Before a competitive game, it’s important for a gamer to warm up their aim. A good warm-up can help you get better at aiming, staying focused, and reacting quickly. In this blog post, we’ll talk about a common way for gamers to warm up that will help you get those nice one-taps. This guide is for people who are new to the game and are having trouble getting their aim right. Although it will depend on how frequently new aiming techniques are introduced, we’ll try to post an aiming guide once a week.
Git Gud: The Ultimate Valorant Aiming Guide or Beginners!
First, let’s look at a Valorant player named “Red” and how he warms up.
Let’s start with settings and the crosshair. How fast your cursor moves on the screen will depend on the sensitivity setting you choose. Red is a well-known gamer, and his mouse has 0.244 and 800 dpi.

You can use his settings as they are or change them to fit your needs. How you want your crosshair to look is up to you. Red likes a crosshair that is clear and doesn’t get in the way of his view.


Now that you know how to set up your gun and where the crosshair is, you should go to the practice range. You don’t need third-party software like AimLabs/Kovacs to get your aim ready; you can use the practice range and deathmatch mode.
The Ultimate Valorant Aiming Guide or Beginners!
Here are the steps to warm up:
Choose a Sensitivity that works for you
Choosing a mouse sensitivity setting for the first time will affect how quickly the cursor moves across the screen. It’s important to pick a sensitivity level that feels good to you and lets you move your cursor with precision. Your choice of crosshair is also a matter of taste. Red likes a crosshair that is clear and doesn’t get in the way of his view.
Start with easy bots on the practice range. Aim for the head

The target range is a great place to get your aim ready. First, open the buy-menu and buy a Sheriff.
Make sure to turn on unlimited ammo and set the bots’ speed to easy. Aim down the middle of the column and start responding to where the bots are coming from.
Put the head in your crosshairs and shoot. Try not to miss any shots, and put your crosshair on the head.
As soon as you feel comfortable, add movement to your warm-up routine. Good movement is important in the game, and practicing it during your warm-up will help you in deathmatch.
Move on to medium bots and work on how quickly you can respond.

Move on to the medium bots when you feel comfortable with the easy ones. You will have less time to act because of the bots, so it will be harder. Don’t give up if you miss or the bot goes away before you can shoot it. It’s important to make sure that your crosshair is over the head of the bot. If you do this every day before you play, you will make a lot of progress.
Do 50 bots with the Guardian gun in strafe mode.

Doing 50 bots in strafe mode is the last part of the practice range warm-up. Use the Guardian gun, which can hit the head with a single shot from any distance. Use your crosshair to find the bot’s head before you shoot. Keep your crosshair on the bot head for about 5 seconds when shooting the first few bots. Red tells a lot of people to use the Guardian because it is a good way to train your aim and not rely so much on spray control.
In deathmatch, use the Guardian and the Sheriff to track players’ heads using the Miyagi method.

Now that you’ve finished practicing on the range, it’s time to move on to the Miyagi method. Don’t buy the Phantom or the Vandal when you spawn in a deathmatch. Buy the Guardian and the Sheriff instead. You can’t miss with these two guns, so you have to aim for the head. The Miyagi method is all about putting your gun on players’ heads and following them. Don’t try to get any kills. Make sure your crosshair is always on the player. This is just to get you used to tracking your opponent’s head while their moving.
If you want to get better at Valorant, you need to warm up your aim. Many gamers use Red’s warm-up routine as a way to improve their aim, focus, and speed of reaction. You can make a big difference in how well you play by changing your sensitivity settings, picking the right crosshair, and practicing in the practice range and deathmatch mode. Remember that being able to move well and track other players’ heads are important parts of the game. Including these skills in your warm-up will help you in the long run.
