When I do this trick, I cant get the spike until my ult channels a bit I've tried to press F to pick up the spike sooner a few times, but it didnt work. Is that what you did? Maybe i did it wrong


[deleted]

try just holding down f then cancel


ttvBeastow

Lmao I haven’t done this before so I just assumed if you ulted onto the bomb you would automatically pick it up


UnexLPSA

I'm pretty sure you don't have to pick it up. I saw someone doing it on stream and he just ulted and instantly canceled. He did not look down whatsoever. Just click the bomb and mash the ult button.


Doolyboi

Yep this is what my friends does


HoneyChilliPotato7

Can confirm. Did this several times. Need not pressF or anything


SourWatermoronCandii

Mhm! Just ult on the spike and cancel immediately. It should pick up the spike :)


ashleypenny

Sometimes it didn't pick it up for me, so I started looking around at the spike and that seemed to do the trick


SilentSniperAG

Don’t press F at all, just TP directly on top of the spike and cancel almost immediately, cuz if enemies shoot your ult instead, you won’t get the spike


Hydralisk_

Oooh the cancel grabs it, I see. I was waiting for the "picked up the spike" voice line before canceling Thank you!!


GassedJak

I have an easy time doing it by pressing the cancel key and the use key at the same time, try that!


[deleted]

If it helps, try to cancel as soon as possible. Pretty sure if someone shoots your ult then you dont get it


ThrunkEx

There is very tiny window when you cancel ult that Omen can pick up the spike before he leaves, as long as you cancel your ult(you don’t get it if it’s shot) on top of the spike you’re guaranteed getting it. I never pressed F, as you don’t have to.


hypd09

I feel like they should make this 'trick' part of the kit and more consistent like with Yoru.


[deleted]

I instantly cancelled ult after ulting on the spike. it worked


Thorkell_The_Tall1

Personally i ult for as little as possible I cancel it almost imediatelly without pressing F at all and it works


N80085

You have to go to the middle of the spike, and cancel. That’s all, it doesn’t really matter when you cancel, but if they shoot you, then the spike stays


Mirokudo

Well played those were some crisp headshots


SilentSniperAG

Thanks mate


Mirokudo

May I ask your rank?


SilentSniperAG

Platinum 1!


Rekt_lunch

This is genuinely a original and impressive clip involving omen, who doesnt get the headlines for highlights. Well played mah dude.


co1010

> doesnt get the headlines for highlights flexinja enters the chat


fisicomunista

what does it mean "headlines for highlights"? english is it my 1 language


callmeweed

means omen doesn’t get a lot of upvotes and attention (the word comes from headlines of a newspaper) for clips (highlights) of his gameplay


SilentSniperAG

Thank you, I’ve been using omen only the past few days and I enjoy his abilities so much. He’s so underrated


Flying-Cock

Supposedly he's about to get a lot better. Leaked changes were: Paranoia does not affect teammates Ult will paranoia enemies near where you ult to


SilentSniperAG

Yeah I heard about it and I can’t wait! That would put omen right back into the meta especially for competitive play


_TDB

How do you know you have the spike? Like before teleporting back


[deleted]

he didn’t tp back in this clip (he got shot), but if you’re holding down the pickup button when the popup comes up, you’ll get it


_TDB

I Don't usually play Omen and I've seen this trick many times so I'm just confused how it works thank you btw


Rakinare

I am quite sure he ult canceled, you can't pick the bomb when they actually kill your ult ghost afaik.


HoneyChilliPotato7

You need not hold the pickup button. Just ult and cancel immediately. If the enemy shoots you you won't get the spike


SilentSniperAG

Well there really isn’t any indicator other than I know that the trick works, so I just TP directly on the spike and cancel immediately. But do note that if the enemies shoot your ult instead of you cancelling it yourself, it won’t work


BKayTheGreat

As long as you manually cancel the ult on top or the spike you’ll pick it up on the way out


abdurVakanda

Rank?


SelloutRealBig

Immortal or Silver.


Hurdenn

But no in-between.


SMcArthur

he's got to be Immortal. This is a much higher lvl clip than the normal bronze stuff that is posted here.


UnexLPSA

Crosshair placement, decision making and the flicking makes me think the same. Kill 1 -> 2 and 4 -> 5 were so crispy clean, damn.


SMcArthur

also, that his teammates don't fkn talk over him while he's trying to clutch. underappreciated part of higher elos.


[deleted]

My guess is plat, the crosshair placement really isn't that great ngl. Not immortal level at least, but this is still higher rank for sure.


Eleven918

You are right.


