Short disclaimer that I'm not a pro yet at Valorant, there's definitely still things I can do to improve my routine. But for those wanting to mimic the training I did, here's what I did every day (after experimenting the first couple days and getting coached): -2 hours of Aimlabs -Between 30 minutes to 2 hours of Practice Range -2x Deathmatch with Sheriff, 2x with Guardian, couple more runs with random guns (like Phantom, Ghost, Marshal and Spectre) -Multiple Ranked games, when I had a bad game I jumped back into Deathmatch and rewatched the footage to find flaws -If I had time left, I went through every Aimlabs exercise 1 more time I know this is a really intense routine most people probably don't have time for while I could fully devote myself to it, but still hope it's useful to people looking to improve! My Aimlabs Playlist (can definitely still be optimized): Headhshot (Precision) / Spidershot (Speed) / Spidershot (Precision) / Motionshot (Speed) / Motionshot (Precision) / Microshot (Precision) / Gridshot (Ultimate) / Decisionshot (Ultimate) / FSA Reflexshot (Precision) / VCT NA - YAY / VCT EMEA - Scream / Gridshot 3x3 / VCT NA - TenZ / Icebox Wide Flick / VCT Leer Shot / Voltaic Intermediate Benchmarks S2

Great video and great content! It is amazing how good your aim has improved over in a period of 1 week and congrats on exceeding your goal in rank. I can see you reaching way higher ranks in no time as you have the correct mindset to do it from the start. You didn't do much mistakes apart of the ones you mentioned on your video although I think one huge part that will help you rank up is a good communication with your team (even on solo queue). There is so much that you can adapt to if both you and your team pass the right information + map pings that denies the enemy team from catching your off-guard. In terms of peeking an angle I would suggest you to incorporate in your games the mindset of what people call slicing the pie (clearing common angles slowly to isolate fights to 1v1 and deny trades from the enemy team). I have to admit that I am on the other end of your gameplay, I feel my game sense is decent enough although my aim is lacking and your video is an inspiration to improve on both ends. Keep the with the great content.

Been playing FPS games since 1999, some competitively. I think the thing that takes FPS beginners' aim to the next level is understanding that aiming is done nearly as much with your left hand as your right. Understanding the relationship between movement and aim is the key to getting better. IMO.

And this is the key to becoming the best of the best. Most players today believe that aiming is done solely by the mouse. Over time, they come across players who can perfectly dodge their shots, while shooting them down precisely Understanding the sync between keyboard and mouse might take time. But when they do, it will feel like winning a lottery.

This video was rly nice to watch! I hope its not the end of your journey in Valorant! I rly liked the editing style with the music and then showing some good shots. I rly would like to see what happens when you continue a routine for a month. Ofc. If you continue i would suggest also looking for more Guides about Movement and trying to lern the game itself.

Congratulations on your path to getting better! Watching you progress did remind me of my way to becoming a nasty aiming beast and also somewhat made me really proud. The funny thing is that I have not been playing seriously any FPS on a mouse since last year, yet I could feel every move of your mouse, each inch of muscle memory. By watching this video I could accurately relate to what happened the moment you didn't eliminate the enemy. Keep on going, feller. You are on the good path.

This was astonishing for just a week of practice. Your experience from speed runs and so on have enhanced your skill of retaining information and it shows, this is how muscle memory comes with ease to you when applied correctly. As you were saying around the 16 minute mark.. it is definitely stressful to be juggling so many barely touched skills at once. In my experience break them up like you do fights, focus on what you can first and deal with what you can’t afterwards… they’re just skills afterall. I can’t say you won’t ever not have stress when playing, but the more you can rely on your skills, the less you have to actively think about using them and just do it. My apologies if I was simply captain obvious, but as you also said, proper headspace is important, most important if my experience serves me any use. Anyways, definitely subscribing despite my lack of enjoyment towards valorant, but I like your mentality and for that you’ve a loyal viewer

Omg you have such a chill personality! Thanks for the motivation. I play with my bf and his friends, and they've been playing for years so I am nothing compared to them. I thought my training wasn't doing anything to help, but now I guess it might if I keep practicing. Thanks man ❤😊

Very inspiring video! I recently started aim training myself and got up to Silver 3 but then got a little discouraged, but this video gives me hope that my aim can and probably will keep getting better if I keep practicing.

I would love to see a video on improving positioning. That'd be the next frontier after aiming, since you're already better than 85% of players in that field

This was a fantastic video! Through anf through gained a lot watching, and was just well put together. Thanks for showcasing the results of your hard work!

That was so inspiring to watch, I will try to do your routines too! Amazing video, I wish I could watch more. I like how you show your bad or not so good plays too, when you whiff etc, I feel better that I'm not the only one, thank you so much for the video, keep it up ♡

Geometry dash pfp that's insane.

