apex

[little verge]

Alright, you have fun standing in the open aim duelling 0.6 I guess. Have fun.

[covert sentinel]

you're worried about controller players so u pick up a prowler instead of peeking with a wing or longbow or bow or whatever

that's a really strange decision lol

[little verge]

Again, we are comparing two guns strictly one vs the other. I still have no idea how you fail to understand such a basic concept.

But I'm done talking to a wall.

[covert sentinel]

so u admit those guns are better in this situation

[little verge]

Yes, other guns are better for certain situations and that's why the R99 is better than the Prowler. QED. Congratulations you made a convincing argument with no flaws.

[covert sentinel]

that implies I care about what u think I'm just trying to understand what ur saying

because its so odd

[little verge]

I'd start with finishing high school if you're that determined to understand.

[covert sentinel]

like if u find a clip of a good player doing this I'll admit I'm wrong and take the L

ahh

you're dongie 2.0 I got baited 💀 gg

[mellow kestrel]

gotta love strikepack horizons

that insta 225 you in 1s with a turbo havoc while flying up Q

[rain prairie]

Anyone know how to.get better using the PK.. I think for me it's a click timing issue

[little verge]

Are you trying to flick onto them with the PK, or tracking?

[covert sentinel]

use the prowler instead apparently it's better 💀

[rain prairie]

Flick

[little verge]

That's probably why. It's better to track and just wait for the best timing.

[honest heron]

Stop flicking then, it's just rng

Ideally they should just walk into your crosshair for freee

[rain prairie]

Thanks guys!

[quaint karma]

prowler is insane if you hit your shots, and yes it works like a PK in that you can peek, fire, take cover, rinse repeat

it has way higher dps in that burst than any other gun

[rain prairie]

I was usually a smg guy but the hip fire nerf😭

[little verge]

It's OK, there are better guns than the Prowler so that's why the R99 is a better SMG than the Prowler. We have already determined this.

[covert sentinel]

so why do no masters arena players use it in my lobbies and use a mozam instead

[quaint karma]

what kind of question is that

[covert sentinel]

?

[quaint karma]

?

[little verge]

Arenas has a very different weapon meta and play style altogether.

[covert sentinel]

there is more peeking from cover in arenas tho

[mellow kestrel]

arena gun meta is a joke

[honest heron]

They use it because purple mozam is broken for poke damage

[covert sentinel]

so you don't poke people in brs

also they frequently rush with bangalore and Maggie

so

[honest heron]

At close range? No that's not really something that happens often

[mellow kestrel]

purple mozam is broken for poke damage

[covert sentinel]

they don't just poke at all

[mellow kestrel]

its just broken

alltogether

[covert sentinel]

yeah

[mellow kestrel]

purple mozam is fucking CRAZY

[honest heron]

Too much range

[mellow kestrel]

yes

[covert sentinel]

free hammer points in crafter this season

[mellow kestrel]

way too much

[covert sentinel]

so free purple mozam in brs

[little verge]

Purple Mozam is basically better Wingman in arenas because there's less risk to use.

[mellow kestrel]

yeah

like if you slightly whiff you're still doing 15-30 damage

[little verge]

It's econ so missing a Wingman vs grazing one bolt of Mozam is still a better trade.

[covert sentinel]

I mean u say that but I have first hand experience of Maggies or bangas rushing me not just poking wingman style

[quaint karma]

isn’t purple mozam also faster ttk than wingman

[covert sentinel]

1v3

[honest heron]

Yes

[little verge]

Yeah, ROF is nuts on purple bolt

[quaint karma]

unless you’re headahotting

[honest heron]

It's 45 per shot

[covert sentinel]

so how exactly is prowler a peek from cover weapon not arena Meta if arenas is literally peeking from cover

[quaint karma]

damn he gained a lot of viewers

[mellow kestrel]

https://tenor.com/view/sdffsdf-buzz-lightyear-all-star-tower-defense-gif-23057849

maggies with mozam in arena:

spamming everything

[honest heron]

Maggies on dropoff pushing mid ^

[mellow kestrel]

yeah literally

maggie + mozam + ult + ape mid

insta 3-4 taps u with roller

[quaint karma]

i’m not sure why they haven’t taken out hammer points of arenas or made it way more expensive

[mellow kestrel]

0 counterplay gg

you buy any other gun you die

[honest heron]