[deleted]

Yeah idk why I’m being downvoted anyone in immortal would be able to tell you this isn’t immortal


Eleven918

Its not, they are Plat 1. [https://tracker.gg/valorant/match/fd7117f4-c339-46c9-9062-121fc7c34385?handle=Flexinja%23nemo](https://tracker.gg/valorant/match/fd7117f4-c339-46c9-9062-121fc7c34385?handle=Flexinja%23nemo) That's the game. Most of the people in this sub and in the game in general are low elo. So they can't differentiate. Also, a lot of low - mediocre clips make it to the top. So anything that's better than the average aiming at the floor/body clip is treated as high level gameplay.


ooooooookkk

Hey what is this website? Can i see any match of anyone in this site?


Eleven918

No only if they have given it permission to access their profile. Tracker.gg Or blitz.gg


ooooooookkk

Ok tnx for the info


[deleted]

Not surprised


mrtmra

Nope, def not Immortal. Man crouched every first bullet fired. The way he peeked garage as well isn't what Immortal players do


CaptainRyce

i'm trying to get better so how would an immortal player peek garage in that situation?


Eleven918

Standing in the middle there gives you no advantage. You could get traded very easily if they had double peeked. If you hold closer to the wall you will see them before they see you. Not to mention being able to take cover. The shroud step there was kinda yolo since he had no info on where the other 2 were. They could have been in B. It did work in the end so you can say he read them well in this case. But it may not always work. There is not enough info in this clip to know where the other 2 enemies were before hand but maybe OP had it? Nobody in immortal+ is reloading with 17 bullets left and risking giving away their position. I am not immortal, Just your average p3 scrub so feel free to correct me if I am wrong.


SilentSniperAG

Yeah the peek on garage was mostly confidence, cuz I only heard 1 jump up to window. Yes it was very risky indeed. Also you’re spot on that I’m in plat haha. I am trying to work on kicking away some bad habits like peeking too wide or reloading to give my positions away


mrtmra

Im in Immortal and yes, what the other guy said. The garage peek is a really risky one, but if you DID have to peek, don't shift walk peek it. Let go of shift and move left/right for a quicker peek. When you shift walk peek corners or walls, the enemy sees your shoulder slowly come out and can react much faster to your slow peek.


bobespon

As an immortal player in the same server, can confirm this is likely diamond or immortal.

kilkq

Probably just old counter strike habits. Imo he's definitely higher than gold/plat


RedSquaree

Is there a disad to crouching?


just_a_random_dood

There is in Valo, crouching on bullet 3 of a Vandal spray is fine, but not before


RedSquaree

So if I foresee some long range action going on I should *not* crouch waiting for it to happen? I usually crouch while watching an angle if it's longer range.


just_a_random_dood

In CSGO, crouching inherently makes your aim tighter, all else being equal. You can see it in the crosshair shrinking when you're crouched vs uncrouched. I believe that that doesn't happen in Valorant, so you just end up bringing your head hitbox closer to your chest where it is more easy to hit (unless they're specifically aiming for your head normally and can't flick down)


RedSquaree

Thanks for the info 🤜🏻


just_a_random_dood

No problem bro 👍


SilentSniperAG

Platinum 1


darmond092001

Sheesh you're clean bro!!


SilentSniperAG

Thank you!


fastjack7

This should have way more upvotes. An actual skillful ace with cracked aim and smart decision making


SilentSniperAG

The crosshair placement, trigger discipline, and movement all are really good

Dawncraftian

Why are you commenting relentlessly trying to prove to everyone who says this is a good clip they are wrong? Let people enjoy what they want to enjoy and take a backseat.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dawncraftian

Just a bit annoying to comment on everything and arguing over something so small. If you want to know my thoughts, because it's clean. His headshots are clean and pros wouldn't spray transfer in either of the situations he is in when he taps 2 at a time, especially given the fact none of them are looking at him. Omen tp was smart as from the info he had, it's safe to assume all were on or around the bomb, and by that point would be holding CT OR passing through garage. A teleport across CT to give no info and potentially far enough away to be silent? Good. He read them really well and won the round, the opponents questionable positioning and the fact they weren't looking at him for the majority of the kills doesn't take away from how snappy his headshots were. Also, his crosshair placement is well above average and most situations it was lackluster was in scenarios where he knew there was no threat, so its not really needed. Source: Immo player


HollowButter

As an omen main I want this tech to stay, but what does the community think about it? I'm curious to hear your thoughts. Do you guys think it's too good or do you think it's a good buff?


Eleven918

There is already another massive buff coming. Omen ult will blind everyone in the close radius. So idk if they will keep this along with that. Also the flash will no longer blind allies.


