apex

[proven pulsar]

Are you over extending when landing

@quaint karma copped the OP1 should get it on Monday

[twilit flicker]

its so good

[half salmon]

either stolen account or spoofed

[next wren]

whats a good sens range for this game?

[torn oyster]

28-35cm

i personally use 30.5cm (1600 .85)

800 1.7 alternativly

[next wren]

thank you

[torn oyster]

personally when playing games avoid using what others use, soley because they use it.
as it may work for them, but not for you.
can always have fast moving sens but set your ads sens to adjust for it

[next wren]

yup, I have been using 0.86 1600 dpi so this works out, I was just confused because my trakcing feels really good but the nwhen I switch to valorant and use the same sens I cant aim at all

should I lower my sens when playing val or is it just a matter of getting better

[torn oyster]

tacfps requires a lower sens (not ideally but its prefered by most)

as you arent tracking, its more-flicking and crosshair placement

[next wren]

how much should I lower my sens by?

[torn oyster]

its on a person to person basis, there isnt a 1 sens for all kind of thing

experiment and find out what works for you

[twilit flicker]

just play whatever u like its not that deep

[half salmon]

1.2 800dpi is like the 4-3 linear of mnk

[placid root]

Bro, I swear I have not heard a single footstep this season

What is going on

[bright elm]

28-45

i either use like 1.2, 1.5, or 1.7

rn im using 1.2

800 dpi

[dull falcon]

this is true

a small room for margin of error

im on high sens rn

[raven hull]

it do be like that, the audio has been abhorrent this season. I've had lobas q on me with 0 audio, revs ult 2m away from me with no audio and full teams sprint up to me with nothing

its so fucking bad

[barren jackal]

Who has in your opinion the most consistently good aim in Apex?

wanna see how close mnk players are to aim assist consistency nowadays

[spiral mirage]

LETS GO

[spiral mirage]

Soar Hollow is a smooth operator

[twilit flicker]

mav

[half salmon]

in terms of pros zer0 the goat

[barren jackal]

hmm yes he is good, have been following him for nearly 3 years but I don't think he is the best (in terms of consistency)

unfortunately he doesn't grind the game as much as back in the days because his interests in gaming had a slight shift, so I doubt that he is still as consistent as other players currently are. He is still one of the goats tho

[barren jackal]

solid take

[barren jackal]

I know Zer0 only as a controller player but I'll have to watch him play mnk, have heard lot of good things about him

[half salmon]

...... WHATTTTTTTTTTTT

please tell me ur trolling

[barren jackal]

yeah sadly i don't really follow the pro scene

or maybe i am stupid and my memory is completly wrong?

[half salmon]

he is NOT controller

[barren jackal]

did he play ALGS 2023 finals on mnk?

[half salmon]

he played his entire career on mnk

[barren jackal]

wtf okay then i'm schizo

[half salmon]

if u think his aim is controller then that says alot on how good he is

[barren jackal]

no i don't think i've watched him at all

but for some reason i remember him being someone equal to Hal. Overall mechanically good, but switched to controller

so i guess i'm stupid lol

but thanks for educating me lmfao

[spiral mirage]

Zer0 is arguably just as good an IGL as Hal

Also the boys that were in BLVKHVND last ALGS are pretty crazy mnk players

Particularly StrafingFlame

Their new team is Legends Gaming

[mortal hatch]

he's not controller

[mortal hatch]

yes i agree, they dominated Match Day #8 on APAC-S PL earlier

25 point lead

[barren jackal]

yes i know, others have already clarified it

[mortal hatch]

[wintry cypress]

@light rapids Holy shit DRG is amazing

I played 5 hours of it yesterday with a friend

[light rapids]

🙏

[thick osprey]

Hi guys, i'm new here and i've just completed my first novice benchmark routine. I also just somewhat realized that my hipfire sens is a bit too high as I mostly overshooted my targets. Do you guys have any clue on what math should be done to change hipfire sens while keeping ads sens the same?

Currently at 950dpi which suits me best with pointer on windows at 6, in-game hipfire is 2.2 which is 19.8cm/360 and ADS is 0.5 at around 39.7cm/360.

I'd like to test out 1.8 hipfire at 24.3cm/360 while keeping the 39.7cm/360 ADS.

EDIT: Nevermind, I found.
Currently at 2.2 hipfire, 0.5 ADS. So 2.2/0.5= 1.1 -- Now that you have the actual value of your ADS sens, you divide it by the new hipfire sens you'd want to use so for me i'll go 1.1/1.8= 0.61
So my new hipfire is 1.8 going to 24.3cm/360 and ADS changes to 0.61 to keep the 39.7cm/360.

[mighty glacier]

Your sens is too high

[mighty glacier]

Strafingflame
Mav
Zer0
Taskmast33r

But the smothest tracking has to be snake

[barren jackal]

yeah snake is absolutely nuts

[mighty glacier]

Idk why he dont try pro 😦

[torn oyster]

I just wanna use it

[stray valley]

Need that FedEx Premium

[twilit flicker]

rawaccel is safe in apex right

[toxic magnet]

it’s good

[toxic magnet]

my economy got delivered in 3 days

[little verge]

Tfw FedEx sucks balls locally and will invariably add two more days before I get my SP-004

Shouldn't have rushed that morning and just spent the cash on DHL.

[torn oyster]

I'm actually not even sure if it's even there

Bc I did the pay in 4 thing bc save money where u can.
And it's still pending on my end

It's temp and I'm sure it will all come out at once if anything.

Which wouldn't be ideal lol.

[torn oyster]

Using obsidian pros?

[toxic magnet]

im using Corepads Control

but im liking it

i dont think its worth over the 3.0 but its a nice pad if you dont got one

[torn oyster]

I'll prob replace jades with obsidian when I get mine

Yh I have 3.0 but I've been needing a reason to give it to a mate.

Mf been playing apex on the most amazon type mousepads

[toxic magnet]

LMFAO

i remember those days

the lill 10 dollar pads

[torn oyster]

Oh me too.
Amazon basic 10$ pad

Yh lmao

Then got my gsrse in s1

[toxic magnet]

i wanna try an artisan while its cheap

[torn oyster]

Ran that for a fat minute

[toxic magnet]

but idk if i can justify over 300 for mousepads in a month

[torn oyster]

Yh I can't either.

I can't even justify this one honestly

[toxic magnet]

i justified this one as its a new experience and wanted to see how this was comapared to the 3.0

[torn oyster]

From what I heard it's nicer than the 3.0

And 3.0 was already great

[toxic magnet]

i wanted the skypad carry case so got one with a carry case THEN the 4.0 got announced

[torn oyster]

F

[toxic magnet]

the next day so i got that when it became available for me

and now i really wanna get a Hien

[toxic magnet]

i love the fact you dont need a sleeve with the 4.0

and the sillicone backing of the pad is a W

reminds me of my superglide

[torn oyster]

Yeah that was also pretty compelling

[toxic magnet]

alot of people say that its faster then the 3.0 idk if its QC but mine feels like i get more control

[torn oyster]

I felt like using sleeve on skypad made it faster than it already does

Not to mention jades

[toxic magnet]

rn im using stock skates on the X2-H es

and they work great on the 4.0

i have some Corepad airs but i dont wanna be putting them on a glass pad

[torn oyster]

Fair.
My hts4k has jades when I use my voltaic pad

And then my gsrse collecting dust in it's box

[toxic magnet]

how are jades never really thought much into them or obsidians

[twilit flicker]

good

[vernal crescent]

can i play slow sens in apex?

