points based on certain ranks per scenario
yea
haha
i think most of the scores
are his first time on them
months ago
has the biggest variance
does he still play kovaaks
out of anyone
4 plats 5 gm
sometimes i think
i wonder how many points
florence would get
if he finished all the scenarios
prob above masaato
also im sorry if this feels like im demoting people
its not
im just ranking ppl up from 0 in a new rating
It forces you to expand your aiming skills on the other hand if you play other games no one wants to grind meaningless scenarios for benchmarks
just to get the required scores
it just shows ur flaws
like u see a lot of gm's
like lorys for instance
currently 6th
but he has like
3 plat scores
which are obvious flaws, if he works on them
not only he'll get a much better score
he'll also improve as an aimer
cause he's working on his flaws
I mean obviously if you get better at everything you are gonna improve your overall skills
and shows how good someone like aimer is
but the plat scores are probably one try or something because i don't see Lorys having
such shitty runs when his popcorn is so good
and obviously scenarios differ but
or yu, but everyone knows about yu
but aimer doesnt have a single diamond score
besides yu, he's the only person that doesnt
even florence does
yu is not even human lol
yuman
i mean, Lory has 2 plat scores on the 2 stationary tapping scenes
most people are worse at those than the moving tapping scenes
dont think its that far of a reach

Gl
Is there bloom in this game lul
Just play fortnite
might as well have some fun unique mechanics
not in hardcore tho
One day we will all look back and think about his much time we put on kovaaks

@round plover Diamond ๐

Poldora Grandmaster III when?
end of next decade
@molten pivot my masters goal be like ๐
lmao u got this
I have it installed
I just get bored so quickly and go watch anime to cure my boredom lmao
If I knew Japanese I would
Since I could listen to it
But I can't read subtitles and read a kovaaks bots movements
Aren't their English versions called dub?
I don't personally watch anime so I could easily be wrong but I have a couple friends that do
Do you not watch dub?
I'm not sure if there is a dubbed version of what I'm watching and I prefer subs
Makes sense
@azure quiver loves ql
Bellend
quick question, would quake like help improve aim?
quake helps with movement and general aiming
thanks
Quake is a boomer game
good game
Boomer game
omg it feels so nice seeing progress
im currently going toe to toe in scrims with some of the people ive admired for a while
o:
hi drater !!!! 




whats a good accuracy on quake live?
good aim is always hitting the necessary shots
ok nice thanks

