its just mental googoo

wintry scroll
#

Like i sometimes have periods where i cant fully focus in the gamr and autopilot easily for some time

sharp nova
#

skill itself will always be there

ember wagon
#

when im confident and dont think about missed shots i go crazy

sharp nova
#

you just have to work on ways to access it

#

ye

#

cuz ur skill didnt magically come back

#

u just stopped getting in the way

wintry scroll
sharp nova
#

its a hard thing for people

#

like most people struggle with this in some regard

#

its normal

ember wagon
#

i have noticed this that i have this potential locked up but every now and then i will gain insane confidence from imagining me being pro then preform very well

sharp nova
#

main thing is familiarity with what youre doing, and then allowing ur brain to normalise being in a performative state

#

basically avoid giving a shit and just play more

ember wagon
#

@wintry scroll wait yeah im only thinking about the future and that my grinding only matter for the future so maybe that too

#

idk about play more i have 120 hours every 2 weeks

wintry scroll
#

hmm, are u planning to go pro or go big on twitch?

ember wagon
#

i want to be an inspiration but honestly i know i will fail being a streamer because everyone wants to be one and everyones just a useless ttv

#

people only watch the best so i have to get there first

#

i just wanna be an inspiration and i feel so good teaching other people things ive learned idk why

#

so are there other games like apex that have a longer ttk, first person shooter and not halo

wintry scroll
#

But its dead lmao

#

Lets hope ow2 gonna be one hell of a banger

ember wagon
#

doesn't it look the same

wintry scroll
#

Yeah its same game

#

Gotta make a sequel cuz greedy woman abusing company

ember wagon
#

bruh

#

i would play but that game looks like apex future

#

abilities over gun skill 😭

#

jk ive never played OW idk how it works

wintry scroll
#

Aim will carry u to like diamond max

#

Unless ur just thr most cracked widow player

ember wagon
#

is super human fun or whatever its called

wintry scroll
#

Super people

#

Never tried it

ember wagon
#

its not fps anyway

#

maybe warzone?

wintry scroll
#

Like ive seen ppl get that rank within less than 1k hrs

#

But i dont really care, i just focus on my own grind and improvement

#

With that mindset u probably set too high of a standard for yourself

#

Maybe ur good at the game but are constantly not satisfied by your own performance

ember wagon
#

yes

#

thats me

#

lol

#

i feel like i dont deserve hitting masters unless i can pubstump

#

and dont deserve diamond without a 2kd

#

i just dont see the point of putting so much time in without consistency

#

but i still do it anyway

if the guy in the video did a face reveal:

Just started playing Apex BR again and lost 10 gunfights in a row

Meanwhile in arenas

#

what would yall consider a kinda high sens?

hoary hamlet
#

20/360cm

#

would be high sens for me

leaden delta
#

thats nearly double mine ahha

iron dragon
#

10cm

alpine trail
#

17cm

#

was my favorite

leaden delta
#

yall crazy, i kinda want to try a semi fast sens to try and build more mouse control

#

i reckon 25cm would be good

viscid wraith
#

20cm is fun

#

no reason to play it tho

#

over a sens that takes less overall practice and effort to maintain

#

was fun af for the week i used it tho

leaden delta
#

25cm is fun af ong

alpine trail
#

so I just stuck with 17cm

you guys think its a bad idea to vacuum your mousepad

like every now and again

if its not like coated or anything

#

Vacuum?

#

Thats new

hoary hamlet
sharp nova
#

ive done it before

#

its fine

#

tho i dont think there is much point

alpine trail
#

yeah just because my desk was really dusty

#

so I just fucked the vacuum onto my whole desk basically haha

#

I think covid caught me lacking guys

#

I feel my throat being a bit scratchy

#

I was the last man standing in my house

#

but now I must fall too

rugged reef

I work at the emergency department down south. Not worth to come, well just give you IV fluids and make you wait 5 hours and you'll get a chest X-Ray. Be safe buddy, buy some gatorade, and it may suck for a few days

sharp nova

what does gatorade do

tawny comet

bright elm

alpine trail

Hey guys 2 questions, first where has the aimtrainers chat gone to?

#

and why is fuglaab180t median score so low?

deep linden
bright elm
#

it's been like that for months

proper laurel
#

has it

#

well as you can see I am not that active

#

I basically only write here

bright elm
#

no im just letting you know

#

we merged both chats

#

forgot when but i know it was mid 2021

proper laurel
#

i see thanks

tawny comet

tawny comet

  • flatline nerf
hoary hamlet
#

hold up

#

volt

#

NAH MAN

#

i love that gun

tawny comet
#

hammerpoints are coming back aswell

#

crypto buff

forest nimbus
#

Interesting

#

Well

#

This will be something to see lol

twilit flicker
#

alternator 😻

little verge
#

Interesting hop up. I like the idea of movement based reloading, makes the PK more offensive focused and Mastiff hopup is more defensive.