[toxic magnet]

you can play any sens in apex

[vernal crescent]

if i play uh

at around

1sec

56cm

can i kill movement player?

[torn oyster]

Yh they're pretty great in comparison

I use dots

Idt wallhack was accepting pay in 4 as a merchant so I gotta sort that out when I get home I think

I got the authorization emails but plan hasn't started.

So idk if the order even went through.

Might just need to wait for order to be filled on their end I think

[little verge]

Yeah it's probably just fulfilling. Probably a large volume on their end because I don't think mine has finished processing either.

[torn oyster]

Yeah that was my guess

I did it as it dropped and I'm sure a lot of people did too

That and it is a weekend

[little verge]

Yeah, their previous drops at least were limited events so the traffic was nuts but the overall fulfillment was smaller. I imagine this is probably more popular than they were anticipating.

[arctic violet]

wooting coming this week, I'm so hyped

[toxic magnet]

i want one so bad

[hazy shadow]

Appreciate all support and likes :)

[ashen trench]

wrong channel

[dull falcon]

^

[mighty glacier]

Why wrong channel.?

[sonic marlin]

#1133816529952194693 is the right channel

[ornate gorge]

if ur pad is huge and u can 180's comfortably

[lusty elk]

set my wooting sense too high and now I have to stop fat fingering my Q... it's a mess sometimes

[dull falcon]

https://outplayed.tv/media/j4xyzQ

[woeful garnet]

is there sbmm in pubs

i thought they fixed this

[woeful garnet]

if u play it right of course

killing movement players is literally just waiting for them to stop doing movement and then shooting them

[devout tusk]

If you cant aim at them then be somewhere they dont have 900 movement options to endlessly chain together, or be far enough away that they cant hipfire you to death

[woeful garnet]

or

just play controller

but thats the easy way out

[spiral mirage]

Hidden mmr based

But afaik it isnt hard it's just enough to piss you off every game

[woeful garnet]

its pissing me off alright

im getting pubs games where theres 10 squads ring 4

[spiral mirage]

Modern gaming moment

SBMM MMR-based mm EOMM

All of them are ploys and they can all go to hell

[light rapids]

what

its literally the other way around

3 squads ring 1

[woeful garnet]

we have different lobbies

[light rapids]

i can tell

🤔

[toxic magnet]

any artisan users tried a zero?

[vague nexus]

I did

It was okay

But overpriced

One thread broke loose in the middle

Was annoying so i got a pulsar glass pad

[toxic magnet]

damn

i’ve been on glass for 2 years i wanna try something with more control to see how i like it

[bitter moat]

zero is good

I'm a mid enjoyer

soft and xsoft feel

[wintry cypress]

anyone know when 3 strikes is coming back? 😭

[wintry cypress]

lol ive had 2 zeros and neither have had that happen

[wintry cypress]

i have the soft and it feels pretty good tbh

except for when its dirty

[vague nexus]

Its a good pad, but it is overpriced

[twilit flicker]

most overrated pad i ever tried

hien better

[toxic magnet]

i got that too

[astral nebula]

meh

better hayate otsu for apex

once zero is broken, imo its become muddy

but glasspad is the best

[toxic magnet]

i love glass pads but i just wanna try something with a little more control

[long matrix]

Raiden 😼

[mental ridge]

try the shidenkai its not that fast but has similar properties

[torn oyster]

@toxic magnet

[toxic magnet]

hugeeee

[mental ridge]

HACKER CONFIRMED

[torn oyster]

[mental ridge]

exposed ima tell outhides

[toxic magnet]

you will love it

i’m still using mine

all i’m saying is if you have a gamer as a delivery driver you will get weird looks

i got weird looks from mine when he saw wallhack

[mental ridge]

how fast ist it compared to a sp02 sp03 and shidenkai v2

[mental ridge]

only of hes a noob roller gamer

[toxic magnet]

i think skypad 3.0 is a little faster

[mental ridge]

so its one if the fastest glass pads?

[fathom fiber]

What mouse should I get for apex Razar viper Mini or logitech g305?

[wintry cypress]

Holy shit anime voice

[light rapids]

🐌 👴

[wintry cypress]

Nah im bad at movement

[mental ridge]

yeah shes a cutie

[mental ridge]

just switch to 1 3 1 and spam your mousewheel ras strafes arent that hard

its all about figuring out where and how to do them subconciously

[undone slate]

Pgti so good https://streamable.com/4ni21y

[mental ridge]

we need a laserpointer emote

[twilit flicker]

hal on r5

😃

[wintry cypress]

Nahhh i cant do 1 3 1 bro that shit is cursed

But yeah i mean i can do some basic movement but nothing fancy

[arctic violet]

nah wooting is cheating, superglide and mantle are so free, insane

[hallow pawn]

for 30 min or so yea

[mental ridge]

since when does one need a wooting for mantle jumps?

superglide yes

[mental ridge]

[nova crypt]

SO COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL 😄

[wintry cypress]

And i cant do either

I think i hit 5 superglides in total

All 5 were before i upgraded my pc

[twilit flicker]

how can u even play apex without movement

snoozefest

[sonic marlin]

Super glide is easier on lower FPS

[arctic violet]

i say u need it?😂

[arctic violet]

play with different actuation point and find ur preference

[wintry cypress]

Aim lol

I just do wallbounces/tapstrafing and zipjumps

Thats it

Basic af

[wintry cypress]

Yes

Thats why i was hitting more before i upgraded

[wintry cypress]

I dont have wooting thingy

[mental ridge]

u dont get what im saying ?

why does one need a wooting to make mantle jumos easy

[arctic violet]

i say buy a wooting because mantle jump is easier? u tripping dude

i was able to superglide and mantle jump even without wooting

tryna mock for no reason ahah

[light rapids]

same except i cant aim

[mental ridge]

you missunderstand me lol why are u offended im not attacking you

[wintry cypress]

Same atm

I think ive lost like 30% skill in apex

Just became a dumb fuck

Aim coming back tho

[light rapids]

should get back into kovaaksing tbh
like i can literally feel my mouse control isnt as good as it used to be

[mental ridge]

i need somebody to write a script that i cant open apex if i havent played 30 seriouse minutes of kovaaks

[wintry cypress]

Yea i been kovaaksing again last 3-4 weeks and my aim been a lot better again

All im doing is tracking atm as well

Literally dont have time for clicking + i dont play clicking games atm

[light rapids]

wanna get masters complete at some point

but since i started playing kovaaks

its like in phases

[wintry cypress]

