Well I have the exact opposite problem lmao I constantly reload on like 20 bullets and whenever I go into the red I always just auto reload no matter the situation
happened to me yesterday, i queued into 2 duo's who both no commed all game, i lost a 1v1 after killing 2 earlier that round and he asked why i played like that and i fucking SCREAMED at him holy shit i was so pissed (im taking a 1 week break from val)
Had a chamber whose comms were "all four of you should quit" and "so bad." Even before the match started, he insta locked chamber and decided to not dodge screaming and singing "We lose, pearl is the map." I shit you not, Chamber's "Enemies, B" types of voicelines were more helpful than him opening his voice chat. One dude even made a party and invited all of us except the chamber because he was brain dead.
These are the same types of people who will go to Reddit and complain about people not taking their advice too. Fact is a large portion of people have NO IDEA how to give advice or critique.
You know you've been watching to much Woohoojin when you're trying to get to sleep and you're hearing him tell you the best position to sleep in to get the most kills...
Thank you so much for being an actual legitimate, harsh, coach. I've learned so much and understood from only you that it takes so much effort to improve, not just simple "game breaking" tips. I went from bronze 1 to silver 2 in only three weeks because of your helpful and insightful content. Your routine for gold is exceptional, and I can't wait to see you grow even more.
One of my worst online experiences ever was in this game. A couple games straight I got no responses for my comms. Then on my third game, I tried to pre-round comm the entire time, and the first comm I got back was "Yo nobody is responding to you shut up bro". This was like round 9 or 10. I'm already not very sociable, and I was actually trying to keep energy up by complimenting players, trying to call shots, and giving call outs. Sometimes the people in this game are absolutely impossible.
I’ve had games like this too, and I have a hard time being “brave” enough to comm sometimes because teammates can be pretty toxic. But don’t let it discourage you please. I’m trying to get into comp and a friendly teammate like you I would value so much more over the ones who only come during the last rounds to be toxic
shit happens man it's honestly shit trying to IGL for some people as a woman I'll try to comm for my team topfrag and basically solo win the game but if I fail I'll still be told to "go to the kitchen" when it's people way worse than me it's just self-absorbed men.... I feel you just do your thing

Yeah but most of the time it's just executed annoyingly, though if u do feel like he might have forgotten his util u could say it once and then shut up afterwards. I think its the best balance.
I mean, sure, it's personal preference and it works for you, but have you tried looking at your util before making the clutch so you'll know which utils you have beforehand? That can work, too. Iirc some people lose their focus when people are trying to backseat/comm anything. I know I do because sometimes I get distracted especially if their mic is so low qual I have to lose my focus on the game to comprehend what they said lmaooo
I had a game last night with no comms and once I started actively comming and making strats they started comming back. Lots of ppl are just nervous/scared/young/anxious but once the ice is broken, they know u aren't weird, and talking becomes normalized, then its not a big deal. But man do these games kinda lowkey suck when u gotta put in so much social effort just to get comms back LOL
only things i’ll call out is if they have ult/will have ult after plant, the number of bullets left if they are low, and the cool down on abilities that are about to recharge. They may be making terrible decisions, but you backseating them is just going to make them question themselves and i would rather they make a bad decision with confidence than have them play a clutch hesitantly
I didn't think was gonna be a vod review I really thought we reached the point where we needed a 50 min video telling people to shut up 😂. I was like damn woohoojin had a bad teammate in ranked finally snapped 😂
if your teammate doesn't use util, they probably don't know how to use util and didn't get to the rank they are by using util, so making them think about util mid clutch probably decreases your odds of winning the round
This is the only time I’ve ever disagreed with you, KJ can’t cover where Omen was exposed to but they absolutely could’ve covered where sage was, when omen died she was looking at the wall and when she peeked sage was a good 5 meters out of cover on the mini map 23:05

24:27 Can you give examples of preround plans here? Isn't pick/retake the default option when playing solo on ascent A? With smokes and blind omen should get a pick 70% of the time. What other kind of plan can you cook when sova is hoding tree? /g This playstyle is pretty close to my own on Ascent.
