i started mnk like 6 months ago

blazing path
#

hmm i think its hard cuz idk what dpi and sens u play on and when u warmup etc

#

Cuz arenas is just close range fighting

#

But u prob need the game sens

wide patrol
#

yhh thought so BR is so much harder i legit feel like a bot majority of the time xD

#

but yh sens rn is 1.8 with 800 dpi

blazing path
#

Shouldnt be bad u have alot of mouse space?

alpine trail
#

its not sens just play more br to get better at br

blazing path
#

I mean game sense

wide patrol
alpine trail
#

focus on positioning n stuff ig

blazing path
#

its just ingame sens like he said positioning etc try to play with ur team

#

even when they are not good

wide patrol
blazing path
#

U do aimtrainers?

#

I recommend using iron sight 1x hcog or digi

#

Try flicking on the bots on firing range watch some vids for tips thats what i did when i first started playing mnk

wide patrol
#

not really i kinda might do a little gridshot for like 5 mins if i play in the morning to wake up my arm xD i bought kovaaks but dont use it haha

blazing path
#

I mean gridshot is perfect for that

#

but u dont really do large flicks

#

its like close range

#

so

cedar wadi
#

youre in one of the greatest discords known to man for aim training resources and youre not taking advantage of itwiddHaa

blazing path
#

First

#

then move to different task in aimtrainers

#

i guess

cedar wadi
wide patrol
blazing path
#

cuz u want to get better in apex right

#

Dont try routines try other tasks. Otherwise it gets boring after a while

wide patrol
#

u reckon the benchmarks are good?

cedar wadi
#

sounds like an opinion

#

Benchmarks are good to try every once and a while to see where youre at

sour locust
#

wanna start playing apex, is there any good newbie guides?

cedar wadi
#

do bench's and then find a fundamentals playlist for that rank

wide patrol
blazing path
#

U can fix that later

sour locust
blazing path
#

Dont care about kd rn

sour locust
blazing path
#

Care about improving

#

How do i do the bench mark thingies when it says how far u are with the ranks and what do i have to download pdf or?

#

I never knew how that worked

cedar wadi
blazing path
#

How can u see the progges

sour locust
#

its hard to understand vods when u totally new to the game

blazing path
#

thats what i mean

sour locust
#

i`ve played apex for fun a few times

cedar wadi
#

@sour locust i think dazs has some good guides on youtube

cedar wadi
#

just type your score in

#

bing bong

wide patrol
#

does committing to aim training actually work 😅 as in the ingame translation

cedar wadi
#

in the hitting your shots department

#

yes

You made your own copy?

blazing path
#

I just downloaded it from google drive intro pdf

#

pdf

cedar wadi
#

YEa

little verge
#

You're telling me the level 500 console player with 300 kills isn't just better? pepeThink

spring patrol
#

yes

little verge
#

Probably the biggest reason I lost all interest in the BR side of Apex lol.

#

Can't wait for control to come back.

placid root
#

Played the game for 8 hours today and somehow did not get fatigued

#

While on some days, I feel like my aim suffers after 3 hours

leaden delta
#

why does 39cm feel fast now

#

once i get used to a sens, it just feels so wrong

plush burrow
#

Compared to mnk

#

Does Horizon have better air lurching?

queen yacht

I noticed only when looking at a clip

alpine trail
#

Who's down to get to pred with me tonight on Arenas?

#

Diamond/ plat players?

#

I am streaming! 😁

chilly thicket
#

is r301 better or car

#

also is mastiff better than the peacekepeer

ocean depot
#

i always thought the debate was r301 and like a hemlock or rampage or some other midrange gun

#

i didnt know they competed directly with one another, people always told me the car was close range dueling and the r301 was a flex weapon for mid and close

chilly thicket
#

ah

#

interesting

#

so car is close

#

r301 is mid and close

#

but car is better at close

ocean depot
#

thats the consensus because you can hip fire it with pretty good accuracy, but the r301 is still good simply because you want to take it anyway for the mid range from all the players i see running it, ive been looking for pros who run like double CAR but i havent seen anyone who runs 2 SMG instead of mid range/close range weapon setups, i bet people do run double SMG tho, just havent seen someone who plays like that yet

chilly thicket
#

would you take the car over the r301?

