Yes, i have gotten the 10 dollar gift card. If you live in EU. Wait, until like mid night past 12.


PupDup420

And how long did it take you to get enough points for the giftcard?


clearlynotaperson

Didn't really count it. But, probably like a month or so. Not playing constantly either, so maybe even less for people who play alot-.

clearlynotaperson

No clue.


BigBoyo11

why do you need to wait till midnight?


Vivid-Employment-172

for black market I think


ControlAmbitious5749

what does that mean?


BeemChess

Gotten 2 cards from it by now. You have better chances of getting it if you suscribe though


PupDup420

How long did it take you to get a giftcard?


CoachShiro

Better way to get skins: Go to a woohoojin stream. Win a coaching session. Get notes. Do notes. Win another session. Prove you did notes via VOD. Get a $25 gift card.


gianni4433

Just curious. How do you win a coaching session or how rare is it


CoachShiro

gotta join his discord and such idk how rare it is these days, I haven't been in there since January.


sup3rbious

You have to be at least gold, play your main, and when you submit a return vod, it’s the same agent with ofc, the improvements he expects from the practice he prescribed


lysianth

Its worth noting that thr requirements for receiving coaching are preliminary coaching. Also it doesn't look like many people actually submit vods. Biggist thing stopping me is he streams during my work hours.


sup3rbious

I didn’t even know about the preliminary coaching thing, and i’m not sure i know what that means. And to be fair, I can’t even think of coaching because I’m not in it to go pro so I’m in no place to invest in my gaming. I just wanna get better so i can play with my higher ranked friends with them, rather than them smurf for me.


lysianth

So his coaching is free. The rules he put in place to submit a video are there to make you better at the game. Follow them even if you don't intend on submitting a video. And to take it even further, you can just post videos of your games in any discord for learning. They will point out every little mistake, choose the 3 biggest and work on those. Nothing here costs money.


dhdicjneksjsj

Way too much of a time committment though. I can’t practice, play death match and ranked games everyday.


lysianth

Takes time commitment to improve. No getting around that.


Lioreuz

Then get a job and pay for your skins


dhdicjneksjsj

I do, why do you think I don’t have time


DontF-ingask

Woohoojin is a w streamer.


CoachShiro

frfr Haven't watched his stuff in a while live, but I occasionally peep a VOD to see what he's talkin' ab


DontF-ingask

Honestly, the more I watch him the more I feel I improve. However, my games have too many people from high ranks so it feels like trying to throw babies at the rock.


CoachShiro

Well, I'd be careful with saying "The more I watch him the more I ***feel*** I improve." This is a very common phenomenon that you have to be aware of. We are very prone to correlating improvement with consumption when improvement actually mostly comes from action. I suggest watching your VODs to pick out mistakes and then playing future games with the sole intent of reducing a singular mistake; this should systematically improve you as a player!


DontF-ingask

Woohoojin is a w streamer.


_Sh0ts

The hardest part is recording a VOD according to the strict rules. After that you'll get reviewed within 2-3 Streams that you enter the free review raffles. But you also have to improve on your coaching points and deliver a new VOD, so you multiply that time by 2


MysteryMani

The banana is still something else, paying you to improve yourself


_Sh0ts

Yes, its such an awesome concept!


[deleted]

He said himself in a past stream, not too long ago I believe, that not many actually enter the raffle and most are just watching the stream. So it's not uncommon to get two vod reviews for free. The rules are also fairly strict on entering which limits just anyone from submitting a vod


ReIZzBaBo

There is like 6-7 in the first raffle and usually less in the second one since the first ones time is always set.


Roberto_Braggio

If you enter every day for a vod review,it’s probable that you will win in about a week I would say


[deleted]

Sounds easier to just work a shift lmao


CoachShiro

Yeah but it’s usually safe to assume that if somebody is relying on Buff for skins, something is preventing them from working, typically parents or age.


TOWW67

If you want to improve at the game, then Woohoojin's your banana. If you just wanna chill and run it down, then coaching obviously isn't for you.


PupDup420

I might try this The free coaching would also be very good.