His point is any plan is better than no plan, for example I personally would play dice and tell my Sova to be ready to recon the wall so that when they come out and I blind them, we get a higher chance of holding down the site (or at least work some picks). Didn't really see how he played that round, but judging from the smoke, he was holding A main, where Sova is in no position to help him, and if he dies first as a smoke, it is virtually impossible for Sova to hold the site down alone. Compared that rough plan of mine earlier to the plan-less round that played-out, the convergent rate should always be higher for plan (if they did hit A). And out of curiosity, what rank are you?
You're thinking too restricted, the plan doesn't exactly have to involve you and where you are. For example, it this round you can say "Yo sova I'm gonna smoke top mid, can you and harbour wait for my smoke and fight tiles? I'll watch A main"
Yo this video got me dying with the incessant roasting esp from like 8:00 to 12:00, poor dunkchai lmao and woohoojin is sooo funny when he's disappointed hahahaa
Just in general no matter what rank it may be , its not the best idea to just simply tell your teammate how to play/handle a situation ESPECIALLY in clutches. It ruins their own momentum and experience , just let them suck so that they can be better at it next time or whenever , especially when your teammate makes a mistake.. yelling at them and point out that they suck isn't gonna help anyone and not even you. You can't expect them to see what you see.. If you really want to point out their mistake , pick your words wisely , like a friendly tip or something and encourage them to try better. When one person is positive , so will everyone else regardless if you lose or not.
Tip is always useful. Truth is if you're with pros or your boys (premade), a comm for what you have or where they could be is extremely useful in clutch. Most people who complain about getting "advice" are either having people yell at them (which occurs 20% of the time) or players misplaying and blaming "loss of focus" due to three words. If I tell someone "he's playing offsite" or "he's not backsite" and they get mad because I'm distracting their clutch, they just have extremely poor presence of mind. Any player worth their rank would appreciate useful callouts especially when you're tunnelvisioned with the clock on your ass
Im a raze main, who wasnt soing particularly good one day, and my teammate went "just hit alt+f4 you cant do shit" in a 1v3 clutch It pissed me off so bad that it actually motivated me to top frag, which i did 😭😭😭😭
his coms are definetly subpar and he needs to consciously work on that, before taking that route of improving that i totally understand sometimes autopilot staying quiet when absolutely noone is talking in the game, personally, i always try to com whenever i find it valuable, but even in diamond 3, i will not lie there have been games where ive said next to nothing because noone else did, but that's something i've recognized myself recently and have been trying to work on, props to him, definitely still a valuable upload to everyone
i have 1 guy that i play with regularly, who does this too much but ~66% of the time it's a great callout/tip, so i ignore the other 33%. anyone else that tries to talk to me during these moments gets told to shut up or instantly muted.
32:07 I'm practicing making plans. Omen, Reyna, Sova to hold A. Omen with a phantom in wine, playing contact off Reyna. Omen in wine allows for a really good blind, and the idea behind the phantom is he''ll be less likely to get shot from enemies shooting at where bullets are coming from cuz they won't be able to see the tracers(While they are blinded or Reyna eye is out). Sova can either play heaven or tree based on recon (Tree would probably be best). Idk if this is a good plan at all.
Hey! Not sure if this is late or if you still play the game but I would still like to comment. There is nothing wrong with the plan itself, but it is somewhat shortsighted. You have a good setup for A itself but with a sova, reyna and omen on a you have a killjoy on B and a rather weak midhold with cat smoked. For one round this is a very good plan, but not a good plan to set up with every round, especially with how strong Sova is on B. Maybe you can do something in the midround with this plan. Hope this helped and good luck!
45:06 Okay I understand the point you're trying to make, but in Gym and Exercise it is INSANELY important to give your body COOLDOWN TIME. Shredding yourself to pieces everyday =/= gains. Shredding yourself to pieces, three days rest, some cardio, two days rest, repeat, is definitely a lot better.
I was playing a comp game “I’m gold 3” and there was no coms the whole game even thought they all talked first round. I saw 2 on flank and I knew one was dead for sure but I asked if there both dead no response so I just hoped and died.
Honestly, when i'm the last man alive and I need to clutch for some god forsaken reason and I'm waaaaay far to the other site. I give them permission to comm me their last known location, their health etc. After that, they need to shut up while I'm trying to clutch or else my pressured mind is going to malfunction like a broken record and won't clutch at all with the pressure.
I'm a lower rank player, and the chat is always quiet like shit. No one respond to my callouts most of the time except when I'm the only person alive, then the other 4 suddenly have ideas as to how I should play and what util to use.