I can relate to that

At first i was grinding consistently for like 1.5 years then some breaks

And last year i may as well not have been playing

[light rapids]

ill be hardgrinding for like 2 months

[wintry cypress]

Still got masters tho

[light rapids]

and then stop for half a year

[mental ridge]

how do u guys motivate yourself to grind kovaaks

[light rapids]

idk at some popint im just too fed up with how ass i am

[wintry cypress]

First i watch hollow and other good aimers play apex for 1-2 weeks

Then i get into aimtraining

And from there its just routine and discipline

[mental ridge]

im realy realy bad at both

[wintry cypress]

Rip 😭

Im not cause ive been going gym for god knows how long

[mental ridge]

im look up to you

[undone slate]

I set a timer for every hour and no matter what I play for at least 20 minutes when timer goes off

[wintry cypress]

Tbf i used to enjoy kovaaks a fuckton back in the day lol

Im sure i can enjoy it again if i put in enough time

[mental ridge]

like u play 1 hour of apex and then when the timer goes of 20 mins of kovaaks? sounds interesting

[warped lake]

Can anyone tell me why my game stutters a fuck ton when I play mnk

But when I play controller it never stutters???

[torn oyster]

VT Customs event going on now - cnmleyfd

TDM / Control depending on people

[torn oyster]

chances are polling rate is to high, double check mouse firmware or check another mouse

game occasionally freaks out at 4k+

[warped lake]

I have a final mouse starlight 12 I use for apex

So it should be 1k polling

[torn oyster]

uninstall and reinstall firmware.

[warped lake]

There’s no firmware either

So I’m kinda SOL

[torn oyster]

then plug it in

and do it in firing range

put it back on dongle and try again

[warped lake]

Gotcha I’ll try that

If that doesn’t work I’m buying a new mouse

With adjustable polling

And an actual software menu

[torn oyster]

fm just wonky overall

cool looking mouse though

its why i dont own one

over hyped, over priced for all those issues

[warped lake]

Yeah I bought a ULX on the last drop, really nice but I prefer my SL12

Overpriced for not a lot of cool

Design is nice but I’ll just buy a g wolves mouse or something

[torn oyster]

HTS4k / BeastX i would recommend

[twilit flicker]

op1

[torn oyster]

op1 is solid if u like cable

kinda want one myself

[twilit flicker]

best mouse i ever touched

[torn oyster]

my last bit of big spending went to sp-004

for a bit

[pearl rapids]

BeastX is 😍

[half salmon]

gwolves quality control isnt the best

rn i bought a sora v2

[ornate gorge]

fuck GWOLVES

if its still on amazon get it there

but my mouse literally came broken

[torn oyster]

yh my hts had a broken dongle port so it wouldnt work

returned on amazon and got the hts4k

works perfectly still

but it should be good now

[mental ridge]

i kinda wanna get a skypad but i dont wanna have skate problems... on my xsoft lads i prefer fullsize but im certain dots are better for glass

[radiant ridge]

the last time i used a hardpad was a steelseries 4hd like 15+ years ago. kinda glad they've made a comeback

[vernal crescent]

any1 want to play apex? im bronze 3 lol

[torn oyster]

Skypad is great

[mighty glacier]

Agree
Got the mini and is just unbeateable

[pearl rapids]

real

[bitter moat]

mini too small 😦

wont fit in the grippers

I have small hands xd

no such thing

deathadder v3 any variation

people really like pulsar's xlite as well I think

[mental ridge]

oh yeah the glorified xbox controller

[bitter moat]

lamzu thorn is good too

[bitter moat]

ergo mice are too big man

weird

[mental ridge]

it runs on batteries

BATTERIES

[bitter moat]

???

not dav3 pro

[main merlin]

Got atlantis mini already. Don't doubt thorn is good

[restive surge]

I think for gaming they are not really reliable

Thats just my opinion though

I use 1 mouse for gamign and an ergo one for "productivity"

[bitter moat]

I've tried dav3 pro and thorn. thorn was by far a better fit for me. they are all "flagship" mice. fit is king. especially when it comes to ergos

[bitter moat]

this does not make sense

they are the same mice

same sensors

just different shape

[restive surge]

Too big in my opinion

Thats what I mean by it

[bitter moat]

gotcha

yeah just personal pref

[restive surge]

Exactly

[spiral mirage]

Why the heck is my sliding so slow?

I watch yt and those bastards ar emoving faster

[devout tusk]

Whats your fov

[fathom fiber]

I was 110

I switched it to like 93

[fathom fiber]

I don't knwo why it seems slow to me.

[raven hull]

fov impacts how fast the game feels

[fathom fiber]

Yea I also increased my sens

[devout tusk]

This is why, low fov feels slower but you are going the same speed as them

[fathom fiber]

Yea my movement feels sticky and not natural

I think I will stick to 93 for a few days just to see the difference

[twilit flicker]

who is mauti1tap

[arctic violet]

italian streamer

[torn oyster]

As of today I'm no longer going to play on "120" fov.

Ima go back to 110

[novel oracle]

Does stretch res change your sensitivity?

[twilit flicker]

no

[spice jungle]

i was also hesitant of getting a glasspad (sorry late to convo). i decided to get a not popular one, but a control glass pad, the wraith glass pad, and am so glad i switched from my hayate otsu xsoft. the micro adjustments i can make on glass is unreal vs even on an artisan and tension aiming with pressing down. not trying to sell you here, just from the week ive been on it.

https://streamable.com/8ywz7v also only a week on doing movement and aiming routines, and feel like my mouse control has doubled, only thing keeping me from doing voltaic was sitting down and doing an hour long session, but didnt know they had game specific routines u can just go along and warm up too and stop half way through or playlists. i love this so far

[mental ridge]

do red shield and set dummies to strafe speed run and strafe pattern randome

[mental ridge]

i realy love my shidenkai v2 xsoft coz its completely different different than my raidens xsoft / mid
idk if going for a glass pad would change anything tho since there is basically no increased static friction on my shidenkai v2

[spice jungle]

shindenkai v2 is the one pad i always wanted to try/plan on trying. its kinda hybrid glass kinda like the vancer ice back in the day.

[spice jungle]

and got it, yeah id just hopped on, but i dont think having them static has any benefits, il set them to red and have them move randomly, tyty!

[mental ridge]

it changes your precived ratio between horizontal and vertical sense since x cm horizontal cause a different change in viewing angle than x cm vertical

[mental ridge]

it feels like synthetic leather to the touch and its has this wierd feeling as if your aiming on a cloth pad with babypowder on it when u move your mouse

[novel oracle]

So is it worth it to stretch my r5 reloaded too?