#

But hammerpoints back?

tawny comet
#

hammerpoints for re45

little verge
#

Can't wait to be 0.6d by an RE45 with hammerpoints and 85% headshots.

proper laurel
#

I'm just happy caustic gets nerfed

#

hopefully less people will play him

tawny comet
#

πŸ™

sharp nova
#

idk y anyone is surprised about flatty nerf

lost swan
#

Anasheeeeee

forest nimbus
#

It’s what

#

1 more shot for blue and purple

#

And 2 more for red

livid cliff
#

ahahaah volt cp weapon

#

what a meme

#

just as i was gonna buy the new skin for it as well

bright elm
#

volt sadge

livid cliff
#

r9 gon be next

bright elm
#

no r99 is the worst smg OMEGALUL

livid cliff
#

they put alternator when it made no sense

#

now they put volt

#

makes no sense

little verge
#

Volt package instead of Rampage.

#

Feels bad man.

bright elm
#

surprised by that too

livid cliff
#

i can barely find enough energy ammo as it is man

bright elm
#

i thought rampage was going cp for sure

#

@sharp nova thoughts

#

?

#

no way we already getting a 500hz

elfin garden
#

Might be a stretch, but I’m transitioning to apex and trying to find some people to play with.

little verge
#

Yeah, no point doing 500hz when most games are so poorly optimized even 280/1080p is hard to achieve much less in a stable way.

bright elm
#

csgo

#

and val

livid cliff
#

val?

#

most ppl dont even get 200fps stable

elfin garden
#

@bright elm I’ll add you and play sometime?

bright elm
livid cliff
#

yeah the ppl with nasa pcs

bright elm
#

steam profile if u click my name

livid cliff
#

either way it aint gonna hit 500 stable

little verge
#

Yeah, it's basically a CSGO/Quake 3 monitor only.

livid cliff
#

its legit useless

bright elm
#

still nice to see tech advance

#

lol

#

just because the montior is only for a niche audience (pros) doesn't mean we can't appreciate technology advancements

little verge
#

Wait whaaaaat. Flatty/Longbow aren't ground loot anymore? Fuck, gonna be tripping over Rampages now.

bright elm
#

still tho i swear 390hz

#

entered the market like 5 months back

sharp nova
#

If apex wasnt capped ud see it being more valuable in a gen or two of hardware improvement

#

Also I really wanna see ow with tuned prime ddr5

bright elm
sharp nova
#

Surely it just floors it to the cap

#

Meh it still drops in team fights a fair bit

bright elm
#

not by much

#

from experience at least

viscid wraith
#

welp im now valkyrie from siege but instead of c4 i have an emp, hopefully cryptos animations are short tho so i can still do movement tech while doing it like my earlier concerns

#

im actually kinda hyped for the changes, it doesnt seem all that op but its definitely better

bright elm
#

no fucking way

#

crypto changes???

little verge
#

The important thing is fuck Caustic.

bright elm
#

i thought they abandoned crypto

viscid wraith
#

he can now toss his camera straight forward in a line and itll either reach max distance or latch onto a wall like a valk cam

#

and his emp is no longer tied directly to drone

#

its like a grenade

#

he can still manually pilot drone for its abilities as well tho

#

this is actually dope af

volt CP = controllers nerf

rotund fox
#

true but : (

viscid wraith
#

im just happy i can be that weirdo with an alternator in final zone again πŸ‘

rotund fox
#

same the alternator goes HARD

viscid wraith
#

alternator wingman is literally just kovaaks guns

rotund fox
#

getting alternator off drop 😍

viscid wraith
#

aimbot everyone

sharp nova
#

Alternator is babe

viscid wraith
#

hipfire also so good on it

rotund fox
#

i literally abuse the flatline rn so this isjust the apex devs saying FUCK YOU to me

viscid wraith
#

lmao

rotund fox
#

i have to cr*ft it now 🀒

viscid wraith
#

i think everyone does bro

#

flatline is so dumb op for a while

rotund fox
#

i guess its for the best πŸ˜”

#

i litterally rail ppl with that gun

viscid wraith
#

win a headson fight with care pack weapons

#

its been insane

rotund fox
#

ill just go back to playing r3 wingman ig

sharp nova
#

It's just a r301 that uses less ammo

#

And effectively has a larger mag

rotund fox
#

u can one clip someone w a flatline in about a second or less

#

its crazy

viscid wraith
#

also with the nerfed light gun pool everyone had heavy

sharp nova
#

And better hipd

viscid wraith
#

so ammo was never an issue

sharp nova
#

I'm happy with nerf tbh

#

Even if I love the gun

viscid wraith
#

im overall p hyped

#

control

#

crypto qol changes

#

alternator

#

yum yum

sharp nova
#

I want a cool loba skin

viscid wraith

viscid wraith
#

rotund fox
#

it does

#

like

#

i actually like the re45 a lot

viscid wraith
#

its already almost on par with r9 while being a pistol

rotund fox
#

gonna be a demon 😈

viscid wraith
#

now its just better

rotund fox
#

im kind of really disappointed and scared for season 12 but whatever im sure its fine

