mean you're winning the fight.
Just started playing and im in awe of how you completely described my number one problem, showed me what I was doing wrong and showed me how to fix it. The algorithm can read minds I swear it
This literally explains the parts I was struggling with and confused about in gunfights. Like, there would be situations where I genuinely don't know where I went wrong or could've improved. But your example gunfights looked similar to the ones I was dealing with and I understand now what to change. First video to actually help.
Coming from CS:GO movements, no wonder I always think my movements somehow become bad for initiative peeks when it comes to duels. This video has made me understood of the in-depth movement of Valorant. Thank you for this guide!
Its made deliberately so it favors the slower reaction time players for a balanced, newbie friendly experience. Thats why when you are peeking and shoot, hide back , let enemy shoot and miss bullets and then re-peek you 99% win the gun fight unless the match score is like 4-0, 7-1 or 9-2 or some shit. LMAO a great example is 3:37 on this video, I didnt even watch until here before commenting
You guys will blow up soon - it’s starting to hit on the algorithm. I find your videos to be educational, accessible, and easy to understand. You heard it here first
Quick reccomendation, when peaking angles, dont get tense and overthink. You might end up deathgripping your mouse and giving yourself inconsistent aim. Another tip, reset your aim after every angle you swing
i havent played valorant properly for many episodes, so im glad that this video popped up for me again ! all these tips are so helpful especially the svs dynamic, i realised i get killed to many players doing that and i usually lose. thank you so much for this video very helpful :)
wanna be good play ton and play dm to practice map angles and learn from ur mistake no one on these vedios will help u u need to help ur self and at the end of the day you play vs 10+ hour player per day sweater no life ppl you wont do nun with 30 min and range good bye
the SVS technique was very very helpful. I feel like it was one of the main thing that I was unknowingly struggling with. It felt like I was always at a disadvantage when I was taking gunfights but I didn't know why. This was the reason and after consciously incorporating it into my gameplay I can definitely feel a difference,
In portuguese we call this breaking counter strafe left-right: Duas balas (meaning: two bullets) We in the most understand this concept but your video brought me more information that I didn't think about yet, SVS makes a lot of sense but it is more feeling when to use each one during the gun fight. I have to practice
This video is insane this is exactly what is my issue I find out that I am winning nearly always when I peek certain angles knowing that 80% of the time I am getting a fight like A showers on bind
Yeah, it's interesting how for some angles you have a really good feeling and for others not at all. Sometimes it just has to do with them being good/bad angles but sometimes it also applies to angles that I see pros play all the time (and I can't get a kill at all)
1. Apuntar cada angulo como si estuvieses seguro de que hay un rival detrás 2. Tomarse su tiempo luego de limpiar cada angulo 3. SVS: Straffear mas tiempo que tu oponente para que asi este dispare y pierda el duelo 4. Alternar tus movimientos entre tiro y tiro
This is a great concept that integrates well after you learn the Woohjin warmups. It makes sense to use your movement to align your crosshair because it makes it harder for the enemy to hit you. Great video!
Never heard the svs concept before. Well explained. This also explains why i do so much better when i play confidently, than carefully. I'd been doing the svs tactic to others, but now i see why sometimes i feel like im getting rekt at every corner.
this is all ive been looking for!!!! all those other UA-camrs recommend aim training when its not your aim but your movement and lack of ingame mechanics knowledge.
I've always wondered why I always get killed first in 1v1 FPS gun fights despite shooting first and finally after all these years I know the answer. Thank you :)
excellent video, i've been working on my movement ever since hitting diamond but now at ascendant i feel like i'm losing way too many duels, i need to work more on it, this video was a great reminder! off to dm...
SVS is the thing I’m missing wow, thank you so much bro, nah this is actually the thing that’s been holding me back so damn much I’m always quick on shooting straight away…
omg how can a single tip like this make me get double my kills sht ive been looking for this video just to come here to show some support you deffo got my like