[spice jungle]

i play on 1440 x 1080, and used to play on 1650 x 1080, 1728 x 1080, and some others if u had any questions. i wanna say? on apex 1920 x 1080 besides visually looking* stretched player models and movement feeling smoother, and visual recoil feeling easier to control, the draw backs are ranged fights being harder to see. and if anything, you want to stay on native res. why 1440 monitors are usually the play for apex specifically

[mental ridge]

if u do it in normal apex id say so ... the whole purpose of r5r is to get a experience like in apex but withgamemodes that aren't available in retail apex

[spice jungle]

dang that actually seems* uncomftorable, well baby powder is smooth so maybe not. i just know its the fastest cloth pad out, and is basically a glass pad with the benefits of being able to push in of a cloth pad, which u cant do on a glass pad.

[novel oracle]

Ok thank you

[twilit flicker]

stretched doesnt make the hitbox different

[spice jungle]

sorry appear different*

like looks wider* altho it technically isnt in game

i mean player models, not hitboxs* sorry

[frail kiln]

I feel like if you play 4:3 long enough there's no going back

I dead ass can't see shit on 16:9

[spice jungle]

yup the issue im in now haha

[mental ridge]

only the precived hitbox so yeah now hkw do we define how we interact with hitboxes? i mean what is reality isnt it what we precive? and if we precive the hitbox wider doesnt that mean that the hitbox changes ?

[frail kiln]

Jaden Smith ^

[spice jungle]

i even tried 1728 x 1080 again, and it looks like paper thin squished even tho thats stretched vs 1920 x 1080 LOL

[spice jungle]

man i didnt take shrooms today, cant be saying matrix shii yet

YET* key word 😉

[mental ridge]

does anybody use use raw accel to change the x y ratio to match the stretch ?

i wonder if that could further benefit the streched res experience

[twilit flicker]

your sens is the same

[mental ridge]

since youll end up having the same angular change I dependent of the direction you move your mouse?

[spice jungle]

ngl i play 1200 dpi, and wdym by raw accel to match? just use in game sens multipliers if anything, think theres a guide on yt but sens doesnt change, even if it "feels" different", just bump 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 - 1.4 what i do. and have 1.1 be the default sens when aiming in

[frail kiln]

I remember CS people talking about this like 6 years ago but nobody actually uses it

[twilit flicker]

because its ass

[frail kiln]

m_yaw .0165 or something lol

[twilit flicker]

just add more inconsistency

[mental ridge]

no its not realy since the required x movement on your mousepad to look at a target 10cm next to your crosshair on the monitor is different than the required y input on your mousepad to look at a target 10cm above/below your reticle on the monitor

[spice jungle]

sounds like some PI math stuff

[twilit flicker]

nvm this guy is schizo

[frail kiln]

wolf how much tap water ?

[twilit flicker]

2024 people still dont understand how aspect ratios work

[frail kiln]

just play with what feels good

choose love

[mental ridge]

i understand how aspect ratios work by stretching your rez u warp your perception of the game

and thus your precived sense gets warped aswell

[frail kiln]

it's not very good bait I'll be honest, but I commend you for trying

[mental ridge]

its not even bait

if u do a perfect circular movement on your mousepad with streched rez
ingame you see a ellipsis

[spice jungle]

hey since im guessing most of you use dots. two quick questions. 1: can i use different "sized" dots. like on tiger ice v2s, since they decend in size, im on my last 4, 2 of the biggest ones, 2 of the ones right below those. and second question - pattern wise. been using either 5? 2 on top, and 3 curved on the bottom, or 4 in the corners, depending on how much glide i want : pulsar x2v2 mini mouse (modded battery weight, 47g), is that enough?

[nova girder]

waht

[mental ridge]

just do 1 in each corner its the most stable

[spice jungle]

got it

[spice jungle]

and ab the mix and matching sizes? does that matter?

[mental ridge]

and if u dont like it instead of using more dots i recommend getting fullsize skates

[spice jungle]

nah i love the feel of dots over regular skates personally. idk if its placebo, but the glide u get from them over regular, and weirdly enough but stopping power and micro adjustments over stock is really good

[mental ridge]

idk youll have slightly more friction on the side where u have more contact surface

[spice jungle]

hmm ok, i got obsidians coming in so, prolly just keep this set on till those arrive

[mental ridge]

i have this feeling that dots gain more friction when applying pressure due to the smaller surface area

[fathom fiber]

what legend should i unlock?

and stuf

[torn oyster]

youll eventually unlock all of them, play whichever ones you think are fun

[spiral mirage]

240Hz monitor arrived in two days

Haven’t had the chance to set it up yet

We hitting hard stuck plat 2 with this one‼️🥶🗣️💯

[mortal hatch]

[lusty elk]

Rev/Conduit is probably safe unlock this season. But yeah I prioritize fun legends over meta unless try harding

[spiral mirage]

Rev is fun and meta

Jump go weeeeee

[feral merlin]

ikr rev is fun af

never had so much fun with a character

the freedom of movement is very nice

[devout tusk]

what does this do

seems new

[spice jungle]

hmm. idk i just set everything to 0 lol, min cfg but dress could legit mean dress on player models, or dress could mean something in the enviornment

it is new tho

[mental ridge]

i doubt we can undress playermodels with that

[spice jungle]

lol not what I meant but totally see how my wording was wrong there

[devout tusk]

apex sex mod???????

[bitter moat]

next patch I'm pretty sure

[spice jungle]

i hate yall LMAO

[torn oyster]

Y did a cheater post a clip compilation?

[raven hull]

is that what it was?

[torn oyster]

i get little timmy and another guy both around level 100 something un prestiged while getting these lobbies

"we handled sbmm" ok so why are my teamates still newish to the game

ive always been convinced it queues you with whoever you queue with in that data center

[mental ridge]

how many players are playing do u have fast queues?

[torn oyster]

theyre ok for trios. awful for duos

[mental ridge]

id assume if servers are kinda empty sbmm will be less "good" and just take whos there

[torn oyster]

its like that 9 times out of 10

i refuse to believe otherwise

its always been like this

[mental ridge]

i had console friends complain that their queues are fast in off times and meanwhile on pc one has to wait a a min or mkre

[torn oyster]

im not saying how fast queues are im saying how shit queue system has been for years

[wary star]

been like that for last 3 seasons

none of my teammates are above lvl 500

[true ravine]

soloq is fking pain this season

[true ravine]

No aim assist nerf
No anti-cheat updates

big L

also people still rewasding

[mental ridge]

they found a way without retail rewasd ?

[wintry cypress]

Probably

[novel oracle]

Is it better to strafe in a pattern or to mirror/antimirror

[torn oyster]

Patterns are predictable.
Wide strafes to allow you to Anti mirror I found to be most effective to allow recoil control / smooth aim to be more accurate

Moving in the same direction however leaves you vulnerable to easy 1 clips

[little verge]

Even my garbage ass is forced to carry level 20s every match, and then "magically" after losing a fuck tonne I get someone better than me as a teammate. Definitely couldn't be EOMM though, Respawn said so!

