How To Improve Your Aim In Valorant
To be able to improve your aim at Valorant, you first need to understand its DNA. The new free to play tactical FPS game is the brainchild of Riot Games, the creators of League of Legends. But what is the core essence of Valorant? The tactical multiplayer hero-based first-person shooter game is a merge between Counter-Strike (70%) and Overwatch (30%). Basically, if both aforementioned games were to unite in holy matrimony, Valorant would be their child.

How To Train For Valorant
The aim skill-set required to become a top Valorant aim trainer leans heavily towards high reaction speed, small accurate flick shots, weapon spread, and recoil management. Boost your skills in those attributes and you’ll move up in ranks. To explain mastering your aiming skills at Valorant in more details:
Recoil
Valorant is similar to CS but the recoil is slightly different in the former. CS offers more options to spray control, use a sequence of bursts and tap to advance while your Valorant recoil resets.
Placement
As you are advancing throughout the map, always be aware of your crosshair placement by keeping it at head height and take corners by slightly adjusting your crosshair towards the edge of the corner
Movement
When it comes to angle distance try to keep your placement ready from as far from an angle as possible, the closer you are to an angle the more at risk of being shot first.
Crosshair
Control your movement and speed while advancing, for example, don’t sprint while you’re shooting. Shifting, walking or a brief stop offers much more accuracy when shooting
Abilities
As mentioned before, Valorant overall has a linear map layout with some areas that have multiple angles, to avoid being killed, do not spread your aiming and peeking across different angles at the same time, use abilities such as smoke or viper’s poison cloud to block one angle while you take care of another and systematically work your way one angle at a time.