#

as long as they nerf the rampage even just a little bit

#

idc

viscid wraith
#

i wont care about rampage as long as its not always a loadout in control

#

since i wont be touching br for 3 weeks

#

lmao

#

if they dont bring control perm in s13 tho im done with apex i want respawn mode

#

lmao

#

fuck arenas

sharp nova
#

I hope control is good

#

Tho don't think I'll be playing loba

viscid wraith
#

cant be worse than br so heres to hoping πŸ‘

sharp nova
#

Guess I play horizon instead

rotund fox
#

yea im praying its good

#

i am also praying that the stats are NOT separate

#

axctually

#

now that i think about it

#

they probably will be 😒

#

too easy to kill farm otherwise

sharp nova
#

It's a ltm so it def will be at the start

#

It'll probs be a third category if it goes permanent

viscid wraith
#

theyve already said cointrol will have its own badges

#

stats at the start tho will just be added to your base

rugged reef
#

hmmm

#

probably much easier to get a 4k in control

dusky summit
#

gaming

proper laurel
#

So quite a dumb question but how do I stop being hardstuck in d4? I only soloq and what seems to happen is that I get like 1 win then 4 games where I die off the drop or close to so it's a perpetual cycle. Ofcourse get better but usually when someone is hardstuck they wouldn't be winning multiple games each session

#

or am I wrong in thinking that

alpine trail
#

it will be hard solo q ing

#

vod reviews are the best way to overcome

proper laurel
#

Oh I know what Im bad at

#

I simply havent played the gameenough

alpine trail
#

in solo q its a 50/50 either you are good enough to carry every time or you get lucky with decent team mates

proper laurel
#

gamesense,movement

#

I push ppl 3v1

alpine trail
#

okay so then play more legit is the only answer

#

if you know what you're doing wrong work on improving those things

proper laurel
#

yeah I agree

#

I wrote

#

get better in my first msg

#

I was wondering

#

how do I win

#

like

#

2 games out of 10

#

then lose all the others

#

for a net 0 gain in the end

#

shouldn't I be losing em all or perform average?

#

this is all for next season ofc

sharp nova
#

Huh

jovial rain
#

Hey I just noticed a weird issue. I can't hear any audio from sources outside my fov

sharp nova
#

😹

jovial rain
#

There's some more complicated stuff going on too like I only hear shots if they land within my fov. I can see people shooting, but I can't hear the shots if they hit the wall behind me

viscid wraith
#

you have audio???!!!

jovial rain
#

lolol

#

So it's not just me?

viscid wraith
#

im memeing, im not sure whats wrong with your end to cause your audio to be a cone

jovial rain
#

Oh ok lol

proper laurel
#

sometime 1 person sounds like 30 sometimes u can get jumped by a fullteam and not even notice

jovial rain
#

But like I can throw down an arc star in the firing range and it makes no noise if I turn around

proper laurel
#

No idea man, never happened to me

jovial rain
#

If I grab crafting materials in arenas and turn my view quickly the sound cuts off

#

Mid effect

#

It's very weird

proper laurel
#

try reinstalling?

jovial rain
#

Oof

viscid wraith
#

^

#

ye i would do a verify files

jovial rain
#

I'm in class now so I'll give it a shot

proper laurel
#

thats how games work though

#

and tech stuff in general

jovial rain
#

Oh ok

#

Where is that setting?

#

Dope!

#

Thanks

proper laurel
#

@jovial rain if you're in class listen to class dude or you'll end up like me

#

and trust me you dont want that

jovial rain
#

We'll see if that works. I have my headphones plugged into a DAC that has its own 7.1 emulation stuff. I have it set to stereo, but windows still sees it as a 7.1 device. The DAC should downmix properly

#

Nah man it's only Engineering Thermodynamics II how bad can it be /s

#

Only if it doesn't screw me lol

#

It hasn't been an issue on any other game and I didn't notice anything wrong in apex until today

#

Swapping from 7.1 to stereo in the software doesn't change anything in windows

#

Yeah we'll see

#

It's fixed!

