apex

[stiff brook]

yeah 🫤

[mental ridge]

coz everybody is having fun in wildcard

[stiff brook]

it makes sense :(
but isnt it gone in like 1day?

[mental ridge]

nope just changed

[stiff brook]

you mean theyre gonna replace it?

or change the map?

[mental ridge]

idk exactly

i think powerups and the bat will ve introduced

[elder kayak]

How were you able to send a 45MB video when the limit is 10MB and you don’t even have Nitro?

[muted moss]

Server level

[elder kayak]

Ohh i see

[muted moss]

Level 3 is 100mb I think

[elder kayak]

Yea

[main merlin]

Wild card is fun until you get some weirdo who lands edge with wattson

Like just land a poi away from cage

Loot quick rotate

[outer sleet]

Ye the bew mode is a lot of fun but a lot of times it feels like a shitshow

It might be because I've been getting under 6 hours of sleep on average the past 6 weeks but sometimes I feel completely lost

Like I die I land in the middle of nowhere and die to 3 different people in 2 seconds

[stiff brook]

i think its not a good warmup and not a good actual gamemode, i wouldnt play wildcard if i'm bored tbh i'd do mixtape games better

it would be better if they'd do it on the many different maps

[alpine trail]

dude whenever i do anything in discord before leaving the dropship im just unable to move my camera

lol?

literally 10 min pen and go next

everytime

[rose wraith]

Wildcard is super fun it rules

[stiff brook]

clean 🔥

[stiff brook]

it's funnier with friends though

[alpine trail]

i dont think apex is fun soloq in any gamemode

[rose wraith]

apex.txt

[stiff brook]

i'm a soloq player 😔

my friends prefer Valorant

[alpine trail]

type

i was in those apex lfg discords and literally had worse teamates

i dont understand

[stiff brook]

i tried lfg discord, istg im not finding anyone, either they're good, but arent chill persons or are bad but super chill

i'm not asking for a carry i just want someone chill that is the same lvl as me 🙏

[alpine trail]

im having trouble ranking up now since kp is worth less

its hard to navigate with randoms

last season i managed to get d1 just by kp id say

[stiff brook]

though when u get good randoms its a nice feeling

[stiff brook]

bruh i can't even leave gold this season. last season i litterally went from silver to platinium 1 in less than a week but im stuck rn for some reasons

[alpine trail]

i was getting +400 games last season now i barely manage 250

[stiff brook]

istg same

i lack so much game sens

and map knowledge

the map pool rn isnt really helping me

i hate snipers/marksmen but im forced to play it cuz of the maps and the meta

cant win a game without it i swear

[alpine trail]

The rp changed geniunly pmo

i get 6 kills in gold lobbies and die 15thplace cuz my teammates are blind

i have 1.5k dmg, my teammate has 200

and cuz of the changed i end up with +6 rp

I'm sure there will be some changes to the rp gain system... right?

[unreal berry]

hopefully not

any other rp system is too easy and has the ranks overfilled

[outer sleet]

I don't mind the system getting harder but god damn the random dropspots are so badd

Like I get on and the game drops me into a noname poi first game

I mean I get why they did it but I still hate it though

[rose wraith]

why is it bad

pretty much all of them are close enough to cleanly third another big poi

ping an invade and see if your team wants to go

[unreal berry]

this season so far rewards good rotations and early fights so change ur playstyle and lock in

[grave marten]

would you guys recommand practicing on kovaaks or aimlabs for Apex ?
Used to play kovaaks back then and haven't played aim trainers in years but I wanna get back in shape

[bright slate]

kovaaks is just better

[rose wraith]

doesnt rly matter

both are good

if you have KVK use that

[grave marten]

Aight thanks @rose wraith / @bright slate !

[quaint karma]

they be putting you in the craziest bot lobbies

is that soloq?

[outer sleet]

Well it isn't like objectively bad I just hate the randomness tbh

[mental ridge]

Basically
i go on the apex legends germany discord and join a lfg vc and the randome people join me

[mental ridge]

nah i was actually just playing well for once and had a lstar

[quaint karma]

lstar is goated for that mode

you don’t have to reload

[outer sleet]

nahh bro I don't know about diamond and suck but I got put in gold and its a shitshow. Like they aren't good but I feel like I'm fighting either noone or at least 4 teams at a time

no inbetween

like everyone stays alive so if you start fighting you just get insta thirded every time

[chilly timber]

anyone know like a good meta legend that i should play besides caustic?

[grave marten]

what is your gameplay style

[chilly timber]

aggro

[severe canyon]

Bang alter ash for aggressive

Sparrow aswell

Lifeline if you want to be able to reset easier

[empty thistle]

Current diamond gets a lot better cuz the preds roll half the lobby pretty quick

Low plat and gold is just full of algs wannabes that can’t fight I feel like

[empty thistle]

Ashe, alter, bang, lifeline and sparrow are meta imo

[outer sleet]

So basically the low ranks are harder because you get randomly inted by 5 teams every time you try to fight

I mean I can tell they're not good but damn is it annoying to fight 10 people at once

[empty thistle]

Ye fighting is easier cuz they’re shit but rotates to not get dog piled is harder

Just play sparrow so u get plenty of uavs to pick ur fights carefully

[alpine trail]

I thought it would be smart to not play apex for a few weeks so the preds and masters would leave my lobby

Then I realized I would be stuck with gold players that should be in silver

Now I can’t get out of gold bruh

I average 1k dmg and 2-3 kills per game

At times I get 6 kills but can’t camp till end game cuz of my teammates

[empty thistle]

thats no excuse

if ur good u just carry early game fights for kp then rat for placement

[mental ridge]

yes exactly

and then something for closerange dps
like a smg or shotgun

car / r99 or mastiff / pk

[alpine trail]

mastiff ttk kinda

mid compared to the others

pk is pre good since you can abuse peekers advantage with a lower spread and it doesnt fall off as hard as the mastiff on range

