    Ik this video is older and no one might see this comment but i as of 2 days ago no longer play console and I used to get top rank in every competitive game I played in r6 by itself when it originally came out I used to play what I considered semi pro because In the beginning they had pro league for console and I was invited to play in a team but at the time I was younger and wasn’t able to join them I would end up watching that team play and I felt sadness but also hope for the future I then played overwatch where it took a bit for me to get used to a slightly different environment but then after some time I achieved top 500 for many seasons and was the rank 1 Ana controller player on console for 3 seasons I say controller because at the time everyone ranked higher than me were confirmed xim players anyways now that I’m on pc I’m hoping that with an actual pro scene available I can go from zero to hero playing valorant ik it’s a long shot considering I was just a controller player but my game sense is high enough that I can work on everything else as I play I don’t know how to stream on pc but I’ll probably figure it out and start streaming valorant and call it zero to hero or something like that ik it’s a long shot considering my years of inexperience with pc and the game over other players but it’s a dream I’m gonna achieve their is no backup plan I hope I succeed I do wanna add that I’ve been given a few months to get used to pc then I’ll be doing this on the side with a job but hopefully it’ll only take a few months to get to a decent spot of understanding of this game then it’s only up

I've got alot of experience in cs so that probably helped but the best advice I can give is to practice a little every day to make sure your mechanics are good, don't tilt or be toxic even if your team are toxic and after every game you play try to name 2 things you could of done better and if you lose and you play bad don't rage q just relax before going next

      Which agent do you suggest to play..?
      I play Omen/Brim for smokes or kayo/breach as inititator.
      I just fill usually, just so that my team will feel confident, , even if there's 4 duelists on my team
      I entry for team, even as smokes, but if i just get baited , i feel useless, And if i play passive, i can't expect anything from my team, even when setting up the site execution for them. I even buy them rifles even when i have 3500 credits, just so that maybe they can do something, and workaround with ghost/stinger.
      Idk what to play though.. but i just want to reduce teammate impact factors, including throwers, and have some solo impact more on winrate.
      I can't instalock, due to game lag, so mostly i can't play reyna/jett.,, and even if i pick jett, i need to practice the agent a lot, to master movement.
      I can continue omen on maps like haven/ascent/split, due to easy mobility, but other maps, its just luck factor mostly

      You can get over it if you really want.
      Because I just saw your comment and want to inspire you a bit from my own small story, is that I also want to become Pro in Val.
      Before it was different games. I can not play currently at home due of conflicts with my esport goals. I study in university and we have a gaming room where students can play there for free. I am a full time student and looking for a part time job to move out so I can play again without living with my parents.
      I planned my classes schedule such a way that I have one morning class at 8am, and other classes are asynchronous online, so I don’t need to be present anywhere besides my first class. After that class I play my all day till 10pm 3 days a week at university gaming pc’s so I can be keep improving. And doing my homeworks at other days when I stay at home. Now it’s 6:15am, and I barely had a sleep. It’s bad not having a good sleep, as diet and sleep and workouts helps you with your lifestyle and game potential, but just that night I was watching Valorant vods and vids instead of sleeping. Today is my classes day, so in 15 minutes I will have to wake up and starting getting ready for a study.
      I also came to US 4 years ago. Back then in Ukraine where I am from, I had to wake up sometimes around 5am to work on my aim and mechanics in Csgo.
      There is no shame if one day you decide to do something else and pursuit it instead, but deeply inside I know no matter how much rich I can get with some soon programming job, and getting all life wins, getting girls, good body (even if I did some sport and actually have a body), and still I know I wouldn’t become happy with only those goals above.
      That is why if you deeply want it keep going and keep trying. Keep crying and failing but never quit it. Everyone’s path is a bit different, so adapt that knowledge for your own life and find ways. Keep maturing and getting life experience, and implement it and your stronger mindset, stronger you into a game. And vice versa learn about yourself by playing and reflecting on your weaknesses and strengths.
      Do what you love and I wish you all the best and good luck 👍.