#

or does it just depend on preferanmce

harsh ivy
#

R301 is good at any range

chilly thicket
#

so r301 is better to take if you had to choose because unless you run up to someone everytime you'll always take long range mid range fights

little verge
#

R301 is like the jack of all trades gun. Reliable, easy to use, and good at pretty much any range depending on optics.

chilly thicket
#

ah

nova vine
#

only time i get impressed abt controll

#

is that one dude who is insane movement on controller

#

@spring patrol i have a question how often do you one clip people

harsh ivy
chilly thicket
#

aight

#

ty

harsh ivy
#

If I have a car I usually have a wingman

#

Wingman car is really good

viscid wraith
#

car with a 2x is one of the best guns in the game. obv 301 has more range but car is bae atm

harsh ivy
#

The car slaps

#

I still use the r99 tho i spray better with it

nova vine
#

idk why

#

what can i do to improve my wingman

viscid wraith
#

i never pick up r9 anymore unless i have too, car is just too good

#

once you get good with it theres zero reason to use r9 unfortunately

spring patrol
#

viscid wraith
#

lol

#

dont spam fire, time your shots

nova vine
#

oh ok

fair trellis
#

is there a trick to car recoil? i can beam medium range with r99 just fine not with car tho

viscid wraith
#

shake left right and then shake it a bit more at the end

#

or just strafe and recoil smooth for aimbot

harsh ivy
#

R99 does have the fastest fire rate

#

It’s not terrible

fair trellis
#

🐒 i just want to pull down and have my strafes do the rest of the work

harsh ivy
nova vine
#

yeah idk y

plush burrow
nova vine
#

i don't compesante for r301 recoil

#

so i cant hard beam

#

from far

#

close its fine tho

viscid wraith
#

apex barely has recoil in the first place, just learn the tame little pattern or abuse the multiple mechanics that break recoil

#

ie recoil smooth and jitter/shitter aiming

nova vine
#

Does it mean my movement is bad if like when i 1v1 (in ranked) i win but like im either just cracked or very low

viscid wraith
#

i cant call that off a description

#

you could be peeking too much, not using cover properly, or your enemy could just be beaming you

nova vine

why would he pick shit clips

viscid wraith

and why would he be counting up the players he does and doesnt one clip

ye the proportions are def off just look at your screen its square

little verge
#

Nah, it's just super long. We know you have monstrously long hands and more hand surface area = better aim. The secrets are out. Genetics win again.

YTa!!

#

You were going crasy!@ :D

#

ADHD meds and gfuel

#

:OWowies!

#

I never had Gfuel I really want to try it!

#

Try it first or honestly go with a flavor you know you’ll like

#

Or wing it

#

Ya!!

leaden delta
#

kids who cheat are cringe ong

smoky talon
#

Yes

sharp nova
#

gfuel is pointless

#

just take caffeine supplements if you want the same kind of benefit

#

cheaper too

#

or just drink tea/coffee

viscid wraith
#

Meh gfuels not that bad

#

There's certainly better alternatives tho

#

Still ends up being cheaper than energy drinks esp if you use coupon codes (there's literally always someone in the Fortnite twitch category with a 30-40% off code)

sharp nova
#

ye i mean if u just like the taste its fine

#

but if ur taking it for performance benefits, ur just overspending on what is basically just caffiene and cit-mal

viscid wraith
#

True

#

I originally started drinking gfuel cause I got tired of buying energy drinks and watch a lot of Jev

#

Technically I drink it for the performance aspect but ye it's not the most efficient

sharp nova
#

well

#

id argue worst thing about energy drinks is just the fucked sugar consumption that enables