Congrats

man i should just suck it up and play kovaaks
get master stay at master skill level
nah
get master
then
go gm
then master II
then GM II
^
lol
I've had no passion to grind it feels like a chore naturally got plat n haven't tried to grind for anything higher kinda blows
There is no passion in grinding
Practice isnโt fun most of the times
Just click the circles and get a high score then itโs fun
Seeing yourself improve is fun as well
@maiden hill pog
Wait is new kovaaks update dogshit?
i love grinding
I think its good
game feels a lot better if you ignore the new part and find the work around for bugs you run into
so far every bug ive hit theres a fairly easy work around
but then again I think im the only one who actually likes it LOL
resets your res if u play below 1920, resets keybinds, colours are fucked, have to bring across scen folder and all cunstom crosshairs and sounds
no initial option to opt in or opt out for new update
people not creating accounts because of epic side of things
yes, of course you have to bring over your saved stuff, its literally a new game. They didn't 'update' the original, it's a whole new thing
and they dont to have to sign up for the only fortnite and overwatch system
yeah mine are cooked
How so, might be a bug you can fix
its just lots of things that make it annoying
nope ive gone through everything in the post made by kovaak himself about bugs and work arounds
weird, my game looks better than before
ive changed no settings but my deep purple colour is now a beyond eye cancer bright pink and its aids to look at and the only way i can change it back to being a darker purple is to change my enemy fullbright option which then gets to a point where i can barely see the bots
probs looks better cause they reset every single video option also
update is fine for those who want it
but the launch has been handled terribly
idk personally I think most everyone is freaking out for no reason
mainly because of the login bug and the new gamemode not being that great/not catered towards people who have played kovaaks for longer than 10 hours
its not for no reason a lot of people just dont want it and theres countless needlessly annoying bugs and problems that have come with
its totally killed my mood to even play rn
i sweat to god every game i play just gets ruined in one way or another
maybe its because im used to actual dog shit games ran by dog shit companies constantly giving dog shit updates
that I see this as not that bad because the game is still here, and runs better than beofre besides one or two bugs
I actually like the new updated sandbox mode a lot
every other game I played that got updates had NO redeeming features, so it was all dog shit
this update? literally fix a few bugs and its better than 1.0
idk I gained about 50 frames
games ive "mained" since i started getting heavily into shooters around 2015 ive played cs, fortnite, bo4 and apex
GG @hollow violet, you just advanced to level 13 !
each and every one of them has just been killed off by devs
lol those games are fine
im so fucking over morons getting money thrown at them and they do nothing with it
all dead
every single one
if you think thats killing off by devs then man lucky you didnt play some of the shit i did haha
explain then
imagine apex updates but every patch reduces fps by 20, adds lag stutter, literally all useless content and cash grabs, and half the events are broken
:)
you can literally spam whatever u want in the fortnite/ow thing when registering
it doesnt matter
this meta kovaaks thing lul
btw, this is a whole new game
not even an update
so yeah, its gonna be buggier than just an update
cause apex has no playerbase in oce, bo4 just became pay to win, cs has a terrible cheater problem and continual useless updates, and fortnite devs have the worst mindset to adding new items, never listening to their community, and just downright dogshit updates as well
you can literally get past cheaters in cs by playing faceit
most games dont have an oce playerbase
which is free
what solo said
I don't even need to read this conversation to know what warden is saying
faceit is also full of autistic silvers
WELL XD
Fornite is literally a game for children what do you expect
cant get everything can you
every good game that I know of/series has been ruined with time
these devs are listening to people that make the most noise
you have to push through dog shit when u main a game
content players don't make noise, the camper who wants to put his legs up and not die to sweats does
go play better and get a higher faceit level
idk I dont think any of those games have really been ruined (cant speak for bo4 tho)
GG @neat anchor, you just advanced to level 17 !
@neat anchor may be directed towards children but that doesnt excuse devs for quite obvious stupid decisions
Apex is fine besides balancing is sometimes wonky it seems, CS:GO is how it's always been, and Fortnite is going in the direction that it's always been
have u played apex at all recently
I think the devs main stupid decision was not choosing between children or comp scene, they attempt both and thats impossible
not super recently, but I follow stuff on it
Warden no offence bro you might be just too old for that shit
Imagine crying about setting up new settings
which takes roughly
so u dont know the state of the game from actually playing it then
10 seconds
its fucking horrendous
also god forbid kovaaks trying to make some more money from fortnite and overwatch players instead of focusing on aim purist
cmon bruh
^
I wouldnt say you can't know the state of a game without playing it
idgaf about the new meta update
What do you care about then
im talking about the effect it has had on the 1.0 side of things
Either way, all I'm saying is this update to Kovaaks isnt dog shit. It's fine, it's a whole new game with lots of improvements to sandbox with a few bugs along with it
Yeah so there is a game release
and there are bugs
wow
imagine
It's kind of groundbreaking
because its something i enjoy and when something i enjoy gets fucked up in some way ofc imma voice my opinions
nope
move your scenario files
and also your deep purple color is pink now
what a tragedy
also Warden
take your own advice
and don't talk shit about Fortnite because
clearly you don't know what is hapenning in the game atm
past few seasons I would agree but this season is the least cluttered item meta that I've ever seen
so yeah
dont care devs ruined the game for me long ago thats the point i was putting across and i said what i said to shy because ive been playing apex at a professional level for the past 8 months so i take a valued opinion on apex moreso over any other game atm
kind of odd to state that people shouldnt talk about games they dont play then o_O
^
I would also like to point out that because of this update, in the future Kovaak and the team can make bigger improvements on the game
Idc about apex, just wondering how kovaaks is ruined for you
Specifically the one they wanted was bringing scenarios off of steam, so that way we don't hit our max and can more easily cache and search for them
But, because its a totally rebuilt game, now the whole team is on the same page
where as before only Kovaak really knew what was going on with the game
Also login things might be a good way for sparky to create leaderboard outside of
Kovaaks because of api but Iโm too dumb to know for sure
jesus this chat is tilting af
@winter locust ive always hated change and when change brings inconveniences and annoyances it fucks me off especially when i have my whole way of things the way i like
I see
Thatโs a mentality problem not kovaaks problem I guess
There are some issues with the launch and it couldโve been handled better
but itโs a step in the right direction imo
the new update is the reason to it tho thats why im annoyed
opt in
opt out
options for everyone prior to update