They don't care about arenas

Dead mode

[mellow kestrel]

devs just made that shit and abandoned it

[quaint karma]

yeah that’s the stupid thing too, mozam is completely broken on controller

it’s the easiest shit in the world

i used to buy blue mozam first round with a bat and a nade

[little verge]

Devs: "We heard your cries for solos and TDM loud and clear, here's a boring ass arena mode we'll drop support for altogether"

[quaint karma]

it’s still insane but i don’t like doing it because that’ll get everyone to buy mozam every round now

in pub arenas

[covert sentinel]

yeah you might just influence everyone

[honest heron]

I love playing pub arenas and getting stuck by 3 arc stars by a fuse on round 1

[mellow kestrel]

always when enemy team starts losing they buy either mozam, turbo havoc or turbo devo

[quaint karma]

idk i rarely have weirdoes like that in pub arenas

[mellow kestrel]

sometimes both havoc/devo and mozam hammers

[quaint karma]

every few games yeah but otherwise it’s fine

[little verge]

Every arena match starts with the team running Wingmans and as soon as they get dunked it goes full degen mode

[covert sentinel]

who buys turbo havoc anymore

[honest heron]

Just be a Chad and buy weird weapons

Like sentinel

[mellow kestrel]

i just run volt every round

[honest heron]

I just play wingman pk

[quaint karma]

wingman

[honest heron]

On mnk

It's ok

[quaint karma]

can’t stand that gun either

yeah but if it’s used against me it doesn’t matter who it is

it’s just really annoying

[honest heron]

The wingman is the great equalizer

[quaint karma]

i’m landing like a billion shots

nice 50 damage

[near drift]

wingman rocks

[quaint karma]

wingman hits me once

nice, 63 damage or whatever

👍

[honest heron]

Lol

It can hit for way more than that

[quaint karma]

but then i’ve basically been forcing myself to just use alternator tbh

it’s the goat gun

[honest heron]

Getting a 100 dink is so funny

[mellow kestrel]

playing wraith against wingman is not fun

[quaint karma]

[mellow kestrel]

you ALWAYS get headshot

[quaint karma]

i always play wraith

[mellow kestrel]

same but not in arenas

fuck that

no point

[covert sentinel]

how not

[quaint karma]

i have 11k kills in arenas on wraith

[mellow kestrel]

so many legends that are more powerful in arenas imo

any that can early peek e.g

[quaint karma]

yeah but who cares

[covert sentinel]

disagree

because

[mellow kestrel]

i player her sometimes but i usually run loba

[little verge]

Wraith is just weak in general now, arenas or otherwise.

[mellow kestrel]

loba/octane/horizon

[quaint karma]

path is the best arenas legend anyway if you know how to play him

on certain maps he’s just insane

[mellow kestrel]

yeah def

[covert sentinel]

a good wraith is really hard to kill though I don't see how she's weak in arena

[mellow kestrel]

alot of path players just go abuse headglitch on bins

[quaint karma]

i’ve been playing a lot of arenas again this season cuz i don’t wanna play kc or sp most of the time

[mellow kestrel]

imo really busted and should be fixed but w/e

[quaint karma]

💀

yeah

[mellow kestrel]

you're right about a good wraith being hard to kill but imo her kit is weak af for arenas

[quaint karma]

idk how they would fix that tho other than sinking bin into the ground or something

[mellow kestrel]

its weak enough in BR

im saying that as a 19k kill wraith main

like you can play her just fine in arenas but personally i prefer e.g octane

[covert sentinel]

yeah I like octane

[mellow kestrel]

cuz passive heal + Q lets you peek relatively early

also pad is nice

portal in arenas 😴

[quaint karma]

anyone with horizontal movement is good in arenas

[little verge]

Doing a bunch of hand gestures just to get caught up by the Maggie running with a Mozam

[quaint karma]

let’s you get to bin or power position first

and take space

[quaint karma]

[mellow kestrel]

@quaint karma yeah exactly

especially on overflow i prefer being e.g loba and just early peeking doors

free oneclip really often

[covert sentinel]

and skynades on habitat

with path I chunk them

[quaint karma]

i don’t really skynade on habitat

i do it on phase runner and party crashed

you could also do it on encore

very effectively sometimes

[near drift]

bruh i dont even know these maps by name

ik they are arenas tho

phase runner is straight forward

[quaint karma]

💀

[green swallow]

goofy ahh

i would if i could learn it fast but itll take a while

CAN I GET SOME FUCKING USEFUL TEAMMATES THAT DONT DIE OFF RIP

[fringe girder]

if youre complaining abt that in pubs

[teal moth]

