i analyzed my recent loss to the point it went all wrong (should have just been the agent select then)

tl:dr
i, and my team, played like shit

anyways, first real time doing something like this for Valorant
so here is the document if you want to read it, also please give constructive criticism so i can improve my analyzing of future matches
might attempt that with some VCT Matches who knows

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1034gl2WWXFWI8AtVpRlYdo_vUX7Z5pItvl_QMbiNjn4/edit?usp=sharing

for now, im taking a break

whiting my thoughts down

round 1: youre taking way too long, its ranked they will probably fast rotate sincd its 1st round, also you placed the cypher cam AFTER your jett placed the angle i like the idea but you can line it up preround
Why is you sova AFK?
After taking so long you should probably go with your reyna into a mid split, you probably cant force onto site without sova

we went to aggressive and thick headed into the round
you were making noise, not doing shit and then peeking 1 by 1 / into bad fights
————————
round 2: your team is baiting but eco so idc
————————
round 3: i think you dont have smokes so you should kinda try with cypher to cage something
also you know the enemy has an outlaw and still continue to buy half shields atp i would go guardian full shield (problem with forcing sherrifs round 2)
————————
round 4: i like the cam and that you want to go mid, i would have given the bomb to gekko, let my team entry into site and try to walk down catwalk (also i didnt see money could they have an operator?)
well it ended up being the reason why i ended up being disconnected from the team

dont follow the propaganda that you have to play together with your team, especially on cypher you can try to take space somewhere else on the map and maybe enable a fake/rotation
yall are just fighting bad fights? bzw you fight nothing
——————
round 5:
before i watch: tbh as much as i like the cam you should probably start with you sova tiles because you have the perfect angle to cage tree and apply mid pressure
OR
sava drones mid bottom and you walk up cat trying to catch the skye off guard
while watching: sova did a beautiful dart you know nobody is mid bottom so why dont you just peek it? jerking off in cypher cam will not benefit you
one of the worst jump spots ive seen btw no front but you are clearing what you held not even a second ago like what, youre right you should have cypher ulted/noticed the jett
more edits inc
BUT HONESTLY YOUR TEAMATES SHOULD COMM "Jett 1hp" and "Jett there"
for the peeks towards spawn you didnt even consider switch as a possible angle, its a 1v1 she can hold the weirdest offangles just expect everything

REMEMBER THIS: Youre very indecisive, its like you dont have a plan, you should have a plan like: "ok im just gonna rotate a" or "i walk into b in 10 seconds" and stick with it
A plan is better than NO plan

-> look at jett: its a 1v1 and she hears you jump back towards lobby, you might fake the footsteps so she tries to clear b main to confirm whether you left or not (she is 1hp so she takes the risk of you holding)

—————
round 6: i like that you finally try mid but the OP is very annoying, you probably use a mixture of cypher cages and reyna flashes to push him off the angle OR just cage your reyna out of the corner
chekc money pre round to avoid OPs SOVA can also try to drone

when youre on site at ~0:55 you still have 2 trips i would place them heaven and door and try to get the under heaven plant for main and its good
oh my good nt on the 1v3 the way you jiggled prefired the breach was sexy but also kinda indecisive again

————
round 7: why are we walking in spawn? you knew because of the cam that nobody can hear you just run
your team just all died

---------------------
round 8: idk everyone just got pushed and died

----------------
round 9: you use gekko ult to take a main but dont recover it?(not your fault but weird) you cut noise qnd make the enemy second guess, but instead of entrying after 15s you split up and take 1v1s
with the fast start and instant ult they guess its a rush and instant rotate but after it becomes quiet they think its a fake, you should read the timing here and tell your team to group up and re-hit together

Also i would somehow like for you to hold b lobby (trip is enough) so you have more map control, i dont know why they even rotated away because reyna should hear you if you run spawn and you dont know about her

-------------
round 10: tell your mates its a horrible plant, they should be jailed for planting there
also i know what you mean that the cypher cam made you play disconnected, you legit just jerk off mid top, doing pretty much nothing, you also do the same play pretty much every round switch it up more, it would be enough to start tiles and do the cam towards tree

----------‐---------
round 11: i like that you want to play towards a main, i also like that you walked into a main but i would have done it earlier as the enemies were distracted with fighting you teamates you know where 3 are and reyna usually played b so at most it should be only clove A -> you can take a 1v1 (youre down players so you want that)

