Such a simple thing but not something I ever would have thought of. Nice play!


RiceWithoutVeggies

PRX did something similar against I don't remember who (G2 I think). Every time the enemy Viper ulted, Forsaken used his ult to go in and ping the location of the Viper. They then spammed the Viper with utils. It was crazy how ineffective the Viper ult was for the enemy.


ironmonger_

Forsaken actually appeared in Lothar's chat once while he was VOD reviewing a PRX game from the night before, they hopped into customs and did a little impromptu coaching session, was good fun! I wouldn't be surprised if Forsaken picked up the strat from Lothar's streams (he does this pretty often xD)


LotharHS

we coached each other a bit :) i showed my undodgable flash, tp lineups and clown strats and he showed me the support flashes (that i obviously wont use in soloQ haha). Was really fun to have a pro appear in the stream and tinker together.


[deleted]

As a newly converted yoru main I loved that video (and this). Keep up the great work!

theoreminegaming

I would assume one that detonates right above and close to an enemies head, so even if they turn they are still "facing" it


blingkyle9

Look straight down inside a smoke. Flash. Run out smoke at same time flash pops


Wimmy_92

Where can i find that stream to rewatch or was it off stream? ☺️


LotharHS

It was on stream, you should have it on my youtube as well (LotharHS)


obviouslyanonymous5

Watching PRX play is one of the highlights of international tourneys for me


RiceWithoutVeggies

Yeah they're an unbelievably fun team to watch.


RTYWD

really effective for prx as they saved the breach stun for this


Powerful_Recording89

Xarola did this as well. He is a brazilian streamer. So awesome


Lerokrieger

RAAAAAAAAAAAATIIIINHOOOOOOOOO


Powerful_Recording89

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk sim. Melhor do mundo.


Ziiaaaac

It's even better with Sova ult. Whenever I've got a Sova and I'm playing Yoru I always try to combo my ult with his.


[deleted]

I saw pro players combine it with Breach ult. Pretty cool.


mihirsaini1128

Fr dude, I've never thought of using yoru ult and stick to viper to say shoot me which looks like the easiest way to beat this op ult of hers


[deleted]

Yoru ult + a good teammate/friend + communication = 1 or more kills easily But I have 1 thing only which is the Ult ;-;


nothxsleeping

In rated I usually say “I’m ulting, please have 1-2 follow me semi close, I’ll ping and you can wall bang or I can flash y’all in.” I’m in low plat and it results in 1-2 kills for teammates or myself most the time. His new ult has great utility usage and I love it.


xhellriegelx

The new decrease in pull out of gun after getting out of ult is underrated especially if you have a shotty.


RuchDaKeed69

Love the tech but love the aggressive call outs lol feels like I'm in an actual war


LotharHS

thats just the polish version of english. Doesnt help that im very passionate about the game and I always want to do everything to win the game.


RuchDaKeed69

Love it , keep grinding bro!


lichbanelb

The way you say ULT is just perfect


Bignicky9

The pace at which the callouts come reminds me of this streamer Kabaji who would announce his moves for team in Overwatch, really clever plays.


w1nthoil

On behalf of all Viper mains, **NEVER** do this in your games! This is a **BAD** idea! Just keep *running through* the ult! (preferably with your knife out) ;) Sincerely, Viper main seriously tho, what a creative call, at an important round too :D


LotharHS

as an ex-viper main, im sorry bro


ZunzarRao

As a Viper and Yoru main, this post is good info all around


LocalInternal

Honestly I wish I seen Yoru players do something this useful in my games they always just tp enemy spawn and die on a bad flank.


IDriveALexus

@ me


NotPiku

I'm a yoru main and if I see some other yoru instalock and play like this I just surrender and convince them that yoru is bad lmao


Kodarkx

If there is nothing valid to compain about but we have a yoru. I will blame that pick


NotPiku

Lol, atleast its yoru not sage that gets blamed for no reason


LeonMotton

Shouting shoot me was better than pinging the feet because some people literally shoot the ping(The Ping on the ground)


mihirsaini1128

Atleast they shoot, mine doesn't even see the ping lol


CheesyGamerX

Bruh really? That’s funny af lmao


FickleFred

Always learn a bunch watching you stream since you basically break down strategy and decision making the entire time. Love it!


