Valorant Challenge 1: Spike Rush Cypher
Today I didn’t have the time or the pc to play competitively. I played a couple of spike rush games as cypher.
Impressions:
- Hot damn it’s hard to play cypher. So much to put down in so little time. The cages are HARD to use as well.
- I don’t know if playing different agents will help me play. Maybe I should just refine my mains.
- I think agents like cypher play around their utility (they almost never peek unless they have to). I wonder if I should do that more with all agents (play around flash and grenades, shockdarts and mollys)
- Makes me think flashes are waay worse at getting info. It’s all or nothing. The timing needs to be right and you need to be able to push with your team to gain ground rather than flashing randomly.
- To counter a cypher I need to guess where the camera is and shoot it out. Requires knowledge of common cam spots. Dunno how I will get that knowledge without watching tons of videos. Poopers.
- Cage + wires can be OP since wires reveal and cage block their vision.
- You need to be f*cking fast on the camera or they will shoot it out.
- Crouch and shoot wires head level to get wires you cannot jump or crouch over or under.
I feel like my posture was pretty terrible after the practice. My left shoulder blade was hurting and my stomach was clenched.
I need to work on processing the emotions better and feeling my body more (using the sensual feeling technique I will discuss later). I will also need to work on posture exercises way more. After working my body for about 20 minutes with shaking, stretching, and posture exercises, my should mostly doesn’t hurt anymore and my digestion feels much better.