• they both heavily rely on bolts

lol

[glossy apex]

nah they ruined wildcard

[empty thistle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TuNGSF7XSqc

[elder kayak]

I feel like three strike were more fun than wildcard

[wintry cypress]

Holy fuck

100ms VRT

[outer sleet]

Nahh bro what even is that

GGs

[empty thistle]

returning to controlsphere paying off

wondering if the pred thought I was cheating since I had no badges since im playing caustic lmao

[glossy apex]

https://outplayed.tv/media/V1myV4

outta there

[golden sphinx]

imagine a world where your teammates used their knockdown shields properly

im in my teammates knockdown 1v1 enemy is behind their teammates knockdown both of us low af hp

i reload and my teammate drops his knockdown for no reasonand i get shot and die

we are literally face to face with each other and im relying on my teammates knockdown 😭

ima stick to bdo until the game is in a playable state however long that takes lol i love the new updates for ranked but it also made it so much harder to climb and i dont know anyone else i can talk to that plays it 😭

[hushed forge]

I just came back to this game after a while

god I remember how much I fucking hate controller players

Im playing deathmatch and its so fun going against controller bots with this fuckass aim assist

actual droid movement but they track me perfectly

zero skill involved the game just aims for them

its so fun

[alpine trail]

I keep tryna rat but then go to help my teammates, if I don’t they’re gonna be screaming at me. I can’t even play the game. That’s happened twice so far

[carmine ibex]

Is controller still broken in this game? last time I recall aim assist was broken. That was a year back iirc

[half salmon]

0.4 -> 0.3

lowkey not that busted anymore

but the controller players themselves are 99% braindead

[carmine ibex]

Lol why is that?

[half salmon]

all they know is shoot gun

[carmine ibex]

Lol

[quaint karma]

how so? only played ranked yesterday

[glossy apex]

They added the fucking bat that does 120 dmg and you dont need to aim with it + wallrunning and other shit

I liked it better before

Hope this is temporary

[quaint karma]

oh right

i hate op weapons like that

as if people playing it like ranked and 3man camping with caustic wasn’t enough

[quaint karma]

20 days i think it says

[glossy apex]

I feel like the nerf didn’t do shit.
The problem isn’t how “magnetic” it is. The problem is that it has zero delay and instantly reacts to enemy movements, something even the best mouse aimers can’t do. At least not as consistently as a literal machine can.

They need to rework AA somehow

[half salmon]

impossible

but i dont really mind controller that much

[quaint karma]

contrary to popular belief rotational AA has been a thing since AA first came about

[half salmon]

the ttk is so fast if you lose thats just your fault

[quaint karma]

cod 2 on console had rotational AA

[half salmon]

life is better once you stop caring about controller

trust me

[glossy apex]

ig

[half salmon]

finals literally has 2x stronger aim assist than apex

yet mnk players dominate rank leaderboards

[glossy apex]

It’s just annoying that I put so much time into aim trainers just for some kid to pick up a roller and have better aim than me

[quaint karma]

i mean it’s also very easy to aim in finals

movement is so slow

[quaint karma]

don’t think that’s quite how it works anymore

[glossy apex]

Maybe not idk

[half salmon]

finals favors mnk because winning light 1v1s is based on just who can hit more shots while dashing

same with heavy, mnk just favors that class because of just overall better reaction time

[half salmon]

look brother literally just care about yourself and your own improvement

life gets better when you stop comparing yourself to controller players

maybe go compare yourself to xim/dma players

if your gameplay dont look like them keep grinding

lowkey apex got better in terms of the cheater situation

EAC better than vanguard in terms of catching DMA

atleast thats what my friends told me

you dont get "dma-naded" in dia/pred lobbies anymore

and jitter scripts slowly getting fixed

• xim behaviour detection is being worked on

[lapis moat]

yea theres definitely less ragehackers and less aimbots

but theres still a ton of wallers

[visual bluff]

ye theres still a fair bit of wallers i think wallers have been a little worse the past few weeks
i was sitting top beast in an end game earlier and the alter on the team under was the GOAT of placing kidnaps ended up having to stand on the teeth of a nc wall to be safe

[inner linden]

the good ol days of this chat are returning

[carmine ibex]

Hi, was checking out the kovaaks aim training routine of apex here, it's 2years old, is that still viable or is there an updated guide for it?

[severe canyon]

They weren’t good bro they were just fucking old

[empty thistle]

Stop trying to ruin man’s nostalgia

[outer sleet]

diamond in precision lets goo

[hushed forge]

its not completely unplayable

but its basically just legal soft aim ngl

controller gets gifted like master tracking for free

[empty thistle]

I’d say that’s about right

Tbh I feel like apex isn’t even that aim based tho rly

My friend who I fry in 1v1s does same as me in br and I do a lot better than rollers who can fry me in a 1v1

[cedar wigeon]

ofc if you only play 1v1 sure but if you play the br its just more than just aim gamesense etc

[hushed forge]

yeah obv actually playing the game also comes down to a lot of gamesense and positioning

but when youre in a 1v1 with a roller its just unfair a lot of the time

your two options are either have really good aim

which isnt realistic for majority of players for obvious reasons

or have really good movement

which also isnt realistic

with a team you can still beat roller squads obviously, its not the end of the world, but in isolated 1v1s roller is stupid

[cedar wigeon]

At this point play Bang or Caustic and pray that the roller player goes into your smoke, gas

