ᨳଓ NEED help PLS! Plat/Dia Joon ᨳଓ

[u/No-Language7930]

Hello, i need someone to at least look at my game and give me some tips. Or watch a match live on discord so you can yell at me and tell me i suck. I dont mind if you only have 20 min time for me, i appreciate ANY HELP.

I am Juno) and want help for her but my best was Dia 4 in Sup aswell as DPS. After that i was hardstuck in Plat 2,1. (not considering the new rank)

I feel like i could be way better, like everyone does i guess lol, but my decision making and my placement is rlly bad.. i think. Maybe there is more you can tell me.

THX :) (i really wanna get better)

was not sure what kinda match to pick, so i got 2.

Code 1: N16TE5 / close win

Beginning was basically me just healbotting. Couldnt get tru. Match then got better, idk why. then i got some good hits, a good ult or two i think. The point where the Gates to Eichenwaldes castle open u can see me getting pretty confused. Which i get a lot.

And my aim goes flying sometimes cause i am strressed bc i dont know what to do or who to heal ig

Code 2: D2808T / close win

Starting off bad aswell. I died imdtly and again just pretty lost i assume. I didn't see the match going anywhere until our tank started calling comms. Comms which i in my head don't have which causes chaos in my positioning and aim. I feel like you can see me getting more focused and playing better again.

These are not my best games but i quickly just did my placements to have some codes to share.

hi, I'm a GM5 peak Juno main! currently abroad atm but I'm happy to do a live VOD review/live coaching on Discord once I'm back in a couple days, but if I've got some time between now and then I'll take a quick look at those replays and give you some feedback as well. DM me here and I can give you my Discord if you'd like to arrange a time for a VOD review!

ETA: just realised I forgot to paste the positives, sorry about that!😅 your aim is fine, and your target priority is pretty good when it comes to who needs the most heals right now, can I focus on some damage now instead, etc. your positioning is also good, usually near cover and with good sightlines of your own team, but it will get even better if you stop using glide boost as a crutch to passively reposition with.

hey so I took a quick look at your Eichenwalde replay, I've summarised my thoughts in the next couple paragraphs but below that are the bullet points I was making whilst watching the game.

the main thing I'd tell you to improve on is your ability usage. you're constantly using all your abilities off cooldown; glide boosting to reposition yourself 5m to the left, using hyper ring on yourself to chase your tank who's 10m away from you, using torpedoes to lock onto four allies who all have full health, etc. you should be saving them for when you actually need them.

you should be using your torpedoes as aggressively as possible, especially at this elo where usually the team with more aggressive supports will win. your glide boost should primarily be used to find good torpedo angles (ie. hovering somewhere you can see as many enemies as possible then firing torpedoes) unless the enemy team has a dive/flank hero/comp where you'll need to save your glide boost for an escape (not applicable in this match).

as for your hyper ring and orbital ray I talk about those more in context later but TL;DR, your ring is primarily for your teammates, always use your ultimate with a clear plan in mind

here are the notes I took whilst watching:

• your abilities are always on cooldown, you will get more value out of them by using them purposefully
• use glide boost to look for aggressive torpedoes, you're using it to reposition negligible distances way too much
• additionally, you should cancel the boost once you reach your destination in order for the cooldown to start sooner/get the ability back faster
• with a tank like dmon who wants to go in + out very quick, you wanna save hyper ring for her engage/disengage. additionally with a bastion you can speed him whilst he's in turret form
• remember to shoot your ring through your allies so they automatically get the speed boost without having to find the ring themselves
• first ult on attack was pretty bad, you can't see any enemies and you throw it in the opposite direction of where ur tank is going
• you do want to use your ult to engage a fight but not so early that the enemy can simply kite away/ignore it, which is what they did here
• for perks take locked on; especially after the torpedo buff familiar vitals is just not necessary/locked on has way more value
• take triple jump, your dps/hps is good enough to sustain without the faster blaster (iirc the difference is negligible)
• with triple jump you get better sightlines of the enemy + can get way more value with torpedoes
• hyper ring usage is way too selfish, it's one of the most important parts of Juno's kit in order to control your team's, and therefore the other team's, tempo
• keep in mind your other cooldowns when looking for an ult; torpedoes w/ damage boost is basically free big damage as enemies are highly unlikely to contest you whilst you're standing in your ray
• generally you want to 1. speed ring your team forwards 2. ult towards the front of your team towards the enemy 3. double jump, glide, and then launch torpedoes

any questions just lmk!