#

caffiene is a great stimulant if u use it properly

viscid wraith
#

Oh for sure, I always bought sugar free cause holy crap they pack them full of it

sharp nova
#

but sugar has no real place among sedentary people in those quantities

#

ye sugarfree stuff is fine

#

(sometimes they use cringe sweeteners)

viscid wraith
#

Not a big fan of sweet tasting things anyway which generally helps me keep sugar consumption down

#

When I drank coffee I always preferred it black, I like the bitterness

alpine trail
#

Hallo!!: :D

harsh furnace
#

is gfuel just a caffeine drink

viscid wraith
#

It's essentially just a flavored caffeine mix brand

sharp nova
#

caff + cit-mal + taurine

#

then some other shit that nobody even cares about

#

standard energy drink stuff

#

caffiene is the only thing that really does much work

harsh furnace
#

tbh it's probably better to drink coffee + green tea

sharp nova
#

of course

#

but those require preparation and gamers r lazy

harsh furnace
#

true

sharp nova
#

though cold brew coffee is dope

#

and really lazy

harsh furnace
#

it's well-worth the effort tho

sharp nova
#

same with tea

viscid wraith
#

I work graveyards and have for years, mixes and drinks are so much more convenient

alpine trail
#

I got a tub for free

sharp nova
#

have u tried cold brew coffee b4?

alpine trail
#

Plus I can just use someone’s discount code as you said

sharp nova
#

its stupid easy

viscid wraith
#

Otherwise I'd just drink coffee in large quantities

alpine trail
#

I like the taste and coffee and tea isn’t my thing

viscid wraith
#

Preference thing

sharp nova
#

fair

alpine trail
#

Plus I’m ngl

#

I’m not gonna drink monster or Red Bull

#

Shit tastes nasty

viscid wraith
#

I drank sugar free rockstar no flavor for like 2 years lol

#

Just for the caffeine convenience

#

Looking back that shit tastes like gasoline lmao

sharp nova
#

energy drinks r just bad value so ive had like 4 in my life ever

viscid wraith
#

Not too bad when you just buy bulk at like Costco

#

But it varies by region

alpine trail
#

Honestly I’d rather use a powder thing like gfuel

#

Easier cleanup imo and don’t have to deal with cans/storage of them

viscid wraith
#

Gfuel spikes lesz

alpine trail
#

Yeah it feels more consistent ig

viscid wraith
#

Energy drinks often induce crashes imo

alpine trail
#

In terms of energy

#

Cause I remember having one one time

#

A Red Bull that is

#

Felt great until it didn’t

#

Gfuel feels like a slow decline

#

Which is better imo

#

Cause chances are you can just take a bit more of it

viscid wraith
#

Yep agreed

alpine trail
#

Cause like

#

I hit that clip

#

And I have a giant shaker

viscid wraith
#

Is why I swapped cause both costs and I was consuming far too much to not "crash"

alpine trail
#

And I only drank less then half of it

#

So yeah

#

Like how much is a standard tub of gfuel

honest heron
#

energy drinks are terrible value yeah but they taste awesome

#

if i wanted to optimise i would just take caffeine pills and L-theanine

viscid wraith
#

Once I get my irl shit sorted out and can get back Ina gym again honestly I'll prob just use a quality preworkout - lot of those have good caffeine content and will actually serve a purpose for me

#

Trick is tho with the majority of powders and mixes is there's a ton of brands that are just crap

#

Crap with sugar lol

deep linden
#

I was basically off of coffee or anything caffeinated other than Coke Zero for over three years because of shooting

viscid wraith
#

Yeah I'm addicted to caffeine lmao

#

Nothing to do with the actual drug effect per se I regularly take like a few days to make sure I'm not reliant on it but I just enjoy it