🙏

Aint gonna happen but still

[hushed forge]

lowkey

bang and js push every roller you see close range

smoke

ez win

[cedar wigeon]

Now we just need a perk that let us see who is playing with roller

Ez game

[hushed forge]

😭

nah new bang perk

every point of damage a roller deals to you is -0.1 seconds on smoke cooldown

[twilit flicker]

comparison is theft of joy

[cedar wigeon]

ngl the current weapon meta annoys me more than roller players

[hushed forge]

its not even bad comparison

like in the sense of "this guys so much better than me I should give up" even tho he has 3k hours on aim trainers

roller players are just fucking gifted soft aim bro

its completely valid to be mad over that

[glossy apex]

I know. I just want to point out that rollers get a very unfair advantage for no reason

[twilit flicker]

i get it

[cedar wigeon]

Its like i benched my whole life natty and than there comes someone who only benches for one week or some but uses roids and beats me in some competition

[twilit flicker]

but it is what it is

[glossy apex]

but there isn't rly a downside to playing roller

most mnk players dont learn movement anyway

also, you can do most movement on roller, they're just lazy

you get free master lvl tracking with no cons

I just think thast's a little stupid

people say they deserve aim assist because of how hard it is to aim with a stick

but like

yes

controller is not the optimal input for fps games

[cedar wigeon]

Give them aa but fair aa and not overpowered shit that is soft aimbot

[glossy apex]

mouse is simply superior for aiming

Playing roller in pc lobbies should be a disadvantage

you are playing on PC, but choose to use a inferior input

only reason it's viable is cuz they get soft aimbot

console is whatever

but if you play on pc, but choose to plug in a controller...

that's fucking lame I can't lie

there is no reason other than aim assist

imo ¯_(ツ)_/¯

imagine playing a racing game with keyboard and then saying that you should get auto steering because it's harder than using a wheel or controller

and then the devs put it in the game

I know they're never gonna nerf AA because it would kill the game

too many casuals who would quit if they realized how shit their mechanincs rly are

aight rant over

[alpine trail]

GUYS

i can do superglides now

still cant do the faide quick slide tho

[glossy apex]

?

[cedar wigeon]

Good shit keep up the work

[glossy apex]

kinda backwards but nice

I feel like superglides are harder than quick slide no?

[alpine trail]

i dunno bruh

i still cant do that shit

[cedar wigeon]

Dont know only learned superglide and mantle jumping

[alpine trail]

pmo

[alpine trail]

thanks g

i have to do mantle jumping now

i can do zip jump but its for me to go up fast on a vertical zip

[glossy apex]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y07_RZMV-VM

[alpine trail]

thanks gang

[glossy apex]

I struggled with mantle jumps for so long

[alpine trail]

lets hope i dont

[glossy apex]

and right when I was about to give up

[alpine trail]

i prob will

[glossy apex]

he posted that vid

[alpine trail]

lmao

[glossy apex]

I watched it and learned in less than an hour

45 min maybe

[alpine trail]

oh type shit

[glossy apex]

I used to use crouch to cancel mantle, but I think he says in the vid to use S instead

I don't remember, but that's what I use now

and it feels easier

good luck tho

[alpine trail]

dont know what any of that means but thanks

[glossy apex]

you'll see

[alpine trail]

i still cant hit the superglide effectively

i do it like 30-40% of the time

but i know how to do it now

[glossy apex]

nice

just do it whenever you climb any ledge

in game

firing range

whatever

consistency just comes with time

[alpine trail]

yea thats what i do

thanks for the help

[glossy apex]

ofc

gotchu bro

[hushed forge]

treeree my beloved

[alpine trail]

I HIT A MANTLE JUMP

IM ON FIRE

i cant do it consistently tho

i did it once

damn

i keep hitting my head on the zipline

ok i did it again

i think i understand the inputs

[waxen elbow]

https://l0c4l.tixte.co/Clip_-_Clip_-_Clip_-_Apex_Legends_-_Match_1_-_1246am-2024-09-20-05-07-22-506.mp4

Old ass clip, this was when I had just learned about “informed flicking”

It was in a bot lobby

[quaint karma]

are those actual bots

or players

i cant tell

[devout tusk]

the only mantle jump tutorial you need is understanding what is actually happening. You mantle to regain your grounded state(coyote time), drop off and look up/down to have interact hitbox overlap with zipline(standing at ledge you are too far away to grab it), then superjump.

the timing window is the coyote time window, same for elite jumps, they are all the same tech, and it starts when you drop off the ledge.

[outer sleet]

Bro is evolving right before our eyes

Also I found that doing mantle jumps in the streamer building on worlds edge is like 10x harder than anywhere else idk why

I just hit my head at all times the timing is so weird

[bright slate]

https://x.com/_minustempo/status/1958239124629983656

minustempo (@_minustempo)

After 2 weeks of the new season this is the current rank distribution. A well formed bell curve which is what a proper rank system should look like.