42:34 you didn’t call him out when he said “close right” towards Reyna and Reyna would have had to look left to see him, not right. that’d kill me in a match so easily (he didn’t take into account reyna’s position, which I would cause I nitpick about that stuff) though, i rewatched it and it kinda sounds like “closer?” “Close”? Which is even more arbitrary if Reyna hadn’t had gunshots to his left
am i the only one who appreciates, the callouts of my teammates? if i was that omen in the first clip its not like he was yelling at him, but im bad and gold 2 so what do ik lol
Wait I do wanna know what I should be doing if I'm playing at over 100 ping in that gen off angle hold scenario. Because I do hold off angles playing at higher ping because I remember hooj say how when you're peeking right, ping also comes into play when determining who's winning a peek battle
Yeah, the idea of shutting up in clutches is completely dependent on rank. I'm only just starting in valorant so I'm diamond, but I was global elite for 4-5 years in CS. making comms in clutches in the highest rank is completely unnecessary because typically the decision making is already good. But in any comp game, with lower than the highest levels (so in diamonds and below) the DM is usually panicked or just outright wrong. Making calm calls to teammates then, in my opinion is completely fine. The only time I would say not to do it is when the person clutching is clearly on a heater of a game, then it's best to stay quite. Especially if your having a bad game.
what if the enemy is guaranteed far away and you want to give them an idea of how to play the clutch since u feel like your idea of how to play it is almost flawless/rlly good conversion? or is that a nono too? just cuz i feel like sometimes people panic with their decision making in clutch scenarios, or maybe im just low elo :( edit: (specifically for when theyre attacker and they hv bomb down since defender retake is harder to come up with an "absolute plan")
25:58 this part is so true lmao as someone who ranked up from iron 1 to diamond 2 I didnt see any difference almost. When my mmr was high enough to only get high dias and ascendants in my game I got actually comming useful teammates but that shouldnt be the case. if youre only gonna talk when youre top like 5 percent just dont play.
i run deathmatch quite a lot, however, i'm hardstuck S3. my deathmatches are filled with immortals, ascendants, and diamonds. i can hold my own, but it's hard to work on stuff like movement, and all that when i get sat down the second i see anyone
no sorry i 100% disagree with the "you play omen then", the amount of times i appreciate people calling out what i have so i dont need to look, when someones says "you have flash" in my head it goes "ah i should use it" this isnt from a bronze player, this is from immo 2, i call it out because they need to know what they have. Sorry wooj, but i think ur wrong
I hate when ppl call out low ammo, like I KNOW, I SHOT THOSE BULLETS. Maybe I don't want to give away my pos with a reload sound. In general, if someone has to listen to bad comms in a clutch, they are X amount less focused on their aim placement and gun fight preparedness depending on how dumb the comm was.
Imo if you comm out that hey you have __ ability is ok if they dont notice it but, you sould never only comm it out in a 1v1 and your its first comm of game. Also when they probably know and wont need to use it. Because sometimes your teamates dont notice and it could help them win rounds but it can also mess you up.
Someone did that to me on Fracture on A Main today. I was Skye they were on site (just two) and they was like you have dog. Dog out and im like no their right there i wont get both and one of them could swing while my dogs out.
you think its bad I you call out a util that just recharged? ex: sova used dart and just got it back I usually just say "recon is back" or something short
Instead of screaming at them, maybe tell them to adjust their colour highlights of enemies. Everyone's eyes detect colours differently and maybe his settings aren't doing it for him.
1:58 this is true in LoL, if your team made a bad call or a bad engagement, why follow that? do what you can control and if you know you cant control your team then fuck it
on 8:10 when you comm what you hear it's clear to me that I can't hear both them taking orb nor the stim, but I hear the footsteps. Can someone here in the comments help me figure out if it's youtube video stuff or just my ears 😅
Imo, I cannot stand people comming anything I have on my hud in a clutch. I have so many games on fade, trust me I'm playing around my eye coming back up. I know I only have 5 bullets, just be quiet and let me gamble the one tap. Its ridiculous
Having that tingling feeling that someone is sneaking up behind you -> Intuition/Game sense How you Peak them with knowing the weapons they/you have -> decision making For me atleast, Intuition is getting the feeling of what will happen next/what would happen, and decision making is WHAT you do with that Information. They are not necessarily binded to each other, as you can get information in other forms aswell (voicecomms, minimap, someone peaking the angle you hold)
@@Jamano244 ahhh i see makes sense, if i improved on my decision making i could probably fly through diamond xd. It sounds exactly like when i magically pop off for no reason, i think its brcause my decision making is simply better for a reason or another so i top frag. idk. thanks for the explanation
the reyna was comming that he had smoke but hit push to talk too late. Still doesnt excuse only comming in a 1v3 clutch but thought i would point that out.
