Orrr I don't bother with it

#

I'm sure I could solo queue arenas up to like Plat

#

Then roller players get decent

#

At that point I can't trust randoms

stray valley
#

If you're comfortable with an r3 you can solo up to masters fairly easy

Takes time and a lot of frustration but it's very managable

#

don't play arenas, don't do it to yourself

#

better to do the 100 badge if anything

stray valley
lethal wraith
#

but ranked arenas is 💀

torn oyster
#

And I still want to do that

untold adder
#

i just want the badge

torn oyster
#

I need the perfect squad though

untold adder
#

it looks cool

#

if u wanna play i have a good third

torn oyster
#

I plan on doing it next year

untold adder
torn oyster
#

Atm I'm focused on getting back in to no fill kill grinding but

#

My aim has dropped since a slight issue at work, me upping osu sense.

untold adder
#

it's ok i play controller

torn oyster
#

Me not grinding apex at all

untold adder
#

u dont need to aim 🙂 we carry u

torn oyster
#

I've been more focused on content based stuff when playing than anything

#

I try not to play apex unless streaming

#

I've diminished play time since losing my original God squad I had for 6 seasons

#

My go to duo stopped playing

#

1v1? aimers

#

no one interested in ?

@buoyant murali can

#

sure

#

or I add you

#

i think it's better let me add you

#

i bet there are 50lasers

#

add oowoo

#

ill play later im eating

#

When I was a noob in apex I convinced myself that I needed to hit plat in arenas solo before going for plat in br. Hit it then was really surprised how much easier ranking up in br was. I actually like arenas i'll be sad to see it go if it does

quaint karma
#

tbh nowhere does it say that itll be removed

#

if theyre adding new modes

#

it could be just that

#

more modes

#

apex has like

#

milions and millions and millions of unique players every week

#

no reason to just have basicalyl 2 modes

charred scroll
#

I kinda hope it stays nice to grind specific weapons

#

Deathmatch would be fun I think

buoyant mural
#

add control

#

control ranked

charred scroll
#

control is mid

#

I'm sorry

lusty vault
#

Apex mobile has tdm

#

Just add that

charred scroll
#

tdm yes

lusty vault
#

Control is fun though

#

I enjoy winter express as well

charred scroll
#

Winter express is a jam i must say

#

except caustic makes it annoying sometimes

#

same as gun run, people playing caustic in LTM's tilts me so much lol

#

New mode would be overall good though for sure

dull falcon
#

control is better

#

like just mindless shooting

#

i need tdm on apex

charred scroll
#

You lack christmas spirit

#

tdm would be amazing

#

i wasnt in the loop beforehand but lowkey ppl who play edge for comp lowkey built different

#

like by the time you have to get into zones some teams just run eachother out of resources and the lobby shrinks

#

but then u just have to fight it out for a good spot or get shit on bc u cant get a good spot

alpine trail
gentle mantle
#

no no nothing like that just super impressive you are hitting consistent superglides on 240. I hit them everytime at 180 but since switching to 240 i find it much harder

gentle mantle
#

1v1 any1?

crimson tapir
#

how are we supposed to play winter express when people leave every single game i dont get it

dull falcon
gentle mantle
#

it is harder as the timing is harder on higher fps

alpine trail
#

i cant even do a single one at 144

wet skiff
#

yea the "window" for superglide is based on FPS. I play at like 265 fps and I couldn't get it to work even with a macro, so I just use the 30 fps config

#

could only get it to work up to like 180 or so FPS after that couldn't make it work at all

#

even with macro level timings

gentle mantle
#

gonna be a fun one

edgy crane
#

without config

wet skiff
#

don't care.

young pine
alpine trail
#

love it when both randoms take all the guns and do 16dmg each

young pine
#

What about when you get the gun but they take all the ammo

alpine trail
#

well atleast i can fire one clip then and dont have to melee or run

quaint karma
#

wtf higher levels than me

#

🥶

alpine trail
#

sitting in firing range and practising superglides is exhausting

quaint karma
#

these gu ys were playing btw

#

and shots 3 mags

#

i saw it

#

shot

unborn token
dull falcon
#

like u know the small yellow fences that you barely have to climb

torn oyster
#

I also don't use config, I've spent maybe 2 months practicing. The timing is almost there, I hit more than I don't but I still miss the crucial ones.

