Quick Tips
Crosshair placement is everything — always keep your crosshair at head level where enemies will peek. This reduces the distance you need to flick by 80%.
Don't move while shooting — Valorant has severe movement inaccuracy. Counter-strafe (tap opposite direction) before shooting for first-bullet accuracy.
Play 2-3 agents max — mastering a small pool is better than being mediocre on many. Pick one controller, one duelist, and one sentinel to cover all needs.
Communicate utility usage — call out when you flash, smoke, or use recon. Your team can capitalize on utility if they know it's coming.
Save on pistol loss round — if you lose pistol, save round 2 for a full buy on round 3. Forcing Spectres into Vandals/Phantoms is a losing strategy.