EU rad here although even at rad aim isn't as good as you would expect its just simple tracking and micros and especially at the pro level this svs wouldn't work its usually who stops to shoot first wins the gunfight as tenz said with shrouds movement he doesn't strafe at all and thats the reason he wins so many gun fights
Just when I start slacking off from the vast majority of my wonderful tactics and fall back again into bad habits, your videos are always recommended to me 😅
best guide vid and something that helped me where i was struggling with and thats being ready, i sometimes just autopilot swing and i die, im def gonna keep in mind if im doing anything at all now, i feel like thats such a large factor for being a high ranked, always being ready to do everything with full focus, because im a gold 3 that has been terrorizing plats now (stuck at gold 3 cause im on plat mmr) and the difference i noticed was golds are way less ready than plats, and the more higher you get on ranks the more you notice how calm they are
Yeah, Valorant is a game with so many things to process. It's one of the most important skills to be able to focus on what's important and being mentally prepared whenever you get into a fighting situation
So useful video 😊 exactly solved my issue. I am diamond 1. My aim is good but am having too much focus and stress to get headshots. the problem i thought was my crosshair placement. But the actual issue was my movement then I came across this video two days before Now when I see the enemy I dont stop my movement I try to align the crosshair to the head and when the enemy stops I do tap tap to head. I tested in deathmatches and got first place in 5 matches consecutively and in the next 3 ranked. I am the mvp suddenly it feels like enemy team doesn’t know how to shoot 😄 it workss Thanks a lot boss you are the best
great video this concept was explained very well and you gave great examples of how you can use it in your game rather then just showing the technique being used on practice bots
The GUIDE, I want you to know I support and love your content brother. You always post great and valuable tips. I often recommend every friend your channel because you put the best fundamental concepts on UA-cam. I have recently been struggling with this problem and you have posted this video. I am grateful and thankful. Be strong you’ll become big in no time! Edit: I watched the whole video, you literally read my mind and covered every thing I struggle with rn I peaked diamond but I fell off to plat 2 because i forgot some fundamentals luckily I still have you to always rely on. Much love brother stay safe ❤❤❤❤
Now that you tell this, its true that on split, the spot where you just wait a defender to peek, i miss kill more often when they stick to the box. But i also die more often when they preshot
As you get closer to d3 and beyond, this stops being as true. Its definitely relevant for longer range gunfights, but the closer you are, the easier it is to flick since hitboxes are so much bigger, and past diamond the consistency of a flick starts hitting upwards of 55%+ for shorter range duels, aka sub 15m, and even higher from 10 and below, meaning the first person to get a shot off will usually win.
The best/most helpful movement video I have seen yet. Maybe a bit more advanced for once you have your crosshair placements and comfortable with your sensitivity down. But damn this is just what I needed to stop bouncing between d3 and a1 all season
I'm elaborating a theory miself, if you strafe right instead of left, you will have more chances to avoid bullets when strafing. The reason is simple, the rist and the elvow has problems moving outside the body, it's easier to move inside, so it gives you an extra chance that the enemy misses the first shot. If you don't believe me, go to training mode, and see how many times you miss targets from the left in comparisong to the right, most likely to the left side you will be able to do insane flicks. (assuming you are right handed, like 90% of the world)
I love this video. I have been playing for a while and i have never done any if this. Yesterday when i try this videos tips i went against a jett that obviously was way better than me and had been plsying this game longer and new how to counter straf. I went toe to toe a little bit. Soooo many times the bullets kissing my ear but once headshot she couldn't recovered. I was having rounds where i killed 4. We still lost 11 to 13 but damn my gunplay improved by a ton. Now it is all practice😊
May i know who is the person giving the guides in this video? I love his method of approach and how he explains technical things like these, it's really informative and easy to get a grasp on!