#

But I also cap my fps at 180

untold adder
gentle mantle
#

Allows u to change direction midair

#

Same mechanic as tap strafing

#

Accept from not neccesarrily w and not neccesarrily on scroll5

#

Basically lurching allows u to Change direction mid air without looking away from your opponent

stray valley
#

Lurch is just the mechanic that allows you to change directoin

#

Tap strafing is lurch

gentle mantle
#

Idk you bind spam w inputs to l3 on controler?

untold adder
#

not just W

#

you can tap strafe just by pressing L3 it's broken asf

quaint karma
#

sometimes i forget that most of the playerbase are literal cheaters

#

(controller players)

#

pushed this guy with full confidence cuz i can outaim most people on mnk

#

but it doesnt matter

#

he just has aimbot

#

lol

#

it doesnt even matter how many shots i hit

#

just the shots he hit

#

he coudlnt do htis on mnk in a million years

#

actual shitter

gentle mantle
#

you cant 1v1 anyone in this game like this

#

cus majority are on controller

quaint karma
#

i can

#

but not always

#

and id idnt hit my shots there

gentle mantle
#

just gotta play cover

quaint karma
#

i see a mirage and im like

#

i can push this

#

lmao

#

but yk the takeaway from this is

#

i simply gotta be better

#

plus my strafe is the easiest thing ever to hit on roller there

#

🥹

gentle mantle
#

how do you even strafe so roller doesnt hit you'

quaint karma
#

irregular longer strafes

wet skiff
quaint karma
#

any short strafe you make

#

AA will just microadjust for them

wet skiff
#

yea it's very counter intuitive because long strafing is bad vs mnk, but good vs controller, while short strafing is better vs mnk and literally suicide vs controller

quaint karma
#

hardest thing to master on mnk

#

is trivial on controller

#

its funny

#

like its so trivial you dont have to aim

#

AT ALL

#

get that

wet skiff
#

if you're gonna short strafe you may as well just grenade your feet

quaint karma
#

you dont have to do anything

#

and these people think theyre skilled

#

what a joke

gentle mantle
#

this is do dumb

#

doomed if u do doomed if u dont

edgy crane
alpine trail
#

its always hilarious to see when they try to destroy wattson fences and need 5 seconds to aim on it

echo inlet
#

It's only useful against dogshit controller players imo
you just have to anti mirror and aim assist does the rest.

#

long strafes

#

You shouldn't take straight 1v1s against controller players

alpine trail
#

yeah because u know whos on controller and who isnt

echo inlet
#

They suck at initial flicking so you have to use cover and play different sides and peak

echo inlet
#

I just don't ego chal anyone unless I'm 100% sure the enemy isn't on controller

dull falcon
#

does that thing still work

#

with setting r2 to sprint

alpine trail
#

bro plat randoms are so brainless

#

i down one crack 2 others and instead of fighting the 2v2 when theyre both full hp and have better position, they run off

alpine trail
quaint karma
#

you mean for aim assist on mnk?

#

yeah it works

gentle mantle
#

thanks for this one @wet skiff

charred scroll
#

Yeah, for ages I tried to develop the perfect strafe but eventually I realised that the best strafe to counter mouse is totally different to what counters controller. The only thing I've found that seems to help against controller is to slide into the chal perpendicular to your opponents viewing angle then tap strafe 180 degrees fairly quickly. I dunno though this technique might just be flashy copium

lethal wraith
#

the best way to counter a controller player is to sick your own controller player on them

wet skiff
#

yea best way to counter a controller player is with good positioning. Get height, and unpeek when they look at you

charred scroll
#

@lethal wraith I legit started playing with a roller player recently for this reason but he's so arrogant and cocky that it's hard to deal with him sometimes. He always top frags in ranked the goes on about the skill difference between him and the other mouse guy. Haven't been inviting him to ranked sessions lately cos he's too annoying, even though we just farm RP with the guy

#

@wet skiff But I waaaant to peak and take em' to beam city 😭

wet skiff
#

it's always so funny when controller players talk about skill

#

buddy, if I had 40% of an aimbot, i'd be good too

charred scroll
#

They almost all brag constantly

lethal wraith
#

it's because aa can roll anyone

#

and if you're good at something, you ignore the rest of your skillset

warped lake
#

Roller players when they touch M&K Borpaspin

#

I have one of those friends too, he’s walking aimbot. But he’s just stupid when it comes to decision making.

