I got pretty serious about climbing ranked that I thought it would be a good idea to get coaching. I ordered the coaching from a Radiant player when I was in Platinum. The only coaching that I thought was accessible to me was through a session on fiverr. I don't want to throw anyone under the bus so I won't reveal any names. It was not the type of coaching I thought it was going to be. I thought that I was going to play a match and broadcast it and get direct coaching on what I did poorly and what I can improve on. I ordered the Live coaching package but all I got was a coach streaming him in a custom match and going over tips that could have honestly been made into a free youtube video. So rather than paying around $35 for a set of tips, I decided to write the tips mixed with my own for people to hopefully benefit from.

1. Solo queue has too many variables, you can make all the right actions and still lose since you are only 20% of the team
2. Mute toxic team ASAP
3. Have an aim routine, Kovaak's (I personally used Valorant Pyth Routine variations for warmup). Don't do aimlab gridshot
4. Always readjust to the head
5. Watch Ron Rambo Kim's "How To Peek Better in FPS Games (Peeking Technique)" Video
6. Don't hold incredibly short gaps between the edge of the wall and your crosshair (just because Shroud does it, doesn't mean you should)
7. If you're holding angles with shorter distances between you and your target, hold a little wide
8. If you're holding angles with longer distances between you and your target, hold a little narrow
9. Pacing (This was actually useful)

-early/late round, pace is either fast (aka rushes) or slow (aka default)

-mid round, pace is slow

-late round, pace is fast because one team has to get the plant off10) If you get a man advantage (aka 5v4) play slow. If you're down a man, try to take a calculated risk to equalize teams into your favour. (aka your team is 4v5, you should try to get a frag to make it a 4v4, probably not worth if you're a sentinel with utility set on site)11) eco rounds, do something crazy with your team. aka rush it down mid with 5 pistols. shift walk out as 5 on one side of the map until you make contact and then run it down

I personally don't think that the coaching session was worth that money. However, I also don't really want to sewer anyone for trying to make a hustle. Just be careful who you are getting coaching from and make sure that their coaching fits your needs.

Edit: 5 and 6 are my tips, while the rest were his. 6 was something he mentioned but both 5 and 6 were concepts that I already knew.Also, as of writing this post, I am Diamond 1 if anyone was curious