#

Used to crutch it a lot tho when my life was a bit more crazy

wintry cypress
#

Caffeine is insane lmao

#

Literally can make you not tired with 4 hours of sleep

#

Aka me yesterday

nova vine
#

Idk when I drink coffee or caffeine I can sleep through it lol

viscid wraith
#

Also ye me too I can usually sleep off caffeine if I need too just cause my body's so used to it by now

wintry cypress
#

Yea same

honest heron
#

my caffeine tolerance is pretty high rn

wintry cypress
#

I usually take caffeine before working out and i go to sleep like 3 or 4 hours later sometimes

honest heron
#

i need 400mg to feel buzzed

wintry cypress
#

And i can sleep just fine

honest heron
#

but i can get the desired effects from any amount

viscid wraith
#

I never consume enough to "feel it" anymore just like 150 mg when I get up and same when I go to work

honest heron
#

yeah same

viscid wraith
#

Otherwise my tolerance is stupid

honest heron
#

I just take what I need to stay alert during work

#

I was consuming 600mg a day at one point

viscid wraith
#

I fucked up my body in general tho it's hard for much to effect me

honest heron
#

i don't really get crashes from it either

viscid wraith
#

I remember one day I randomly ended up consuming upwards of 1200mg and I felt like someone shoved a power cord up my ass all day

smoky talon
#

💀

viscid wraith
#

Lit up like a fucking Christmas tree lmao

honest heron
#

yeah

#

i had 1200mg once too

#

didnt sleep for a few days

sharp nova
#

caff overdoes sucks

honest heron
#

makes u feel awful

#

never again

viscid wraith
#

I don't get that but

#

It's for other reasons

#

Doesn't make overdoing it anybetter for me just my body doesn't react too extremely to it

honest heron
#

major sleep deprivation is the worst i wouldnt recommend it

#

those audiovisual hallucinations do be hittin different

viscid wraith
#

Yeah I've done that a few times it ain't good

#

Brain feels like a fucking washing machine

#

I did 5 16s at a port doing loading during peak once and I wanted to fuckin die after a month of that shit

honest heron
#

yeah

#

12s make me wanna kms

#

i hate them

viscid wraith
#

12s I can handle

#

Just came off a positionf doing 4 12s

honest heron
#

i can "handle" them but i'd very much want to fucking not do them

viscid wraith
#

And now these 8s feel so short lmaooo

#

It's like I almost wish I had more time at work now which is funny

#

I get to end shift and I'm like wtf I thought I had more time lol

honest heron
#

idk I value my time more than money

#

So long shifts annoy me, I would rather be doing other things even tho I am getting paid big

viscid wraith
#

Same, is why I'm back on 8s

#

But I don't mind doing little stints of long shifts

honest heron
#

consistent 8s would be great

#

but my shifts vary a lot

viscid wraith
#

Did 12s for 4 months and was very done with it

honest heron
#

i did one 12 and was fucking over it

#

it's not worth it at all

viscid wraith
#

I do security work so the length of my shift is usually consistent but also varies depending on the contract - like I know how long the days gonna be, but some sites want waaaayyyy too long

honest heron
#

Oh well at least it's not physical

#

Just boring as hell i'd imagine

viscid wraith
#

16s during fire watch make me want to claw my eyes out

#

Ye it's nice to be away from physical labor now, did that shit for 4 years I'm plenty happy to be Ina career path now lol

honest heron
#

for sure

#

I'm in labour

#

so 12s are legit cancer

viscid wraith
#

Sometimes I do miss labor tho just cause sometimes being tired is satisfying - it makes no sense when you're working labor but after being away from it you feel it

honest heron
#

it's satisfying for a little while

#

then it gets old quick

viscid wraith
#

Yep

honest heron
#

big shmoney tho

#

pulled a g this week

viscid wraith
#

Ye I'm getting paid a good bit less now as entry level security

#

Especially during peak labor at least pays you good even if they run you down

#

My top is higher tho so it's worth it

#

Was my main thing with labor is that gets you nowhere unfortunately no matter how much they preach "internal promotion"