Bro why do NA streamers play vs golds and plats

Im outhere getting actual sweat lobbies with 12 masters/pred squads

Meanwhile i tune into an NA stream and they just wiped pattyflipperlarry42 and his plat friends

[teal moth]

Wdym dude dying off the rip is busted

Your team will 2v3

Today i got ressed 5 times in 1 game

In ranked, i was baiting so my mates could 2v3

[young charm]

where can i find it? the playlist that the other guy recommended isnt for aimlab i guess, and the one ur recommending i can not find, i searched the discord for e1se's comments and the only scenario he ever posted is deleted youtube video and on his youtube channel he has only scores that he ranked #1 on kovaaks or aimlab

[violet sphinx]

i got 1 and my teammates sat back while the teammates rezzed and i cracked another and got knocked

even if i bait myself for the rest of the team they never do anything after it

[frigid bramble]

ah yes sorry it’s for kovaaks, my bad. for sure should invest in kovaaks though i reckon

[wicked river]

[frigid bramble]

i think that if i were able to track my enemies in apex with my eyes, like genuinely focus on the target like i do in kovaaks, i would aim SOOO much better. but i legit cannot see fkn shit brother theres fuckin sparkins n lights n all this visual clutter bullshit comin from no where bruh

[slim lantern]

increasing the damage for the first zone

was a braindead change

what dev came up with that bright idea

[quaint karma]

yup

that shit better be reverted

[rancid flame]

someone beat it

[rancid flame]

yeah thats the point

they want controller players to win

game is a joke

[alpine trail]

B

[worldly heart]

damn guys... fuck me, revenant do be climbing high fr

[wicked river]

[covert sentinel]

video settings + monitor issue

[silver seal]

Clearly monitor issue

[covert sentinel]

yeah revenant is kinda aids for visual clutter id on't see how that changes my point

[frigid bramble]

mm no. 100% not. you can have settings all low and its terrible

[covert sentinel]

no? i would know, my enemies stick out like a sore thumb

[frigid bramble]

i also have a 1440p monitor. i dont think think its a monitor or video settings problem on our end

thats fuckin cap brudda😂

[covert sentinel]

unlucky visual IQ genetics maybe? idk

[frigid bramble]

oh good one what a funny fella

delusional

[covert sentinel]

amd or nvidia?

[frigid bramble]

fraps

[covert sentinel]

you probably have AA on with a monitor with no motion blur tech or something

also your bullets literally illuminate the enemy

[frigid bramble]

idk wtf u got goin on my boy but my shit does notttttttt look that clear wtf...🤣

post a clip rq of you in a fight?

[covert sentinel]

ok

[frigid bramble]

for gigabyte, is the motion blur tech Aim stabilization?

ive jus turned that on

[covert sentinel]

not sure, i'm using purexp+ from viewsonic

benq has dyac

and idk any other brands

[frigid bramble]

got next to no ghosting now, just checked on ufo ghost test. nice and clear. what else did you other than that?

[covert sentinel]

grab a friend and get them to stand in random places while you tune your nvidia game filter and monitor settings, i use this:

https://i.imgur.com/TUxRva0.png

https://i.imgur.com/lM9nMfV.png

ingame brightness 90-100% i can't remember

also google the videoconfig file that disables the shit you dohn't want

[young charm]

my guys turning them nvidia settings to max while im on 60hz barely hitting 60fps on all 0 in videoconfig files and 1600x900res

[frigid bramble]

i remember the days on 1600x900 that shit was gangsta🤣

[young charm]

i swear to god as soon as a 240hz player steppes up with a wingman i perish like i never existed

[frigid bramble]

that was the sweat days on h1z1

[young charm]

so apparently no1 uses aimlab here? is kovaaks really that much better?

and 1 question, is there anyone here thats still on 60hz but has hit pred at least once? im rly struggling to get even to diamond sometimes

[silver seal]

It's a preference thing, choose whatever aim trainer u like

[spring patrol]

kovaaks more efficient

[wicked river]

