If you have difficulties playing against Neon. Play TDMs, every game has a Neon. And playing Neon yourself gets you used to playing Neon

Also, about Abyss, I’m a yoru / omen main, but I’ll play sova sometimes on ascent. Yoru and neon are by far the best agents on Abyss because of the rotate timings. There’s so much you can do with yoru especially. For example you can jump off map and look towards the mains on defense to get free info. It’s a sova dart.. that you get 2 of… at the start of the round… with the same tech you can play wierd off angles like the rope in mid, and then when you get one you drop off the rope and tp. You also get fast rotates onto sites in defense and it’s always useful. There’s also so much verticality that flashes are super useful cause of the wierd bounces you can do. Eggsterrs winrate on Abyss with yoru is like 75% and his k/d is like 1.45. Let someone else play smokes.

Neon is really annoying in my diamond games too, and my enemy neons aren’t nearly as good as yours, but Ive come up with my own method of dealing with them. Ignoring them. When Neon’s come out during a site exec, I often times play close so that when I hear the neon wall and run past me, I run into the wall and focus her teammates. 2 - 3 Teammates are better than 1 Neon and they don’t expect me there so quick especially when neon just cleared. I have a teammate break initiator util for me to play close. Once they get used to me playing close I start playing super super deep. For example on ascent I’ll play coffin or deep hell where I’m almost certain ranked neons will try to push off some util, and they’re likely not going to expect me and I can pick them off and play for retake.

A small bit of advice. At 19::05 you say you learned an angle from less 1v4 and it was easy to find bjt i dont think it would ruin engagement to pull the clip in your video to get a more visual representation of how it should be played

Dopai I think that you are thinking of neon the wrong way. Neon is not an ordinary entry because she can’t get past a choke like raze. That means call for stuff like crossfires or play wide angle. For example when neon jumped of smoke when you where omen instead of playing right side rafter play left side rafter. This gives you both cover from the team that is running out and a lot more time to hit the neon. Then a simple tp back to safety and neon is countered. And as a cypher you can completely destroy neons by just learning their roll outs. For example that wiff on neon sunset. What if you had a trip back site and hid in smoke expecting the neon to push.

I see your point, though I do think that neon does make it past the choke relatively easily with her wall.

About what you said about bind and taking elbow control, I have a question. I notice on other maps including bind that people will do, say for example, an A split on Ascent to gain tree control on top of control of main/site. Yet a lot of times I see people going to close the door and giving up the tree control they fought so hard to get for free. Is there a good reason for doing that? Or is that the incorrect thing to do?
@mapen9994
Күн бұрын
It depends sometimes leaving a lurk in the tree scenario is good. But the enemy also knows this a possibility and will invest utility to clear tree meaning if no one is there they still have to fight a full team with less until. But all and all valorant is such a dynamic game there are no right or wrong only better and worse. Not really relevant but mid ascent is so easy to take for attackers that you almost always see som type of mid split on that map.
@sokestrel3856

@@mapen9994 Thank you for input. Usually what I’ll do in this ascent example is I’ll smoke tree off (specifically the chokepoint that leads to the breakable glass window (not the tree choke that leads into main) since we have tree control and I’ll try to maintain that control by myself or with a teammate since that gives them less avenues to retake from. And like you said they have to invest utility to take it which is awesome and you can just fall back to site if you end up getting overwhelmed.
@Dopai

If you can maintain tree control on the A split on ascent, then it's better to do so. But sometimes if there are site players or heaven players. It's better to close the door so you can just focus on the site fight. But if there's not much fighting going on, then holding tree is better IMO

@@Dopai That makes a lot of sense that one would want to help clear site for tree control to be at peak effectiveness, otherwise you’d end up baiting your team for the most part. Thank you for your input as well.

4.10 how I think you should have played; stay regardless of your team's behavior or the chances of enemies going C you're way faster at rotating thanks to neon's speed - if they rotate instead of you and the enemy goes A, your team can throw util from a safe position, possibly helping you out or allowing you to fight together. plus, you had a wall to escape if needed, your teammates do not. scenario: if the enemy goes c - your team will be closer and can either bait utility and/or play retake, maybe even trade each other depending on the situation to hold or not. if the enemy sentinel tries to lurk and dies, you could play off that mistake and wait until you know where the majority of their players are to pressure them from behind. even if you fail, cypher or someone else who decides to stay towards B (preferably someone who has little to no util left) can still head to a site or an off angle before the enemies could, worst case scenario: you sit on a and enemies don't make any noise and full hit C while their kj waits for you, but even then knowing ranked, they will somehow make noise and your team is going to over-rotate which in this case would be optimal as your team would get a better hold through their util and you gaining tons of information for free to decide where you go next, most of the time this playstyle is boring and gets you less kills sometimes but you will win more, especially if you prevent the teams mistakes by looking at the minimap and calling out stuff, ofc there is a chance people do not listen, but just adapt to their playstyle drop the ego even if it annoys you, even if you dont know exactly what their plan is, this game is a mental game not a mechanical skill game, at least for ranked, besides if they go a (like this case) you would have a chance to show your mechanical skill if youre insane you pop off if not at least you got your one and/or info and sometimes thats more than enough as even tho the attackers gain more from a 5 or 4v4, they have less time and have to run through smokes if they want to take site opening up more chance for your team to gain an advantage in a fight, besides, if youre lucky enough enemy team wasted util already by trying to take the first fight, even if your team uses more util, for defence this is better as it creates less unexpected pressure to hold site, unless you get ulted obviously but this you can see and plan beforehand for most people this is information they dont want to process ingame as its alot when you dont play much its not second nature to you obviously, however the best way to come up with stuff like that is just to think of 1. ways to support your team to have more team fights - mostly keep comms up, look at the minimap, dont die 2. ways to annoy the enemy team as much as possible - unless you know 100% you cant lose obviously 3. ways to use your utility guaranteeing to get what you want - make sure you either take space or have a 2/3 chance for a kill, info is only useful for restructuring plans, finding gaps, not to create gaps, with that i mean dont give enemy shit for free unless you know they dont know that you know that you can take that risk (example: you know they likly dont lurk because you saw their sentinel on the other site when they rotated, so either they long rotate which in ranked is unlikely too, or short rotate, which you can hold while your team plays 4 site, depends on map of course) only god knows why i decided to write a paragraph about some random match in a random video, i guess deinstalling valorant didnt help to much... invested to much time and energy hoping it would change into something i would love to play on a daily didnt really know I was this passionate about it f* this game man im going through all stages rn aaahhhhh...

I think your argument to me makes the case of neon rotating stronger than anchoring. Simply bc if they were to come back and re-fight A, I would be able to turn around and make it back quicker than they would. Regardless though, I think some simple communication would've fixed it

Unfortunately it feels like now neon is not skill based as previous. Maybe it has to be like this, but it's so sad to think that before You needed to have some skills and now you can just run, jump, shoot and get kills. Recently I tried neon on immo 2 and have to say that was easy (I haven't played neon before for a long time). Is it fair? Probably not. Can we do smth with that? Probably not. So it's time to adapt😢
