"Why do I always get downed first?"
Do you ever feel this way when playing ranked?

First downs are often thought to be a matter of aim, but actually, they're often triggered by movements before the firefight.

This time, I'll explain 10 reasons that lead to first downs, using actual clips.

Of course, I'll be using clips of times I got first downed.

Normally, tutorial videos use clips of wins, but there's a lot to learn from losing scenes, so I hope you'll watch this like a training manual.

"Why did I die there?"

"What should I have done?"

I'll explain in an easy-to-understand way how to avoid being the first downed in ranked.

Especially in solo ranked, being the first downed often leads to the team's wipeout without you being able to do anything.

Next week, ranked will be mandatory solo from Diamond rank onwards, so if you want to climb the ranks even solo, please watch until the end.