and there would not be a single problem for those who opted out
or maybe a more indepth showcase to the update before dropping it on everyone
Im the same way Warden, but honestly thats why I like the update
I feel they barely changed anything with the original game, which is great
Itโs a new game tho so they canโt really do the opt in thing and from what I gathered there is a way to get into sandbox mode which is basically the old kovaaks yes?
just bugs that will get fixed soon
yeah u can get into the sand box thing but when theres the annoying little things i have to go out of my way to fix and then my colours are still screwed it turns me off, i just want to hop in and go
i make the point of my colours because its legit like looking at the sun now that theyve changed
that color issue idk, I havent had any color issues besides shaders going wonky with black sky, which is pretty easily fixed on launch
so I cant help ya there
Yeah I feel you on that but the main mode which is sandbox isn't affected which is great for the og players because we can just vibe in sandbox and other things are here to bring in new players so kovaaks can get the bread
it's like really simple
Old kovaaks wasn't going to bring any new players because everyone who wanted to get it already did
and u have to pay the bills so it is what it is
ik where kovaak is coming from and the direction he wants to take for bringing in newer players and such i just feel the update could have been handled very differently
Hows the game now
each to their own
few tiny bugs, thats it
on new stuff
Yeah I understand Warden but if they make a new game right
I don't think there is a way for you to opt in to download the update
Did they name the categories flicking and scoping?
yes
Smfh
Well sandbox should be same as we had anyway
I suppose the meta is closer to aim lab
God bless ins with sane opinions
How dare he sell our info to russian spyware
The acc is for future purposed with scoreboards I believe
I mean
Why are people having problems with signing up
for a fuckin game
like u signed up for discord
@winter locust heaps of ways to do it, steam legit has an option in game properties to opt into beta updates, release the new meta update as a beta and when people enable the opt in they will see that there is an update for the new shit and if they dont like they can easily revert back
which doesn't give a damn about your privacy and here we are talking about the circle clicking aim improving simulator
forcing u to make an acc
cmon
Isnt it through steam though
no
Its not in steam?
its specifically not through steam so they can update leaderboards later iirc
yeah
Uh wth
you know how kovaak was talking about steam having a limit to scenarios or some shit
So its free now?
It's not ins
No
Download the update and u are chilling
make an account in game which is gonna be used for some leaderboard stuff from what we know right now
also if there is an api there is a chance some smart ppl could have an access to api which would make leaderboards for sparky and other stuff
ez af to make
Just people complaining because change is bad apparently
the main mode isn't even affected except color complaints that Warden had which is a fair point I guess
is the sens scale suppose to be different?
No surprise there
Just make one with fake info like
idk
also your settings are gonna reset ins
like I don't really get why ppl are being so triggered over this patch
like literally sandbox is untouched
there are 2 cons except the bugs that are probably gonna get fixed
it's not the point rby
color changes and account requirement
I can't be assed tbh, if you don't get why this is bad, no point discussing
glad you enjoy this piece of trash aim lab knockoff direction the meta wanted to take
ask anyone?
lul
Sandbox left untouched
New mode so fn and ow kids can get lured into
making it a more profitable venture
such a bad decision
there are a 100 better ways to attract forntite, ow etc. than what they did
focus should have been sandbox
not an aim lab knockoff with terrible training
I would love to listen about the 100 ways of attracting players
because outside of the old ppl who did aim training
there are no new players in the scene
except the crowd from Aimer and Kahtaz
literally everyone else was playing kovaaks before
and still the influx of players from aim training in fortnite isn't that big compared to what the new patch is gonna bring
adding an introduction screen for new players asking them what game they play, and then recommending a scenario playlist/folder made by top players
and focusing on improving the abilities of the scenario editor to make it easier for players to build scenarios for these games
sry I'm playing games so alt tabbed halfway through typing
You are chilling
Yeah that's a fair point
I never made a scenario so I can't talk about the difficulties of scenario creating but the first point is smart
still the changes are here to attract new players and sell more copies, let's just hope that more stuff gets added
sandbox is still here so imo people are overreacting pretty hard
I don't think anyone here wants the game to do poorly
obviously we care about kovaak and anyone else making the game, if they make a profit that means more effort into development
except right now the efforts are sorely misguided and amateurish
Maybe it looks like that but they have the numbers if the patch doesn't bring in a lot of new players then they are probably gonna change the direction of improving the game
or changing the game if you don't want to call it improvement
Don't get me wrong
I'm not hyping up the update but literally imo
yeah im not hyping the update either
nothing changed from yesterday
im literally ignoring the new mode
You can get on and do the aim training or grind for highscore
sandbox is just technically a better version than 1.0 rn as long as they fix the few minor bugs
today like you could do yesterday
also the current scenarios that we have are literally all that you need for Fortnite except the in game training
unless there is a way to introduce
char model and the exact fov and everything u have in fortnite into kovaaks
What happened to kovaaks
meta
@neon mountain click sandbox on main menu
lol so 1.8 is still able to access the workshop + steam thinks you're in 2.0
@round kindle ty
@round kindle I agree
wish they focused on sandbox mode only
The thing they added with the meta is a completely different game, something most dedicated players didn't really care about
I think they can make an update to make things right
Make the Meta free additional DLC, so people can opt out
Focus on the main sandbox
UI and UX overhaul
Dashboard
etc
Post feedback that we've provided in #572106911261130784
@worn notch will we be adding a reach channel?
@round kindle @hollow violet I take everything I said this morning back
The game is in fuckin shambles
Literally worse update than mech update in Fortnite
Haha I was hoping to do some aim training before the fn cup today
I guess not
sike
if you can make into the sandbox you might be able to
I barely made it past the acount creation
broken for so many people (myself included)
then the game crashed 3 times
lmfao
I gave up
Yeah I might do it
or just take a nap and hope I wake up to a better word
where aim trainer is what it used to be
not some fuckin roblox on steroids
with game crashing every second
also how come sky color is fucked in "sandbox"
hey how do i revert to old kovaaks?
GG @eager grove, you just advanced to level 1 !
oh it was a few messages above and i didnt realise lol
trying to get more concrete feedback
got told by The Meta that "ui/ux is subjective" but who likes the look of mobile games on a pc display lmao
when you downgrade the game to 1.0 do the scores still count?
Yes, at least it did for me
someone can explain me what happened with kovaaks? I was playing at this yesterday and no problem

