Miyagi aim training could be what unlocks your next Valorant rank
Do you ever see your high-skilled teammates click enemy heads and wish that you could do the same? Turns out, recklessly shooting bots in practice isn’t always enough to get you there.
One of the most convenient ways to train aim is to hop in practice range and shoot at bots. However, players often take the timer too seriously, which counters the true purpose of the training. Crisp aim can be achieved by slow and deliberate practice, according to the Miyagi method.
The Miyagi method of aim training is a new learning style in Valorant that is all about sharpening muscle memory by adopting new habits. While it’s a world-famous method of learning adapted from pop culture, YouTuber Red popularized it in Valorant. The rules and basic ideas of Miyagi align much with any healthy practice regime.
This method was initially introduced in the Karate Kid movie. Teenage protagonist Daniel was assigned a series of unrelated menial tasks like waxing a car and painting a fence by his teacher, Mr. Miyagi. The teacher prepared him to deliberately understand fundamentals and improve naturally over time.
In Valorant, the implication of this method is simple. You hop into aim training, but you don’t just shoot right away. Here’s how the Miyagi method works in Valorant.
How the Miyagi method works in Valorant
To improve your crosshair placement, hop into the practice range and shoot the moving bots instead of the stationary ones. There’s rarely an instance in ranked games where you dual with still agents. After warming up your hands with moving bots, enter a deathmatch. This is where you hold yourself back from the urge to shoot and concentrate on fixing your crosshair placement.
In deathmatch, equip a one-tap weapon like the Guardian. Instead of shooting at enemies, keep your crosshair on their heads and hold fire. Keep tracking moving enemies until you feel that you can reliably keep your crosshair trained on your opponents’ heads. When you feel like you’ve adjusted, switch to weapons like the Phantom and Vandal and start shooting. Keep doing this daily in deathmatch, and you’ll eventually find it easier to aim at the head.
This method won’t only fix your crosshair placement but will also teach you “trigger discipline,” which can be important in a game like Valorant. Understanding when to shoot and when to hold your fire can save you from many lost duels.
Players often miss their shots in Valorant due to the game’s flawed RNG, which is why reckless sprays aren’t recommended. You want to place your aim on the head to secure a kill in your first few shots. Miyagi could help you get better aiming and just getting kills in ranked games.