Doesn't work in deathmatch but in ranked it definitely works. Suddenly feels like the enemy team never trained their aim before
xD
++, so useful video, I like it
deathmatch lmao get real
Works in dm just to many players on the map.
You can practice it in DM, just not as useful as in game
Imagine you both keep strafing and don't stop, going till the end of the map while looking at the other player, waiting for him to stop first lol
i was just thinking abt dat LOL
😂😂
So the general Idea of Strafing is
1) peek-wait-peek
2) strafe if your crosshair isn't aligned
3) stop if your enemy stop first
4) varies your movement so it cannot be predicted
good stuff
yup, summed up well!
Still dont understand how to use it at all. Like, at higher ranks even if guys stoping first and you keep strafing, they have first shot advantage, so they just stops you with there first bullet or killing you in head
@@FonKard I think this is more like a guildline if you want to know how to use it properly I guess is don't be predictable?

This is exactly what n0thing explained on stream once… you have to force the enemy to commit to the gunfight, you can then just tap them.
Even though I'm immo 3 I learned quite a lot from this video. This was the first guide video since a long time that actually felt useful
Thank you, means a lot! :)
Carry me pls i am bronze 3 c
What rank r u now?
@@mone3iche855 If youre not ready to put in the effort yourself dont ask for help
@@mone3iche855how can u be bronze 3 bro this game ain't hard
You guys will blow up soon - it’s starting to hit on the algorithm. I find your videos to be educational, accessible, and easy to understand. You heard it here first
Thanks dude! Yeah, channel is getting some traction now, nice to see :D
4:06 I really like how you take time to replicate the scenario in custom match in the absence of replay system
Your videos are a hit for me, solved exactly what I've been struggling with
That's what we like to hear! :D
no heart..
Are u a bot?
same... it explains a lot of my death´s
What's ur rank bro ? 😅
Your enemy watch the same video🗿
I watched this video and went on a 7 game win streak that brought me into immortal. I’m telling you right now this shit works
this is so underrated, explains advanced concepts clearly and concisely. you deserve so much more bro gl on the yt journey
Thank you bro!
this actually places a very interesting perspective on gun fights within valorant, very interesting and makes a lot of sense. great video!
Quick reccomendation, when peaking angles, dont get tense and overthink. You might end up deathgripping your mouse and giving yourself inconsistent aim. Another tip, reset your aim after every angle you swing
Good advice!
i havent played valorant properly for many episodes, so im glad that this video popped up for me again ! all these tips are so helpful especially the svs dynamic, i realised i get killed to many players doing that and i usually lose. thank you so much for this video very helpful :)
Best valorant video I have seen yet! All the others just say "Play deathmatch and practice a ton." This is actual concrete advice- thanks!
wanna be good play ton and play dm to practice map angles and learn from ur mistake no one on these vedios will help u u need to help ur self and at the end of the day you play vs 10+ hour player per day sweater no life ppl you wont do nun with 30 min and range

this is literally the only educational valorant video ive seen thats not complete bs

You deserve WAY more subs bro, the quality of content and the easy to follow instructions are incredibly good. wish you good luck.