It's nice to see he is actively working to improve at leas
"We wonโt sell your info."
Kappa
What happened to kovaaks lmfao
The restart keybind wont even work
this update is SO FUCKING TRASH
im so mad rn
AND trying to change keybinds isnt working
kovaaks discord - feedback chan
ight
Could I get an invite to the sparky aim group? Here's my steam: https://steamcommunity.com/id/TactzBacon/
You have to request to join
It was denied, I can't send another.
bruh, I leave for 5 fucking days and all hell breaks loose with Kovvacks... wtf is going on?
@desert hawk Some peoples games are bugged
GG @round kindle, you just advanced to level 7 !
if yours is fine you click sandbox and its the same
just have to change ur settings back
Yeah, I see; for some reason I cannot find the setting to disable my gun model.
nvm
found it
im blind
its all good
For me nothing is bugged everything works the same
changed all my settings back
nothing really changed for me lmao
My ring finger is soo awkward gripping my mouse, its either I put my middle finger on scroll wheel and ring one right mouse button, or none on scroll wheel and middle finger on right mouse button.
Anyone have any monitor recommendations? $300 and lower. It will be used as my main monitor
this is what im lookin at rn
https://zowie.benq.com/en-us/product/monitor/xl/xl2411p.html This is what I'm usin' rn. Had it for about a year and it's been pretty good.
@opal crescent go for zowie 144 hz or 240hz if can
found a monitor
I was originally planning for the BenQ ZOWIE XL2430
but this seems better in every way
The P version is 100 dollars cheaper than the one linked but 240hz
so
Seeing that it's alienware I usually tend to stray away from their products but if you want, go for it.
I hate alienware/dell
I'd still go for zowie any day.
old kovaaks uwu
Huh
hi , any keyboard recommandation ? i'm actually on an old Razer deathstalker 2014 , wanna go for Corsair K70 MX red , sound like a good choice ?
I recommend at this day in age
but a razer huntsman or apex pro
every other keyboard just doesnt really make sense to buy anymore imo
Well no
we have varmilo and hhkb and alot of other high end brands for same price thats alot better with better pcbs, switches and keycaps than razer ones
ofc custom will always outperform prebuilts
They dont have better switches what
Switches is the only thing that matters and thats where apex pro and razer huntsman are just better
Yes
ok thanks for all those answer i gonna check !
Well
Unless you are using
0.4mm
Actuation
There shouldnt be a major difference
1/100000 chance it will be impactful
@round kindle Diamond ๐
@pearl hatch Diamond ๐
++
@tidal flare Diamond ๐ !
Triple whammy.
Y'all are nuts.
Congrats all
Gotta move quick.
idk yet
if you use a keyboard like i do a razer will only last like a week or two
theyre made so cheap, the higher actuation point just makes things less intuitive to time down to the frame
speed isnt everything
iif you want speed you can always pre-press the key, leave it hovered over the actuation point
i do like 40-50 nps in rhythm games
But thats not relevant since if people need a keyboard they can slam they would say that
But you'd kinda need to say that you smash your keyboard otherwise its just misleading
If fortnite players can use it and not break, any other players can aswell
wtf
Thats not how it works
"and i slam my keys hard to time better"
like 15 percent pushing activates the key
for my switches anyways
ye im not really sure what he means tbh
i only hit them hard in rhythm games, and it is a common for people to hit hard to maintain accuracy
people also get heavier switches
its a diifferent world
when you need to time 2000+ keys with +/- 16ms of precision
i think my point got lost
nymachy said theres no reason for anything else, im just pointing out my reason for neading something else
I was refering to regular games
we literally have an osu channel
Ye but i thought osu was only mouse lmao
and i dont think id consider osu a "regular game" either tbh
na they click with kb and aim with mouse
oh maybe thats why im noodles at osu
i dont think they offer heavy variants of those optical switches do they
one pro of heavy keys is they bounce back faster, allowing you to spam faster if you have the stamina
I dont think so no
But having such a requirement for your keyboard is so specific
but if your game is fn, league, rs6, csgo, dota whatever the fuck
but thats a concern in both rhythm games and fighting games
i think speed is better
i mean, its good, but its barely faster and theres otehr stuff i need
its like arguing over 240 and 250hz
oh also if speed is your main concern
nkro over usb has more input lag then ps/2
swapping to a ps/2 kb will save you a good 5 ms, while those optic switches barely save a single ms
@hearty river wager me skribbl.io