#

Always ego chals 😪

charred scroll
#

sarcasm obviously

warped lake
#

Friend is a prime example of that

#

Literally quit Apex after his configs got messed up and couldn’t tap strafe anymore 🤣

charred scroll
#

It actually makes me legitimately sad that they can config and macro all movement techniques aaand get aim assist like how is this okay

warped lake
#

Aren’t pros in ALGS not allowed to use macros to tap strafe ?

charred scroll
#

Not allowed in ALGS but apparently it's fine in ranked

#

I think it's shady though personally

naive peak
#

I know it'll obscure sound, but listening to Razormind while playing Apex changes it from "Should I third party this team?" to "YEAHHHH JUMP PAD STIM RUSHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

#

The song

quaint karma
#

its so jarring

#

plugging in roller in firing range after 1v1ing on mnk

#

and noticing you actually cant pull off the enemy

#

cuz 4-3 + rotational AA slows everything down so much

#

you just HAVE to hit them

#

lol

all skill

what is going on with apex there is a weird lag where only like 1 person on the team has it

idk, dont watch him

i dont think master is an accomplishment

quaint karma
#

i mean how many hours does he have

#

if he has like 50 then it is

#

💀

#

imagine doing all this

#

and then having aim assist

#

whats odd is that his aim barely looks any better than mine on controller

#

and i dont play controller

#

im literally just a walking turret on the roller

#

gotta love having humanly impossible movement on controller alongside humanly impossible aim

left joy stick

but press down

#

equivilent on pressing down scrollwheel i think

Tap strafing is actually easier on roller with macros. If the casuals figure out how to do it were all even more fucked

@alpine trail i will be building that squad sooner than i thought for the 100 win streak.

It has to happen before arenas gets removed. It's looking more and more likely

Friday would be best. But I'm talking like a 6-7-8 hour session and if it doesn't get broken

Finishing on sat

Assuming your duo is also roller

HUH?

wait wait

#

do you think I'm roller or just assuming he's roller

torn oyster

Assuming they are

alpine trail
#

oh okay okay LMFAO

#

7:30 pst tomorrow if you wanna play we can get it done just like that

torn oyster
#

"Just like that"

#

I mean tomorrow is fine too, but can it be sooner. Or Is it a fixed time

alpine trail
#

my team mate gets home from school at that time

#

I know for sure we can get it fast with him

I'll take your word for it. I couldn't care about arenas ranked badge but. Ima need that 100 wins before it's gone for good

hello is there any downside in playing 104 fov instead of 110?

torn oyster
#

Preference

#

The only downside is how much of the screen you're looking at

#

Most play from 104-110/120

#

I've been a 120 fov player since I can last remember

alpine trail
vague nexus
#

If you are a movement player the higher the better, cause you fight close range mainly
But if you play ranked and have good positioning lower fov lets you see the target better

#

Its preference

alpine trail
#

ok

torn oyster
#

I mean iirc shiv plays at 90

vague nexus
#

I play at 110 but 104-6 is alright too

torn oyster
#

But he's mechanical not movement based

#

After playing 120 so Long, 106 seems unnatural to me

#

the timing is so weird.

gentle mantle
#

sa tap strafe?

torn oyster
#

sa/ds but the timing isnt the same as W and crouch. bc i have to jump with mouse wheel, crouch and then do ds/sa which feels weird to move

gentle mantle
#

ewww

#

you superglide with scroll

#

why would you do that to yourself

torn oyster
#

because i find its more acc than ctrl and spacebar

gentle mantle
#

fair

#

whatever ur consistent with ig

torn oyster
#

with mouse wheel you have multiple inputs happening per mouse wheel.

#

otherwise its spamming spacebar which isnt efficient

gentle mantle
#

but you cant spam it

#

otherwise u mess up timing

#

no?

torn oyster
#

yes and no, more no than yes.

#

it can do it but yeah, its a timing thing

gentle mantle
#

i mean i use space ctrl

#

which is a bit weird

#

most people just "roll" from space to c

torn oyster
#

this one is the bane of my existence. ive gotten 100% acc so many times but the score is the same due to a late start.