If you're complaining about this season being too hard, odds are you just can't handle the truth that you aren't as good as you

X · Aug 20, 2025, 6:46 PM

Might be the first in in apex history it has a corrrect curve

[quaint karma]

amazing

[quaint karma]

that makes a lot of sense

[rose wraith]

gotta play a short char or look down instead of up

wattson is the easiest

[devout tusk]

wattsons viewheight is medium

while having small hitbox

[bright slate]

dont care will be playing pathy

[devout tusk]

the reason the elevators are hard is because you need to delay to the very end

of the timing window

looking up probably doesnt help too ive always looked down though so cant say for sure

[rose wraith]

Technically does but who is rly killing themselves to grind streamer mantle jumps in 2025

The clout was farmed last year

[devout tusk]

3 years ago even lul

[bright slate]

yeah

cant say i enjoyed the rise of 'movement' players in the game

[devout tusk]

idm movement players but i find it frustrating the whole playerbase treats the techs like cheatcodes

like its some magic

button sequence

[bright slate]

its just boring to go up against imo

like

i will just backpedal

and one clip you

good looks

[outer sleet]

I know all that but it still feels off for some reason

I found that if I don't look all the way down it works better but it is really weird idk

I'll prolly just put in some practice at some point but I can't be bothered for such a niche thing rn

[empty thistle]

This season so sweaty I’m not even confident I’ll make masters

Died to 3 top 200 preds in a corner ratting crafter in zone 3 earlier

[dull falcon]

Yeah preds playing like pussies is weird

[alpine trail]

Yea it it

The zip is farther and u can hit ur head easily

After I can do it in range I’m gonna practice on that building

[alpine trail]

Yea at first I didn’t understand

What I do is

I interact with the zip but let go of e

Then jump of the zip and mantle

Then without letting go of e, press w then s really fast

And as soon as I connect with the zip I jump

The zip is firing range is not too far from the ledge so I press jump as soon as I press S

[devout tusk]

thats basically what i do i think

but if youre struggling with the timing i think being familiar with the coyote time window by feel, and knowing why you are mantling to begin with is going to help you get it down consistent way more than analyzing some tutorial frame by frame like ive seen people do

[alpine trail]

I tried analyzing but it was too much so I saw a vid where the guy explained how it worked and the inputs for it

That’s when I acc understood how to do it

But I still don’t understand how ppl get up zip lines so fast

Ik it’s with the super jump but I always mess it up when I try

[tepid yacht]

anyone wanna play farlight 84

[bright slate]

🙅‍♂️ chinese bitcoin miner

[lapis moat]

https://kbdfans.com/collections/tofu-tkl/products/tofu-tkl @half salmon u got any info on the HE pcb that this has

dont think its the venom

[tepid yacht]

i should get a new case and caps for my 80he

maybe there's good aftermarket ones now

[half salmon]

same developer as the venom

basically theyre the ones making newer iterations of the venom pcbs from what ive seen

like the 60 and 65

previously its been made by rakka but due to lack of dev update

they swapped over to NNKS

[lapis moat]

ooooo i might get this then

[lapis moat]

now that ive gotten the goat mouse its time for the goat mousepad and keyboard

[half salmon]

try the matrova yang, heard alot of good things about it

• allows custom images

[lapis moat]

perma out of stock on their site

very annoying

[half salmon]

really?

[lapis moat]

still waiting on a VA-005 review made by a sentient human

[half salmon]

they stopped doing the uncoated one

the coated is the only option

[lapis moat]

is that the bad kind of coating that goes away or good kind

[half salmon]

good kind

[lapis moat]

joker game please make a skypad 5

[half salmon]

my friend has compared it to his entity + beast

could ask for an overview if needed

[lapis moat]

what i want is a fnatic jet that doesnt die in 3 months

[half salmon]

impossible

buy shitting guy v2 mid

[lapis moat]

the feel of a new jet is actulaly crazy it just has so much lower static friction

[half salmon]

lowkey might give the jet a go

seen it hyped too much

[tepid yacht]

I still just use artisan pads

every time i've tried another brand where people they're as good or better, I end up going back

[dull falcon]

the bell curve idc waht anyone says now ima use this as reasoning

[half salmon]

legit hardstuck plat2 rn i am actually a failure

to be fair i quit for maybe uhhhh

almost a year and a half

i dont got it anymore

[lapis moat]

im still plat cuz i just dont play enough i have aids

[half salmon]

i dont play during edistrict days because i feel like a lost battlefield dad on that map

[glossy apex]

I delay the super jump to when I’ve dropped down a bit. It works for me, but it’s a little slower than how Faide does it so idk

[glossy apex]

E - scroll jump - hold S to not go to much forward - Press E again to reattach

Then backwards mantle jump off 3rd floor in streamer building

[outer sleet]

That also works but it doesn't throw you as far

And I also can't 180 tap strafe out of it if I do it that way

[outer sleet]

Nahh you'll def make it

[glossy apex]

I can do 180s 🤷🏻‍♂️

[outer sleet]

You can do it without climbing the thing?

While doing it late?

[alpine trail]

aight thanks

i dont hold s

that was the problem

also i can somewhat do the quick slide now

[glossy apex]

Bro is actually speedrunning movement

[glossy apex]

ye

[outer sleet]

Then maybe I just suck

Like if I do it late I always climb the top of the shaft

Which can be good if I want to superglide off of it but if I wanna get away it kinda fucks me

[alpine trail]

lmao

i can do superglides like 65% of the time

the mantles i can only do if ido it slow

so im practicing that

i can superjump up the zip to the 3rd floor pretty consistently now

the quick slide i can do but sometimes i get a deadslide

[outer sleet]

bro I be 1v1ing a pred and missed 0 bullets on him and still lose

I actually just got ping diffed

[alpine trail]

Chat, longbow or senti?

[half salmon]

senti

why would you play longbow when charge rifle or 3030 exist

[hushed forge]

none

kraber, g7, 3030 or charge rifle

[glossy apex]

Snipers are useless in this meta

Marksmans are infinitely better

Ofc kraber is good tho

And charge rifle with the hop up goes crazy

Still feel like 30 and g7 are just way too OP rn tho

[alpine trail]

Yea but a 158 headshot feels so nice

[alpine trail]

3030 is amazing

[hushed forge]

3030 skullpiercer

is g7 still meta?

[alpine trail]

Also this might buy a dumb question but movement configs have to be cheating right?

*be

[half salmon]

ok 3030 does 120 headshot

[hushed forge]

yes

theyre bannable

[alpine trail]

But is it 158?