I had a teammate scream at me during my clutch that I was going to lose and that I should off myself; so... uh... yeah, I would rather have someone tell me that I have flash.
BRO'S PING IS AT 12 💀💀. The server room is just his neighbor. I wish my wifi would do that, instead of giving me 13k or 100% packet loss once in a while
100% call out when they are low ammo and have a moment and don't notice themselves
I only need 1.
Yes, forgot to mention this ty!
One of my friends does this for me all the time since I have a bad habit of forgetting when Im low on ammo
Yes! Honestly, watching JARSO has helped me realise what comms to make or not make when someone's in a clutch situation.
Well I have the exact opposite problem lmao I constantly reload on like 20 bullets and whenever I go into the red I always just auto reload no matter the situation
If a reyna doesn’t comm all game and then in a clutch proceeds to comm ‘ungh’ i think that’ll be enough to break the addiction i have to this game

Im a raze main, who wasnt soing particularly good one day, and my teammate went "just hit alt+f4 you cant do shit" in a 1v3 clutch
It pissed me off so bad that it actually motivated me to top frag, which i did 😭😭😭😭
And everyone clapped
his coms are definetly subpar and he needs to consciously work on that, before taking that route of improving that i totally understand sometimes autopilot staying quiet when absolutely noone is talking in the game, personally, i always try to com whenever i find it valuable, but even in diamond 3, i will not lie there have been games where ive said next to nothing because noone else did, but that's something i've recognized myself recently and have been trying to work on, props to him, definitely still a valuable upload to everyone
"Where do you get pre-round plans?"
"THINK MARK THINK!"
plat is an unreal place
and then realiz it doesn't help. so true😂😂😂
Hooj, I think you should make it so you can submit a vod if your gold, OR you can hit the benchmarks.
If you hit the gold benchmarks, play 2 games a day consistently and still can't hit gold, you can get a free coaching session per his guarantee.
i have 1 guy that i play with regularly, who does this too much but ~66% of the time it's a great callout/tip, so i ignore the other 33%. anyone else that tries to talk to me during these moments gets told to shut up or instantly muted.
the intros are getting better every day gawd zamn
Love tha video as always. Also I prefer longer format videos usually, but the short form was a good test
19:21 damn.. so many good things to do there. Perfect blind angle, one way on top of jen, maybe tp on top jen
32:07 I'm practicing making plans. Omen, Reyna, Sova to hold A. Omen with a phantom in wine, playing contact off Reyna. Omen in wine allows for a really good blind, and the idea behind the phantom is he''ll be less likely to get shot from enemies shooting at where bullets are coming from cuz they won't be able to see the tracers(While they are blinded or Reyna eye is out). Sova can either play heaven or tree based on recon (Tree would probably be best). Idk if this is a good plan at all.
Hey! Not sure if this is late or if you still play the game but I would still like to comment. There is nothing wrong with the plan itself, but it is somewhat shortsighted. You have a good setup for A itself but with a sova, reyna and omen on a you have a killjoy on B and a rather weak midhold with cat smoked. For one round this is a very good plan, but not a good plan to set up with every round, especially with how strong Sova is on B. Maybe you can do something in the midround with this plan. Hope this helped and good luck!
45:06 Okay I understand the point you're trying to make, but in Gym and Exercise it is INSANELY important to give your body COOLDOWN TIME. Shredding yourself to pieces everyday =/= gains. Shredding yourself to pieces, three days rest, some cardio, two days rest, repeat, is definitely a lot better.
One person doing something stupid is throwing, two people doing something stupid is strategy
I call quickly if someone has it, I've seen too many people disregard util in clutches. but def not telling them what to do
I was playing a comp game “I’m gold 3” and there was no coms the whole game even thought they all talked first round. I saw 2 on flank and I knew one was dead for sure but I asked if there both dead no response so I just hoped and died.
wouldnt also breaking the glass be the reason their teammate died ? enemy team heard the glass break so they pointed attention to it potential bait ?
