AI Summary

A Valorant player shares three key lessons from a coaching session with Thwifo, a Radiant pro player for 100 Thieves, that improved his aim and game sense.

Reset Aim Before Peeking

Reset your crosshair and mouse position before peeking an angle to ensure you're aiming from your strongest hand and forearm position, and mentally prepare for the fight.

[1:22]
Perfect Micro Flicks

Practice micro flicks using scenarios like 1wall6targets small (Kovaak's) or 6shot ultimate (Aim Lab). Focus on 90%+ accuracy first, then increase speed.

[2:46]
Know When Aim Isn't the Problem

Thwifo pointed out that losing duels is often due to positioning and movement, not aim. Repositioning can shift the advantage in your favor.

Improving aim involves resetting before peeking, practicing micro flicks, and recognizing when positioning is the real issue.

[00:00] so I had a coaching session with radiant

[00:02] Pro Player and sixth man for 100 thieves

[00:05] with waifu in case you don't know him

[00:08] yet this is him

[00:10] one bullet

[00:16] he's pretty good it's safe to say and

[00:18] here are the three most important things

[00:20] he taught me that fixed my aim and that

[00:23] are going to fix yours too tip number

[00:25] one was a total game changer for me

[00:28] reset your aim before you Peak an angle

[00:31] because the problem is this if you move

[00:33] around the map and track your Crosshair

[00:35] along the angles then your wrist and arm

[00:38] naturally can stay in the default

[00:40] position if you now go ahead and Peak

[00:43] angles right away without resetting

[00:46] first you're putting yourself at a

[00:48] disadvantage because you are not aiming

[00:50] from your strongest hand and forearm

[00:52] position so take a second before you

[00:55] peek to pre-aim your Crosshair properly

[00:57] reset your mouse position and mentally

[01:00] prepare to take a fight the mental

[01:03] aspect is another reason why this tip

[01:05] from thwifo made such a difference for

[01:07] me by taking a short moment to prepare

[01:09] for the peak you're just so much more

[01:12] dialed in and ready to instantly kill

[01:14] any enemy that appears on your screen

[01:16] when you strafe out so that's the first

[01:19] piece of the puzzle the second one to

[01:22] complement it is perfecting your micro

[01:24] flicks and that makes total sense

[01:26] because if you Peak every angle prepared

[01:28] and ready then your Crosshair can't be

[01:30] off by much all that's left to do is to

[01:33] micro flick on the enemy's head and

[01:35] instantly kill him the faster and more

[01:37] consistently you can do that the more of

[01:39] a fragging monster you're going to

[01:40] become according to thrifo the Holy

[01:43] Grail aim training scenario to practice

[01:45] is 116 Target small on Kovacs or

[01:48] something like 6 shot ultimate on

[01:50] aimlabs he told me not to worry about my

[01:53] score and go slow in the beginning

[01:55] ninety percent plus accuracy is the goal

[01:58] and once you get that you can increase

[02:00] speed on the Range you can then combine

[02:02] your micro flicks with strafing movement

[02:05] focus on still being sharp with your

[02:07] flicks and not lazily rely on your

[02:10] movement to get your Crosshair On Target

[02:13] in death matches you can then put

[02:15] everything together reset your aim

[02:17] before peaking an angle peek out and

[02:19] micro flick fights will feel a lot

[02:21] easier once you get this done correctly

[02:23] and transfer this good habit into your

[02:25] ranked games

[02:27] now this all makes sense but then

[02:29] towards the end of the coaching session

[02:31] something interesting happened before I

[02:34] tell you what that was make sure to

[02:36] check out the link to Twitter's coaching

[02:37] in the description down below he really

[02:40] is a great coach and if you're serious

[02:41] about improving he will help you to

[02:43] achieve your goals so back to that aha

[02:46] moment I shot y for this clip because I

[02:49] felt like I was having trouble with

[02:51] holding angles and I expected him to

[02:54] correct my Crosshair placement or

[02:55] movement or something like that but he

[02:58] simply said that I have almost no chance

[03:00] to win that duel because the enemy knows

[03:03] where I am after I just shot at the

[03:05] brimstone and the Jet comes at me with

[03:08] perfect cross replacement and peaker's

[03:10] advantage

[03:11] so I learned a very important lesson you

[03:14] have to understand when aim is not the

[03:16] problem maybe you're a bit of a

[03:18] perfectionist and overthinker like me

[03:20] and tend to doubt your aim when losing

[03:22] duels like this but as dwightful pointed

[03:25] out often it's not your aim it's your

[03:28] positioning and movement here's a

[03:31] crucial example for that I Peak the

[03:33] enemy sage in a short so now she knows

[03:35] where I am if I repeat this exact angle

[03:39] she's going to have her Crosshair ready

[03:41] for my head and instantly kill me and

[03:44] before I would have always wondered why

[03:46] everyone seems to have faster aim than

[03:48] me but a simple repositioning by going a

[03:51] few steps closer to the wall totally

[03:53] shifts the advantage on this duel in my

[03:55] favor Sage's Crosshair is in a bad spot

[03:58] for my Peak I am also super fast on her

[04:01] screen while I know where to aim to get

[04:04] the skill easily that's why

[04:06] repositioning is such an undervalued

[04:08] skill I've made a detailed guide on it

[04:10] that's linked on screen right now you

[04:12] should definitely watch it next to

[04:13] understand how you can give yourself the

[04:16] advantage in every single fight until

[04:18] next time much love peace