#

I should've tried launching between the repair and adding the launch command to know for sure which did it, but it's working now

#

Thank ye @proper laurel and @alpine trail and @viscid wraith

dusky summit
#

i have secret apex edition

#

my friends are saying they can't see the store

yo, was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for aiming youtubers i could watch? i recently found out i find it very motivating so i started watching them before i aim train for the day....for example i really enjoy Viscose videos...TS and Reactive tracking but will watch anything/any game :D

mellow kestrel
#

idk why some ppl say havoc hipfire is bad lol

turbid condor
#

ur a demon thats why

viscid wraith
#

Havoc I almost only hipfire.idk why people take shit about it

#

Hipfire in general so dumb in this game

#

After playing so much Titanfall over the weekend I started hipfiring at medium range too

#

I hit way more than I should lol

tawny comet
alpine trail
#

this whole playing only gibby flatline is hilarious

#

this gun and character is so scuffed

#

also i really need to work on movement while shooting grind time

#

so I can take drop how much damage I take in my 1v1's

#

but as gibby being a walking planet its hard

fair trellis
#

games fucking boring with the downtime

#

holy shit

alpine trail
#

control mode is our saviour

#

but only for 3 weeks

#

nothing good lasts forever

fair trellis
#

its not staying even if it gets good reception

#

i already know

alpine trail
#

yeah fr

#

maybe

#

just maybe

#

by a small sliver of hope

#

thay have another ltm lined up for after it directly

#

which they will tease at some point towards the end of control

that mastiff skin is fire but please take that scope off

viscid wraith

Bruh no shot my fucking coworker just asked me if I played apex - dudes on PS4, says he's just getting back into it but hes just getting dunked on

random thistleBOT

Yikes...

viscid wraith

Mans said he got off last night

regal rose

After getting wiped by some sweaty ass crypto

πŸ’€

regal rose
#

People who say they just getting back into it just can’t trust lol

viscid wraith
#

That fucking crypto was me lmfao

regal rose
#

Now your coworker go tell the manager who that crypto was then the manager looks at you lol

viscid wraith
#

Mans just got off work he asked if I'd carry his ass lol

#

Aim assist recruitment complete lol

ember wagon
#

wait so you shit on your co worker basically or are you joking

viscid wraith
#

I shit on my coworker yes

#

I was the reason he and his buds got off last night lmao

regal rose
#

Thats funny lol

ember wagon
#

no way

#

what a small world

viscid wraith
#

He asked if I clipped it, how do I tell him nicely it wasn't impressive enough to clip πŸ’€

ember wagon
#

and what a bad matchmaking system

viscid wraith
#

Tbf it was middle.of the night duos

#

Queues get small

ember wagon
#

thats pretty cool tho

#

oh yeah your in the same region

viscid wraith
#

Is why I usually am playing Tokyo or new York when it's that late

regal rose
#

Especially if everyone gets on at the same time most of the time

ember wagon
#

yo should i be micro flicking or tracking because i just watched a tutorial on how to imrpove tracking and it was someone on warzone showing you had to like keep micro flicking back towards the target if you get off of it

regal rose
#

Would static be good for that?

viscid wraith
#

Queues were super small last night cause Sunday night I ran into Asher too lol

viscid wraith
#

Warzone aim is easy

#

Flick and kill repeat

#

Doesn't apply very well to apex

ember wagon
#

goshhhh

#

this is so hard i wish i could just track

#

i feel like i hit a wall

viscid wraith
#

Same it takes a lot of time and effort

mellow kestrel
#

@ember wagon do some smoothness training perhaps

#

if you struggle to track smoothly and stay on target

viscid wraith
#

Scrubby did you try 2.5

ember wagon
#

only problem is kovaaks doesn't transfer for me

#

only apex aim trainer applys for me i feel like cause i gotta move while shooting

regal rose
#

Thats how i been feeling lately with kovaaks

mellow kestrel
#

play movement scenarios then

ember wagon
#

is there a good smoothness one?

mellow kestrel
#

i was feeling that way a looong time aswell

#

play close mid ad lfs dodge

#

eventually the anti-mirror one

regal rose
#

I’ll try those

viscid wraith
#

Just play torje reactivity with close mid ad and close tappy

#

Goated setuo

mellow kestrel
#

^^

viscid wraith
#

PureG also the goat but more general skill

ember wagon
#

aight bet

#

so torje reactivity has movement

viscid wraith
#

Also apex mlsi headshot click is amazing

mellow kestrel
#

it doesnt

weary mist
#

PureG Apex routine is 🐐

ember wagon
#

are there any movement ones

mellow kestrel
#

but it's good for learning not to predict

#

and be reactive

i developed a bad habit with apex aim trainer though, i basically anti mirror sub consciously now just cause its easier to hit shots like that

viscid wraith
#

The close mid ad is

#

Anti mirror is good

ember wagon
#

i do it 100% of the time

viscid wraith
#

Mirror gets you killed sometimes

mellow kestrel
#

@ember wagon

viscid wraith
#

But knowing when mirror is applicable is also good

mellow kestrel
#

sCrub OCℒ️

ember wagon
#

ty scrub !!