[torn oyster]

Bbmm

Regardless, when they said they tweaked it.
It went in the wrong direction

[true ravine]

yes

theres private softwares that theyre using

and it does the same thing as rewasd

[half salmon]

should be easy to detect

all using public drivers

lmao

those shitty devs could care less about the security of their software

eac can fuck them over at any time

[frail abyss]

Depends entirely on the situation, and what you mean by "pattern"

You need to understand how to strafe aim and you need to understand how to dodge efficiently, and also why you do either one in different situations

strafe aim is basically: i have some form of advantage, so i will lock my own movement to theirs in some way, and assuming we both hit all our shots, the enemy dies before i do

which is anti-mirroring and mirroring, but also other stuff like half sideway strafes where you go diagonally and shit

for dodge the most basic "fix-all" to start with is you have to strafe with a global bias, meaning when you're strafing, you have to move more in one direction than the other

which direction you pick to be the one you're moving towards is just a game sense thing, depends where you want to be after shooting

strafing towards a different piece of cover for example so you can reload behind it, or some other game sense related positioning

the most important part is that you strafe more in one direction than the other, and only change direction when it "makes sense"

like if a guy is looking 90 degrees to your left and you're shooting him in the side, you wouldn't start strafing left towards where his crosshair is, in that situation you could basically just keep going right and circle the guy, he's gonna struggle catching up with your hitbox

and if he does catch up, thats when you can start adding direciton changes

how to strafe is a much much deeper topic than it seems at a surface level, it's very fun to get good at, it almost feels like cheating when you know how to move efficiently and the opponent doesnt

the last thing you want to do is spam ADADAD, any good aimer (and every roller player, good or bad) is going to instakill you doing that

instead your strafes (when not strafe aiming) should look something like AAADDAAAADAADDAADAAAA

more in one direction than the other, with "fakes" added in

and this wall of text doesnt even touch on how your strafes/positioning should change depending on the geometry around you/the enemy

[proven pulsar]

anyone tryna rank?

gold

[half salmon]

disregard strafe entirely crouch dont even move

ur hitbox is now smaller

[little verge]

RAA can't track you if you don't move.

[fathom fiber]

I have rev its fun. I am thinking of either caustic or electric girl

[spiral mirage]

Honestly caustic is kinda broken

But wattson has crazy potential fencing people mid fight and just trolling the shit out of them

[fathom fiber]

My movement/strafing is bad aim is ok

[spiral mirage]

Caustic doesn’t need movement

Just throw gas 🤣

[fathom fiber]

when I spectate I am just screening enemy and not moving with intent

[feral merlin]

yea honestly it's kinda weird

yesterday I got matched up with 2 guys that had 500 career kills combined and we all died to a team of pred/masters

[spiral mirage]

Did they say they were removing/reducing SBMM in trios?

[feral merlin]

I think they did

[spiral mirage]

I know they did it for ranked

[feral merlin]

say something of the sort

[fathom fiber]

I am also not using cover

i keep reminding myself

[spiral mirage]

Caustic trap is cover

xD

[fathom fiber]

alr perfevt

ct

[spiral mirage]

You can shoot your own traps to activate them

[fathom fiber]

Isn't he like fat

yk hitbox

[spiral mirage]

Yeah lol

But his kit is pretty oppressive in buildings

And you can always throw your ult onto a team when engaging them

[fathom fiber]

yea

[fathom fiber]

I play lots of mixtapes I have like no ranked or pub experience i was gold in s17. I quit for few seasons

i got like 300 hours

[spiral mirage]

Honestly I wouldn’t use wattson or caustic in mixtape outside of tdm pylon

But that’s just me

If you’re trying to improve honestly just get basic movement tech down like slide jumps and what not and just aim train

As you go thinks will begin to slowly come together

[fathom fiber]

I play blood hound mixtape

totally dominating the enemies

[spiral mirage]

Blood is a decent pick imo

Any relatively fast-paced legend

[fathom fiber]

rev blood is good

[spiral mirage]

Rev blood octane pathy maggie horizon off the top of my head

[fathom fiber]

alr i gtg to sleep bye bye

[true ravine]

Respawn btw

[spice jungle]

@feral merlin dont mean to ping but my mouse control (am new to voltaic) is struggling from being okay in kovaaks and not* translating to apex in a sens. any ideas? seeing as your GM and all lol. also on a side note, any ideas on how to aim train with adhd LOL i cant find myself training more then 30 minutes even with music on (recently got unprescribed my adhd meds for irl reasons so finding it hard to concentrate)

[raven hull]

try r5r and hard focus on your tracking / target reading technique even if it costs you kills. You are most likely just going on to auto pilot in actual games and not actively focusing. As for the ADHD thing maybe try adding a load of people so you have people to compete against in your friends scoreboard.

[spice jungle]

r5r has been one of those things ive been delaying the inevtiable lol. just been to lazy to install, think i finally need too. will do

and il try and focus more on not auto piloting mid games, and actively playing in a way

[half salmon]

tutorial how to aim train with adhd

1. call with friends
2. aim train while waiting for queue
3. youtube picture in picture

[spice jungle]

i never thought about aim training with youtube pnp, idk why i always thought with aim training, u needed to "do your all" into it, or try hard kinda. il have to passive mode it once and try it

dude r5 1v1s are fun as fuckk, think im addicted lol

[half salmon]

its like

u sorta see the video in the corner of ur eye

[mental ridge]

whats picture in picture

[ornate gorge]

pathy if ur in ltm

[half salmon]

youtube video pop up

so u play fullscreen game and have youtube in like a small corner

[true ravine]

4. listen to podcasts or news that you are interested while aim train

[fathom fiber]

ADHD is not real

[arctic violet]

just lock-in

[raven hull]

cant wait to aim train with gta 5 downhill driving clips

or subway surfer

[light rapids]

gta5 clips are so unsatisfying
subway surfers is miles above

[twilit flicker]

minecraft parkour >>>

[raven hull]

have you seen the reverse one where the actual gameplay and audio is gta and at the bottom is a silent clip from joe rogen

we have reached the 9 circles of irony hell

[light rapids]

yeah

that was actually funny

good komedi

[raven hull]

yeah it took a few seconds for it to click because i had it muted

but when i unmuted and heard the car audio and not joe i laughed

my humour is so broken and i will not attempt to try and fix it

you could show me an image of a lettuce and some audio of the word with some reverb and id probably cry laughing

[light rapids]

imagine a life where you couldnt laugh about the most stupid shit

would be pretty empty and boring no

[raven hull]

i hate how these heirloom recolour events arent halfprice crafting mats like the hopes dawn was

[torn oyster]

Because wraith is still their main baby
Brings the most attraction to community

[arctic violet]

that butterfly recolor sucks🤢

[raven hull]

very true

i just want the hound one thats next (supposedly)

but if the event is full price my 11k crafting mats wont be nearly enough

and i dont really want to spent too much if anything on the game

[wintry cypress]

LMAO

[wintry cypress]

I have 2 heirlooms through just battlepass and level packs

And occasionally getting some packs on discount

[raven hull]

stonks, ive managed to get 1 heirloom that way. Ive not bought any packs or coins since s0

so its probably going to be a long time before i hit the next load of shards unless i get omegalucky

[wintry cypress]

most likely yeah

i got my first loom at like s10

then another in s16? ish

idk

[ember arrow]

how do you get better at jitter aim?
just by practice or is there something more to it?