how can I change my in-game name in Kovaak
like I want to add sA prefix
oh, though there was an option in game
someone from eu to play pvps or something? (Fortnite)
I've reached a plateau and it has become quite frustrating not improving at all
any advice?
take a break
I took like a 2 day break and it didnโt do much. Maybe a longer break would help?
take a week off
๐ณ๐ณ Thatโs a long time but if you insist
enjoy life brother
^^ yeah , as tony said
enjoy life , maybe read something , like Sweet Home
@drowsy turtle cough cough
@barren fable You're not improving, but are you getting constantly stuck at your highscores? If so, then you're being more consistent, which is good. That's way more important than pushing your lucky one off runs.
Also you can't train a muscle the same way every day and expect it to always grow stronger. You have to change it up and use varying methods of exercise. Same goes for gaming.
finally got my model o- back after it broke 3 weeks ago
zzzzz
it feels sooo light again after using the g305 as replacement
nice
@grave cedar I know its a late reply
but thats exactly what I did lmao
my cable broke and I used my g305 while waiting for new cable
mine just got repaired because i bought it from a dutch store
i got a new mouse
instead of a cable ๐
Glorious kinda screwed all of their customers xd
is training on a higher sens to get good mouse control effective?
im on a hati
dude i fucking hurt my wrist at a concert
and i cant grind for a few days
i hate it
that's why i don't go outside 
this is why I cut off my wrists


WEIRD CUNT
I still can't type
Arm memeing.
D:
Nobody doesn't aim with their wrist.
^
what if i dont have a wrist 
Pog
i can aim
it only hurts vertical motion
not horizontal
also i play mostly arm anyways