weary mist
#

Anti mirror is good cause of the apex recoil system

#

Basically no recoil when doing it

viscid wraith
#

Ye that as well

#

So dumb lmao

#

People that think there's recoil in apex πŸ’€

ember wagon
#

the reason i started doing it is because i saw that recoil smoothing video

#

i hit all my shots when i anti mirror but miss everything when i cant

#

so it kinda sucks

mellow kestrel
#

recoil smoothing is another reason that keeping good smoothness is important

viscid wraith
#

I mean, I almost only anti or cs stutter strafe and have no issues

mellow kestrel
#

if you're shaky you wont move your aim at a constant rate

#

so recoil smoothing won't work as well

#

in the situations where it applies

weary mist
viscid wraith
#

The amount of mnk (not roller don't do vs roller) that get fucked up by stutter strafe is hilarious

weary mist
#

Could be not knowing how to track the target

mellow kestrel
#

ofc

ember wagon
#

i shake when i get excited so i learned to apply patience in game

mellow kestrel
#

but if you're tracking the target and doing like

#

microflicks kinda

viscid wraith
#

Stubby knows all of this

mellow kestrel
#

instead of tracking in one clean smooth motion

ember wagon
#

if im patient i dont get shakey

viscid wraith
#

He just gets in his head

#

Every day

#

Haha

ember wagon
#

no but its different for me

#

like i have to do all this extra shit to have a normal mindset because i think i developed a bad one early on

viscid wraith
#

So did i

#

It takes effort and time

#

It's not gonna change in a day or two

ember wagon
#

for sure

#

im slowly improving

viscid wraith
#

Conscious effort over a month was huge for me

ember wagon
#

i learned how not to tilt anymore so thats good

#

what does that mean

#

conscious effort

viscid wraith
#

Thinking about improving

#

Not just going thru the motions

ember wagon
#

wait what

#

oh ok

viscid wraith
#

Thinking about what you're trying to change about your habits

weary mist
ember wagon
#

it just sucks my mind doesn't do it on its own

weary mist
#

And knowing how to work on it

viscid wraith
#

Mine neither bro

#

It's a pita

ember wagon
#

pita?

fair trellis
#

get better genetics

viscid wraith
#

Pain in the ass

ember wagon
#

oh

viscid wraith
#

Fuck genetics lmao

ember wagon
#

yeah cause my other friend be like idk how to aim i just subconsciously do it and hes so much better then me in aiming

viscid wraith
#

Don't compare yourself

ember wagon
#

like he auto learned it idk

viscid wraith
#

There's zero reason to compare to others

ember wagon
#

yeah for sure that would kill me

viscid wraith
#

You learn at your rate

weary mist
viscid wraith
#

It's not a race it's a journey

#

Best saying I've heard lately

#

Ridds full of good advice like that

ember wagon
#

if i thought about the facts i put 4x the amount of time and got 10x less results then everyone else i would probably die

viscid wraith
#

Stubby you know the shit I had to improve everyone's got their obstacles - like if I looked at my play time comparitively bro holy fuck I'd be a mental mess

ember wagon
#

no i was saying i dont think like that anymore

viscid wraith
#

I'm already scuffed, have to tell myself to ignore it

ember wagon
#

only sometimes

viscid wraith
#

Ok good

#

Sometimes happens

ember wagon
#

its true but i cant think about it

viscid wraith
#

We're human after all

ember wagon
#

the best thing i learned recently honestly was to think outside to box and stop looking for others approval

viscid wraith
#

Good

ember wagon
#

i was pretty much only trying stuff if i found it on reddit

#

or goggle

viscid wraith
#

Ew lol

weary mist
#

goggle

ember wagon
#

no because like when i google anything about aim issues some overwatch aim thing from 5 years ago would tell me shit thats unhelpful

viscid wraith
#

If I see an APAC pro do something I do it beyond that I just play my game lol

ocean flame
#

?

ember wagon
#

idrc

#

im tired of insta dying

#

to flatline

#

deserved nerf guns broken

viscid wraith
#

Yeah no flatline off drop going to be nice

ember wagon
#

they nerfed caustic hopefully

viscid wraith
#

Getting shredded by one with white armor is a pain

#

They did him good

#

You can always shoot barrels now

#

He's still very good

#

But not as dumb

fair trellis
ember wagon
#

YES

fair trellis
#

and u just say oh its all good bro

ember wagon
#

kinda true

viscid wraith
ember wagon
#

but thats if they're not trying to improve though right

viscid wraith
#

But any progress is progress

weary mist
ember wagon
#

spiyt i started the season with 1.7kd and now its 1.6

viscid wraith
#

Ok

ember wagon
#

i have 3k games this season so im liTERALLY DROPPING

#

SKILL

viscid wraith
#

No

weary mist
#

Nah bruh what

viscid wraith
#

Ignore your kd

ember wagon
#

maybe because i swicthed to main wriath

#

my bad i thought about kd again you right

fair trellis
viscid wraith
#

Stubby I'm hardstuck 1.7kd doesn't matter tho I just keep chugging along

ember wagon
#

spiyt but like

viscid wraith
#

It'll improve as I improve but it's a useless stat

ember wagon
#

if i play everyday and it doesn't go up from what it started

weary mist
ember wagon
#

so in 90 days basically..