#

does anyone else think that wattson being able to connect a node on the other side of the door when the door is closed is actually a dumb mechanic and needs to be removed? It doesn't really make sense since everything in the game can be interacted with only when there is no obstruction in between the player and the object

torn oyster
#

30 down, 70 to go

gentle mantle
#

good stuff

lethal wraith
#

in the end the wattson node trick is nothing but that, a trick

sonic pasture
lethal wraith
#

yeah but it pulls you through walls

#

the reason wattson can node trhough doors is because the fences destroy doors

sonic pasture
#

yes, it is not what I am talking about

lethal wraith
#

the fact that fences destroy doors actually make them kind of makes fences not optimal

#

the node door trick isn't going to mess you up much if you're paying attention for most part

#

unless it goes through two doors

sonic pasture
#

fences destoying doors is a side effect. fences shocking the enemy who was on the other side is the main goal

lethal wraith
#

yeah but the reason it can go through doors is because it destroys doors

#

it's not like gas that doesn't destroy them and gets blocked by doors

sonic pasture
#
  1. i have no problem with a node connecting through a door
  2. i am talking about wattson being able to interact with an object or rather press e on something that isn't in the standard interact distance
lethal wraith
#

but why?

#

you do realize Caustic can chuck gas right

#

wattson node placement range is also pretty small

#

the reach is big, but that's so the legend isn't awkward to use

#

currently you can remove nodes from a massive distance

#

and you could always do that pretty much

#

even without interacting you can pull out a fence and right click to remove far away fences

sonic pasture
# lethal wraith the reach is big, but that's so the legend isn't awkward to use

again the reach can be longer than what it is now. but it makes no sense to interact with something that has a barricade in between. imagine being able to loot a box or recover a banner with a door in between? makes no sense right

and regarding caustic, he throws a can that inflates itself due to pressure. completely believable. it makes sense to some extent

lethal wraith
#

and the nodes are connected by a magnetic field not a wire

#

the "no sense" point makes no sense to me

#

this is a video game

#

this isn't what makes or breaks Wattson

#

kind of a weird point to get hung up on

#

did you get stunned like that or what? monkaHmm

sonic pasture
#

it doesn't have to break a game to initiate a converation about nerfing something.

#

are you a wattson main or something? you are getting defensive to the point that you are kinda making it more obvious by the second

lethal wraith
#

there's no way that's your biggest issue with wattson

#

the fucking node trick? really?

#

that's where you draw the line?

#

I would shorten the stun duration

#

and remove the aim slow if anything

#

I don't care about something so insignificant

sonic pasture
#

i am actually fine with the stun duration. if someone is dumb enough to go through a fence, they deserve to die

lethal wraith
#

disagree

#

running into a single ability shouldn't be an instadeath

#

I know it's a hot take in ability legends

sonic pasture
#

if the door trick wasn't a thing, would you ask t shorten the duration?

lethal wraith
#

yes

sonic pasture
#

*would you still

lethal wraith
#

all a wattson has to do or her teammate is to sit on a node

#

and it's p much non-existant to the enemy

#

the reactivation timer got buffed insanly hard

#

even then I still don't think Wattson is a legend that necessarily needs the most focus

#

her fences being instadeath are pretty stupid, but it's not the biggest issue to me personally

sonic pasture
#

tbh, there is only one thing that needs focus and that is fixing audio. to be brutally honest.

#

*the most focus

#

but doesn't mean we should not talk about other issues.

i dont' even go against wattsons. probably one a week. i was watching some video and i actually never knew that she can interact with a node that is on the other side. i thought she has to first go near and press q to initiate a connect and then go to the other side of the door and press q (or E) on the other node.

lethal wraith

sonic pasture
#

is there any good reason behind the issue. is it because of the server or engine? has anyone leaked info on this?

lethal wraith
#

only guesses from the community basically

sonic pasture
#

a 9/10 game ruined by audio. sucks 😦

lethal wraith
#

doesn't really help that Respawn is kinda killing it with slow updates

sonic pasture
#

I basically forced myself to play seer the whole of last season just to counter the shitty audio 😕

lethal wraith
#

eh no audio isn't that bad once you get used to it

#

I personally hate stuff like bh/seer and movement creep

sonic pasture
#

By movement creep are you talking about the techs or movement legends?