There is no scenario that I see that I can't wrap my head around and understand how that is physically possible..... Except 1wall6targets small. I cannot fathom how people play that scenario. I just do not understand how people can get so far above 1100. I try it and it just physically does not compute with me.
No other scenario. I can be impressed, but nothing surprises me. Except 1w6ts.
It's just not in my genetic code.
why do you type like such a fucking boomer
Same Toast, been playing 1w6ts for some time regularly and i cant get past 1100. I'm starting to wonder if this scenario isnt just mean to be grinded to have a great score
and if it is relevant in bench
the two 1w6t are the scenarios people seem to be the worst on
ss of ins power ranks of all tapping scores
then I should maybe not do 1w6ts for my diamond. I am stuck at 1030 
i find that very surprising
maybe it's because one can leverage reading skills in the scenarios with moving targets
also few good players actually play normal 1w6t because it's not a great scenario for clicktiming training
aimer7 could easily beat his score for example based on his jumbo 1w6t score
Does anyone have any tips on aiming more quickly while retaining accuracy? I get kinda panicked when I try to go quicker and it annihilates my accuracy.
dont focus on aiming more quickly ,
try to be more accurate while also being fast between flicks
and that quickness will come
well on pasu for example, my score is 97.5 and i have the highest accuracy at 86% out of basically everyone within the with 90-100 range
so i just need to speed up
highest ive seen is 88%
most are 75%
but if i speed up my score is generally 85 and i tense up and micro adjust over and over
area has 94 with like 115 score
ur playing for acc whoring rather than speed
you shoud always aim for speed
speed is the only way to actually improve
On what
hes talking about pasu
yea i think practicing on pasu reload is better
hitting consistent 80/85+ acc will come within time
i mean i dont think im accu whoring. im just trying to make sure i hit the target. its small and moving fast. sometimes in a series of whiffs i will sorta slow down and try to get back into rythm
but i get shaky the faster i got is the issue
Does anyone know if progressive overload works in aiming? It worked for me when I tried it but it may be just in my head. If anyone has opinions on it, let me know ๐
Want to create a really good routine for improvement, I use progressive overload in the gym aswell but I don't know if it works for aiming aswell.
im sad af
me:(

@maiden axle Since when is capitalizing one letter and adding one symbol at the end of a sentence a bOoMeR thing to do? Did you go to school for 12 years and learn English? Zoomers, man.... I swear.

Is it better practicing with a dot .4 rather than a normal crosshair same size?
I can't hear you over the sound of the Mechs and the devs ignoring the Esports scene.
Damn this man is stuck in the previous season

@marsh rain ๐ธ Skill

1v1LG would be good, low barrier of entry and fits in with the kovaaks background. Prize should be something token like bragging rights or a little bit of merch maybe
just make it a no big deal thing.. free entry, match points of 10, EU, random seeding, single elimination bracket (maybe bo3 final)
do it on a google docs so people can find their opponents and line up matches, keep it moving quickly by forfeiting afks, should be trivial
if it works, then you have a rough seeded order for the next one you run
consider if you want to make it open to everyone or just sparkys etc
absolutely trivial to set up, yeh
Then we could put the best moments cut out on youtube
if i was EU i'd be down, probs bomb out early but i might get to paste some scrub like hamster first
being spec'd on stream is stressful keep in mind, if you want to attract a larger casual pool
haha ye would be limited to few regions
yeh i implore you, ping limits are non negotiable
high ping LG duel in QL isn't very valid or fun
Yeah for sure
I think EU, US and SA are most present but SA are mostly fortnite players
They don't talk much here either but they're present
EU US tho
EU only to start, if americans get interested then do one there too
OCE actually has a sorta LG dueling clique i think
OCE is cool
isnโt quake pretty big in oce
they are small but they are much more vocal
fuck playing vs them tho
apa, ryan, qhat, ultra, stral etc
they actually pracced it
i proudly screenshot getting 10-2 by apa
@marsh rain another skill let's go! 
Hi peopke

If you're already apart of Sparky Aim then you get your upgrades announced here. Less likely to be drowned by general.
More 'significant' people can see your accomplishment.
Damn :/
Hola
But in general u flex to more ppl
yo say you have an hour routine
would it be bad to split it into like 4 play sessions?
instead of just doing the whole 1 hour routine for an hour
I never really suffered through a burnout, but prob bcuz I'm constantly motivated by the better people around me and my constant will to surpass them
@round kindle It'd be better to split it.
really?
Optimal practice methods are in short blocks with rests in between.
As with any exercise, studying, or skill learning.
how long should the rest in between be though?
There are plenty of studies out there that you can read. Off the top of my head I'd suggest 30min? Probably no less than the time you spent practicing.
Don't quote me.
But if you're doing 15min segments. Probably 15min breaks inbetween would do you fine.
Do some other research on it. I haven't tested it enough myself to find objective results.
Alright I will thank you
Imo the best way to prevent burn out
for me at least, is to just play whenever I feel like it
I never force myself to do anything, so that helps a lot with burnout
True
@drowsy turtle hey tony please read sweet home

