$85/hr???? This is the most obvious scam, but the valorant Subreddit thinks otherwise.

Thoughts?????

U could get all the advice he gives for free by watching guides, for the amount of money u r making paying him u def expect him to help improve ur gamesense and decision making but instead he tells u to practice crosshair placement in dms

jollz is literally a scammer lmao, his most specific personalised advice is like "go with team and look at the minimap sometimes"

Compare any of his coaching videos to for example a woohoojin vod review, and consider that woohoojin does this for free, it's night and day. Honestly you learn more from watching Woohoojin coach other people than from getting personal coaching from jollz

also let him charge whatever he wants, but if someone is looking to actually improve without paying this shit ton of money,

watch boaster's stream, you can watch his streams from even 1-2 years back and you'll learn more than enough to instantly improve your gameplay
watch boaster's youtube guides on different agents of different players
watch nats guides on his youtube

that will be more than enough and would cost 0 $

bro he doesnt even talk about that side of the game a lot. he focuses mostly on enjoying himself and trolling with som, and sometimes say what he did why he did and call the opponent shit (this all is perfectly fine and valid), but boaster talks literally about the game he is playing round by round. he says why he did a peak, what he did wrong in a round, what should he do in future. how to handle rotates etc etc. boaster's streams are tailor made for people to get better. fns is a bit of learning and a lot of entertainment, while boaster's streams are basically a coaching session with one of the best itw.

that just means that his gf is willing to help and manage the reservations so he doesn't have to? she's likely getting a portion of the money too for it, but either way it makes sense, there's nothing wrong with someone helping their partner deal with stuff like that and it doesn't make it a joke?

Unless you’re a semipro showing genuine vods all coaching is a scam

85 dollars is a reasonable price for a franchised roster’s star player though. I have no doubt people will pay that much

You either want to get better or you don't.
And if you do wanna get better, just look at some YouTube guides or something. It's better than wasting 80 dollars lmao.

i don't know why people are like trying to flame him for this? yeah, for most people $85/hour is absolutely not worth it and they shouldn't even consider this. but he's obviously not trying to coach the entire valorant community? he's doing like 3 hours a day which is 3 sessions per day so 21 sessions per week assuming he does do it everyday. there's certainly going to be a lot more people that would want his coaching than that.

people are saying he's overcharging, but there's an extremely high chance that all or at least most of his available slots will be filled, so is it really overcharging if the supply meets the demand? he knows his value, he's young and is trying to make extra money for himself by doing something he'll at least somewhat enjoy, while not having to commit an unnecessarily high amount of time to it.

be honest with yourself, if you were in his position and knew you could make $85/hour from coaching... you'd probably try to charge $120 or even $150/hour to get even more money, and honestly if he did that he'd probably still get customers. if it's not for you, and for most people it definitely isn't, then... it's not for you? there's nothing wrong with what he's doing.

You're paying for his time. He is charging what makes most sense for him, not for you. He has to take in to account and consider the opportunity cost of missing out on streaming revenue or free time.
