Hey all, just wanted to make it crystal clear we've made our latest Haven Playbook free to the public as it's out of rotation.
For the paid-subs we're working on an Icebox Playbook currently, so keep your eyes peeled :)
2024-02-04 20:20:21 +0000 UTC View PostSecond attempt at recording this. Slight tech issue at 5 mins but its sorted 2 mins later
Thanks for all the questions hopefully you enjoy the answers
2024-02-03 00:09:17 +0000 UTC View PostOur plan was to release the AMA today as a 2hour+ video (which we did record but *somebody*'s voice wasn't being recorded, so we'll have to re-record later in the week).
The next playbook is a meta-comp Icebox, we are testing a designer to help out whilst Mini is busy coaching but hopefully will be able to release later this week!
Apologies for delays!!
2024-01-28 17:46:03 +0000 UTC View PostWe'll probably try to film the AMA tomorrow so get your questions in (use this post or post below)

Thought we'd try out an "ask us anything", we'll probably respond with a video together.
Feel free to ask us both -- or individually -- about anything: can be VALORANT or IRL!
Just drop the questions in the comments below and we'll be as honest as we can be :)

Hey all, here's the Cheatsheets for the latest Playbook.
We decided to not include the "Double Orb Default" and "Do Nothing Defaults" for Attack to make the Cheatsheet a bit cleaner (Do Nothing shouldn't be too hard to remember anyway :D!).
If there are any Playbooks you wanna see, let us know!

With the off-season closing up Sentinel's gave us the gift of a fantastic Bind Playbook for us to get inspired by (and add a thing or two!).
In the current meta Yoru is no joke (a great Cypher counter), especially on Bind where he was already finding value.
The highlights of Yoru is that it enables the "standard Bind comp" to play a very dynamic Defence built around Yoru's flexibility. For Attack we get an agent that can solo-pressure showers (and be ready for a B hit 2seconds lat...
2024-01-14 19:28:58 +0000 UTC View PostThe winner of our first giveaway got a mini + sliggy VOD review from one of their recent praccs. We thought we'd upload it for anyone that missed out.
We broke down their Viper Harbor Haven gameplay quite extensively whilst also gave input into the less-talked about side: comms, leadership, and generally running an unsigned team.
Let us know if you'd like more of this style of content!
P.S. Will add an unlisted YouTube link too so it's a bit more accessible too
**PLAYBOOK ATTACHED VIA PDF AT BOTTOM OF THIS POST!**
**ABOVE: CHEATSHEETS - A condensed version of the Playbook!**
The much awaited Haven Viper Playbook inspired by G2's Omen/Viper is here :)
Credit to Sliggy for the Playbook name; as suggested our Attack gameplan is to keep Viper (the VIP) alive. On Defence you can get away with Defaulting most rounds (detailed gameplan on Page5) with some Jett OP mixups / Ult setups.
Any feedback/suggestions let us know. Have fun! 2023-12-30 15:18:40 +0000 UTC View Post
Just wanted to check in as we know we've been posting a little less regularly the past few weeks, there will be some news soon as to why but we do have upcoming content over the coming weeks! We appreciate you hanging on tight :)

Comp: Yoru Kayo Sova Viper Cypher
Whilst this may seem like one of the more cookin' comps, we think that Yoru is going to become one of the staple duelists on Breeze next year, so we have tried to cook up some of our own ideas whilst also drawing inspriation from current Yoru teams.
Yoru is a fantastic entry on attack, able to dive into deep space. On Defence he is great at taking duels, getting OP picks, and fast rotating (very handy on a wide map!).
For Ults we mostly reco...

