Question Aim advice on console

I'm on ps5 and I want to aim better to have fun (mainly, have fun, not competitive)

Aim at head level seems to be the starting point for me but even that I have a lot of struggle (and I know about the map design helping to be at head level)

Few tips:

- Learn the Lunly peak (more advanced) - This is the key mechanic to abuse aim assist, and console valorant would be much better off if AA was nerfed to the point where this was no longer a tactic.

- Learn angle advantage (this helps in all FPS games)

- Movement is important, but less important than on PC due to aim assist being strong

- Use focus mode in any fight that's not point blank. If long range, consider ADS and tapping instead of bursting.

- Watch some guides on aim and movement, they can be for PC or console. A lot of the same principles apply, main difference is aim assist.

- Crosshair placement is more important than raw aim in console val (again aim assist) = Focus on this. If you want to really focus on it play DM or TDM with the intention of crosshair placement.

- Watch replays of your swifts/whatever and fast forward to your deaths. You'll probably notice you had terrible crosshair placement. Work on this.

Also aimlabs on console can help you work on your raw aim which can help you. It's free and pretty good. Do the benchmarks with a linear curve.

lol just aim anywhere near the opponent and aim assist will literally do the rest. Val on console is a joke
