Where to Look When Aiming in Valorant (like Tenz & minigod)

Summary

The video discusses where to focus your eyes while aiming in Valorant, comparing advice from pro player TenZ and pro aimer Minigod. Neither target focus nor crosshair focus is always best:

• Focus on your crosshair at long distances or when the enemy is easy to hit, such as when their movement is predictable or poor. Use your peripheral vision to track the target.
• Focus on the target at close range or against difficult-to-hit targets. This can help you read their movement and guide your crosshair toward them.

The video also recommends pausing for an extra second before taking an angle if you expect a fight. This brief pause gives you time to prepare for possible outcomes, which may lead to cleaner peeks, better timing, and more consistent aim. If you don’t expect an enemy, moving quickly to take space may be appropriate.
