The player who made it all the way from Silver to Platinum revealed that they tried “countless” guides and tips from other VALORANT coaches and said nothing but Woohoojin’s tips worked for them.

The player acknowledged, though, that they had to also do their part such as focusing on getting better, noticing the mistakes being committed in every game and working on them, paying attention to comms and relaying good information, and learning how to play specific agents.