[alpine trail]

Kk

Good to know

[half salmon]

the 3030 will win the duel 9/10

[hushed forge]

with like triple the fire rate

[glossy apex]

Charged senti hs is 158

Not worth

For the fire rate

[hushed forge]

senti has a fraction the fire rate + you gotta spend a shield cell to charge it

and they both 2 shot headshot anyway

[alpine trail]

It feels nice ok?

[glossy apex]

You’ll probably miss 3 shots and die with 0 dmg

[alpine trail]

Damn bruh😔

[glossy apex]

Realistically

[hushed forge]

also this

you miss your first shot youre cooked

[glossy apex]

It’s way too hot or miss

[alpine trail]

What if I’m js that good

[hushed forge]

if youre him then maybe

[alpine trail]

Exactly

[glossy apex]

Ur not Mande bro

[hushed forge]

😭

[alpine trail]

I’m him

[hushed forge]

senti is js too risky in apex idk

[alpine trail]

Js trust

[hushed forge]

bullets travel too slow

and enemy movement is usually unpredictable

[alpine trail]

I learnt 3 movement techs in 2 hrs

Js trust

[hushed forge]

unless you get somebody moving in a straight line or not moving at all

[glossy apex]

https://youtube.com/shorts/tKXmPdSwuFw?si=7HYgB-2uZ-ZDvVja

[alpine trail]

Bro this vid pissed me off

He uses the senti

And hits every shot

Drops like 10 kills or sm

[glossy apex]

He is lowkey him tho

[alpine trail]

He is

[glossy apex]

But his point still stands

The risk isn’t worth the reward

It doesn’t even 1 shot

Using it at long range, they’ll just go behind cover and heal

[hushed forge]

hes also playing pubs here

professional apex player drops 10 kills on pub clankers

[glossy apex]

30-30 2 hs does 120 then 80

Insta dead

[alpine trail]

That’s fair

I usually take 3030 over senti but sometimes I only get senti off drop so I js use it

[glossy apex]

I just see senti as a clip farm/fucking around gun

Not actually viable

[alpine trail]

it is a fucking around gun

my skills lie w the r9

[glossy apex]

I pray that they nerf marksmans tho

Then snipers would be kinda viable

[alpine trail]

true

[glossy apex]

Meta should be AR, Smg, shotguns

And snipers would be like a niche playstyle

But still viable

yk

[alpine trail]

ye ye

[glossy apex]

Lmgs and marksmans are boring and don’t rly make sense in apex imo

[alpine trail]

i wanna practice movement on streamer building

how do i load private game

[glossy apex]

R5

[alpine trail]

u can only do in r5?

[glossy apex]

Pretty sure ye

[alpine trail]

devo is the only lmg i like, its fun to use

but marksmans get boring after sometime

[alpine trail]

kk

[glossy apex]

You need like 30 ppl to start a custom match in apex

Cuz it’s only for tournaments or something idk

[alpine trail]

why is it 30

its ur matchT_T

[glossy apex]

Probably cuz they don’t got servers or something

[half salmon]

go back to the honest and humble AR + r9 meta

shit sucks

[glossy apex]

So they don’t want everyone to start solo lobbies

[glossy apex]

That’s what I’m talking about

Skillful meta

[alpine trail]

No emphasis on the meta

[alpine trail]

ahh

makes sense

how do ppl do mantl while looking down

why is the server so laggy rn

im in the range

i keep messing up the jump timign on the mantle

[glossy apex]

Same as up no?

U gotta drop off the ledge for a few frames or something

Coyote time

You have little bit of time where the game thinks you’re still touching the ground and lets you super jump

[alpine trail]

whats the input order

[glossy apex]

Because you can only super jump if you’re touching the ground and not toggle crouched (hold crouch works)

I jump off to mantle the ledge, climb up, tap S while looking down, then E+ scroll jump

Hold S longer to make sure you drop off

I’m think

I’m kinda doing it on autopilot at this point

[alpine trail]

yo i got it

i kept pressing jump too earlt

[glossy apex]

Ah

[alpine trail]

and sometiems i did it too late

but mainly early

when i press S, i didnt wait for my character to latch onto zip

[glossy apex]

Common mistake

And if you do it too late, you’re on the zip for too long and can no longer super jump

[alpine trail]

yea exactly

so i get a weak zip jump

[glossy apex]

Ye

I think that’s kinda how ghost jumps work

But don’t worry about that yet

You’ll get there

[alpine trail]

aight

thanks for the help

[outer sleet]

bro I could get top 5 and still lose points like this game is so good

or get 10 kp and still lose points

such logic is beyond my understanding

[alpine trail]

yea the rp for kp is too less imo

[outer sleet]

I get why they would do this but it just heavily favors 3 stacking now I feel like

We'll see when I get to higher ranks idk

I don't think I'll play that much this season though

[alpine trail]

ive js been practicing movement

i play a couple ranked games but mainly ive js been in the range

bro i keep getting the mantle jump, then i forget how i did it

what do i use to get my movement inputs on the side

[outer sleet]

Ye I've been playing with my friend but not much else tbh

[outer sleet]

It's called noahboard and it is a keyboard overlay you can set up in obs

You need the program itself though

2 sec

https://youtu.be/9lBDB7WDsF4?si=Ol3e9ScbOVNG3ZbE

There you go

I' sure there are others too but whatever

[alpine trail]

thanks

now ill know what im doing wron

g

[alpine trail]

whats the edpi for apex

like suggested edpi

[waxen elbow]

What’s edpi?