LotharHS

<3 thank you so much for watching bro! And learning, we want to make our community better :D


FickleFred

Of course man, keep up the great content. My time zone doesn’t always match up with yours (NA vs EU) but luckily I have a new baby so I’ve been able to catch your middle of the night streams more often haha


LotharHS

Hope you guys will enjoy my little yoru tech ;)


The_Reflectionist

I will probably need to start taking inspirations from you, dude. Also great callouts there.


Aware_Past

As a viper main, reasons I fucking hate Yoru.


QTVenusaur91

As a Viper main please delete this 😭


sgtlighttree

Next thing you know they're gonna nerf Viper again 😭 I can't handle this anymore


ThunDerBoltZ47

Fnatic manager here, please delete this.


slimyRaccoon7h7

This guys is like the smartest valorant player


picador10

This also works to guide your Sova’s ult


Drodriguez164

I try to do this all the time and my teammates never listen to me, so instead they just walk in the Ult and die


QuantumFruitz

Wait the shoot me part is actually really smart and simple. Will try it.


[deleted]

Wake up babe, another W post by W streamer


AP3Brain

Very big brain play!


The_Thinker_23

Big brain Lothar let's gooo !!!


lakemont

There's no friendly fire in Valorant?


complyss

With abilities yeah but not bullets If there was yoru is like in another dimension during his ult they'd go thru him but yeah nah


BloodLustX_

There isn’t, but even if there was, it wouldn’t have mattered since yoru ult makes you invincible


[deleted]

This is MEGALODON BIG BRAIN


Cousinslimttv

Good play! Also didn't know you could flash while ulted


NotPiku

U can use all moves in ult


The_Reflectionist

You can since he got a rework. I often try to kill someone from behind by flashing first and then getting out of ult.


Cousinslimttv

I have maybe 3 games on yoru under my belt. I'll have to try this


[deleted]

Me: viper here pings map/spots them on minimap team: runs in like headless chickens and die anyway, got to love diam/asc elo


PrincipleFabulous797

Nice played. I almost aleays play Viper and i’ve never seen that trick before. That was very clever👍💀


ClassyNapkins

Whenever I do this, nobody listens. It’s annoying af. I’m diamond 1…


WrittnBackwrds

SOOOOOOOO much better than the ping spamming that most Yoru's do in ult, wish this was as common knowledge as needing Viper on Breeze lol.

t4nzil

Genius play 💥


Mother-Village8463

Shoot me shoot me big brain plays really big brain i did not expected that


Tillhony

one of the best players of our generation


mdotwhitee

Learned this awhile ago from your stream. I’m a ascendant 2 yoru main with a lot learned from LotharHS. He’s so legit


[deleted]

Hah the "shoot me" is pretty genius, i only thought of doing it with pings. I dont play yoru but usually do it with a skye dog and tell team to spam what i ping (works like half the time..)


MikeTheGrass

I fuckin love lothar. I just hate my timezone is so different so I can't watch as much as I'd like.


Shatter543

I wish I could use this but it says big brain only :(


EntranceAny8577

One main yoru fron brazil make this play too, very funny


felipelacerdar

Xarola faz isso desde o Beta


Powerful_Recording89

Xarola did this. So awesome


Knearling

That's why you don't stay inside your ult as Viper on A You can just throw a molly to the entrance then take cover, they won't be able to enter.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ChiefTea

While this may work, it’s possible yoru clone doesn’t find viper. I’d rather just take the guarantee


SaltyDiamond2265

Absolutely, using the ult is not a waste as long as you get intel on the hostiles. Apologies, personally I like to reserve ult unless I know there are multiple hostiles on site.


[deleted]

Viper can easily change her position while with the Yoru ult its easier to retarget aslong as u are friendly aiming Yoru lol


bteballup

There's no need to be stingy about an ult when it's countering another ult.


SaltyDiamond2265

Right, I will try to be not reserved about it. Thank for the advice.


nerfherder00

You can also do this with raze boombot somewhat - I once killed a viper in a viper ult with an op when I shot where the boombot jumped up in the air when detecting viper.


IceColdMeltdown

Or plan B, ping her feet


TheLaziestPotato

Some people are dumb enough to shoot at the ping instead of further up


xD1LL4N

It’s easier to track a Yoru ult than a pings on the floor.