----------------
round 12: did you not comm that skye pushed mid or is your gekko just retarded? he should not be running knife out there

little thing i like to do when im rotating spawn is to go as far away from mid as possible that people who pushed mid cannot hear you as easily (look at the circle on the minimap)

jett gives you the 1v1 and you kill her, thats nice
i also like the reposition towards heaven the plant if fine for that but could be better (no criticism) i would have played the 1v1 differently tho:
you know breach is probably shitting his pants right now after you made it a 1v1, he heard you stomping heaven running like you were about to peek him, i would run close there to make kt sound like i was about to peek him but dont peek, he probably gets off, after that i would use cam and try a instant wideswing peek (i would not have started walking, he knows where you are anyways, dont walkpeek an angle, youre diamond that's an iron mistake, also if it helps you know where he is because he tapped bomb) in short: youre low do something unexpected and dont start walking when he knows where you are anyways

---------------------
round 13:

another small tip, i would ALWAYS do agressive cypher cams on defense for the quick information and quick rotate off it until they realize whats going on and start breaking your cams
(THIS IS A RANKED TIP)

nice round

round 1:
i planed on lining it up preround but messed up by a couple of pixels
no idea what Sova was doing,
yeah, me and Reyna should have probably went to mid, but we probably both tunnel visioned on main, lack of comms in the match too

yeah that too, we gave them isolated gunfights with numbers that dont favor us and no util at that

round 3:
thats something i had in the document but edited out because the Subject(?)(the title above the text) didnt fit the context, luckily i still have it

Short overview:

my team, has the disadvantage of no smokes, i did not notice this however, no idea why, but this however let to me playing the usual lurk style even though my team needed my cages for entry
as seen in Rounds:
…
almost all

Why didnt i pick smokes? I practically insta picked cypher and zoned out in the pick phase afterwards

it was also not commned that we dont have smokes so ... idk, i was just unaware

with the half shields, its definitely the smarter choice, probably force of habit

Round 4:
there were no operators in play yet, they came in at round 6
as for the spike, i should have handed it to gecko, true, as to why i didnt, i think my mind blanked

as for the quote:
as cypher in that team without smokes i probably should have, my cages would have made entry easier

yes, we took bad fights, i turned to check flank, because my cam was broken and a while has passed (even though i have a trip), still not aware i have the spike (i assume just looking at the replay, idk what my thought process during matches were) i thous did not take part in our teams execution

Round 5
during the match sova didnt comm, but yeah, starting from tiles would have made more sense, might need to lookup some lineup guides though to cage off tree

yeah i did spent too much time in cam the whole match, i know that, as for why i didnt walk down cat, idk, i was lacking gamesense there

the jumpspot was due to slight ptsd from valorant timings,
i did not notice that i have ult, thats why it ended up being my death sentence when my team reminded me

true on the fact they should have commed that, they didnt, they only commed to remind me i had my ult

True on the indecisiveness
no idea how i can rid myself from it though
i generally do second guess myself
probably low self confidence
thats a seperate topic and something im aiming to fix too

Round 6:
i know already that i spent too much time in the cam and didnt really help my team there.
after round 5 my mental was pretty low and kept sinking
most of the mistakes at this point are probably due to frustration and my indecisiveness

i wont edit any more responses because i cant recall my thought process for these rounds, still if you want you could continue pointing out my mistakes and recommend possible solutions so i dont repeat them, it also would be much appreciated, but that depends if you want to continue spending your time on this

well the main problem is that you dont realize your enemies are rotating very fast, i know its round 4 but your team is fighting them so you should see it on minimap and be ready to cancel and rotate/fake

makes sense
i was probably blanking on it then

im guessing mental fatigue and frustration with my current performance
but probably its because this strategy isnt played often and thous you dont really think about it yourself (especiall when your kinda new to maining the sentinel class and not flexing)

did they give up after round 5? did they give up after they were down 1-11?

no but i cant compare myself to pro players,
my mental after round 5 might have been low, but i still tried to clutch round 6, just for that fail to ruin my mental again, and then the round 12 fail...
3 failed clutches, all that i brought down to a 1v1, on my hands

lowkey if you have a good team they hype you up there after the close clutches 🤷🏻‍♂️
