Most players say they're committed. But they train when it's convenient. They quit the process on a losing streak. That's not tryharding. That's conditional effort. And it's destroying your potential. Because you never fully test yourself because you never fully commit. Not full commitment creates a loop. You are not fully disciplined because you're afraid to truly tryhard. That makes you worse. Being worse makes your motivation lower. Motivation lower less discipline. And most of you only tryhard if you know you can get there. The moment you attach your commitment to an outcome, you're already on the wrong path. "If I get Immortal it was worth it." That's conditional. That's not full tryharding. The players who maintain discipline sacrifice the outcome ENTIRELY. They tryhard on the process like a monk. They don't use Valorant as a reward machine. Be honest, you play for the reward, reaching a rank, going pro, showing someone you can be good... When you remove the outcome, the tilt disappears, the anxiety disppears, the fear of failure disappears... There's no "what if I fail?" because the learning itself is the reward. "Valorant is not life, Valorant is teacher of life." Play like you'd still do it if you never climbed. That's when you become invincible. Because there's nothing left to protect. No Ego.

Ever felt like teammates never listen to your calls? It happens in silver. It happens in immortal. It never goes away. So if it never goes away, learning to stay focused while it happens is one of the most important skills you can build. Most players treat it like bad luck. They hope the next lobby is different. But the next lobby has the same problem. And the one after that too. Every second you spend frustrated at a teammate is a second your brain is not on the game. The players who climb are not the ones who finally get good teammates. They are the ones who stopped waiting for that to not happen. The actual skill is this. Staying fully locked in on what you can control, round after round, even when teammates are doing everything wrong. Not pretending it doesn't bother you. Not muting everyone and going solo. Just not giving the situation your focus. So tonight, every time a teammate ignores a call, say nothing and ask yourself one question: What does this round still need from me? Do this enough times and staying locked in becomes automatic!

Hey guys, everyone here should know by now that carrying for the RR and Rank, its a distraction for the gameplay (its an interference). I really think i have a very good mental but even me being like that, its really really hard to don't think about RR. If i lose 3 games in one day, that makes me angry and in a bad mood, for me and for those around me, and worst if its close to a promotion. That shows i care too much about the rank. So, how did i solve this problem? The @NeuroShot Valorant tip i saw was to take a look on my life outside Valorant. Basically fixing my life, my relationships, my goals, be a better person in general, If i lose a few games i don't get too mad because the rest is ok. "Valorant is not life, Valorant is teacher of life". Its easy to understand the law but truly not an easy one to put it in practice. Try it, think about it, and let me know if it worked for somebody else, I'm really curious

Most players think the goal is to never tilt. That's impossible. Every player tilts, even pros. The real skill is how fast you come back after it happens. In performance psychology this is called Next Play Speed. The moment a play ends, it's gone. The only thing that matters is the next one. I made a video about this today. But I want to know from you, after a bad death, how fast are you to lock back in?