im finaly at a place where im wiling to improve and this video feels like the one i have been searching for in like forever
Bro wtf, I've watched so many vids and tutorials and never have I ever seen this SvS tip.... IT HELPED SO MUCH!!!!!!!
This is gold. I'm often first to shoot, and first to die, and yet always thought I was doing the right thing trying to be fast.
this is all ive been looking for!!!! all those other UA-camrs recommend aim training when its not your aim but your movement and lack of ingame mechanics knowledge.
two enemies stuck strafing each other, waiting for the other to stop moving to get the advantage 💀
I've always wondered why I always get killed first in 1v1 FPS gun fights despite shooting first and finally after all these years I know the answer. Thank you :)
I figured the so called SVS Dynamic out myself before I watches this video
Thank you for making a high-quality video. Even though I am not good at English, I think I am learning a lot thanks to the high level of completion
Really loved the svs concept. I will try in my gameplay now
excellent video, i've been working on my movement ever since hitting diamond but now at ascendant i feel like i'm losing way too many duels, i need to work more on it, this video was a great reminder! off to dm...
Keep going, good progress already!
SVS is the thing I’m missing wow, thank you so much bro, nah this is actually the thing that’s been holding me back so damn much I’m always quick on shooting straight away…
Helped me went from hardstuck gold to diamond, def the only video that doesnt ramble abt the same stuff like other guides
Appreciate it!
Legit thought this was a big YT channel with 500k subs or something. Thanks for the tips. Keep going dude, best of luck!
thanks my guy, ive been experiencing horror from enemy on valorant. I'll start to learning your svs and strafing soon !!
yo great tips man! i will be using these in my next valorant ranked matches!
For the first tip play the defuse or plane scenario on hard until you can consistently win it. It teaches you check every single angle
omg how can a single tip like this make me get double my kills sht ive been looking for this video just to come here to show some support you deffo got my like
Just started playing valorant this week. I knew smthin was off with my movement and aim ! Thanks for this video , rlly helped a lot❤
Now you have reached me how to play a better duelist thank u so much
bro ur channel is so underrated man you got eally good informational vids that are really are amazing with good edit
EU rad here although even at rad aim isn't as good as you would expect its just simple tracking and micros and especially at the pro level this svs wouldn't work its usually who stops to shoot first wins the gunfight as tenz said with shrouds movement he doesn't strafe at all and thats the reason he wins so many gun fights

Amazing video! Thanks man!
The video I needed to confirm my theory
wow this has to be the best video on valorant ever . perfect explanation thank you
This is a gold mine!! Can't believe you are still at 6k subscribers! Keep the good work!
your voice is everything
this is a very good point .... i needed it
You change my gameplay completely. Thank you!
Your videos are so smooth.
Those are very good tips. Thanks dude
You're welcome! ;)
I’ve never seen that second point made to me before in that way. I’m going. To try it. Thanks dude
Oo, A video that actually explains positioning, finally
This earned a sub, fantastic content man.
Broooooo.. Now this is what I've been looking for... Amazing video ❤ Subscribed 💯
This is exactly what I needed ❤️
Now that you tell this, its true that on split, the spot where you just wait a defender to peek, i miss kill more often when they stick to the box. But i also die more often when they preshot
i think its the first for the long time guide ill see which talking about really good things to improve, nice
That's what we're trying to do, glad you enjoy the content!
This tips are great dude! Thanks! ✌️👽

Finally, valorant guides that actually mean something
Everytime i do this i just get headshot in the middle of my strafe
Same
This genuinely looks like it will work. Will give it a go!
The best/most helpful movement video I have seen yet. Maybe a bit more advanced for once you have your crosshair placements and comfortable with your sensitivity down. But damn this is just what I needed to stop bouncing between d3 and a1 all season
Very good insight. Thank you.
these are quality tips, thank you
Glad you like them!
Very well made video brother.
Nice video, actually helped me improve a lot
Bless u bro! Your tips is so crazy 🤯
It’s amazing !! Thank you 🎉❤
Move mouse is giant circle and then flick to target. It's like boxing, rolling to avoid head hits, and then hit back.
Thank you so much bro🎉 subbed

deathmatches are just for warmup and getting the feel of fast flicks. Moving around the map is more important once you have a good aim

That was a great video. I'm very new to online shooters, so I'll be sure to try it out.
great video And actually very helpful
My enemy watched your video, now we both are waiting for each other to stop first 😂
first val guide ive actually learned something from
This was so much useful than those 13 mins tutorials !! 💀
Great video, very informative! Thanks for making i
thank you explained
it so well
I did this.. but grumpy smack the shit out of me😢
Any tip?
3:10 you just explained how we used to kniferun in CoD back in the days... and i mean these people with like ~50kills per round kniferunning. xD
Actually amazing guide m8🌾