[earnest flame]

Jitter aim is much to inconsistent

Learning the recoil patterns is far more effective long term

But it's up to you, that's just how I view it

[feral merlin]

I personally never aim train for more than 30-40 mins at a time

try listening to chill lofi music when training

[ember arrow]

are you sure?
some people are really good with it

[feral merlin]

do you train for general mouse control or only the subcategories that are relevant to apex?

[earnest flame]

Some people are good with it, but if you master the recoil, it's better than jitter aim

[spice jungle]

i recommend aim smoothing over jitter aiming, can aim smooth at almost any jitter aim distance, ik jittering looks cool, but is almost ineffective vs smoothing. we all cant be hollow sadly

[earnest flame]

That's why if you focus on recoil mastery you will only serve to get better and better generally

[spice jungle]

hmm il need to try lower bpm music, i always listen to stuff that gets me pumped lol

[earnest flame]

Recoil smoothing does not work on a stationary target

That's its downside

[ember arrow]

is recoil smoothing doable at like 300m?

[earnest flame]

They have to be moving at a certain speed as well as you

[spice jungle]

i train for mouse control, but legit the only game i play is apex. i just kinda get these tiny shakes or jitters i call them, even on low sense, i have a hand cam to show but yeah

[spice jungle]

wdym? strafe back and forth and ur golden, one sec

https://streamable.com/8ywz7v also this is for the hand tremors, but i recoil smooth here, on staionary bots LOL yes i have them moving now

[earnest flame]

You are very close to the target

I mean at range

[spice jungle]

i mean this is doable prolly 150 meters maybe, r301 200 meters? idk the limits, i can link taskmaster doing 300 meters

he has an aim routine for smoothing

[ember arrow]

can u link it?
i want to check it out

[arctic violet]

if u don't want wrist issues don't do that

[earnest flame]

It is doable, but more difficult as the range increases and movement of the target slows down

I prefer to learn the pattern because to me it's more fun

[spice jungle]

yeah i was editing a video for ottr, altho i scrapped it and he was doing a tutorial on it too. il link task's tho

[spice jungle]

https://youtu.be/QolLmHEg3l0?t=550 its not in english, why i was editing a video for ottr in english, but yeah heres a example of smoothing at idek how many meters lol

[mental ridge]

there is a certain range where aimsmoothing wont work

[spice jungle]

peep that part i linked xd

[ember arrow]

thanks

[spice jungle]

i mean i get what u mean, but realistically in a scenario, idk how far u wanna aim with an ar anyways

he explains jittering too in the video

[mental ridge]

some where i saw that its below 100m due to not achieving the necassary angular change per time

[spice jungle]

i think if u can jitter to a point itd be viable, then by all means go for it, i just find smoothing easiest at most distances, most maps being medium range fights built on rotations wise and layouts. the range youd need to justify jittering over smoothing? is niche i guess, but i can see where you can jitter over smoothing in certain situations, not enough space to move a/d, or opponent is staionary

[spice jungle]

but yeah, i kinda have these micro? jitters i get or shakes at the end of tracking or flicking, i think im trying to assume where my targets going to change direction, but my mind is telling me to keep my hand on the target, so it kinda jitters for a second lol. idk how to break the habit

[random thistle]

I know, Stevy sucks at coding.

[mental ridge]

i dont jitter im just saying that recoil controll is necassary after certain ranges due to it beeing impossible to achive the required angular change per second to trigger recoil smoothing (target to far away-> horizontal strafe compensation not fast enought)

[spice jungle]

ahh yeah no i agree with that

sometimes i forget to smooth too, and just recoil control as well

[mental ridge]

i always feel like im doing a mix since i cant always anti mirror

[feral merlin]

I had that problem too, the way I fixed it was by doing a lot ground plaza-like scenarios and consciously focusing on pure reactivity

only reacting when the bot moves

also practiced horizontal smoothness like thing gauntlets, syw etc

but just practice a lot with the intent of fixing the problem and you'll eventually break it

I remember it took me a bit also because I hadn't fixed the problem right away

[spice jungle]

wow i think u just unlocked a cheat code for me or something lol. when i focus on reacting to the bot, its like my mouse control isnt shaky anymore, just need to work on it. tyty

[feral merlin]

yea np you just need to do it so many times it becomes automatic and won't ever have to think about it again

[devout tusk]

that is what jitter aiming is

you jitter fast enough that it registers as you rotating at the required rate for recoil smoothing to activate

[ember arrow]

yeah but we were talking about 2 different things there

[arctic violet]

https://youtu.be/wyUhxlCKPU8?si=ncr-LizRBBAisNCK that's the updated one

it's pretty long tho

[spice jungle]

tyty

[spice jungle]

https://streamable.com/s6r9lw still a little jitteryness, but already helping smoothen the ends of my tracking, i think my problem for sure was predicting and correcting vs reacting. thanks for the help! youd said thin gauntlet i know of, and any other scenarios in particular?

[wet skiff]

how did you stop yourself from predicting/correcting vs reacting?

[spice jungle]

kinda see through the crosshair and focus more on the bot itself. kinda delays my tracking a bit, but instead of centering, actually focusing on reacting to the bot and only moving my mouse a/d when the bot moves a/d. still shaky/ have the habit* built to predict so need to aim train for probably a week or two to fully correct it

[spice jungle]

https://streamable.com/fj9rhc dang lol actually worked, mans goated tyty for the help, gonna keep at it

[twilit flicker]

respawn hates fair play

[ornate gorge]

im the opposite my kd dropped down by 0.3 playing with my friends

[little verge]

I feel like they removed the EOMM from ranked was before, but only until you get to a match where you're about to go up a rank.

Three times I was like 70 RP from getting to plat and it each time it gave me the EXACT same guy who did 100 damage across all three games.

[proven pulsar]

eva is just superfast right now

[thorn swallow]

no i mean like it swear it was shooting ultra fast

[arctic violet]

hold m1 button

[bright elm]

you just hold down m1

it literally kills people in half a second

it's insane

especially when someone tries going into a door

[placid root]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/632654611861340171.webp?size=48&name=OMEGALUL~2&quality=lossless

[devout tusk]

theres not enough players to have systems like that sadly just unlucky

a good strat in any game when you get an especially bad teammate is to just wait a few mins before reque

[spice jungle]

prolly resolution/ fov that makes it appear faster possibly? but yeah holding m1 is the fastest way that i know of, if you got a clip to show, idk

[raven hull]

unless its a translation issue is he saying his warm up is like 4 hours lol

im 2 mins in and hes said do this for 50mins atleast 3 times already

wait nvm im stupid this is a training video not a warm up lol

[lusty elk]

Why do people in plat push into 1v3 scenario when their team arent with them then scream into the mic that you're trash when they literally instantly die and I just give up and go craft instead.

