CAStarted Plat 3 ended D2, but confident to hit Ascendant Enjoyed the 1on1 coaching the most, very easy to figure out what the problems are as an individual player. The notes from the VODs help and able to go back to and achieve these goals that are written down. Really helpful to identify these goals from the coaches and sometimes it can be hard to figure out what is going wrong. Even though I didn't hit the 5 rank up yet I’m confident I will hit it within some time. IRP gave me the tools to get to that point. Coaches do a great job and focusing on how we can fix these problems, coordinating in post plants as an example, using the scrims to really point that out and review it with coaches helped me a lot. Also being with like minded people and also higher elo players helps a lot in the learner process. The live coaching is also a fantastic way to ask questions about the relevant subjects. The drills are amazing to get reps on concepts core the game while being able to get feedback live.

GBWorth the investment I just finished the 8 week program, having joined for season 17 of IRP. As a lifelong gamer who mostly plays games for fun to unwind, every so often a game comes along that really scratches my competitive itch, and Valorant falls squarely in that category for me. Since I started playing in the fall of 2022, I’ve consistently worked to learn the game and improve, mostly through watching youtube videos and various streamers. I’m probably older than many who go through the program (35), and while I don’t have my sights set on trying to go pro or anything like that, I desperately want to improve with the limited time I have to commit to the game on a weekly basis. Looking back on my 8 week experience, I can confidently say that this program is more than worth the investment for those who are serious about making the commitment. The group of coaches and instructors who make up this program are incredibly professional, and the program is structured to maximize their use of your time. Each week is comprised of classes/lessons, drills, scrims, and 1x1 coaching sessions, which can be used either for server work or VOD review. Each week is well organized so that the content flows cohesively, and the lessons build from one to the next. The best part of all, and probably the biggest hidden value to this program, is that you get lifetime access to the discord server and all of the new content that will come with future seasons (new agent analysis, map analysis, etc.). It is a wonderful community of like minded people who all want to have fun and get better at the game together. I did most of my 1x1 work with evaD, and can’t speak highly enough of him. He’s thoughtful, well prepared, and great at both noticing tendencies as well as explaining the logic behind his recommendations. But honestly, all of the coaches are incredibly well prepared and approachable. If you’re an active participant, you get to meet all of them throughout the various lessons and drills, and they all have their own insights and experiences that make their lessons unique. In short, this course is worth the time and money if you are serious about improving. It is very much a situation where you get what you put into it. If you show up to classes and drills, ask good questions, and most importantly, play both ranked games and DMs, you will improve and you will climb. Going through this program has made me realize how much of a journey this game is, but how important it is to enjoy the journey. There are no overnight shortcuts, if you have to get better you have to put the time in, but also remember why you play the game to begin with. It’s supposed to be fun, there will be ups and downs but it is important to enjoy the journey, and I can confidently say that I’m most looking forward to engaging and growing with this community for as long as I play the game.

GBOne of the BEST Valo Communities As someone who isn't comfortable with the competitive aspect of Valorant the IRP community has been nothing but supportive. Both the coaches and fellow players/students are your biggest cheerleaders. Scrims are a great learning opportunity as well as the weekly classes. While my season has long been over this community has been another family to me and I wouldn't trade any of my experiences with them for anything. The resources available are great references and you can always join in the classes even if you are not in the current season. Lifelong support and resources!

GBirp opinion Hey my name is Stxch, at first when i started taking valorant serious i scoured the web to find something, i found a metafy coach which wasn't bad, but i felt like he wasn't invested that much. Then i moved onto gosu academy which i didn't like that much there lessons where okay there community was alright, but i needed something better So i was scouring youtube and i saw a ad for irp and i checked out it was a big step for me but i wanted to get serious. So i took it, best step i made. The community is super nice and welcoming, the lessons are broken down and easy to understand, the coaches go the extra step to make sure everybody understands what they're teaching. My coach drenit was super helpful and amazing. Helped me so much already, and is really invested in helping me improve. The program changed my entire view on valorant. I would recommend joining the program 100% if you want to improve in valorant, i can guarantee you will improve. Good luck on the grind 💪. btw, drenit is the best coach.

GB10/10 IRP was a fantastic financial decision for me. I joined up around the start of September and it has allowed me to gain the knowledge and skills to compete with ascendent level players. As of right now I climbed from plat 1 to diamond 1, but I am still going and wont be stopping anytime.
