This is a simple thing really, that no one in low elo really knows.
So, after you hear a tap, you wait for a whole 2 seconds. This applies generally in 1v1 scenario, but in other situations also you can apply this logic.

Valorant is a game about **space and angle control**. And imo, its usually more important to take and hold more space away from the enemy instead of giving it up for a safe plant. Unless you are omen with ult, it usually takes you longer fo...