Kovaaks efficient at crashing

[mellow kestrel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIkjql2fbyc

new raky vid

[sharp nova]

dont use that fucking garbage

[mellow kestrel]

free input lag bro wdym

[covert sentinel]

i'm good i'll use it it's extremely helpful for increasing visibility

[sharp nova]

extremely good at making the game run horribly

[covert sentinel]

runs fine for me and didn't ask for your input lol

[sharp nova]

u told someone else to use it

but it fucking blows cheeks and gives u insane performance degrade

[covert sentinel]

someone complaining specifically about visibility yeah

[sharp nova]

ruining framepacing is going to make it way harder to see people in motion

its not at all worthwhile

[covert sentinel]

cool maybe you had that experience sucks for you

[sharp nova]

everyone has this experience unless ur heavily cpu bound

which is vry rare for apex

[mellow kestrel]

nvidia overlay too adds a fair bit of input lag

shadowplay no bueno

[sharp nova]

dno about that, shadowplay does increase util a bit but it's the actual post process settings that just destroy latency & frametimes

[mellow kestrel]

yeah

idk if it affects frametimes too much but its gonna add a fair bit of input lag

that's not an opinion, thats a fact

any postprocessing done at any point by either your GPU or even monitor, will add a bit of input lag

[covert sentinel]

enjoy your blinding psuedo-bloom everywhere if you think it's worth whatever unnoticeable latency it causes

[mellow kestrel]

but if you're fine with it and find the tradeoff worthwile then its fine

[covert sentinel]

i'll be having fun longbowing from across the map

[sharp nova]

lol can u actually not feel it

[mellow kestrel]

if you're longbowing across the map then id say worth

[covert sentinel]

unless you have numbers this kind of conversation is a really pointless pissing contest considering the placebo effect is strong

[mellow kestrel]

but imo better frametimes = better visual clarity when tracking and looking around = easier to track

[sharp nova]

i dont think u understand how the filters work

[mellow kestrel]

best case scenario you get 1 whole frame of input lag

which in reality combined with apex engine results in more than that usually

[sharp nova]

most of them are going to buffer multiple frames

[mellow kestrel]

the frame has to be rendered before nvidia can apply the filters to your frame

which takes time

there's no numbers needed, this is how it works

it adds significant latency

[covert sentinel]

cool i'm still going to take increased visibility

in apex legends

the game where it's really hard to see things

[mellow kestrel]

go for it

[covert sentinel]

lol

[mellow kestrel]

i agree

[sharp nova]

id much rather recommend using non performance degrading options like colour/monitor settings & diff config settings

[covert sentinel]

already have perfect config and monitor isn't getting rid of the pseudo-bloom in the game

[wicked river]

or bribing respawn to unfuck their game

[sharp nova]

post process cant remove bloom either

[covert sentinel]

that's why i said pseudo-bloom

i don't know what it actually is or how to describe it other than calling it that

one sec

https://i.imgur.com/NiSbIm1.jpeg

https://i.imgur.com/a3QrhHd.jpeg

[wicked river]

That's fuckin

Lens glare

Or whatever its called

Unless you mean the actual bloom 🗿

[covert sentinel]

yeah well anyway i'm taking 2nd pic with 4ms of input lag or whatever

the high contrast here for example is good for highlighting players

[sharp nova]

nah that is bloom

it just compresses the fuck out of the 'white' values or whatever

whilst ur game looks like itd give me a massive headache, the filters defo do increase static clarity in most circumstances

[covert sentinel]

i think digital vibrance was re-applied upon taking a screenshot so it looks more aids not sure

[teal moth]

Just turn your resolution so low

that a player model rendered in higher resolutions stands out

i have my switch scale(which is the resolution) to 0.25

lowest setting you can do in-game is 0.6

[mellow kestrel]

damn i keep forgetting just how much desync console players have

[alpine trail]

Hello

[alpine trail]

would anybody happen to know why shadowplay audio quality would become rlly muffled and ass compared to my ingame sound?

[pastel aurora]

Surely this is low sens for apex right

[placid root]

wtf

[alpine trail]

it did the same thing with overwolf's software too so i think its just my pc audio or something

[spring patrol]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Woz9coIxUKw&ab_channel=Caprah

[little verge]

Yeah, honestly no point in using shadowplay when you can just use Replay Buffer. More lightweight, plus you can remove Nvidia Experience.

[teal moth]

Apex

Gives me despair

-1000 rp

+1200 rp

Same, can’t see shit sometimes on a zowie 240hz. Let me know if you find any good ones

[mellow kestrel]

💯

preachin

shadowplay latency 🥴

[alpine trail]

except if you use riva tuner of software that interrupts the recoding 😦

ive been trying out medal and its pretty good ngl better quality options

better than nvidia imo some parts

[mellow kestrel]

i used RTSS with OBS just fine idk

[alpine trail]

using all low detection? i presume?

none or low?