fair trellis
#

you mean to say some are more capable to change

ember wagon
#

in 1.6

viscid wraith
#

It just means you're either playing reckless or pushing yourself

fair trellis
#

thats what your quote means

viscid wraith
#

Nothing really wrong unless you're like a legit below 1 kd lol

weary mist
viscid wraith
#

Just focus on improving, don't look at your stats

#

No one cares what your kd is and anyone that does is a little shit stain

weary mist
#

I mean that if you think what you're doing is correct then it's hard as shit to change it

ember wagon
#

its not even what others think tho

#

if i drop .10 in 90 days

#

what does that say about my improvement

#

this isn't a bad day thing like lol this is 90 days

viscid wraith
#

It means you're being reckless or pushing yourself harder lol

ember wagon
#

what does that mean?

viscid wraith
#

If you play your limits you're gonna die more

ember wagon
#

you're supposed to push yourself

viscid wraith
#

You're trying to get past your limits

#

Which is good

#

But you're going to fail a lot

#

It happens

#

Failure is part of success

#

Cause it teaches you what not to do

ember wagon
#

it really just comes down to im slower then everyone else and ill just be a 20k hour andy before i hit pred

#

smh

viscid wraith
#

Stubby I couldn't play in higher than a t4 league after 10k hrs in tac fps

#

So what

#

Just gotta look at the positive and focus on trying to correct what you know you need to fix while watching for new things to add to the list

ember wagon
#

wait what season did you start spiyt

weary mist
viscid wraith
#

I started the day after launch and played until end of s1

#

Came back last month of s8

weary mist
#

Hard stuck diamond since s2 πŸ’ͺ πŸ’ͺ

ember wagon
#

i understand the grind i just wish maybe there was a pro player who could like tell their story about how hard it was

fair trellis
#

why dont you just change your old habits bro

viscid wraith
ember wagon
#

ok

viscid wraith
#

They all worked full time jobs and won the champs

#

They worked their asses off

weary mist
viscid wraith
#

It's hard stubby , when I joined this server initially I talked a lot like you

#

It takes time and effort both of which you have

#

You'll get there

ember wagon
#

thanks spiyt

#

well how do i figure out what bad habit i have in aiming?

#

because i know my aim sucks i just dont understand why

weary mist
ember wagon
#

like sometimes my brain will literally not send signals to my hand and my hand will literally like just stop tracking for 1 second

#

like on the benchmarks?

young nacelle
weary mist
viscid wraith
#

Stubby we need to do 1v1s sometime - with euph we spent a shit load of time in the firing range with me just running around and we isolated what his problems were and he just hard focused on them

ember wagon
#

im down now if you are

#

whenever your down im down im active all the time

viscid wraith
#

And he just blew the fuxk up so fast

ember wagon
#

like anger?

viscid wraith
#

Focus and effort + him being 15 is op lol

#

I'm at work rn but I'll hit you up if I see you're on

ember wagon
#

ill be on lol

#

bet

viscid wraith
#

He just skyrocketed so fast

ember wagon
#

oh damn

weary mist
#

What were his problems, out of curiosity?

young nacelle
#

I wish I could 1v1 but no one here is near my mediocre skill level πŸ˜‚

viscid wraith
#

He struggled with reactivity, click timing, and watching enemy model

ember wagon
#

swamp you can advertise for 1v1s in the official apex server and find some nice people

#

it doesn't matter if you're better or worse aslong as you're learning

viscid wraith
#

Swamp idc about skill level of you want to 1v1 with just good minded people I can add you to my dc

young nacelle
weary mist
#

I used to 1v1 people who were better than me and always get shit on πŸ’€

#

Pretty good learning experience though

viscid wraith
#

Only rule is don't be a dick haha everyone's just trying to improve so assholes get booted so it's a learning atmosphere type beat

young nacelle
#

Yeah I’d say I’m pretty chill but that might change if I get destroyed 20 times in a row

viscid wraith
#

Maybe one day we'll be an aim group hollow0MONKA hollow0MONKA lol

ember wagon
#

dope

charred plank
viscid wraith
#

What you eyeballing me for splash hmm stare stare stare

remote river
viscid wraith
#

Lmao

viscid wraith

#

dude same

#

he deserves it

#

I actively have 2 15 year olds motivating me to get better πŸ˜‚

young nacelle
remote river
#

i was so hype when i saw his vid on my yt recommended

weary mist
#

I somehow stopped malding by just logically deconstructing reasons why I died and taking everything as a learning experience instead of blaming it on the enemy.