[alpine trail]

ur mouse dpi * in game sens

[empty thistle]

Generally just pick something between 30 and 50 cm/360

[vague nexus]

https://youtu.be/1L9WQebc7ig

[alpine trail]

aight thanks

[frozen narwhal]

Your sensitivity is 34.6364 cm/360°

Your sensitivity is 28.8636 cm/360°

Your sensitivity is 38.4848 cm/360°

[empty thistle]

KAYYYY PPPEEEE

[wintry cypress]

How are apex servers still this fucking bad

Literally took 3 minutes to connect to a match in a loading screen

Just decided to alt f4

[devout tusk]

does black reticle still work?

[half salmon]

yes

[devout tusk]

nice

[tight falcon]

anyone know any air scenarios that mimic apex movement like ras strafing

[bright slate]

hmm

maybe airdodge?

[tight falcon]

not really what im looking for more like controlsphere apex from aim labs but a bit less dated

[bright slate]

on kvks?

[tight falcon]

preferably

[bright slate]

try silo maybe

[tight falcon]

thats alot more what im looking for

kinda of annoying that theres vert focused scens and horizontal focused scens with not much inbetween unless theres tons of z axis movement

[bright slate]

forkrawcontrol has a fair bit of both

KovaaKsBuyingGooshedGear

try a handful of these scenes

[tight falcon]

thats a really good scen actually.

[tight falcon]

thats a goated playlist

aa4v smooth short lillith is closest to what im looking for

[bright slate]

idk how specific apex focused scenarios are on kvks

i assume just general tracking

[tight falcon]

there arent many named ones that werent released in 2022

[tight falcon]

whose playlist is this

[bright slate]

receptioncells

an og i think

[minor blaze]

anyone know whether the drops in ranked are skill based? because I swear to god if I drop att solar pods again I will lose my mind

[bright slate]

sounds schizo

i believe it

[bleak sage]

no theyre random im pretty sure lol

[minor blaze]

that sounds like bullshit to me because I got dropped on under pass 3 or 4 times during my session out of like 10-12 games

and in a previous session it was legit 5 times solar pods

shit aint even a poi its justt p for piss

[empty thistle]

What’s more useful do you think? Taking my dynamic from Jade to master or pushing control + reactive from master to gm?

Picking my next target

[bright slate]

probably control

[empty thistle]

Why control over reactive?

[bright slate]

i didnt even read the reactive

but most players suck at both

i just find control to be more useful

[empty thistle]

Ye it’s weird

I would’ve thought with masters tracking scores my aim would be feel better than “mid”

But I guess that’s what happens when you fight rollers and preds every game

[bright slate]

if you dont supplement it with correct strafing it will feel off

[empty thistle]

What kind? I did complete the e1se strafe benches at one point

[bright slate]

the ingame kind

[empty thistle]

I do bit of r5

Probs should do more

Good days I hit around a 2kd, bad days are around a 1. Can’t find accuracy stats anymore to track

I defo have days where it feels like the enemies barely move and others that I’m accidentally ruining my aim with my strafe

[bright slate]

https://youtu.be/o7D-9KaT2fQ

[north topaz]

ok I'm actually breaking my head with this

I am trying to find a 1:1 way to set my ADS sens to be the same on both Black Ops 6 and Apex. On COD I can easily do that by setting my monitor distance coefficiency, which I set to 0.48

but there is no such thing for apex

and everything I googled did not help. it's all reddit posts with massive amounts of calculations to set something properly

[bright slate]

just use cm/360

[alpine trail]

Yea

Turn ur apex sens to cm/360 using /cm then use /sens to convert that into BO6 sens

[outer sleet]

Bro if your aim is mid then I'm cooked

[lapis moat]

control applies a bit better for apex but when ur jade/masters the diminishing returns starts kicking in

and playing r5/control/whatever to improve your reading will be more effective if you are going for aim gains in game

understanding and parsing how people move in apex is the key to actual good aim, its what puts the S tier rollers above the A tiers

[half salmon]

kovaaks except projectile instead

if u get this they actually gotta put u down

[bright slate]

im buying that right meow

thanks for the shout goat

[lapis moat]

joker game it is very important that you clone this new skypad in the next week

[hushed forge]

how much

[bright slate]

thats some wall art

[half salmon]

uncle panda and dysphoria are the CEO of gooner pads

[empty thistle]

Would you say the diminishing returns is hard or just to the point that kovaaks shouldn’t be a priority?

[lapis moat]

kovaaks should have less prio

from a mouse control perspective apex is not as intensive as something like ow

[rich linden]

On the plus side the server’s getting smarter on average every time someone falls to this

[alpine trail]

what fps should i cap apex at

for like consistency w my super glides

[half salmon]

15

[alpine trail]

oi

[half salmon]

just play 300 bruh aint no one give a shit about superglide consistency

[alpine trail]

i care

[half salmon]

then go 15

the less the better

[alpine trail]

but i want to be able to play 😭

how is faides movement so snappy and clean

mine feels so wierd

[devout tusk]

cause he has 15k hours

[hushed forge]

he has double your playtime in just movement

[empty thistle]

14k more to go

[vague nexus]

I cant tell if its ai generated

Someone said glsswrks pads are ai

Idk if its true or not

[hushed forge]

I dont think it is

I have absolutely zero artistic skill so dont take my word on it but it looks completely normal

[vague nexus]

Ai has gotten pretty good now, its hard to tell sometimes

[hushed forge]

I see no obvious AI mistakes

[vague nexus]

Either way i cant use the pad cause im gonna be harder than the surface of the pad

[hushed forge]

and theres so much detail I doubt AI wouldnt mess up something

no obvious signs of AI from what I can see and shading looks p good

[alpine trail]

ur not wrong

but like how

[hushed forge]

hes just him

[hushed forge]

also I swear glasswrks was making pads before generative AI got any decent

[alpine trail]

this man has a wife

and he bough it

*bought

[hushed forge]

yeah I read that 😭

and his wife made fun of it to her sisters

its so over

[alpine trail]