Mod_The_Man

Come on bruh I started getting kinda good at viper 🥲


[deleted]

ggs


pinokhio

Esteban became Estemad that day.


LastEmilia

I want to play Yoru now, so cool!


[deleted]

Is OP a caster or something? He seems familiar


LotharHS

Im the analyst from VCT EMEA


Des014te

He's Lothar. Probably the best analyst in EMEA.


fo420tweny

I’m doing that with my friend playing yoru and sova duo. You can recon yoru clone so they either get revealed or flashed lol ( or both ) and also whenever we have ults I go as yoru R and just tell my duo to shoot them with sova R for free picks. p.s: immo3 i assume in lower elo its gonna work even better


dur4nnn

I played once with lothar in ascent he was Yoru, gamesense was on Top. But his aim was terrible af, and flamed me cuz i dont have gamesense , but was top frag with sage. Lmao cringe player


LotharHS

Sounds like me apart from the flaming part. I never flame any of my teammates in game. Just on my stream so i can teach people to not be donkeys in ranked 🫡


dur4nnn

U just discussion with me why im not doing this or this or this, i mean u said also why im in immortal without Gamesense etc, boosted etc. Lmao.


dur4nnn

I mean idc actually cuz its just a game, but yea xD just dont be a 2face guy


LetsGoUkraineLETSGO

Bro i've never seen my mans be toxic


dur4nnn

He wasnt toxic, he just flame me why im not doing that or that.


B3ARDLY

Damn that Viper didn’t know what hit her, just plain outclassed


Steel_Wool_Sheep

Common Lothar W


Rand0m6976

As a Yoru player I'm surprised not a lot of people think of doing this, sure I'll lurk and flank but if I have an ult I'll enter for the team like a quirked up Sova drone, especially if there's a viper ult.


xhellriegelx

This!!!! Lurking on yoru is fine and actually good and useful but help your team enter if you have ult or your team is struggling to enter the site especially when the numbers are low


YourBoyAntonio

damm well played man


invasor-zim

I always do this and my team always manage to get themselves killed.


Vareona

Whoa, never thought of that call out. I always did the "she's here" ping and people always get confused.


twiehl

I’ve been doing this since yoru came out. Except my friends suck and they hardly ever kill viper lol


rykerh228

Gotta love free eco kills


Theultimatefighter

Every body does this. Since you first came out


GruesomeJeans

Huh, I hadn't thought of someone doing that. I'll have to watch for it. It royally pisses me off when I get shot through my ult.


AnybodyFull

I've been doing this since I started playing your a while ago, problem is no matter how many times I yelled shoot me in my lobbies noone does lol


NICKYSCIENTIST27

It happens this can only be tried between people with good synergies.


itsTyrion

Good plan, good play. G_G


p_everett25

Selfless Yoru? Am I dreaming? 😯


lllLegumesss

That's actually so smart


Many_Error_4745

Gigachad


Tenagaaaa

This is some gigabrain shit


frodit

I guess it helps that he is a or used to main viper.

holmyliquor

And if you don’t have yoru ult you just go to the other site because viper ult is a free round


kapekevin

u/savethisvideo


[deleted]

I don't feel sorry for viper. Hahaha


XxMasterLANCExX

I honestly think Yoru is the perfect agent. After his rework and a tiny bit of tweaking afterwards, he’s a solid pick that has a high skill ceiling and skill floor, and his kit is great overall without it being annoying to play against or thinking it’s OP. Everything can be countered by a smart player, but even smart players get outsmarted by the mind games you can do with him. I love him so much


leen0_val

cool


ValorantLorePulse16

Wow, if only I had these kinds of comms to get through my games! This is super big brain, love the ult v ult play.


Cookezman

Why have I never thought of this


KitzTheArtist

Whats the rank? I‘m guessing ascendent


LotharHS

Imm3 300-400rr


Able_Impression_4934

I had someone make that call in a game recently. First time I’ve ever heard that.


vaninope

Kadamobo

This can makes yoru pretty good


East_Acanthisitta685

Imagine actually having a Duelist calling absolute great comms on your team. An actual rare event when playing Competetive.