[mellow kestrel]

idk low ig

don't remember tbh

[alpine trail]

i thought none disabled it ngl

[bright elm]

rtss works fine with obs

I used to record with obs replay buffer

while running rtss to cap frames

low detection

[bright elm]

nice video caprah

[alpine trail]

Nah not for me sadly, iirc its on one of thoses list that can stop obs from game capturing

I always have to stop riva then launch obs so it can capture apex

Then relaunch when it's hooked

https://obsproject.com/wiki/Known-Conflicts

[mellow kestrel]

^kinda cool mirror clip

[alpine trail]

Nicesuu

Volt go crazy

[mellow kestrel]

indeed

[placid root]

[frigid bramble]

unfortunately tiktok ruined it for me because most of the clips in the video he already posted on tiktok 😭😭😭😩😩

[viscid hare]

try making obs admin

also i use rtss and obs at the same time since the s14 update completely fucked the in game frame limiter for me and made the game unplayable

should work fine

[astral pebble]

? game frame limiter? why do you keep fucking with your game to make it unplayable

[proven pulsar]

.8 1600dpi

[vital rock]

Low sens superiority

[little verge]

Sigma male aimers don't even measure by cm/360 anymore

[vital rock]

Yea I measure my 360 by how many swipes I have to do

[proven pulsar]

cba to remember my cm/360

[quaint karma]

im giddy rn

[little verge]

Yeah, and I replaced my mouse cable with a resistance band

[vital rock]

45 is not my cm, it’s the amount of swipes to 360

[quaint karma]

shit on this garbage ass threestack in arena pubs

[vital rock]

[proven pulsar]

you play on 45cm hundredz

bruh

[quaint karma]

whats wrong with 45

[vital rock]

No idk what my cm is

[quaint karma]

i used to play 43

[vital rock]

I’m .8 @ 1200

What is that in cm

[proven pulsar]

wait do you not use 1600dpi

[vital rock]

Nope

Stopped using raw accel

[proven pulsar]

dont you have a video on why to use 1600dpi

[vital rock]

Ya should still use the highest dpi you can for sure

[little verge]

I think that's 47cm

[vital rock]

47 ayooo

[little verge]

Or nah maybe you're right on 45. 1.3/800 is 40

[proven pulsar]

understandable

[proven pulsar]

no that is 43

[little verge]

Either way, 40cm is definitely the wave.

[vital rock]

I keep going up and then just going back down

Cause it’s night and day between my 1v1 potential

[little verge]

The only time I dislike the 40 range is the odd time I try and use a 4x scope and instead of trying to hip and correct I try and hard scope it and run out of pad

[proven pulsar]

how often do you change sens

[little verge]

But that's just skill issue, or lack thereof

for a sec i thought you were talking about educvs

lmao rip

[quaint karma]

not sure what an educvs is

ngl

[proven pulsar]

8yo apex pred

[alpine trail]

what

[quaint karma]

prodigy

[proven pulsar]

yeah hes from mexico btw

i think hes 10 now tho

https://twitter.com/Educvs8

[quaint karma]

nah but definitely mature beyond his years from the sounds of it

[alpine trail]

arriba mexico

[quaint karma]

8 year olds usually dont dedicate to something

like that

[alpine trail]

hes insane

[quaint karma]

they dont have the mindset for it

[proven pulsar]

prob wont have mindset for comp just yet but hes a beast

i usually see him playing with some big names when im watching twitch

[quaint karma]

he speaks english?

[proven pulsar]

enough to comm in game

[alpine trail]

hes already pred

in this season i mean

20k pc

or is it normal for someone that put a lot hours into idk

[quaint karma]

well its not normal at 10 i can tell you that much

i was dogshit at video game sback then

well i was good but like

for a 10 year old lol

[proven pulsar]

if he got encouraged/supported/coached by his parents its totally doable

imo

im no neuroscientist but at younger ages your brains plasticity is still developing (or something like that), which pretty much translates to faster and better learning capability

[alpine trail]

yeah I've heard that like is easier to learn different languages for example

[stuck grove]

is it that bad to play apex at lower fov? i've been playing 86.6 because thats the conversion from overwatch but idk how much im handicapping myself

im brand new to this game

high fov just feels weird

[little verge]

Lower FOV will help see legends from farther out since they'll appear bigger, but you'll lose out on a ton of information. In a BR and its inherent chaotic nature, information is far more important.

I'd definitely try turning it at least to 100 and see how it goes. Nothing as extreme as 120, but still wider.