remote river
#

^^^

weary mist
#

Might help some of you if you mald too

viscid wraith
#

I wish my old entry frag would play apex, crackhead 16yo with literally zero brain all aim

#

He got sucked into rust

ember wagon
remote river
ember wagon
#

IT transfers for me

#

i think because of the movement

weary mist
#

Just try moving first

#

And seeing how much the bot moves on the screen

ember wagon
#

ok

#

do i track while doing this and why am i doing this

weary mist
#

Literally only to see how much

#

Now try tracking that amount

#

Not more, just enough

ember wagon
#

he gets closer and further away though

mellow kestrel
#

overflicking hard

remote river
#

smoothness over speed

remote river
#

speed is negligible if you aint hitting shit

weary mist
#

It's important that you understand how the bot is moving before you can tackle tracking it.

ember wagon
#

wdym by how its moving

weary mist
#

Like how much and how fast you need to kove your mouse

viscid wraith
#

Now he just plays hours of rust pvp servers

fair trellis
#

also this kids talent is wasdted

viscid wraith
#

The two statements have zero connection tho

ember wagon
#

damn he pulled up the receipts

#

jit trippin

fair trellis
#

how is talent different

viscid wraith
#

Ofc genetics plays a role but it doesn't limit people or stop them from improving

#

Zero reason for people to consider genetics when they're improving

fair trellis
#

it does

viscid wraith
#

It just provides some people a higher starting point or base line or general threshold

#

Except at the very very very top level of play

#

If genetics and circumstance mattered there would be no fucking way I would be playing fps games

#

Competitive fps games*

fair trellis
#

not sure if i should lie or what

weary mist
#

I dunno if this is relevant, but I started in gold and now I actually have a few master scores

#

I thought diamond would be my limit

ember wagon
#

thats honestly amazing

weary mist
#

Like genetic limit or whatever

ember wagon
#

thats what you thought was your limit tho

viscid wraith
#

Like even at the top level, you can't really straight up call a prodigy like tenz (mechanically) better than for example subroza who is by no means bad but he's not tenz

#

Genetics play a role but they are not a defining factor

weary mist
#

Anyone can make progress if they want

ember wagon
#

wait boys so you know how you said dont be fast and try and be more accurate but when i slow down then my tracking is behind

fair trellis
#

thats the impression i get

ember wagon
#

kiku why you being like this

viscid wraith
fair trellis
#

oh okay

viscid wraith
#

I'm not improving cause I'm not trying like I need to

#

Not taking the steps properly

#

Been just autopiloting

ember wagon
viscid wraith
#

This changes here next week I'm scheduling myself again properly

weary mist
ember wagon
#

should i go slower i dont mind

fair trellis
turbid condor
#

U play high sens ? @ember wagon

#

looks high

magic juniper
#

Just aim bro r/ DiamondAdvice pepeLaff

ember wagon
#

i play 1.6 apex and 800 dpi

turbid condor
#

ah

#

i play 1.4

fair trellis
#

oh bro u havent really improved for 2000 hours? np u got it bro

viscid wraith
fair trellis
#

its all good

regal rose
#

i play 1.8 lol but i think i need to lower it

ember wagon
#

kiku you're right im doing something wrong i just dont know what it is and im working towards it

fair trellis
#

ive been at the same level since season 7

ember wagon
#

its not like im auto piloting

fair trellis
#

despite trying i cant break my habits

ember wagon
#

do you have distractions irl

#

or something

magic juniper
ember wagon
#

if i tell myself to stop it doesn't work so ima try slower courses

velvet orchid
#

woooohoooooo

#

worlds edge removed from rotation in s12

#

fucking finally

magic juniper
#

What helped me was lowering my sens but that's sort of a cheat pepeLaff

viscid wraith
#

Stubby do you get enough sleep and drink a little caffeine - that last clip looks like I did last week cause I was getting 2-3 hrs sleep and was basically a zombie

#

This what a fresh run looked like comparitively

ember wagon
#

yeah i been sleeping 4 hours a day and drinking monsters

magic juniper
#

What's even more important is really training your reading skills/eyes

viscid wraith
#

Not calling insane* btw

ember wagon
#

but thats the past 3 days only

#

its mostly 7-8 hours

viscid wraith
#

Ok ye

regal rose
#

is monsters good for you?