"No one else on the team said ANYTHING lol"
and that's why you're gold lol
Honestly, when i'm the last man alive and I need to clutch for some god forsaken reason and I'm waaaaay far to the other site. I give them permission to comm me their last known location, their health etc. After that, they need to shut up while I'm trying to clutch or else my pressured mind is going to malfunction like a broken record and won't clutch at all with the pressure.
I've legit unswung in a clutch to mute people like the Reyna. Need to set up that hot key
Cringe
Sometimes I just play his videos in the background and not listen. His voice is soothing especially when he gets mad
THIS VIDEO WAS BANANAS!!!!
i'm waiting for the day where Hooj takes the World 2 pipe
The valorant accent was atrong when he said let me clutch 😂
You know what they say "if i use an ability i have to buy it again"
If my thought process gets broken while i am in a clutch i just cant win it
0:26 all hail clutch mute in situations like those
I'm a lower rank player, and the chat is always quiet like shit. No one respond to my callouts most of the time except when I'm the only person alive, then the other 4 suddenly have ideas as to how I should play and what util to use.
42:34 you didn’t call him out when he said “close right” towards Reyna and Reyna would have had to look left to see him, not right. that’d kill me in a match so easily (he didn’t take into account reyna’s position, which I would cause I nitpick about that stuff) though, i rewatched it and it kinda sounds like “closer?” “Close”? Which is even more arbitrary if Reyna hadn’t had gunshots to his left
am i the only one who appreciates, the callouts of my teammates? if i was that omen in the first clip its not like he was yelling at him, but im bad and gold 2 so what do ik lol
I hope he was trolling in that first minute. If that omen would have died he would have probably pointed out the paranoia..
I reached plat bc of you mr banana!!!!
you know its bad when i pause the video and expect woohj to start talking
Wait I do wanna know what I should be doing if I'm playing at over 100 ping in that gen off angle hold scenario. Because I do hold off angles playing at higher ping because I remember hooj say how when you're peeking right, ping also comes into play when determining who's winning a peek battle
Yeah, the idea of shutting up in clutches is completely dependent on rank. I'm only just starting in valorant so I'm diamond, but I was global elite for 4-5 years in CS. making comms in clutches in the highest rank is completely unnecessary because typically the decision making is already good. But in any comp game, with lower than the highest levels (so in diamonds and below) the DM is usually panicked or just outright wrong. Making calm calls to teammates then, in my opinion is completely fine. The only time I would say not to do it is when the person clutching is clearly on a heater of a game, then it's best to stay quite. Especially if your having a bad game.
what if the enemy is guaranteed far away and you want to give them an idea of how to play the clutch since u feel like your idea of how to play it is almost flawless/rlly good conversion? or is that a nono too? just cuz i feel like sometimes people panic with their decision making in clutch scenarios, or maybe im just low elo :(
edit:
(specifically for when theyre attacker and they hv bomb down since defender retake is harder to come up with an "absolute plan")
25:58 this part is so true lmao as someone who ranked up from iron 1 to diamond 2 I didnt see any difference almost. When my mmr was high enough to only get high dias and ascendants in my game I got actually comming useful teammates but that shouldnt be the case. if youre only gonna talk when youre top like 5 percent just dont play.
i run deathmatch quite a lot, however, i'm hardstuck S3. my deathmatches are filled with immortals, ascendants, and diamonds. i can hold my own, but it's hard to work on stuff like movement, and all that when i get sat down the second i see anyone
pre round comms !
top box bp a : pick switch and tp out (still heaven)
record your games
no sorry i 100% disagree with the "you play omen then", the amount of times i appreciate people calling out what i have so i dont need to look, when someones says "you have flash" in my head it goes "ah i should use it" this isnt from a bronze player, this is from immo 2, i call it out because they need to know what they have. Sorry wooj, but i think ur wrong
I hate when ppl call out low ammo, like I KNOW, I SHOT THOSE BULLETS. Maybe I don't want to give away my pos with a reload sound. In general, if someone has to listen to bad comms in a clutch, they are X amount less focused on their aim placement and gun fight preparedness depending on how dumb the comm was.