Comp: Phoenix Iso Sova Omen Killjoy
Hey y'all, this week we're bringing you another Iso Playbook. Changing from the standard Jett/KAYO to a Phoenix/Iso opens up a lot of combinations that will catch off teams on this very standardized (boring!) map.
Any feedback let us know!
Cheatsheets will be up tomorrow.
Good luck + have fun :)
Here's the Cheatsheet for the Sunset Iso Trap Comp Playbook!
5 pages... Sliggy cooked up a feast this week (sorry? not sorry? idk!)
Have fun :)
2023-11-10 12:19:33 +0000 UTC View PostComp: Iso Breach Sova Astra Cypher
Sliggy is determined to prove Iso's strength to the world so has cooked up some combos for Sunset (and we'll see some more in the upcoming weeks!)
This Playbook is focused on Trap Plays on Defence using combinations of the buffed Astra Stun, Breach Aftershock/Stun, Iso Undercut, and Sova shocks. We also get some buffed Cypher action!
As always, any feedback/problems let us know! And apologies for the slight delay.
Cheatsheets will be ...
2023-11-09 19:17:00 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
We're probably gunna be a *little* late on the Sunset Playbook this week, should be able to get it out tomorrow. We'll be working through the night to try to get it finished.
Sliggy had a brutal schedule with Redbull and Mini's become a streaming sensation -- apologies!
Sliggy's been cookin' up some ISO (if that doesn't sound like your thing then feel free to use the last playbook!)
With Premier back on again we'll be mostly focusing back onto that!
Expect new playbooks weeks 2-4 focused around ISO, leaning into creativity around the new patches.

SCHEDULE
Week 1 Split: Will make sure there's a Cheatsheet for previous Playbook! (no new playbook)
Weeks 2-4 Sunset, Ascent, Breeze: Sliggy has been cookin' up some ISO Playbook ideas.
We will also make sure there's a Cheatsheet for previous Playbooks if ISO isn't your thing!

Our second Ranked Duos Guide is a KAYO KJ combo for Ascent Defence. There are a lot of simple but effective trap setups you can do that work at low level, all the way up to VCT. We'll probably use this duo in our ranked streams to show just how easy some of the ideas are! :)

Hey y'all
We're gunna make a detailed FAQ resource as we get asked similar questions a lot, so please submit some questions! I think it would be good for us to expand and edit it over time. Feel free to reply here or on the Twitter post (below)!
Examples:
How to improve as an IGL?
How to get into Coaching?
Why did we make our first free guide around Gekko when both of us hate him with a deep-seated passion?
Note: The images above are the "Cheatsheet" designed to be used on second monitor/printed for a quick overview of the ideas. Below is the PDF with the full guide with POV videos and details :)
This is our first Duo Ranked Guide! Our intention is to bring some joy back into ranked by allowing you to focus on playing the game with your Duo (especially if your teammates aren't receptive!). Our first duo is the whimsical duo of Gekko and Brimstone.

We have taken inspiration from EDG's comp at ONE INVITATIONAL:
Raze Fade Omen Viper Chamber
Sliggy has been chillin' in LA -- immersing himself in the world of Sunset + cookin' up some innovations.
Any feedback let us know!

Congrats to @czechers6 for winning our first give-away :)
A little belated, but they won themselves:
1 x Imperium Bundle
1 x VOD review of your Premier team
If they give us permission, we'll post the review publicly... which will likely be our first VOD review! (and maybe the first time you'll get to hear mini + sliggy argue :D)
P.S. Remember there's still a give-away going currently for 5x 1MONTH FREE MEMBERSHIP!
Here's the Cheatsheet this week for the Viper Doubledive on Split! Couldn't get it down less than 4 pages, but hope it's still useful!
Any q's then let us know :)
[EDIT] I've noticed some patchy colours on these, will look into it for next week!
2023-10-12 15:05:37 +0000 UTC View PostHey gang!
Comp this week: Jett Raze Skye Omen Viper
A very slight twist on the standard Split comp (Omen instead of Astra) inspired partly by DRX's Split at ONE INVITATIONAL (and the recent Astra nerfs). It is a comp that is easy to understand; Viper is gunna hold mid on Defence and we're gunna do explosive execs on Attack.
Any questions then let us know! Any mistakes in the doc then let us know!
Best of luck this week :)

Comp: Jett Kayo Sova Omen Killjoy (big surprise!)
If you have any questions then let us know, we'd be happy to answer :)
Good luck on the server!

Something we haven't made clear before is that we're very open to answering any questions on the playbooks or the maps each week, so let us know if you have any!
Apologies it is a little late this week; Sliggy has been away and Mini has been busy. There might be a mistake or two in the doc as it was a bit rushed, so let us know if you notice anything! 2023-09-28 16:29:59 +0000 UTC View Post