clearly drinking chlorine is the answer
@zenith jasper above 165 which is 10% above 150 which is standard gaymer vrt
certified ๐ง ๐ด ๐ด ๐ฒ ๐ช ๐ท
That's a question for me as well
Lol I avg 150 sometimes 130 but I'm still not diamond
lul have 190-170 :(
GG @neon mountain, you just advanced to level 12 !
@round kindle I used to play cricket professionally
So my reactions were really good
I avg 150 now
@zenith jasper 165 and i just havent sent in score, going straight for master
ah i see
went curious , do you guys play all finger or claw grip ? i play Palm grip and i dunno if i getting malus on my aim or doesn't matter ?
most good aimers use claw/fingertip afaik
its whatever suits
certain grips can provide different benefits for different areas of aiming
25.9cm/rev Apex legends Wingman PK player , you think any of this grip will benefit me at anything ?
dont think anybody uses palm tho
i'm 8month fps player i didn't thinking about change it , was normal for me
claw hurts my fingers
I dont know any of the great aimers that uses palm (correct me if you know of any)
like not a single one
wellll , do you have maybe a video about how to change , i don't know a shit about lul
thanks !
np
so i tryed and tbh i feel the most confortable with fingertip grip , is that a deadly combo with sens like 25cm ?
have a gpro wireless as mouse
I was a palm player
I switched to claw and went from 500 in vertical long to 98 in 2nd try
Claw or fingertip helps most in vertical
So I see no reason not to switch from palm to claw, it helps more in vertical
ok thanks
If you use palm grip you are limiting yourself
using fingertip actually and yeah even if i don't have habit on it that goddamn confortable actually
compared to my palm , i feel more control
and yeah i was dogshit on vertical , probably one factor was because palm but i still need train anyways ! it helping me abit feels more confortable in general
@round kindle do you mind taking a picture of that grip?
Yeah when I get home from school
@worn notch where could I post clips that could be evaluated by higher ranks for feedback
@round kindle sounds good
Sini do you recommend that the clip should be only one scenario and how long
@tall oasis im pretty sure hud uses the same grip but my wrist just sits on the mouse pad with my fingertips on the side my palm doesnt touch the mouse at all and then my mouse button firngers are at a claw shape
the consistancy i have on pasu track angers me
Ahhh okay thanks mate!
I try not to rest my wrist on the bad too much
It's quite helpful with target switching
But I may plant it at times where serious smoothness is needed
what cm/360 are you using?
Otherwise my ring and pinky are straight, with a bent thumb on the other side, and both index and middle slightly arched, both close to the middle click of the mouse
Also for some reason my arm forms an angle with my ulna
24.7, iirc
8 DPI 7 OW
800* hahaha
dang idk how you don't rest your wrist with that sens i used to play 109cm/360 and i would still rest my wrist when was doing TS
I mean I have so much mobility with it off the pad
Feels so free
Watching yu play anything with target switching, no way his wrist is on the pad
So I realised maybe it's normal for me to not be resting it
Ultimately you have to try to know what's ideal
So I don't fuss over it too much
imo grip style is preferance i dont see one better than another
For sure, except maybe palm, but I can't speak for sure
uwu
Ew why are compression sleeves so expensive
idk just make 1
put a sock in it
Sock feels bad
@keen patrol there are some compression socks for runners, I'm sure you might be able to cut them out to fit your arm. at least a big part of it.
@keen patrol theyre legit like 10 bucks bruh
Artisan Hien still out of stock ๐
Ah yeah, but I want soft and red 
I just ended up buying a hyperx pad cause I can only reliably get things off amazon rn
GG @winter fossil, you just advanced to level 5 !
Someone tell me what mouse to buy currently on gpw but it has double click problem
If you liked the GPW shape you could try the hati
UL2 is the best mouse I've ever used, personally. Not for everyone though.
Well I'd only sell it for that much because I'm saving one for a backup / custom mod, ahaha
Soz. ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
Nope.
I used to on the outer side in order to get used to the size, but I took them off.
Surprisingly it is.
Cheapest I found in my country were 20