ember wagon
#

thats not the reason

#

only the past 3 days like that

viscid wraith
#

Train your eyes

magic juniper
#

This will sound big corny but you need to look at the target and only the target

viscid wraith
#

^

cursive hamlet
#

what video settings do u guys use

ember wagon
#

thats true

#

when i do that i hit all my shots

cursive hamlet
#

i tried playing this game and i am not a good aimer or anything but when i get shot i cant see them

viscid wraith
#

All low + exec to butcher the things I can't alter

magic juniper
#

Describing the proper feeling sounds so dumb but I'm sure you guys know what I'm talking about

ember wagon
#

but then i think about aiming and lose all ability

magic juniper
#

That laser focus lock on

#

I have a few mental tricks that I try to get myself to focus

cursive hamlet
#

every char blends in with the surroundings it takes me like a full 1 sec to find them

ember wagon
#

yeah project is there also like this thin where you just tell your brain to track and it does it sometimes like its weird

cursive hamlet
#

and then my shields are gone

viscid wraith
#

I visualize zooming my eyes like binoculars lol I don't miss after I do it

magic juniper
#

Nah I do dumb things too

#

I'll draw it in paint it's too hard to explain

ember wagon
#

ok

#

i visualise the feeling of my mouse on the pad and how smooth it feels in a direction and sometime track perfect like that

#

but it only works for a bit

#

or the feeling of cloth on my skin being smooth

viscid wraith
#

Stubby are you in PureG discord, ridd is an expert on the technical and detailed side of things and picking his brain is always good for me

ember wagon
#

no invite me ill check it out

magic juniper
#

@ember wagon for me that never works because I focus on arm mechanics rather than letting my body figure it out

viscid wraith
#

Look up their twitter

#

It's on there

ember wagon
#

ok bet

magic juniper
#

Ok so imagine the target

#

Now try to visualize you aiming around it

#

Like you zoom in, then you see all parts of it 3D

ember wagon
#

ok

magic juniper
#

Don't worry about your arm

ember wagon
#

why around it though and not on it

magic juniper
#

Don't grip too hard but some tension is honestly fine

#

Force yourself to look at it

velvet orchid
#

voltaic members explaining how to look at targets 2022 edition

magic juniper
#

I've tried what feels like so many things lmao

velvet orchid
#

hi soiyt

#

spiyt

viscid wraith
#

Lol hi

ember wagon
#

so im imagining not aiming directly on him but around him i dont get it

velvet orchid
#

your best bet to see properly in br games

#

is to buy a BenQ monitor

#

with proper settings

magic juniper
#

No you're aiming direct at the target...it's like you see only the target

#

Sort of like a tunnel vision but in a good way

ember wagon
#

ok hang on i just did exactly what you described and hit all my shots on this scenario

magic juniper
#

lmfao I'm on that bro science ish

viscid wraith
#

Stubby, ezpz explanation - look at target, drag target to center of your screen. Your arm and crosshair don't exist you are dragging the moving target to the center of your screen.

ember wagon
#

it make just be palcebo

magic juniper
#

It's all placebo just aim bro

viscid wraith
#

Is all I do besides my binocular weirdo shit

#

But that's more cause I have lazy eye and need glasses lol

magic juniper
#

I mean after doing so many things all I can really recommend are things not to do

#
  1. Don't grip too hard
velvet orchid
#

drip too hard

weary mist
#

I realize just how much of aim training is trial and error and very hard to put in to words

magic juniper
#
  1. Don't worry about grip (unless you're getting pain)
velvet orchid
#

spiyt

#

I'm almost blind past few meters in my right eye if i don't sleep enough

#

try sleeping more

#

πŸ’€

viscid wraith
#

Yeah I know that what I need badly

magic juniper
#

@ember wagon I have other focus tricks and some translate to better vaaks scores for me but don't transfer to Apex

viscid wraith
#

12+hr shifts are a bitch

magic juniper
#

The one I showed you is what I usually do now if my aim is on some booty doo

velvet orchid
#

my left eye does all the seeing

magic juniper
#

I used to do some weird ish where I would try to see out of one eye more

#

Too much effort lmfao

viscid wraith
#

My aim improved the most when I just stopped thinking about aiming

#

And started thinking about my target

magic juniper
#

^

viscid wraith
#

My mouse control isn't a problem

#

I'm smooth af

weary mist
#

That's probably so confusing tho

viscid wraith
#

I just need to know what I'm looking at

weary mist
#

For a beginner

magic juniper
#

When your eye starts to get "trained" it gets hard to watch people miss or whiff shots

#

because it really comes down to like "what you're looking at"

ember wagon
viscid wraith
#

That's p normal

#

To chain mistakes

#

You get over it with more time

#

You learn to not panic or hyper focus

magic juniper
#

@ember wagon alongside getting your eyes to focus what got me most of my Diamond scores was trying to aim "with less effort"

#

Like honestly grip the mouse however hard you want (without pain)

ember wagon
#

i dont grip my mouse hard

magic juniper
#

but when you try to do mouse movements, try to exert like 10-25% effort at most

ember wagon
#

ok

magic juniper
#

Then again I play 43 cm so it might not apply lmfao

#

But on the lowkey for 4 months I was accidentally playing on 21 cm because I thought I was on 400 dpi 2.4

#

but I was actually on 800 dpi 2.4

weary mist
#

This really do be r/DiamondAdvice