Nice job, not sure if anyone mentioned it yet but another thing you can work on is not peeking angles while holding W and a direction. It's a much cleaner and quicker peek if you just set your crosshair and then strafe the angle. I hope that makes sense and helps!!! There are also a lot of videos that show how you can peek better like I'm describing, maybe check those out. Your aim is getting clean but movement is definitely a huge thing in Valorant as you have realized. Nice job!

Seeing this video as a higher ranked player inspired me to get even better at the game, and the only thing i can say to this video is WOW. Amazing progress for 1 week, normally those videos are pretty boring but this was amazing, i do want to give you a few tips tho, not just about aim, i do recommend hopping into a custom game and practice your crosshair placement on the desired map, doing a clearing path (walk around the map clearing EVERY angle, so you get faster at it and learn the swiping aim, poorly used but pretty underrated!) and the other tip is a tip that will help you enjoy more besides ranking up, try to review your gameplay and review your util usage, you had almost every util available on most of your clips, so knowing how and when to use your exclusive utility can be as important as practising your aim. Keep it up, it was incredible!

Inspiring stuff, man. I'm just trying to get better at aiming in OW, and your approach here has helped me. Thanks!

Came over from your main channel and must say this other content is great! Very fun to watch you play other games besides just Hearthstone Battlegrounds. Keep up the amazing content!

This honesty gave me a lot of motivation to practice more and just train more thanks man been in a slump lately

Man, I have to thank u for this video, you really hyped me not giving up from this game, I am just like you were and now I know I can get better and exactly what to do to get better, keep the good job dude 😊

Your video actually inspires me to start training my aim again. Keep it up!

Saving this video for later man. Great watch. I’ve been variety gaming for 20 years now and have never been consistent at aiming when I do play shooters, even after 100s of hours in them. Hardest part for a gamer like me is not getting bored and seeking the next experience.

Insane vid man, love your regular stuff but this is great content as well, keep up what you're doing

This motivated me to the MAX , thank you for making this videi

nah this is unreal. gonna try this when i can, hope i improve even half as fast as you

I just started my own practice yesterday and this lovely video popped up for me today, perfect

Love the improvement! Currently I'm at dia 1 with so-so aim but that proves aim isn't everything despite it being a fps shooter. Game sense would carry you through the lower ranks but it's a lot harder to develop compared to your actual aim. Some tips i would give is watch pro players or tournaments, see how they play and even think about why they do it. Try taking up lurker roles or even controller agents to start off. The amount of micromanagement needed to be effective is very apparent for you to pull them off (Astra timing her util, harbor cutting angles so you can isolate more fights, and enemy rotations u take advantage off to know when and where to flank) Hope you video your improvement and make your way to immo : )

your aim improvement is insane!

Dude insane progress💥💥💯

your improvement is insane! that being said i do think you could improve tons more by changing some things, positioning being a main aspect. thinking about where you are and having a plan to escape are 2 insane things most valorant players dont consider that could help people a ton.

Nice progress, congrats! I just wanted to point out one thing that drove me nuts: the way your mouse cable kept hitting the PC case (?) starting from 2:06 For me, that just heavily affects the way I move my mouse around, especially at lower sensitivity. If the cable gets stuck or even "bumps" into something, the mouse movement/trajectory is affected. Might be an insignificant thing for other people but it just gets to me. I personally use a wireless mouse but even if you'd want to keep using a wired one, I'd just try to find a different way to keep that wire as loose as possible and nowhere near other objects for it to bump into. Keep up the good work!

Great vid man keep up the practice!!!

Woh man you give me the motivation to do that as well ! I'm alors bronze / silver and once I trained in the training range for 2 hours straight and clearly saw the improvement so I should try for a week like you ! Well donc !!

To consistently swipe, flick in the general direction of the target so it's within wrist range, then use your wrist to finish the alignment. Always flick with your wrist + arm together or just wrist otherwise you'll never have a consistent flick as overshooting/undershooting or building weird habits will make your aim worse in the long run since you'll make missing shots a habit if that makes sense. It might sound like it'll introduce latency when flicking on targets at you're using two separate motions instead of one, but the end goal is to merge both motions into one dynamic motion. always try to focus on accuracy over speed. eventually, you'll be accurate enough to consistently flick at any speed without missing.

so i used to be big into BGs, found your other channel with all the BG stuff and watched your content daily. fast forward a year later, im picking up Valorant and i thought the voice sounded familiar. cool to be around a familiar face and voice. i know you’ll help me along this journey too!

This was so entertaining to watch!!! keep it coming

honestly its cool so see someone lower ranked and not as skilled improve like this with this much dedication. It makes me wanna get up and get cracking but some days i just forget completely and then i dont do it for months.

I feel so inspired! Thank u man

Great job and great video Ben thank you !

This inspired me to do something myself with my aim/ gmeplay overall, thank you for inspiring me

Ty for this video, now I feel motivated to train my aim!!!

i can relate to this so much, also very nice video, i just subbed

Honestly pretty impressive! Glad to see you lower your sens and get used to it quickly. Only thing I noticed that can help is getting better with bursting. There were a few clips where you’d burst multiple times while aiming around head level and your bullets were going to the heavens. Try to make those bursts as close to your crosshair as possible. Best wishes.