[wicked river]

Lower fov would be workable if audio actually fuckin worked

[quaint karma]

yeah, thing is 8 year olds usually arent grinders or like cant figure out certain things by themselves

so i agree with the coaching/supporting thing

[proud dragon]

conversion from ow would be 90 degress would it not

from what i remember apex measures fov in a weird way

you might be right tho with the 86.6

but either way there is nothign wrong with the low FOV

people like high fov for visibility but obvs its gonna change how ur sens feels

best thing with low fov is ur fps is much higher

[proud dragon]

reminds me so much of spargo in smash ultimate

i think its just a mindset thing if a kid that young decides to pursue esports

rare but always really cool to see

[wicked river]

Also if their parents let them

[proud dragon]

thats huge honestly

i think often you can get into gaming / not get into it cos of your parents

my dad used to play cs 1.6 and source and quake a lot when i was a little kid so i was much more interested in it than an avg kid my age

i imagine if he wasnt into gaming like that i likely wouldnt have cared

[wicked river]

Mine just griefed me by buying me shit laptops

[proud dragon]

LOL

i have this picture of me on our setup somewhere

PEEP the mouse grip

intellimouse 3.0 😱

[wicked river]

Midget hands

[proud dragon]

i was palm gripping

[wicked river]

That ain't palm it looks like you aren't even holding the mouse

[proud dragon]

LMAO

[wicked river]

Hand just on top

[proud dragon]

i literally still have that exact intellimouse somewhere

[wicked river]

Bruh

[proud dragon]

lmfao

[thin raven]

stop giving me boosted plat plz cant aim for shit

[mellow kestrel]

am i the only one who thinks strafing on horizon Q needs a nerf

ahahah nooo bro

why my first game on

with like no ammo

WHY IS HE PLAYING WITH CONSOLE

[placid root]

F

[mellow kestrel]

hes malding over me

on stream

nice

saying i played like an algs but in reality i was running around looking for ammo lol i couldnt push him without bullets xd

[wicked river]

[mellow kestrel]

wait WTF he said i stream sniped too

i rarely even watch twitch 💀

[wicked river]

Smh imagine stream sniping

[mellow kestrel]

ikr so cringe smh

i get in his games pretty often lol as we're same region, i see him in killfeed every now and then

https://clips.twitch.tv/ModernHomelyBoarKappa-01QnyyYLIStoLq58

LOOK AT THIS LMAO

"streamsniping cringelord" ok

like yeah let me just run head first into an eva with no ammo so i don't get flamed for roleplaying ALGS

[dusky summit]

he says everyone is stream sniping

[mellow kestrel]

I can tell

Not gonna blame him for bad mental after that much apex tbf

:’)

I just queued and insta dropped crash site first game on like i always do when ship spawna there lol

And i had already fought a bunch of teams there for a while

But im obv the one stream sniping when a bangalore starts chasing me while im Qing out of a fight yes

[vital rock]

HELLO

[vital rock]

nice excuse cringe lord

[wicked river]

[bright elm]

hello!

[mellow kestrel]

HELLO, and yeah got me there

[little verge]

Scrub just playing like an ALGS tryhard, you think you know someone

[teal moth]

yes

[mellow kestrel]

ya'll can actually track that shit?

idk man it seems way too easy to just ad spam and just get a free 100+ beam on any enemy that doesnt have cover

[teal moth]

Depends on the angle

most of the time close range you can

Yeah and get 3 man shot by his teammates

and die

or when you get off it and they shoot you out of the sky

[mellow kestrel]

if they're not strafing too much then its easy to oneclip them but idk

[teal moth]

while falling

just team shoot

[mellow kestrel]

yes let me just team shoot solo in a pub :P

even if i were to fill noone knows how to track any of that

especially not the level 23 bloodhounds i usually get

but idk i still feel like if the horizon is somewhat decent you're not gonna be able to oneclip her off Q or mid air with her air strafe passive

not consistently anyways

like i love horizon but her Q feels like low risk high reward atm

[teal moth]

nah

i've killed so many ppl qing

What’s up VT, just published my latest video. Currently gold complete and working through platinum, been a fun experience working with people in here! If you could like the video and show some love in the comments, I would appreciate it from the bottom of my heart

[bright elm]

most of them just jump out of the q

and they go in a pgti arc

easiest target to track

[mellow kestrel]

yeah those guys are free beam

[bright elm]

the ad spam in the q is cringe tho

i dont bother shooting until they jump out

my favorite experience

[alpine trail]

russian playing apex all day

[steady barn]

Where would I find a good apex routine?

