i need help

hey guys. this is gonna sound stupid but i am serious. I'm peak plat 3 and currently gold but i have a dream of going pro one day i have some friends in higher ranks. and they think i can do it as far as i know I'm not the best at the game so all i can do is take their word for it but it is my dream to go pro no matter how hopeless i am. and i recently went on a 13 win streak but right after went on a 6 loss streak and my performance only getting worse. and i seriously have no clue how to fix it. so that's why I'm here if any high rated player would be willing to coach me for free since where I'm from the economy isn't in the best state and I'm 15 years old so a credit card is out of the question especially since my mother doesn't own one either. and don't even get me started on the USD exchange rate. game sense isn't really my issue I'm at a point where i can confidently predict enemy locations and rotations but for the life of me i can not seem to get positioning down. I've been committed to this game for a long time and I'm prepared to spend as much time on it as possible. I've even quit school because of how serious i am about this. so if anyone can get back to me id really appreciate it.

quiting school sounds stupid but i dont think you should play that much in a day , you should rest after like 2 3 loss so you can perform better in the next day though you serious about pro play you should warm up more than usual

well i do actually. i aim train as well. as for school i quit yes but for different reasons, involving me skipping grades. i can actually already start collage but I'm 15 so i want some more time to enjoy myself and my teenage years. so i chose Valorant. thanks for the feed back though i appreciate it. as for the coaching i guess ill just have to wait and i don't play too much in one day either i play like 2 matches and i always stop after 2 losses and just queue DM's after. the 221x is just the day streak. so I've been playing for that many days in a row. though my avg play time per day is like 4-8 hours but i havent done 8 in a while

well i have a friend that should be in radiant and i can fight him on par on most days ofc he does still destroy me but id say my only restriction as to why I'm not more consistent is my hardware and internet, and if you mean aim style then id say flicking is my best attribute. and tracking somewhere in the middle and most of my kills come from crosshair placement

so its about your setup not aim right what about your util using,

nah, ive been playing on it for over 2 years now so ive learnt to live with it and im moving in like 9 months ill get a job when i do and work towards a better setup, i can only make the setup excuse so many times yk. id say my main issue right now is positioning. i dont know how to set myself up for easier kills anymore.

well i play duelist mainly and id say my util usage is above avg for someone in gold. like when i play with my high rank friends and im on jett for example, if i want to stall out and help them get a kill or 2 i throw a 1 way smoke with jett and it works most of the time like i know when to do stuff. ive thrown myself into this game fore a very very long time now and i have maybe 2k hours in val now maybe more maybe less so util usage isnt a worry of mine honestly

i play duo/trio, sometimes 5 but i prefer not to do those. i have experience playing in a team though since i played local val tournaments. but it was really bad back then lol

as you said you like to play jett do you usually coms, like tell your teammate to do stuff so you can entry or taking space thats a part of positon too

so in the message it deleted i said: i was in a local team and we practiced comms and IGL for months before the tournament. so comms are one of my strongest fortes, so much that when im having an off game and i IGL we still win so like i said im not worried about anything else at all mainly just the way i play as an individual so like gamesense wise im probably in the asc/immo range since i can think at the lvl games progress and at the lvl my high rank friends do. but putting those thoughts into action myself is rough and thats where the plat skill lvl bleeds through, my inability to convert my thoughts in to individual actions

this is kinda complicated, i usually play with 1 more duelist to ask trade off in site first, and then tell them to hold anchor to the spikes

Join a decent team and start playing scrims as u play more and more scrim matches u will get better u wont even need coaching and also if u cant play scrim play premier it is also a good way to develop advance mechanics and gamesense.