honest heron
#

depends on where you're at honestly

#

and the company you're in

viscid wraith
#

True

honest heron
#

my company had options, so I was able to be promoted

#

tho I still do the same shit, I just have extra responsibilities

viscid wraith
#

In general tho you're unlikely to make it past supervisor or regional unless there's a man shortage

honest heron
#

yeah definitely

viscid wraith
#

Also doing more for barely more money isn't worth imo

honest heron
#

at that point nepotism and networking play a bigger role

#

yeah

#

im not gonna become a supervisor

#

the stress is not worth it

viscid wraith
#

Like I had no interest in going salary when I'd have to be on call

#

Cause ew

#

Fuck that

honest heron
#

fug that

viscid wraith
#

Ye I'd get a bit more but the constant extra shit to deal with no thanks

honest heron
#

yeppp

#

i would much rather turn my brain off, do my job and go home

viscid wraith
#

Depends on where I'm working for me

#

Like rn I'm happy with my line of work cause it keep me engaged to some extent and shift goes by quick

lethal wraith
#

I quit caffeine

#

it makes your sleep worse, was one of the reasons

viscid wraith
#

I have insomnia already, caffeine unironically can help me sleep in small amounts lol

honest heron
#

caffeine only disrupts sleep for up to 6 hours after consumption

lethal wraith
#

isn't the half life of caffeine 7 hours?

#

half life being only half of what you consumed is out of your system

#

nvm it's apparently 5

#

but can last up to 9.5 hours

honest heron
#

the half life isn't really relevant, the effects begin to diminish only an hour after consumption

#

it peaks pretty quickly then tapers off

lethal wraith
#

effects yes, but it still affects your sleep

#

a lot of people will drink caffeine way after like 3pm

honest heron
#

yeah that's on them

lethal wraith
#

even then you probably shouldn't drink it after 10am most likely

#

depending on how much you drink it can still be in your system

honest heron
#

what

#

lmao

viscid wraith
#

I mean

#

I drink caffeine in two doses, one on wakeup and one when I go to work

#

I sleep pretty decent

honest heron
#

I have caffeine around midday all the time and i'm fine

#

only when i have it in the afternoon i don't sleep well

viscid wraith
#

I will say tho when my tolerance was lower it effected it

honest heron
#

my tolerance is also high as fuck

#

something to consider

viscid wraith
#

Nowadays I could have a cup of coffee and pass tf out

smoky talon
#

Same

lethal wraith
#

as long as you sleep fine it shouldn't really be that big of an issue pretty much

smoky talon
#

Yeah I can have caffeine then just go to sleep

lethal wraith
#

that might affect your sleep quality

#

if you mean actual sleep and not a nap

#

might be easier to wake up, because you don't wake up caffeine deprived lol

smoky talon
#

Haven't ever seen a noticeable difference from it

lethal wraith
#

that's good then

Looking for a master+ NA team to consistently play with next split. I soloed high ranks multiple times but looking to push pred. I am a wraith main but can flex into valk.

does anyone have a kovaaaks share code to a playlist that helps apex

honest heron
#

one of the best ones

viscid wraith
#

PureG apex is the gold standard tbh

#

Add some occasional focused work on the side and it's golden

honest heron
#

would also recommend training ur reactive tracking as well

#

that helped me a lot

viscid wraith
#

Torjes reactivity playlist great for that

you should be tracking the other person with it instead and timing your shots when you're on target