[quaint karma]

idk shivs entire personality is just yelling randomly and calling people streamsnipers

no cap

[quaint karma]

think thats his gf

[mellow kestrel]

Yeah he realized after

U got him babe!!!!!

[quaint karma]

💀

how is he letting his gf play on console

with the money he makes

coulda bought a pc easy

[mellow kestrel]

FACTS

[little verge]

Because every content creator knows how broken console is by now, having one on your team is always a good idea.

[violet sphinx]

ngl i need someone to queue with in ranked cause solo q is annoying ash rn

anyone na thats plat/gold pls help me im struggling

[turbid condor]

[quaint karma]

how the fuck did you get inside a b in

bin

[frigid bramble]

AHHAHAHAH

[bright elm]

?????

what the fuck

[frigid bramble]

cant believe u bruh.. such a streamsniping cringelord smh🤦‍♂️

[little verge]

Plat I and I find a Bronze IV in my matchmaking.

Thought it was glitched but no it's legit, what a massive disparity.

[turbid condor]

magic

ur mate stands on the bin

and opens it

against a wall

like stand on the bin against a wall

and it half opens

and then you can crawl inside

and it closes on you

[slim lantern]

Plat to silver is more of a play time disparity than a skill disparity.

At least imo

[quaint karma]

bruh im gonna do that to someone

[violet sphinx]

for me its the opposite where ive been playing plats since silver

[violet sphinx]

golds can easily be better than plats depending on playtime/if theyre solo qing or not

[little verge]

Yeah, for me it's not so much the skill issue as much as it's "holy fuck these poor bronze players are gonna get dunked and lose RP"

[violet sphinx]

im struggling rn in solo q as a gold but im equal to my friend who gets plat every season

[little verge]

Just because they can play with a gap that large. Plus plats will gain off that too.

[violet sphinx]

and plays more than me

yeag

[slim lantern]

At the same time the average plat is still probably more experienced than the average silver

[violet sphinx]

average silver could just be a pub player

platform also depends

plat ps4 is basically equal to gold pc

also someone pls help me in ranked i desperatly need teammates to queue with

[little verge]

Pub players these days don't touch ranked now that they can't get masters just by ratting all day.

[violet sphinx]

true

[violet sphinx]

ratting all game after getting a team wipe still works

[mellow kestrel]

AHAHAH WHAT

[violet sphinx]

i prob wont be in 2 hours sry

[quaint karma]

just got carried in arenas

a once in a lifetime event

was a roller player ofc

mf didnt miss a wingman or pk shot it seems

[alpine trail]

did they nerf hipfire on all guns or only smgs?

[honest heron]

ARs and SMGs

[alpine trail]

damn

[quaint karma]

thing is that smg hipfire was nerfed hard

ARs were barely changed

also you need a purple laser sight to have your hipfire be as good as it used tobe in s13

good and a bit better*

[alpine trail]

makes sense

should be golden tbf

[quaint karma]

people say smgs now come with a purple stabilizer by default

idk if thast true but

cant say ive had issues controlling smg recoil this season

so maybe

[wicked river]

Volt only needs blue laser

[alpine trail]

dying to controller wingman feels so satisfying

u fry them long range push their building and get dogged on

[quaint karma]

pure skill

[alpine trail]

2 headshot one body no missed shots

cause thatd be a waste of ammo

just put a marker above cotroller kids so i know who not to get to close to

doesnt really help too see it in deathrecap

[little verge]

Big flashing red effect whenever you're getting within AA range

[bright elm]

no way

xskimped is talking in VT????!?!

[honest heron]

xskimped (who)

[bright elm]

og apex chat

before the nuclear fallout

[honest heron]

lmao

[quaint karma]

what happened

[little verge]

Or an effect like this around all roller players

[bright elm]

some og chatters got banned lol

[quaint karma]

😳

[honest heron]

clearly kovaaks is not The Meta

[bright elm]

and since then the people who didn't get banned just stopped talking

tragic story

[quaint karma]

what did they get banned for

[honest heron]

being too based

[bright elm]

breaking rukes

rules

xd

[honest heron]

saying mean words

[bright elm]

i think one broke discord tos

[quaint karma]

did multiple people just decide to break the rules one day

[honest heron]

recommending 3rd party playlists

etc

[bright elm]

yea

it was funny as fuck ngl

[honest heron]

respect it ngl

[quaint karma]

i got a good smoothness playlist

$10

[honest heron]

no dont share it here you will get warned my friend

!!