14.5k more to go

[alpine trail]

which self respecting husband does this

[hushed forge]

tbf he replied to someone asking

and he said he only bought it because of the price

he said it was by far the best bang for his buck

[hushed forge]

I found the answer

the background is AI generated but the main character isnt

[empty thistle]

Not a happy marriage

[alpine trail]

fair

[alpine trail]

hes banging something

i learnt a lot of movement techs but like how do i acc use em

i feel very slow when playing the game

[twilit flicker]

ai or not it looks shit

[hushed forge]

the akari one is p mid

kazemi is fire

and hana is p decent

[half salmon]

they are

tekkusai's midjourney or whatever ai art platform account was literally just filled with shit

then they used the AI and fixed it up with an actual artist i assume

but the prompts are funny as hell

https://tenor.com/view/zaunvi-caitvitwt-stan-twitter-gif-10576500664165224210

[vague nexus]

I remmember yhere was a twitter post where someone made a promt that made a really similar picture to the kazemi pad

[alpine trail]

help me out here chat

yo guys i recorded a vid of me doing the mantle

cuz i was struggling

and then after the recording

i hit it 8 times in a row

im pretty consistent now

[lapis moat]

ye

the akari was almost full ai, the other ones were made with AI as "inspo" but they got an artist to do it right with the "inspo'

[alpine trail]

this was the vid

nvm cant even upload

[alpine trail]

Ok I can consistently hit the mantle now

[candid mist]

is there a kovaaks scenario that replicates ash dash?

[jovial mauve]

do ppl use 1.5+ sends in game 800 dpi, with glass pads? or just lower sens mostly

[carmine ibex]

Ayo I feel like I have aim assist on my mouse lol. How do I remove it?

[alpine trail]

My sens is 1.65

I dont have a glass pad tho

[elder kayak]

omg my first ever 20 bomb badge

😭

[quaint karma]

yes

[elder kayak]

@twilit flicker look

[hushed forge]

I use 1 in game at 1600 dpi

so 2 at 800

[jovial mauve]

glass pad?

[hushed forge]

yeah

its not that fast

[jovial mauve]

damn fair enough must have crazy control for that tho on glass pad

[elder kayak]

Same lol

[hushed forge]

no

my tracking is shit

its my weakest category

[jovial mauve]

oh fair enough

[hushed forge]

the sens isnt that fast

its only 26cm

[elder kayak]

[hallow sail]

@sonic marlin

[hushed forge]

ok wait thats faster than I thought ngl

[jovial mauve]

i think thats quite fast compared to alot of ppl

[hallow sail]

That’s me

[hushed forge]

well it doesnt feel like 26 in game

[jovial mauve]

because i want to use high sens and have a smaller cm/360 on a cloth pad maybe i gotta buy artisan or smth but on skypad idk i just cant get my aim to what it could be

so i gotta compensate and use like low sens which is good but gotta get cloth pad for high sens then

[outer sleet]

Ye Faide does

[jovial mauve]

he uses a glass pad?

[outer sleet]

I'm pretty sure ye

I don't know which one though

There is a slight chance I might be wrong about it but I'm like 99% sure he uses a glass pad

[frozen narwhal]

Your sensitivity is 34.6364 cm/360°

[bright slate]

1.5 800 isnt high at all

[mental ridge]

not at all i played well on 0.9 1600 dpi

[golden sphinx]

bruh been liking farlight 84

that apex clone

actually kinda fun

[empty thistle]

Trying to work on my dodge and I’m missing everything while focusing on it lmao

[north topaz]

/cm apex 0.6 1200

oh wow I failed completely LMAO

[frozen narwhal]

Your sensitivity is 57.7273 cm/360°

[north topaz]

that's not what I meant

I know my cm/360. I want to have the same ADS sensitivity on BO6 and Apex

in BO6 I use a monitor distance coefficiency of 0.48

for the ADS sens

[frozen narwhal]

Your sensitivity is 0.6000

[devout tusk]

monitor distance in 2025

[half salmon]

[bright slate]

gotta make sure the oled doesnt have burnt pixels

need ot be close

[alpine trail]

Yea I dunno

Sry

[hallow sail]

@inner linden

[pale ivy]

Can anybody explain what does it mean #Rawinput?

[outer sleet]

I assume it refers to the raw input podcast maybe

[hallow sail]

Viscoses podcast

[placid root]

last guy walking out like a bot 😭

[ionic cave]

the putter onner

no more like put onner

[ionic cave]

chat

is superglide even possible with 240 fps

i cant do this shot

shit

i get it like once out of 50 fuckin tries

[glossy apex]

it is possible

harder tho

but skill issue ig

I mean

probably a reason he does that

[hushed forge]

it should be

[ionic cave]

theres a way to cap fps?

i cant find it

[twilit flicker]

fps_max

[glossy apex]

I think u gotta use a launch option command on steam

ye

[ionic cave]

damn

[glossy apex]

or in cfg

[ionic cave]

i swear i also saw some dude named hiki or some shi

do it everytime on 240

just built diff ig

[twilit flicker]

its not hard

[glossy apex]

its just a smaller window

[ionic cave]

i did thr superglide trainer thing and i was always off by 1 frame

1-4 frames

[hushed forge]

omd some time ago I saw I think a reddit post of a guy that listed all the best fps caps

for super glides

now I cant find it

[ionic cave]

even tho i felt like i was doing it instantly

oh well skill issue

imma just cap it

do i even need superglides tho

trynna hit pred

[hushed forge]

also theres a 1ms difference in the window between 180 and 240 btw

[glossy apex]