I went from 8119 to D1 like 20 away from masters lmao

but I don't really sweat arenas

#

just me running wingman every game, even though I suck at it

viscid wraith

i blue moz + bat first round but after that its always wing

#

just first round having that bat is too useful

lethal wraith
#

yeah that's true

#

I'm back to running mozam every round now though

#

I got clapped by that too many times

#

way more forgiving than wingman

#

way more damage unless you hit all headshots with wing

#

and you end up close range so often

viscid wraith
#

yep

#

moz is just a better wing so much of the time

lethal wraith
#

mozam sometimes isn't even enough against peeps with devotions too

#

arena meta is super cringe

viscid wraith
#

you can play around devo on some maps tho

#

not with randoms tho

#

if youre at least duo'd you can usually handle devo cucks

lethal wraith
#

I'm full soloQ so yeah

#

wingman vs devo no shot though

#

me that is, there's probably some crackheads that can do it

viscid wraith
#

you just have to play cover since a lot of people wont know how to control their trigger with it

lethal wraith

worst part is people lag so bad in arenas

90 fov

sick heath

Imma go back down to 104 maybe

sick heath
#

i was considering 106

#

so my ADS is the same as CS fov

#

(on 1x)

#

it also makes ur hipfire 120 which feels less shit than 125

oblique pulsar
#

I was wondering Iike

#

110 is max

#

Which is what most people use

#

Which implies that 110 is optimal or a higher fov is optimal

#

But like. Is that really the case

#

Like why not 100

sick heath
#

i think a lot of stuff like that is just the blind leading the blind

#

pros initially probably used 110 fov or whatever max fov is for the purpose of more info on edges of screen/because it looks like you're moving faster/etc.

oblique pulsar
#

Im going down to 104 again tomorrow to try it

sick heath
#

i was messing around w it in range and the most annoying thing was movement feels weird because your relative distance to objects is off a little bit

#

apex is so scuffed though 110 FOV on slider is actually 108.5 degrees horizontal on 4:3 which is 123.3 on 16:9 because it's based on source

indeed that's not how it works 103 fov ow is 90 apex basically

if I recall correctly that is

90 souce like 106 ow i think is closer

you just get rewarded much more with more kp

but instead respawn does this half and half crap

livid cliff
#

u get full teams just ratting till top 5 or sum shit

with no kp at all

but they get rewarded rp bc they are able to stay alive for so long without fighting

the funny thing is you literally cannot get high rp games without kp

livid cliff

doesnt matter

viscid wraith
#

people that can play too much will nickel and dime their way, but thats also an unfortunate reality of competitive BR games anyway

boreal owl
#

as much as i like to avoid useless fights in ranked i need to at least have the gear to take fights in top 5 to get like 3 kp at least

livid cliff
#

ur completely missing my whole point

#

lmao

lethal wraith
#

wouldn't the enemies need to have digis for this to make sense?

boreal owl
#

your point is that mfs will get to masters with a 0.12kdr

lethal wraith
#

not him?

boreal owl
#

wdym

livid cliff
#

no my point is that players are being rewarded for ratting and camping bc of how the rp system is

polar zephyr
#

what's the bang smoke bug?

lethal wraith
#

ratting and camping is rewarding because this is how every battle royale works

boreal owl
#

top 3 is still top 3 and should be rewarded accordingly

livid cliff
#

not when u have no kp and dont fight

boreal owl
#

it’s just not super rewarding and you want kp

viscid wraith
#

its not even vaguely difficult to get top 3 in an ability shooter

#

especially with crap like valk

livid cliff
#

go back to the old kp system

lethal wraith
#

the point of a br is to get #1

livid cliff
#

was much better than this bullshit

lethal wraith
#

not to get 20 kills and #5

polar zephyr
#

have you guys seen medina's tweet?