Everyone plays like their K/D is 3.0 man

Atleast do 2v3s...

[half salmon]

ok

[arctic violet]

i mean u can warm-up with that too, just shorten the time of the drills

[little verge]

I didn't get them in a row though, I'd tank the RP, get it back in a match or two, and then as soon as I was close to Plat they were in my game. Seems super strange for that to happen exactly the same way three times in a day.

Only reason I felt like something was off.

[devout tusk]

oh weird

[fathom fiber]

What are these shitty servers

one player in q

I am playing range

[fathom fiber]

what servers u guys play in

[mental ridge]

idk why people complain about randos when lfg discords exist???

like guys u can influence who are your teammates this aint solo duo ranked in league

[arctic violet]

that doesn't mean they're all decent player

[mental ridge]

imo its not that hard to find players that are better than 80% of the randos

or just to find equally skilled people

[ornate gorge]

nah people from lfg r some dookie

and if they arent they are a controller demon with like 10kd abd dont want to pickup a kbm player with like the 3kd

kill grinding their life away too

[bright elm]

had bad experiences with lfg players

i dont botger

bother

pretty consistent personalities and attitude too

[mental ridge]

cant relate

i always find nice people that dont suck

[little verge]

Yoooo, long time no see. What's good?

[bright elm]

wsg bro

trying to survive my semester

i recently got back into apex

having a lot of fun rn

hbu

[little verge]

Been playing a bit of Apex too on account of BF2042 being cheater infested lately lol. I'm reporting like 8 accounts a day. Otherwise just usual work life.

[fathom fiber]

when is shitty event over?

Like 10 5 people in que

[feral merlin]

it could be

lyric uses stretched plus probably 120 fov

[spice jungle]

be my guess, https://streamable.com/8pk8oq also ik its only been like a day, but check this out! we reacting instead of predicting already 😄 making GM matt prou di hope lol. but nah frfr, two weeks from now, i cant wait

[feral merlin]

consistent training leads to inevitable results, keep going 💪 ❤️‍🔥

[bright elm]

U STILL PLAY 2042??

i swear that game is deaddrad

dead dead

[little verge]

I literally only play it because it has TDM where I can farm clips and roller isn't a death sentence like CoD or Apex when I ego push.

Oh and no EOMM, but yeah the game is awful 100% lol

[proven pulsar]

apex

[spice jungle]

r5r was triggering cause so many players can bhop while shooting. my guess is 131 grip. but i wanted to be able to do the same, so i binded rmb to shoot, and lmb to hold to aim, so i can bhop and scroll while hip firing say a r99. how long you guys think will take to get used to switching those two keybinds around?

[twilit flicker]

u can just scroll with middle finger

122

thats what i do

[young pine]

maybe like a week. depends how much you play.

I've thought about changing my grip/settings for the same reason, but I dont wanna screw myself over in other games. imo its not worth it just do bhop shoot

[visual bluff]

131 doesn't inherently screw u in other games
I did 131 before apex even released because I hurt my middle finger and it took a few months to heal and I just never switched back
ironically I don't even do much movement in apex
I don't think it's necessarily a worse grip u just have to be used to it

[raven hull]

i personally find 131 uncomfy and it ruins my accuracy a ton

just sprinkling in some mixed opinions

[devout tusk]

Theres other ways to shoot and bhop

Like i have my alt key bound to fire(its actually numpad 8, and alt moved to windows key)

You can just toggle ads and scroll with middle finger

You can learn to scroll with the side if your index while you hold m1 but thats kinda jank

[twilit flicker]

just scroll with middle finger 😭

with 122

[devout tusk]

Thats what i mean with toggle ads

[dull falcon]

i need help with this

smoothness pople healp me

[wintry cypress]

🧐 looks to me like you need more smoothness

Real shit tho i think its just practice

And maybe use your arm more, thats what helped me more with consistency and accuracy with smoothness scens

Even tho i use 20cm for smoothness tasks lol

[arctic rose]

so i rarely play apex,what is like the recommended sens range and should i change my ads sens

Agreed, using a lot of wrist while incorporating arm movement will leave you with more accessible range of motion. Other than that I'd say the only noticeable thing is the reaction to the strafe change.

But both of those come with practice.

[arctic rose]

guys 1.3 ads or 1

i heard 1.3 is same as hip

also people going 0.8

[mental ridge]

idk i think its the opposite i do 1 3 1 fingertip and imo is more ergonomic for me since i found that the final mouse shape lets me grip the mouse nicely and the mouse naturally sits more inline with my forearm in a neutral grip

[mental ridge]

1.1 / 1.14
makes u need to move the same distance on your mouse pad for what u see on your monitor

[arctic rose]

personal preference right?

im not sure if its good for m e but i have to try it

same with fov

ah,thats why there are different numbers for ads,fov changes it

[mental ridge]

like i just went to https://jscalc.io/embed/Q1gf45VCY4tmm2dq
calculated a bit and cam to 1.14 im usuing 1.1 coz having the same 360 on a smaller fov (ads fov) makes your sense seem faster

so having 1.33 would make u have the same 360 in hip and ads 1x but since your fov is smaller u do shorter mouse movements for the same distance on the monitor

[raven hull]

I physically cant 131 on my mouse because its a custom printed one, if i wanted to id have to redesign it and re print it lol

[mental ridge]

send pic

i wanna see

[arctic rose]

after looking at the edpi changes im realising how much ads sens difference is

maybe i don't need to change it because close range

im mostly going to try hipfiring anyway

[mental ridge]

i mean a 1.1 multier isnt much

[arctic rose]

on 110 fov 1.32 tho

on 90 its 1.25

or am i understanding these math shit wrong

but eh im going to try these anyway

never know unless u try

[raven hull]

heavily based on optimum techs Zero mouse

[mental ridge]

i guessed that b4 u send the pic

nice but whats the foam for

[raven hull]

too lazy to remove it

lol

its from where it was originally placed in the v2 shell

[mental ridge]

ahahahaha ok

lazy mf shave of the 0.25g

trust huge performance increase

[raven hull]

Ikr smh, im a disgrace to the enthusiast mice users

[mental ridge]

yes

[raven hull]

i need to fix a few bits with the design then im going to print it in a nylon composite

so it may end up lighter

its 29g atm

[mental ridge]

my beast x mini is how much??? 35?

[raven hull]

yeah something like that

i mean pcb + scroll wheel is like 19g on its own

wait no its more like 10

• battery is 6g

so there is a point where you cant get lighter because of that stuff

[devout tusk]

Just keep playing it, your score isnt bad people have been cheesing that scen with 50fov 100cm forever

[wet skiff]

which internal? razer viper mini?

i made one myself, mines about 15g though, razer viper 8k internals

was a lot of fun, though my design is much better than optimums imo

[raven hull]

vipe v2 pro

[half salmon]

im gonna buy a ulx shell for a viper v2 pro

ulx at home

rahhhh

[raven hull]

in what way?