YES! YOU NEED MOVEMENT

no

but it's fun

and u can style on mfs

[hushed forge]

5.56 ms to 4.17 ms windows to hit a superglide

thats a good difference but Id rather js learn 240 ngl

the rest of the gameplay will be better

[twilit flicker]

its easy

if u have he keyboard

[ionic cave]

i swear its impossible tho

like im not even joking

[twilit flicker]

its not

[hushed forge]

its not

[ionic cave]

im on 0.1 actuation

w the wooting

[hushed forge]

its definitely harder

[glossy apex]

https://tenor.com/view/skill-issue-urge-resist-cat-gif-25536160

[hushed forge]

but its definitely possible

[twilit flicker]

u are on 0.1

thats the problem

[ionic cave]

wym

[hushed forge]

maybe 600fps would be near enough impossible

[ionic cave]

doesnt it have to be frame perfect on 240

[hushed forge]

it has to be frame perfect on all fps

its always the next frame

[glossy apex]

this i what I use

I like it

[twilit flicker]

ye

something like that

have crouch and space on different actuatioon

[glossy apex]

C for crouch btw

[hushed forge]

the reason lower fps is easier is because the frame time is lower

[ionic cave]

which do you use for the superglide

[hushed forge]

so you have a bigger window

[ionic cave]

i use c and space

both 0.1

[glossy apex]

same

[twilit flicker]

bad

[glossy apex]

nah

set diff

[ionic cave]

so my jump should be what

[hushed forge]

on 240fps you have 4.17ms roughly till the next frame and 180 you have 5.56ms roughly

[glossy apex]

I have C on 2 and space on 4 ig

[twilit flicker]

u need crouch and space on different actuation

[hushed forge]

anything thats close to space that you can hit very quickly with your thumb

[ionic cave]

which do u recommend

[twilit flicker]

idk everyone presses different

[glossy apex]

so I can press them at pretty much the same time and get the correct inputs

[ionic cave]

which should be higher atleast

[hushed forge]

oh yeah you lot have actuation

yous can just press both at the same time

[twilit flicker]

i have space higher

[hushed forge]

Im stuck having to time the two inputs 😭

[ionic cave]

i notice when i try to superglide i always jump first

[glossy apex]

I could do superglides on my old keyboard too tho

[ionic cave]

so do i just make it higher too

[twilit flicker]

yes

play around until you get both at the same time

[glossy apex]

then I struggled when I got Wooting, but now I feel more consistent

[ionic cave]

do you guys recommend any youtubers or guides to watch?

i got a good amount of tech down like the wall bounces, zipline bounce, fatigue jump, bhopping but idk if theres other shi im missing

[twilit flicker]

lurching

[glossy apex]

ye, ras strafe & yuki strafe

shit like that with the pk this season

untouchable

also zip stuff

like mantle jump

sure it's kinda niche to that one building

but why not learn

if u have the time

go for it

https://apexmovement.tech/wiki/catalog

just try some random shit on here

you can see usefullness vs difficulty to know if its worth learning

[hushed forge]

faide, treeree and hugowolfy

treeree only uploads every like 2 or 3 months tho

and hugowolfy might decide to upload every 6 if he feels generous

he streams tho

they both stream frequently

[hushed forge]

with e district in rotation its definitely good to learn

last season you had like 3 buildings in the entire game

this season you have like double that in just e district

[glossy apex]

true

back in my day

when I learnt mantle jumping

it was streamer building

and construction

new gens actually have a reason to learn other than spamming one building and farming clips

[ionic cave]

bet

is the tap strafe thing still there

[devout tusk]

the tap strafe thing

[ionic cave]

ye

i never tried it but i js suddenly remembered people whining about it being nerfed or removed

[devout tusk]

its back

[ionic cave]

how come ppl dont even mention it anymore

is it not good

or just replaced by these other strafes

[quaint karma]

its just a basic thing

[devout tusk]

tap strafing is like pressing w to walk forward

no one talks about walking forward

[glossy apex]

kinda crazy to play mnk and not tap strafe in 2025

[fast spear]

can't live without tap strafing tbh

[ionic cave]

to everyone who said change actuation for jump and crouch

i love you on foenem grave

im cooking superglides easily on 240 now less goo

[glossy apex]

yessir

[glossy apex]

I would uninstall if they removed tap strafing

straight up

[glossy apex]

apex has been my main game for years, but bro

without tap strafing

nah

[ionic cave]

imma try it out

is it hard

or nah

[glossy apex]

nah

veri simple

bro I be instictively tap strafing in other games even tho it's not a thing

I just be doing the inputs

every time I jump

muscle memory

and it still works the same

Bruhh

i play without tapstrafing every single day

its not that bad

you just have to get better at airstrafes

and ig some stuff you simply cant do obviously

[quaint karma]

theres probably at least several cheaters in any given high mmr lobby at all times

just not super obvious

[glossy apex]

why?

[twilit flicker]

i cant imagine playing apex without the movement

it would be so boring

[glossy apex]

ew

[main merlin]

Any good budget keyboards?

I dont wanna drop 200 on wooting

[alpine trail]

its kinda there in val but u dont need to scroll up

so its much easier

guys help me w my mantle

[glossy apex]

looks like you mantle too early

and drop off so you don't get cyote time

or you jump off at the correct height, but don't hold S long enough

[alpine trail]

if its not too much trouble could u like show the input order

or like what u do

mfs hitting a home run on me

[outer sleet]

You'll get it evetually it's all muscle memory anyway. Just try to remember the input order and experiment

I find that looking up is a lot more consistent than looking down since if the zip is closer it can mess you up
