Site Hold: a Valorant angle holding drill

Site Hold is a Valorant angle holding drill. You defend A site from your chosen spot against 25 enemies who wide swing, shoulder peek, jiggle and trade, and you hear each one before it appears. They shoot back, and dying ends the run, so it trains placement, sound and timing together.

How close is this to holding a real site?

Closer than a target wall. Enemies come from lanes you can see from your spot, with mixed peek styles, and about one in five groups is a paired swing or a trade. You can walk, crouch and reposition, and enemies who stay visible shoot back. It is still bots without utility, so it trains the fight and not the round.

Where should the crosshair sit?

A few pixels off the edge, at head height, not on the wall. When a footstep names the next lane, move your aim there as soon as your current kill lands.

From Hard upward, two enemies can be out at once, so you also need a plan for which one to take.

Should you shoot at shoulder peeks?

No. Every shoulder and jiggle peek in this drill ends with the same bot swinging wide straight after, so it is bait. Throwing a shot at the shoulder is the classic mistake here, and the wide swing arrives while you are recovering. Wait for the body.

When does Site Hold belong in practice?

Late in a session, because it needs everything else to be warm. At Standard it is forgiving enough to learn from, with bots reacting after about 0.8 seconds, and it is the pass drill for the Path’s holding chapter at Platinum 1. Pair it with Reflex if your reactions are the limit.