These are some insane improvements for this short period of time! Really interesting experiment :) Edit: Forgot the mention the editing was very clean aswell :D

I’m super shocked how you aren’t popular. This was super professional and I just automatically assumed you had millions of subs. I’ll support you :)

Nice video , the editing is pretty good

Nah I refuse to believe I played with my favourite hs KZreadr and didn’t realise it. I’m gonna cry

One thing I’d say would be that ranking up is the hard part since you get a different set of players with different mechanical skills, different positioning, and different aim. Being able to adapt to different situations and being versatile is a pretty strong trait to try to have to being able to deal with such a range of players.

The improvements were awesome to see! I was able to get to bronze myself but I never really apply any of the skills that I have seen from other pro players. I def want to try this out and see how well I can improve!! (maybe also invest in some skins as I am a default main LOL)

this motivated me so well! too bad i have finals next week so i cant play valorant but our sembreak is just after our finals week so im definitely gonna try and do this! good video sir! :>

This video was a hell of an inspiration for me 👍

This is my favorite valorant video out of all the valorant KZreadrs this is my favorite video to watch and I watched this at least 5 times

Positive mentality and playing smarter rather than harder, are crazy ways to improve, learning from mistakes in positioning, and when/when not to use util helps out so much.

i love seeing stuff like this idk why but it makes me wanna try all that myself

Glad to see your side channel popping off Ben :D

Awesome vid fam!

Nice video man, keep it up

This was an awesome watch. To improve that much in the course of the week is bonkers, but you put the time in and you reaped the rewards. The journey might not be a straightline to immortal, but you found a process that's getting you results. I appreciate your grit to grind out the day that you weren't feeling so great, which I think stresses an important lesson. Sometimes it won't be your day, but the practice you put in that day will pay dividends in the long run. Only thing I would stress is the importance of rest. Taking some time away to give your mind and body a moment will do wonders. Making sure that you're getting enough water, sleep, food, and relaxation will do wonders for you improvement journey. Good luck in the rest of your games!

This was pretty interesting! Considering how you enjoy speedruns as well I wonder what you would think of playing Neon White. It has just the right mix of aiming and precise movement.

Thank you for this! Im more of a console player so I’m really new to keyboard and mouse movement. Been practicing in rank and grinding hard but my progress is pretty slow imo. Will definitely give this a try! Like you said, I must get to the point that my crosshair is an “extension of myself”!!!

Huge thing for me was doing the aim labs sensitivity trainer. It gives you tasks to do in a set series. Then adjusts your sens way higher or lower. This lets you play with TONS of different variation while doing the same shooting tasks. It improved my aim dramatically once I found a sens I liked. Medium bots I went from 20-25 average. Hard I could barely get 10, now I can get between 15-20! Which is huge because when I first started in beta I could barely get 2 on Hard.

I loved this video!

HOW DO YOU HAVE ONLY 3K SUBS LIKE THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST VAL VIDEOS IVE SEEN IN A WHILE

Great improvement! I think the next thing to learn would be counter strafing. Since movement becomes a big part of gameplay, especially in higher elo.

This video was actually very nice to see. As a person that has religiously played basically only FPS games on keyboard+mouse for around 14-15 years, this reminded me of back when I first started with old cs titles and I was just happy to be improving. And the idea of simply improving really stuck out in this video: the point of the video wasn't you simply becoming an aim god that everybody wants to watch like yay, but simply getting better than when you started, and I think that's what a lot of people are missing. It doesn't matter if you're not high immortal-radiant, especially if you're just playing for the fun of playing, and I find it super dumb to see people commenting things like "insert rank" is the start of high elo, or some similar bullshit when that should just be based off of personal level. If youre in silver, plat is good and something you should reach for, and iron games look easy to you, if youre in high immortal, ascendant is easy as hell and radiant is what you're reaching for, so then how could one possibly be the basis of high/low elo? This said, do you have any plans on continuing this series? I'd be great to see you continuing to improve, and while you're at it you could try and document what you learned along the way, and maybe it could help someone in a similar rank see what their flaws are and try to improve with you. Either way, +1 from me :)

having good aim is really important since you don’t have to think about it, you can focus on other things and think/plan ahead way easier

One thing that'll really help you get much better is getting good at counter strafing (also called jiggling). That's when you can very quickly move side to side and hit accurate shots in the split second you're changing direction. If you don't learn that, it'll be much harder to climb as people will be able to head shot you really easily if you have to stand completely still to aim back at them. When combined with good crosshair placement, it allows for super fast corner peaks that most people won't even be able to react to before they are already dead. It's really the main mechanic that makes good players feel so hard to kill since they almost never have to actually stop moving to get headshots.

As an ascendant and you as a (bronze at the start of the video, i havent finished it yet and i may have misheard your rank)... your aim scares me. It is legitimately better than mine so...WP.

It’s very motivating someone starting from my elo unlike many others I see where their starting from silver or gold