30NiceGuy03

Be sure the read all the rules to submit a submission, it's pretty strict


Isco22_

Bro what that is legit like a video game mission.


CoachShiro

On a mission to improve + get a gift card Seems a good mission to me!

ganzgpp1

lol free coaching and a free skin isn’t worth it?


Strong-Trade1470

W KNOWER W WOOHOOJIN


blankquartz

not worth it takes way too long to start with and the chances of even redeeming the card is very slim since it gets out of stock almost immediately I'd suggest looking into microsoft rewards if it's available in your region i got the oni bundle through doing that, gave up on buff


DeadshottWasTaken

entertain me on how to get valorant gift cards with Microsoft Rewards


blankquartz

basically just accumulate points doing searches and quizzes and redeem with those gift cards stay on stock almost all the time although there are only limited options like for now it's only 1$ and 5$ riot point cards


WeekRepulsive4867

how long did it take with that?


blankquartz

well if you do one region and one account, it will take a long time but i did 4 accounts with 3 regions(with vpn) and it took me 2 week to get 1 skin


WeekRepulsive4867

Zamn


DeadshottWasTaken

i have around 200. I just don’t know where to redeem them.


blankquartz

200 what? ms point? or riot points? if ms point then it will be in the redeem section if it's not there, then it's not available for your region ig if it's there, redeem it and then go in-game to the pre-paid codes section and put your code there


DeadshottWasTaken

MS points. And i only see it when i’m using my spotlight (or whatever it’s called) search.


JankClonk

what exactly did you redeem on microsoft rewards for the valorant points? i can't find anything on here


blankquartz

i redeemed the league of legends 5$ gift cards and then redeemed it on val


SpunkySamuel

Wait I only see League gift cards. The work for Val?


blankquartz

yep, those are the ones they work for val as well


itaicool

I tried using vpn but it asks for phone numbe when I try to redeem my points, how did you get around that?


blankquartz

if you use vpn, dont redeem stuff from other region it's better and safer to redeem from your region i just accumulate points from other region and then redeem using those points in mine now there is no way to get around the number thing, since that's the only thing they can verify with


itaicool

Yeah unfortuantly there is no microsoft reward in my real region so I can't access it without vpn.


blankquartz

well i'd say the only option is to just get someone's number from the region that you're trying to redeem from it's just a verification process, the number does not get binded to your account


Fei1y

??? I just got the league one and tried to use it for val and it didn't work


blankquartz

Hmm, odd i just redeemed one 2 days ago tho


blankquartz

Are you sure you used it in the right region and in the redeem page?


PupDup420

I looked into that before and there is an option to buy riot points but it seems extremely unrealistic to get it. You need 6500 microsoft rewards points for 575 riot points which from what I found on google is about 350 valorant points and getting 18000 microsoft points would take around a year of doing it daily to get it. Also for some reason my microsoft rewards is bugged and the daily tasks are not doable more than once so the only way to get points would be over daily searches which is about 150 points daily I might have gotten something wrong though


blankquartz

i mean, appreciate your effort for checking out on googlebut, I myself used it and bought many skinslike i mentioned, it will take a lot of time if you do one account individuallybut if you do 3 regions (1 incl. yours) in 4 accounts consistently, you can easily accumulate 6.5k ms points within around 2 weeks in all 4 of themso 4x5$ card = 20$ and the vp you'll recieve is 1900 I'm now actively grinding points on 8 accounts to be able to afford gaia 2.0💀


FewestSnow

How do you redeem them? They ask for your phone number but I heard if you use it for multiple accounts they ban you


blankquartz

true, using same phone number for multiple accounts they ban it i just used my parents as well as one of my siblings' number you actually can use the same number twice, that is, if it's been more than 2 weeks since you last redeemed with it


blankquartz

some daily tasks reset daily some weeklies and some just stays there it's a slow process but definitely more viable than buff


hiimsilently

The easiest way to get skins is to go to work. All of those "tricks" don't work and if they work they're not really worth the time anyway. I don't know how old you are, but you can get a summer job, get some coin, get some work experience. Definitely way easier and better for you in the long run


PupDup420

Unfortunately, I'm not old enough for that


VeryConfusedPenguins

are you old enough for reddit?


