Most players blame their aim when they're stuck in Gold or Plat. But 90% of the time, it's not your mechanics — it's your positioning.

I've coached dozens of players across Valorant, CS2, and Apex, and the pattern is always the same:

They take fights they don't need to take.

You peek an angle with no info. You wide-swing when your team isn't trading. You hold an off-angle for 30 seconds, get antsy, and rotate into a crossfire.

Here's a simple fix that works in any FPS:

Before every round, ask yourself: "Where do I die for free?"

If you're standing somewhere where the enemy can kill you without your team getting a trade — move. That's it. One question. You'll survive 2-3 more rounds per half just from this alone.

Position > Aim. Always.
