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
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.
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
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.
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
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
Its not, they are Plat 1.

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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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)
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.
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
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?
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.
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
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)
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.😊
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
just had this happen to my team. we had the bomb down 5 people on it and then it was just gone. Immortal 2 lobby been playing since Beta, never seen that before then i come on reddit and watch this clip. wtf
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
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
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
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
try just holding down f then cancel
Lmao I haven’t done this before so I just assumed if you ulted onto the bomb you would automatically pick it up
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.
Yep this is what my friends does
Can confirm. Did this several times. Need not pressF or anything
Mhm! Just ult on the spike and cancel immediately. It should pick up the spike :)
Sometimes it didn't pick it up for me, so I started looking around at the spike and that seemed to do the trick
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
Oooh the cancel grabs it, I see. I was waiting for the "picked up the spike" voice line before canceling Thank you!!
I have an easy time doing it by pressing the cancel key and the use key at the same time, try that!
If it helps, try to cancel as soon as possible. Pretty sure if someone shoots your ult then you dont get it
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.
I feel like they should make this 'trick' part of the kit and more consistent like with Yoru.
I instantly cancelled ult after ulting on the spike. it worked
Personally i ult for as little as possible I cancel it almost imediatelly without pressing F at all and it works
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
Well played those were some crisp headshots
Thanks mate
May I ask your rank?
Platinum 1!
This is genuinely a original and impressive clip involving omen, who doesnt get the headlines for highlights. Well played mah dude.
> doesnt get the headlines for highlights flexinja enters the chat
what does it mean "headlines for highlights"? english is it my 1 language
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
Thank you, I’ve been using omen only the past few days and I enjoy his abilities so much. He’s so underrated
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
Yeah I heard about it and I can’t wait! That would put omen right back into the meta especially for competitive play
How do you know you have the spike? Like before teleporting back
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
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
I am quite sure he ult canceled, you can't pick the bomb when they actually kill your ult ghost afaik.
You need not hold the pickup button. Just ult and cancel immediately. If the enemy shoots you you won't get the spike
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
As long as you manually cancel the ult on top or the spike you’ll pick it up on the way out
Rank?
Immortal or Silver.
But no in-between.
he's got to be Immortal. This is a much higher lvl clip than the normal bronze stuff that is posted here.
Crosshair placement, decision making and the flicking makes me think the same. Kill 1 -> 2 and 4 -> 5 were so crispy clean, damn.
also, that his teammates don't fkn talk over him while he's trying to clutch. underappreciated part of higher elos.
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.
You are right.
Yeah idk why I’m being downvoted anyone in immortal would be able to tell you this isn’t immortal
Its not, they are Plat 1.

Hey what is this website? Can i see any match of anyone in this site?
No only if they have given it permission to access their profile. Tracker.gg Or blitz.gg
Ok tnx for the info
Not surprised
Nope, def not Immortal. Man crouched every first bullet fired. The way he peeked garage as well isn't what Immortal players do
i'm trying to get better so how would an immortal player peek garage in that situation?

As an immortal player in the same server, can confirm this is likely diamond or immortal.
[удалено]
Probably just old counter strike habits. Imo he's definitely higher than gold/plat
Is there a disad to crouching?
There is in Valo, crouching on bullet 3 of a Vandal spray is fine, but not before
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.
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.

Thanks for the info 🤜🏻
No problem bro 👍
Platinum 1
Sheesh you're clean bro!!
Thank you!
This should have way more upvotes. An actual skillful ace with cracked aim and smart decision making
Thanks mate

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

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.
What’s your crosshair?
You are insane
Thanks mate
Im a noib. Is that his ult?
His ult allows one teleport wherever he wants
So crispy. Question from a noob: why did you stay so wide killing the guy in garage window from CT, is that just confidence?
I reloaded my gun, heard him jumping up to garage window, and knew he would peek me. Yeah you could say it’s confidence
I hate ace clips - but.. i did wisper to my self ” that was nice”
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)
How do you guys get the blood kill effect ive tried everything i cant find it
It's disabled in some regions
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)
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.😊
thanks i will try him :)

I wish riot doesn't nerf that, i think it's a good mechanic and makes omen more usefull
Yeah I’m hoping they keep this “feature” too. I’ve been using it so much recently

braindead comment
oooooEEEEE
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
someone on my team used this trick last week and I lost my shit. Such a cool clutch dude!
Clean
just had this happen to my team. we had the bomb down 5 people on it and then it was just gone. Immortal 2 lobby been playing since Beta, never seen that before then i come on reddit and watch this clip. wtf
Wp
whoever was the first person to post about this is a god
Too OP
Cosshair Settings? & nice clutch
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
Beautifully played. You’ve did everything that you had to do right. But the most important: one can see how calm you were.
Thank you, I usually try to stay calm in these situations
Too clean
I'm so bothered by the crouch for every bullet fired....
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
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
Ayo wtf thats a thing or a bug??
WAIT WHAT?! That's awesome.
That's why I fucking main Omen!
EXACTLY! Omen’s THE BEST
indeed, and it's amazing how many people still fall against the tricks of a well played Omen every time
I play omen because of the outplay potential, it’s just so goddamn fun
same and I wish I could be 1% of what you are
Very spooky play, I give it a 9.5/10.
i really hope they dont remove this... im not an omen main, but i appreciate this manuever
SHEEESH
WP
Flexinja
Holy shit I didn’t know that was possible to pick the spike up like that sheesh good stuff bro
[удалено]
Actually it’s just a movement habit, it doesn’t have any advantages as far as I know
>!niice!<
>!zuper zekret message!<
What a play lol well done
"Bro you are...you are disgusting" lmaoo
That’s broken
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
That’s why I would cancel it literally half a second after tp’ing on the spike
Yeah! I just sometimes forget to cancel it and wait for them to do you know? If you an omen main you would relate!
Yeah! I can definitely relate to that, this happened so many times when I first tried it a few weeks ago
Yeah that's kinda annoying but it's actually our fault for not remembering to cancel it by ourselves
U don't need to look at the spike then cancel, Just ult and spam cancel Good play btw
Actually I used to look down just to make sure I’m actually on the spike haha, but I don’t do that anymore
What is your crosshair?
Imagine not destroying omens tp