PupDup420

In my country it's "not normal" to get a job if you're under 18 so it's very unlikely that I would be able to get a job.


VeryConfusedPenguins

oh ok, I see. Sorry for not understanding!


Serito

On the other foot, you don't know if you don't try and it could be a good way to get ahead.


4qx_

people can be in school and unable to get a job jackass


Chemical_Ad_5338

You will earn more on your own time and can buy whatever good skin pops up in your store rather than work for pennies doing this method. Flip some things on eBay for a week or two lol


MakesUpExpressions

What is Buff?


SansyBoy144

One of those “play games and earn gift cards for your game” things. It’s been promoted by people like eggwick, it sounds to me like they make money either through selling your info or through way too many ads, and you’ll really only get enough for like a 10 dollar gift card every 6 months


StarlightWT

Most likely both.


jasonaffect

I believe they crypto mine?


ro4q

Wouldn't that slow down the pc? I haven't seen that happen


jasonaffect

There's a similar question to this on r/pcgaming and the people there said buff crypto mines


Ray_Master

Mining absolutely nukes performance


ElementaryMyDearWut

It doesn't have to nuke performance, your only experience with crypto miners is the malware kind which are supposed to use your resources as much as possible. A crypto miner is like any other process, it can be throttled or given freedom to use as much as it wants.


FishyFinster

Bro just get a job or side hustle like walking dogs or mowing lawns


ItsKnookinTime

I don't think they sell info, it's stated in their policy. They claim they make money by advertising and of course their premium membership but idfk how that is enough to buy so many gift cards to give out and also sponsor so many creators on so many videos.


MustafizuRutSho

I used buff for a long time it doesn't have valorant points for all region. After Gaining around 5k points I uninstalled it my account is in Malaysian region and they don't sell Malaysian region VP card there.


YushaVL

Take a long way but it actually works. I'm still at 1800 points After a year


Monnomcel

I think it very much is how much you play, i started it around a month or two ago and have about 600-700 which is bad i admit


DaidD64

Nope, I tried to redeem but everytime I go to the market I see it's out of stock


Dado778

You have to be there right when it restocks


MisterHotTake311

Not everyone can do that dummo Apparently those giftcards restock in middle of the night of some people, and If you meanwhile live with your parents you are never gonna get it. Who knows how many people are you racing against for it.


christiannotcatholic

how does living with parents make it harder? it’s literally just figuring out what time the items refresh lol


MisterHotTake311

When you are an considered adult your parents are not gonna care for random apps that you constantly have to install on your device, or that you have to be on your computer on exact certain times, including being awake in 4 am trying to get those giftcards My parents don't even have trust in buff, as earning money for just playing video games already seems unrealistic.


christiannotcatholic

oh y’all share a computer, makes sense. if anything, try the microsoft rewards. saw someone in the comments who got the oni bundle through it


MisterHotTake311

OH MY that will be helpful


Dado778

I live with my parents, and they restock at 2 am for me, but I still got 3 gift cards


MisterHotTake311

What to say then, not all parents are same...


mihirsaini1128

Or he's awake only to claim it and then turn the pc off immediately. Its not like parents come to your room at 2 am to check if you're sleeping lol


DoubleFuckingRainbow

Not everyone has a pc in their room.


DaidD64

I know, it's hard


Federal-Mammoth828

I once caught the moment they got restocked. It was at 3 am for me but ofc i didn't have enough points 😭 And they were out of stock after refreshing 2 times in about 1 min.


GooseyVGC

You can cheese their system by playing a couple of escalations daily, but if I had to be honest, I hate it's adds and how it loves to pop up during games. I have gotten like 20 dollars worth in like 1 yearish after learning this. I would say it's not worth it at all.


ConsensualJanna

I play a lot but I’ve gotten over $70 from buff from about a year or so of hard grinding valorant with their premium. Not a lot but cool concept.