[quaint karma]

sorry

[bright elm]

[quaint karma]

[honest heron]

ive just been stealing everyone elses playlists and making my own frankenstein ones

[quaint karma]

yeah i’ve just been making my own anyways

my smoothness playlist is just a bunch of thin gauntlet which i play at different sensitivities

and some smooth your wrist

and uh whatever it’s called

[honest heron]

centering

[quaint karma]

no

the one that has reactivity

something strafes

[wicked river]

Smooth thin strafes

[quaint karma]

yeah

it’s really good

[honest heron]

smooth thin strafes raspberry

[quaint karma]

ik that one

just keeping it simple for now

[honest heron]

raspberry scens are fucked

STOP EVADING ME!!!!

[quaint karma]

yeah idk don’t really need all that for apex

i just noticed that sometimes i’d react back and would absolutely not be smooth whatsoever

mostly just in actual game

like when they’re ad spamming

and i figure being familiar with that motion should help

along with cata ic and whatnot ofc

[bright elm]

smooth thin strafes rasp

is actually pretty good

i like it

[wicked river]

Popcorn gauntlet raspberry

[bright elm]

that is a good one too

[wicked river]

5 minutes of hell

[bright elm]

(only saying that because im ranked #45 or smth like that)

[bright elm]

wym

its so fun!!!

[wicked river]

Why is it in the jade routine

[bright elm]

because its gamer

[wicked river]

Should be in masters

[honest heron]

smoothbot gauntlet raspberry

[quaint karma]

😬

[bright elm]

this scares me

[honest heron]

its a terrible scenario

impossibly difficult, takes forever

[bright elm]

i think

[honest heron]

(i am coping)

[bright elm]

its skill issue

[honest heron]

interesting argument. however, your mother

[bright elm]

the midrange short strafes raspberry

is actually all rng tho

[honest heron]

cancer

[bright elm]

that scenario sucks so much balls

[quaint karma]

on that note, time to play my other playlist

[wicked river]

That's like every raspberry scenario

[bright elm]

l

[honest heron]

im so ass

[bright elm]

not popcorn gauntlet

hard yes but not rng based like fking

[honest heron]

a lot of raspberry scenarios arent actually rng

[bright elm]

midrange

[wicked river]

[bright elm]

[honest heron]

and the high evasiveness is intentional because you're not actually supposed to hit the bot

[wicked river]

[slim lantern]

Loba lifeline are useless IMO

am I wrong?

[honest heron]

you are

loba is most definitely not useless

[bright elm]

loba no

lifeline

yes

[honest heron]

lifeline is obsolete

[bright elm]

because newcastle

exists

if they wanna make lifeline playable

[quaint karma]

i forgot what i got 511 on but i think it was 28cm

[bright elm]

they gotta bring back shield

[honest heron]

idk what sens i am on

you cant even check anymore

thanks kovaak

nvm

i am stupid

ignore

[quaint karma]

i play syw at 1.2 apex, .9 and .75

[bright elm]

just cheese it

[honest heron]

i am at 35cm

[bright elm]

45cm

[honest heron]

i get way higher score if i just use my arm

[quaint karma]

unironically low sens really good for learning smoothness but im sure yall have heard that before

so i play both

[honest heron]

its funny how i have way better smoothness with my arm

[quaint karma]

ulta low and really high

[honest heron]

and not my wrist

[quaint karma]

not on SYW tho

[honest heron]

my wrist just jitters

[quaint karma]

yup i noticed my wrist jittering as well

[bright elm]

thats normal

[quaint karma]

specifically when i tracked the bot to teh right

[bright elm]

ur arm is supposed to be smoother than ur wrist

iirc

[quaint karma]

yeah but im sure you can develop those muscles

by doing it more

in fact i even found a video for strengthening the muscles involved in doing that

👍

also helps with wrist health

but who cares about that

[bright elm]

anyways imma become the korean players

[quaint karma]

xd

[bright elm]

and play 1.2 800

[wicked river]

Click timing cool scen

But like

Can't fucking find it

Because looking up click timing just gives you every scen

[quaint karma]

i play that but 1600

welli play 1.3 now

.65

[bright elm]

thats high damn

wait

1.3 on 1600?

[quaint karma]

no

[bright elm]

[quaint karma]

.65 1600

[bright elm]