Imo if you comm out that hey you have __ ability is ok if they dont notice it but, you sould never only comm it out in a 1v1 and your its first comm of game. Also when they probably know and wont need to use it. Because sometimes your teamates dont notice and it could help them win rounds but it can also mess you up.
Someone did that to me on Fracture on A Main today. I was Skye they were on site (just two) and they was like you have dog. Dog out and im like no their right there i wont get both and one of them could swing while my dogs out.
wooj I'm trying to use commonsense here.... An hour of grid shot?
I’ve had people scream at me like a 5 year old in unranked trying to tell me how to play a clutch. It’s honestly sad
you think its bad I you call out a util that just recharged? ex: sova used dart and just got it back
I usually just say "recon is back" or something short
Yo woohoojin, u got mentioned in the riot vandal vs phantom post!
What if my teammate completely doesn't see an enemy right in front of them is it okay to scream at the top of my lungs.
I personally do not think so no
Instead of screaming at them, maybe tell them to adjust their colour highlights of enemies. Everyone's eyes detect colours differently and maybe his settings aren't doing it for him.
1:58 this is true in LoL, if your team made a bad call or a bad engagement, why follow that? do what you can control and if you know you cant control your team then fuck it
Only time you should micro manage is when strat calling on attack lol
9/10 times you have to be a little aggressive w calls in order to get ppl to listen
on 8:10 when you comm what you hear it's clear to me that I can't hear both them taking orb nor the stim, but I hear the footsteps.
Can someone here in the comments help me figure out if it's youtube video stuff or just my ears 😅
just watched a vid of a yoru getting thrashed for ditching his raze and cypher and his enemy was dunkchai breach, funny to randomly see the name again
Day 94 of thanking and appreciating Woohoojin for his educational and informative valorant content.
Imo, I cannot stand people comming anything I have on my hud in a clutch. I have so many games on fade, trust me I'm playing around my eye coming back up. I know I only have 5 bullets, just be quiet and let me gamble the one tap. Its ridiculous
What's the difference between decision making and intuition?
Like if you have one dont you necessarily have the other?
Having that tingling feeling that someone is sneaking up behind you -> Intuition/Game sense
How you Peak them with knowing the weapons they/you have -> decision making
For me atleast, Intuition is getting the feeling of what will happen next/what would happen,
and decision making is WHAT you do with that Information.
They are not necessarily binded to each other, as you can get information in other forms aswell (voicecomms, minimap, someone peaking the angle you hold)
@@Jamano244 ahhh i see makes sense, if i improved on my decision making i could probably fly through diamond xd. It sounds exactly like when i magically pop off for no reason, i think its brcause my decision making is simply better for a reason or another so i top frag. idk.
thanks for the explanation
W upload
I’m very confused. I’m not supposed to go “you have a flash/certain util”?????? That’s a bad comm wtf?
Thank God for this video
No dont take the world 2 pipe it will ruin the speedrun
back again, forgot to mention Big K, the intro makes me laugh everytime. especially the beginning.
the reyna was comming that he had smoke but hit push to talk too late. Still doesnt excuse only comming in a 1v3 clutch but thought i would point that out.
I had a teammate scream at me during my clutch that I was going to lose and that I should off myself; so... uh... yeah, I would rather have someone tell me that I have flash.
Hello why is it better to aim head height for back wall than close wall ?
close quarters head level doesn't really matter, just run and gun -my view as a gold
Its easier to flick down than it is to flick up
@@Jamano244 okok ty =)
I really miss woohoojn, it's like there is an unfilled hole or void in valorant content creation entirely
th-the.. the.. e.. the eco.. the eco strat?
didnt hooj post this twice
Common Woohoojin W
BRO'S PING IS AT 12 💀💀. The server room is just his neighbor. I wish my wifi would do that, instead of giving me 13k or 100% packet loss once in a while
Today I spoke too much like that guy I muted myself for like 5 rounds, Because I couldn't shut up. 😅
Oh shit hes gonna take the world 2 pipe
NO COMMS IN CLUTCH. LET THEM COOK
yo woohoojin what about tdm instead of dm
Bad. You are practicing on a useless maps.
u sure like it is still aim train and in dms I just always get third partied from behind and can't even shoot people
@@lukaverc6233 if you're just focusing on gun fights it's fine
@@aaderall ya I just play like Reyna so I can heal to fight more