lethal wraith
#

movement abilities

sonic pasture
#

Fair enough. I am pretty sure you have horizon's q in mind

lethal wraith

horizon q and valk jetpack

#

well

#

it took a whole 100 hours of console playtime

#

but i hit masters

#

have not used roller in like 7 years

#

and my peak was d4 on pc kbm

#

nice

dull falcon
#

idk how to go ab it

exotic flint
#

took me 20-30 hours to get used to it but by the time my account was level 20 and could play ranked i was better than i was on pc

#

i still miss kbm tho roller is so boring

#

twiddle thumbs until you see 197 appear on your screen

exotic flint
#

"i only have my thumbs and two joysticks and you have your whole arm!!!!"

#

yeah well my thumbs are better than my arm

#

arm plus ~5k hours on kbm games vs thumbs with 100 hours who wins

#

(its thumbs)

dull falcon
#

my brain is not wired in this way i swear

exotic flint
#

and i dont get the arguement mnk is better for long range fights

#

like yeah it prob is when you get insane at controlling recoil or jitter aiming

#

but i just move my right thumb down a lil on my kontrol freek and i win

dull falcon
#

this is statistically true for apex

wintry cypress
exotic flint
#

but any fights within 20m its gg

wintry cypress
#

actually i can still use thumb with palm grip

#

lol

exotic flint
#

it was absurd had a purple mag car and 1 clipped two guys with blue shield in the same mag

wintry cypress
#

???

#

how

#

just aim at head

#

or smth?

dull falcon
#

if i i play anything other than 3-3 linear i just cant control it

exotic flint
#

could try 4-3 classic it’s a lil slower

#

but majority of people not on alc use 4-4 classic

#

linear honesty feels nicer to me too but classic is just better for AA

#

i also just sat in range for a bit doing target switching and then scout of action just to get used to sens

wet skiff
#

the basics of controller is basically just focusing hard on abusing aim assist, the easiest way to do that is practicing aiming with your left stick. Once you have a good understanding of that and how to abuse it, you can start practicing more right stick aiming so you can begin counter strafing and get a huge advantage vs other controller players.

#

since you're coming from MNK, your default mindset is to aim, which you are doing with right stick, but that really often ends up hurting because you fight the AA. You have to re-train your brain around the aim assist first

dull falcon
#

i would prefer if i could isolate practice like it is for mnk

#

i almost went back to 1.2 sens yesterday

echo inlet
wet skiff
# echo inlet I would recommend if you're new to controller playing 4-3 classic is useless bec...

that's exactly why you should be using it. You want to specifically retrain how you approach aiming with maximum abuse towards aim assist - that's the entire crutch of controller. Once you are comfortable abusing the aim assist you can start messing around with your settings and getting right stick more involved. But to start with you just need to train your brain to stop aiming and let aim assist do that for you

#

nearly every single mnk to controller player I've seen has made the same mistake, they try too hard to aim and end up fighting the aim assist. It's a fundamental difference in how you approach hitting the target and you have to retrain your brain to understand that, and focusing more on abusing aim assist to start is the best place to do that

i played r5 again with roller yesterday

#

i swear to god

#

i cant pull away from the enemy

#

the game WANTS me to hit them for 200

#

and its so funny when they ras strafe thinking it does anything

#

💀

#

its a joke how easy it is

torn oyster
#

ras strafe on config for r5 is kinda sad

quaint karma
#

why would you need a config for ras strafing

torn oyster
#

Why do people need one for superglides.
No idea either.

#

They just exist

quaint karma
#

one has precise timing

#

the other doesnt

#

timing that gets harder the higher your frames are

wet skiff
#

tbh I never understood the controller players saying that "mnk has movement". aim assist counters movement. mnk movement is only good against other mnk players.

quaint karma
#

lol

#

i saw people bouncing all around in front of my face

#

the roller does not care

#

it doesnt do anything if youre good on mnk either

#

but its just so easy on roller

#

like actually

#

it just microadjusts for everything

#

i just hold my stick in the general direction theyre going

#

thats it

torn oyster
#

The arena grind going against mostly rollers hasn't been that bad. I figured it was going to be much much worse

dull falcon
#

ur not streaming it @torn oyster

tepid salmon
#

maybe its higher settings or sum

quaint karma
#

voltaic?