[raven hull]

my shell could probably be a lot lighter, in terms of material and how much infill etc. But i had just got my printer and was playing around with it. Just some green PLA i got with it

its fun tho, designing it

[wet skiff]

only being 15g, but also the way I did my buttons makes them very effective. They're "snap on" and then rotate freely instead of bending plastic

and just a lot more optimized in terms of weight. ie, I use hollow cylinders because they are more effective/rigid than rectangles and stronger, while weighting even less

also, no screws, it's kept in place with friction

[raven hull]

you gotta love custom printed mice, they look so cursed but work so well

[wet skiff]

Yea, it's 100% perfect for my personal grip

I could not improve dimensions at all

[raven hull]

thats the best part is making it fit your grip

yeah same, my first few drafts had the right hand side grips too close to the triggers and it cramped my hand after like 30 mins

since moving them its been great

[wet skiff]

ye mines a bit wider but my ring finger is in line with my button fingers instead of sitting back, feels so much more natural imo

but you can't really do that with most mice because they slope downward

I also have my left click a bit higher than the right click

[raven hull]

same, i used my naga pro as reference for that as while that mouse is probably too big for my hands. How my fingers rest on the triggers has always felt comfy

[wet skiff]

the one thing I really like about my design is the sensor position

it's directly between my fingers. I noticed with a lot of fingertip grip mice, the sensor is really far forward and imo that makes it harder to get a good feel for it

it makes it feel faster than it really is because the arc from your wrist is larger

so a lower sensor position gives a bit more precision compared to a higher sensor position

at the same sens

[raven hull]

mines close to the back of the mouse with the v2 pro pcb its basically at the bottom of the pcb

so it makes that centeral position quite easy on a smaller profile mouse

i did find i needed a lower sens. so i moved to 40cm because of how light it is + glass. my perceived speed was much higher now it weighed basically nothing

also @wet skiff do you find your skates ware away unevenly on that mouse? the one near my left click is basically flat already and the rest are still a bit domed. then again maybe im just applying too much pressure

[wet skiff]

no. But I also use UHMW instead of PTFE so it doesn't wear out as fast

I kinda hate PTFE they wear out way too fast and the smooth glide goes away too quickly

waste of money imo

Are these the right type?

[pallid slate]

has anyone used dazs beginner apex academy course in aimlabs?

[dull falcon]

Hell no

@devout tusk @wintry cypress

Or any one else need some insight

On this vod

[still ingot]

some1 to play apex with?

we can push ranked or we can just play duos for some kills whatever

[dull falcon]

, dm me so i can remember tonight

[devout tusk]

Idk youre prob better than me at that bot lol, you recover from shakes better than me at least

[wintry cypress]

Tbh besides the shakiness youre prob better than me

[twilit flicker]

any good playlists for apex

[summer cape]

KovaaKsChatfraggingChestnutTopfrag

[mental ridge]

whats uhmw

ok i googled its cnc machined poly something

[devout tusk]

Its just a diff plastic

[novel loom]

on my smoothness arc

[dull falcon]

Touch grass

[novel loom]

i do that alot sadly

[dull falcon]

Ill try to snipe your score later. (Might not be able to beat it tho)

[novel loom]

you got it bro

whats your current hiscore in it? @dull falcon

[dull falcon]

No entries on that yet

[lilac onyx]

is it just me or are low elo pc players wayyyy worse than console

i see the most devious mispositions every game

[bright elm]

probably more of a mechanical skill gap

their aim's horrendous

i literally saw a rando try to get away with shaking his mouse left and right

instead of actually tracking

[lilac onyx]

bro thought he was jitter aiming

[proven pulsar]

game sense wise id bet low elo console being worse than pc
they do have AA so their aim is permanently consistent, that might be the difference (also controller brain is a thing)

[lilac onyx]

true

[young pine]

also positioning is really all console players have to focus on. they dont gotta worry bout hittin their shots

[lilac onyx]

true

i just get my duo to tell me where to go lmao

i have the mechanics he has the game sense

[mental ridge]

yall talking like mnk is the dominant input on pc

[young pine]

who is

apex is in the same category as cod is, controller game and if you choose to play mnk thats your own fault

sad but is what it is

[lilac onyx]

but movement

[young pine]

yeah i wish my movement gave me better aim

[lilac onyx]

it makes theirs worse so

[young pine]

it kind of can ig

strafe aim

but yeah most of movement tech is just for flashiness

[lilac onyx]

honestly id disagree

[young pine]

thats fine. only players that have mastered movement techs can make them viable

99% of players are better off just improving strafe and positioning

[lilac onyx]

i think learning stuff like fatigue bounces is beneficial for everyone tbh

[young pine]

that's true. I was mainly thinking about the superglide, mantlejump

the advanced lurch techs

[lilac onyx]

superglide isnt that hard to learn you just need practice

im still learning it

10 min on the superglide trainer then voltaic movement gym for a bit

i mean ig its easier for me cause i understand the system mechanics behind these techs but idk

i cant see much except lurch strafes as difficult

once you have a feel for the timing, superglides are easy, same w mantle jumps

[young pine]

not difficult, but takes alot of time knowing how and when to implement them and not botching it in more vital situations. most people just do it to do it and hindering their own gameplay

thats why its not used in comp much at all. theres still moments dont get me wrong. but overal not much

[lilac onyx]

yeah tru

most of those techs are better in 1v3s anyway where you need to dodge bullets to win

and in pro and high elo you shouldnt be 1v3ing except for clutch plays

[bright elm]

ywah the only time i see 1v3's are when

the lone person has 2 knockdown shields

to play around

[lilac onyx]

yeah shit like that

[dull falcon]

bb what sens u use on this

not crazy

if i crutch low sens i can do better

also shaky aim from predicting too much

range of motion issues

[torn oyster]

https://medal.tv/games/apex-legends/clips/204JvLGaX-ksCl/d1337FATChNf?invite=cr-MSxHN3UsMzg3NjkzMSw

someone PLEASE have these players never touch a controller again

[young pine]

average apex randoms lmao

[dull falcon]

after 20 mins insight : tension is a big part of this

compared form the other jump the feel felt different

[novel loom]

I’m using 34 cm with 102 apex fov

Yes slower sens is better but higher sens on smoothness scens is thought to be better practice

[dull falcon]

mayeb a week or so i should be able to reach near your score this sens

i see the vision

tension reacting properly trusting the bot more arm aiming

[sick ferry]

https://streamable.com/8cgrho

Aim training paying off :)

[dull falcon]

cheater

[sick ferry]

😭

It's shadowaim

[dull falcon]

Im fuckin with u good aim

[novel loom]

That would be sick. But I won’t let you catch up so easily I am aiming for top 20 by this week as well 😉
