SoloQ Commandments to increase %wr:
- dont push alone against an eco, play long range to punish pistols
- dont buy a Vandal/Phan on round2 unless you have full shield as well. Always have a teammate next to you for him to pick it up
- after death insantly comm where is the opponent and how much dmg you did, swear to yourself afterwards, keep the anger to yourself
- If you are a duelist, you need be the frontline. communicate you are pushing site so you can be traded.
- If you are a Jett player that doesnt dash to site on attack and you are just hiding with an OP - you are doing it wrong. Please consider using a different agent. Its fine on defense but not on attack.
- If you are not a duelist, YOU NEED to follow the duelist when they enter the site. If you dont trade them, its a wasted execute and you are playing the game incorrectly.
- DONT BE AFRAID OF TAKING DAMAGE OR DYING! Sometimes pushing through a smoke and molly is a correct decision if your teammates need help. You wont win the round if half of the team is dead and werent traded!
- Learn to use proper smokes even if you dont play smokes. Link to my guide in comments.
- Dont relay on postplant lineups! Your team most likely needs you more on site to fight then to sit passively. Use your util to push people off and buy time.
- Communicate with the team to always have the same approach when it comes to buys: full buy, half buy, full eco, force!
- If you have an advantage in defense, dont push! Play default and let attackers do their job.
- 4v4, 3v3 2v2 is an advantage towards attackers! Thats when you want to combine numbers and punish one site!
- Wait for your defender teammates when retaking site. Dont allow yourself to get killed without a follow up/trade.
- Dont use your utility if you have no intent/reason to. Always think what you gain from it.
- Always be close to your teammate so you trade him insantly! If it takes 2 seconds for you to avenge someone - you are a baiter.
- If you lurk, wait for the team to execute. If you push before that, that means you are attacking alone which is essentially inting/griefing your team. Your task is to catch opponents rotations and gain map control!
- BE PATIENT! You can occasionaly push on defense but it shouldnt be your routine! Dont grief your team by constantly pushing the same angles.
I posted this on twitter if someone would like to share

I will be also doing a series on my youtube about fundamentals of SoloQ because as I see on twitter, there a lot interest in those basica.

How long did it take you to reach Immortal? (Or any other rank)
After 1 year of playing valorant I'm starting to play competitive. I want to know what's the situation with deranking from diamond1 to silver 2 in 3 matches?