#

i forgot

#

its either that one

#

cuz that one is active

#

or some NA one later on

#

why @tepid salmon

#

if your aim assist doesnt work on r5 its cuz youre above 144fps

tepid salmon
#

Yeah I know im just saying some of them have stupid settings

#

thats why I quit r5 ngl I really liked the eu server cause you didnt get beamed by roller in close quarter which it literally only is, but since the voltaic server died there you just need to play the na ones and they're infected with rollers

quaint karma
#

you can type controllersummary into console

#

and it shows everyone who has one plugged in(?)

#

or is playing with it rn

#

probably that

tepid salmon
#

oh wait the 1v1 server is alive

quaint karma
#

yes

tepid salmon
#

ohh alright

quaint karma
#

never saw a lot of rollers

#

most ive seen was 2

tepid salmon
#

time to redownload it lmao

lethal wraith
#

I thought voltaic was 0.1?

quaint karma
#

i think i played voltaic with it

#

but i can try again later

tepid salmon
#

alright

torn oyster
wet skiff
#

for R5, controller = 144 fps cap, for mnk = 180-189 fps cap

#

it's built on the old version of the game where the stutter issue is not fixed so you can't uncap. Not sure if you can play higher than 144 on live yet for controller

dull falcon
#

why is it season 3 that they modded

#

i dont understand if they coculd get a newer season idak

dull falcon
lethal wraith
#

because season 3 are the latest files Respawn leaked

#

iirc

#

like the entire thing was just there in the download

#

it was removed later on

dull falcon
#

i hope they accidentally leak someother stuff

lethal wraith
#

doubt it at this point

#

except for datamining that is

#

in the end Respawn is really an*l about not letting people have access to things

#

you need internet connection to open apex, to get on firing range you need to join a server

#

no access to console, configs locked down over time

dull falcon
wet skiff
#

ok well that's not even a respawn thing, NOBODY wants their entire codebase leaked

#

that's a massive liability legally, and worse, it gives cheaters free range on developing and testing cheats.

lethal wraith
#

I didn't say that

#

who are you talking to

wet skiff
#

in the end Respawn is really an*l about not letting people have access to things

Idk this kind of implies you think respawn should people have access to that sort of thing

#

maybe not intentional but implied for sure

lethal wraith
#

not at all

#

a lot of games have server hosting capabilities for people

#

I think csgo is alive thanks to community stuff

wet skiff
#

I agree with that, though it's not as common because it can really enable cheaters a lot.

imo, though, especially for fps game, every single one should have replays, API for stats and match history, and the ability to create custom games. That definitely is something that respawn really drops the ball on.

PUBG is a good example and had some really neat community made features with the stat API, including a really cool one where you could enter your name and find out every streamer POV engagement with you, so you could easily find their povs of your fights. That was such a fun feature.

After every session check it and you'd find a dozen streamers you fought during the day and could see their pov and reaction.

And since they could create custom games with their own rules etc at any time, it meant that community tournaments were common or you could run scrims anytime you want. The amateur comp scene for PUBG was amazing, there was a tourney every day of the week

bro everytime i try to flank i get foccused

lethal wraith

flanking is a team manoeuvre

solo it can be kind of iffy

because flanking solo usually just gives you the drop on someone

best guide to learn superglide and tap strafe?

torn oyster
#

Tap strafe can be summed up in one keybind.
move forward to either mouse up or mouse down

#

Start sprinting near an edge, slide jump off, scroll the wheel a decent amount and turn around.

#

@alpine trail

#

Supergliding is a movement tech that requires timing to get right.

alpine trail
torn oyster
#

That's tap strafe

#

That's done by using mouse forward from mouse wheel letting go of w and holding a or d while turning

#

A turning left and d turning right

quaint karma
#

wtf is mouse forward

#

learn how to airstrafe

#

if you know what airstrafing is you can learn how to tapstrafe

#

and tapstrafing is just actuating scrollwheel while sharply airstrafing basically (with W bound to scrollwheel)

#

if you do that within .5s after any jump

#

you can tapstrafe

#

turning + an A or D input

#

but thats just airstrafing

#

so like i said

#

learn airstrafing

#

anytime youre in the air you can airstrafe