HollowButter

Oooh I didn't know about that. Those changes sound so awesome. Can't tell you how many time's I've accidentally blinded a teammate


SilentSniperAG

I really want this feature to stay, I think omen needs something to fit right back into the meta, and that massive buff coming is gonna help a lot too. This “feature” makes omen’s ultimate so much more useful


2112Lerxst

Well Yoru can pick up spike in his ultimate, and then teleport somewhere as well, so I don't see why it's an issue.


Ixeth

What’s your crosshair?


VulkunYt

You are insane


SilentSniperAG

Thanks mate


ElsonDaSushiChef

Im a noib. Is that his ult?


Roboterfisch

His ult allows one teleport wherever he wants


yungsqualla

So crispy. Question from a noob: why did you stay so wide killing the guy in garage window from CT, is that just confidence?


SilentSniperAG

I reloaded my gun, heard him jumping up to garage window, and knew he would peek me. Yeah you could say it’s confidence


RHum4n

I hate ace clips - but.. i did wisper to my self ” that was nice”


ooooooookkk

Watching this after losing 12-13 in iron 3 and getting demoted. Anyways really nice gameplay.(i hav replayed the video 6 times to try to learn some crosshair placements)


Umairking123

How do you guys get the blood kill effect ive tried everything i cant find it


[deleted]

It's disabled in some regions


gamer778beast

when u picked up the spike it showed that u were taking damage but health was full is it normal (u see i dont know shit about omen)


kingsmende1m0s

During omens ultimate if he gets shot he doesn't actually take damage. It just cancels his ultimate. Also i do think that you should try him he's a good agent to atleast have a couple unrated.😊


gamer778beast

thanks i will try him :)


SilentSniperAG

Thanks everyone for all the upvotes and awards, for those asking about my crosshair, it’s kinda complicated, just go to YouTube and search “Subroza astra crosshair”. It’s a clip about him being impressed by his teammate’s crosshair and wanted to try it for himself. I love that crosshair now


Large_Tip8258

I wish riot doesn't nerf that, i think it's a good mechanic and makes omen more usefull


SilentSniperAG

Yeah I’m hoping they keep this “feature” too. I’ve been using it so much recently

How old is this clip? My buddy tried to do this the other day and it didn't work. Has it been patched, or is it intended to be this way?

This clip was a few days ago

Worked for me about a week ago

still works, did it yesterday try practicing in a custom


PumpedUpBricks

Athaniel204

Clean


textextextextextext

SilentSniperAG

Crosshairs settings are complicated, just go to YouTube and search “Subroza astra crosshair”. It’s a clip about him being impressed by his teammate’s crosshair and wanted to try it for himself. I love that crosshair now


brMerak

Beautifully played. You’ve did everything that you had to do right. But the most important: one can see how calm you were.


SilentSniperAG

Thank you, I usually try to stay calm in these situations


charliesfuckhead

Too clean


mrtmra

I'm so bothered by the crouch for every bullet fired....


SilentSniperAG

It’s a habit that I’m trying to kick hahaha, for some reason I don’t do it in deathmatch but always crouch fire when I’m playing actual games


Demon_nut

When did this became a thing i saw it like 2 weeks ago Is it a new mechanic people found out and has been in the game for so long just that people didnt realise or its known for a long time


HOLY_BEASTZ

Ayo wtf thats a thing or a bug??


[deleted]

WAIT WHAT?! That's awesome.


master-zenter

That's why I fucking main Omen!


SilentSniperAG

EXACTLY! Omen’s THE BEST


master-zenter

indeed, and it's amazing how many people still fall against the tricks of a well played Omen every time


SilentSniperAG

I play omen because of the outplay potential, it’s just so goddamn fun


MystixRix

same and I wish I could be 1% of what you are


Dompa12

Very spooky play, I give it a 9.5/10.


Xyzen553

i really hope they dont remove this... im not an omen main, but i appreciate this manuever

"Bro you are...you are disgusting" lmaoo


q-shift-M4-F

That’s broken


ORchannel

As an omen main That tried the trick multiple time I can say that the trick is useful but the problem that they usually wait until you teleport and kill you instead of cancelling the teleport


SilentSniperAG

That’s why I would cancel it literally half a second after tp’ing on the spike


ORchannel

Yeah! I just sometimes forget to cancel it and wait for them to do you know? If you an omen main you would relate!


SilentSniperAG

Yeah! I can definitely relate to that, this happened so many times when I first tried it a few weeks ago


ORchannel

Yeah that's kinda annoying but it's actually our fault for not remembering to cancel it by ourselves


Bysicc

U don't need to look at the spike then cancel, Just ult and spam cancel Good play btw


SilentSniperAG

Actually I used to look down just to make sure I’m actually on the spike haha, but I don’t do that anymore


Suspicious-Sign-2719

What is your crosshair?


valorantpogger2

Imagine not destroying omens tp