livid cliff
#

no-one is talking about 20 kills type shit

#

im talking about actually participating in the game and fighting

viscid wraith
livid cliff
#

not hiding lol

boreal owl
#

the ranked system will always have its flaws

#

but danvari is right

livid cliff
#

even more now than ever

#

bc of how they changed the system

boreal owl
#

the point of the game is ultimately to place high

#

and win

livid cliff
#

shouldnt be rewarded for not fighting

boreal owl
#

that’s not what it is tho

livid cliff
#

but it is

lethal wraith
#

they could make it so you need minimum 3kp to get +

#

maybe cept #1

livid cliff
#

they intentionally not fight and rat

#

going out of ur way to not fight and rat till top 3 is sad

boreal owl
#

you don’t get the fighting rewards but you get the placement rewards

#

apex is a balance of knowing when to play safe and when to play aggro and when you play safe all the time you lose on kp gains

livid cliff
#

playing safe and ratting the whole game is completely different

#

you're able to play safe without ratting

#

idc what anyone says

boreal owl
#

the thing is if someone rats to top 3 10 games in a row the ranked system sees that as 10 top 3 placements rather than “omg he killed nobody!!!”

viscid wraith
#

imo higher rank just needs a higher entry cost to where placement isnt the only way to climb, but there should also be a really steep curve for how placement effects KP points so you truly want that top 2 - right now its too easy to just get 1 or 2 assists and afk to top 5 for really good progress

livid cliff
#

go back to old kp system and there wont be so many master players

viscid wraith
#

old ranked system in general i think was better for the game, but people will spend more money if they think theyre good at the game so this isnt going anywhere reg

livid cliff
#

it is for me

#

im letting off steam

viscid wraith
#

lol

livid cliff
#

for this dog rank system

boreal owl
#

the current kill bonus system is good but if they altered the placement vs kp rp buff the ranked system will be better

alpine trail
boreal owl
#

currently max kp is 125 but you get a bonus for how high you place

livid cliff
#

no it isnt good at all

#

lower kp and up placement

#

increases rats

boreal owl
#

thats what im saying dawg

livid cliff
#

ah okay

#

mb

boreal owl
#

keep the kp bonus system but make placement worth less and kp worth more

viscid wraith
#

placement itself needs to be worth less, but placement needs to increase kp points substantially

#

you should want a combo to get your best amount of points, not be capable of doing well with one or the other

boreal owl
#

exactly

#

thats what this system tries to do but emphasizes placement too much

#

like how max kp lowers the higher you place

#

bc kp value increases the higher you place

#

so placement is still quite valuable but equally isn’t heavily relied on

Hey all, any wingman demons have tips for hitting your shots in close-medium range fights with lots of strafing? I can do pretty well when I have a 301 or car/r99, but as soon as I get a wingman it all goes downhill (especially with ironsights)

alpine trail
# late lion Hey all, any wingman demons have tips for hitting your shots in close-medium ran...

1). Try not to spam fire, relax, time them right and aim.
2). practice strafe aiming click timing with an aim trainer.
3). if you're really close you dont have to ads.
4). buy the raygun skins on the wingman.
5). if you change your recticle colors, you can make it the circle ironsights go away.
6). Play arenas or 1v1s for more practice using wingman
7). mid to long range fights try to peridict where they're going to strafe unless they're standing still

late lion
#

Really nice answer. I cannot wait for control to come back. The click timing strafe scenarios are a good thing to do that I really have not. I am in the firing range now and will try to find the right colour.

alpine trail
#

doyou guys random strafe to be just as hard as u can to hit

#

or do u have a specific strafe

#

mirroring, anti mirroring

#

whatever

#

just dont be predictable

late lion
#

I have done 1v1's with friends and matching their strafe seems to work best

alpine trail
#

add some jumps, crouches

late lion
#

crouching just makes me get headshot but I still do it

#

I have also tried focusing on different areas; crosshair / player

#

and tried different sens. so far an ads of 60cm has the most consistency.
ras strafes sometimes work but it throws of my aim a lot

alpine trail
#

60cm

#

im normally on 28

#

lol

late lion
#

yeah. tried aceus 1.8@800, ras's 1@1200 w/ 0.7 ads

#

28 is so fast

alpine trail
#

o just the ads

#

or overall sens

late lion
#

I'm using 0.7@1200 w/ 0.7ads

#

nvm I just checked things an I am 94cm/360 1x ads and 49cm/360 hipfire

that is pretty high

same ads as hal