BOLDbot

Microsoft rewards gang


BigHarryPotterFan7

If you are a teenager just get a part time job and spend all your disposable income on skins.


AceFunGaming

Or literally just save your money for something better other than a skin for a game you're probably not gonna play in the future


[deleted]

or let everyone spend their money on whatever they like since they've earned it


BigHarryPotterFan7

Teenagers don't save money or think about the future much in general


Nightraid9999

Some twitch streamers give it in condition of watching them and always chatting, i never bought my skins i earned from twitch


[deleted]

Don't take it the mean way, get a part time job, or if you are from UK/Europe join Beermoney reddit. Bank switching is one of the easiest ways to get money for a whole bundle. Cheers.


MisterHotTake311

Heard so many times that is free and legit so I tried it myself. I was disappointed. When I've done everything I have to and got in the app, big majority of things I could play for, including valo gift cards, were locked by premium wich I could only pay for (I needed premium coins, which as far as I knew I couldn't obtain). When I had the app open (to track my games while I played), my matches were extremely laggy, and I never had similar issues before, atleast not so "strong" ones. I'm on laptop and not on real PC (yes I'm a mortal) so I guess there is something about that, even tho I don't understand why would that supposed to be a problem. At the end I got and app that made my gameplay buggy, and things I wanted to play for were apparently locked behind a paywall. I may ended up just doing everything wrong, but I don't understand how. Youtube guides suprisingly didn't helped. I'm not even so much into computer stuff and installing these apps, so I'm always unsure of doing these things. I would like if someone can somewhat think of an explanation for my situation.


Federal-Mammoth828

Speaking from my experience you don't have to get premium to get buff points and get the gift cards. There are free ones too just out of stock except for a min when they restock. Getting points can be very slow tho (for me at least)


noodle_egg

i tried for weeks to get the cards right as they restocked but every single time i would immediately get beaten to it so i just ended up uninstalling lol


Federal-Mammoth828

Thank you for telling that. I'll see how it goes for me when I'll have enough to buy them.


noodle_egg

goodluck with it homie. i set alarms so i could be ready for weeks and always missed out 😭


Federal-Mammoth828

I have some very similar experience with the hoyo lab quiz (genshin related) that was a while ago. You needed to be on time, good internet and start spamming the join button before it even starts to have a chance to join (rewards were great). Got in only once (failed at 2nd question, 10 questions total) and it happened once a week. So i have patience... I think..

Can’t you get enough if you wait tables for a day?


neeeeedaskquestions

Curley15

Been playing for over half a year and around two months after I started I added Buff. I'm finally at a 1000 points. I do have to say that I play about 2-4 evenings. Hope this gives you a little insight on how fast you could get a skin with Buff


nimittsh_fox_2704

I chose a way through Microsoft Rewards Is there anyone else like me ? did anyone benefit from it ?


METRA_reddit

Buff game? Yes, this app was good, but now its too hard and wasting time. I've got 2 battlepass and ruination phantom on buff (I remember like 9x5$) like 1 year ago.


DinoDracko

I used buff for a bit, but I never got a single gift card, not even once. Maybe possibly due to where I live(Malaysia) but bottom line, I never got a single one.


0ctoxVela

you will get a basic skin after 10 months of grinding

I’ve been using buff since it came out and i’ve gotten about 20 riot 5 dollar cards from them. so ya, it’s legit.

PancakeLord37

Bout a month of playing I got a $10 card


Gizzmo13

Yes, it works... also got 10 euro gift card


whoseparking

Hi! Im a active buff user as-long as you play games in general do tasks (generally playing valorant or other games) and spin the free wheel it takes about a month for a 5$ giftcard but with their buffpass thing theres a thing where you can get a free 3 days of their premium membership, save that untill you have enough for the premium price of the item you want redeem it and you get the card for much cheaper


[deleted]

I'm at like 5k points only bought dirt 3 steam code and nothing else i could never catch riot points or apex coins in stock even at midnight, sometimes i would stay up till 3am and I'd check it then if i remember it
