[thorny peak]

Muscle memory for aiming is a fad. A player with good mouse control will be able to change their sensitivity and mouse without any significant problems, so long as they don't go into extremes. There can be a noticeable difference, but that's not related to memory, but more related to comfort and preference.

@civic kettle only good thing about lockdown is the kvk grind

[civic kettle]

you know it man ahaha

[green token]

how will it be checked if the applier is not lowering fov? (for gm application)

just by looking at the clip?

[viscid laurel]

The scenario it self locks the fov

[gentle quail]

not all of them

[viscid laurel]

Like if you go load up thin gauntlet v2 with 60 ow, it'll just default the 103 once the challenge starts

[gentle quail]

just popcorn and thin gauntlet

[viscid laurel]

and 1w6ts I'm pretty sure, popcorn sparky as well

unless you meant both popcorns

[gentle quail]

i meant both

[rare socket]

And pasu track. But yeah it will be quite obvious when someone will use 80fov

[green token]

Yeah in fact I was talking about 95 fov or stuff like that, that's not so obvious like you have to pay attention

But 95 ow should be ADS sens, right?

how does the mvp thing work?

basically

submit clip at end of month

clip gets added into this poll thinbg

people vote on their favorite clip

winner gets the role

(there is no bias when voting, the best clip simply wins)

[manic peak]

do you just post the clip in #mvp ?

would make sense

how did you feel about the KPU after using g203 normally? @round kindle

did you find it better for you? or just different and you prefer either mouse on different days?

yes

neutral is more in line with my opinion

[gentle quail]

Damn sini removed my reaction

[manic peak]

it can sound kinda cringe "sparky aim", but i don't think it's necessarily bad

[spark tulip]

Well its suppose to be just Sparky

Not Sparky Aim

[gentle quail]

i mean tbf

I think anything that ends with "Aim" is kinda cringe

i think yuki

sounded better than sparky

[tulip mantle]

it's a fitting name for the colorful/ happy aesthetic you seem to go for

there may be better or equal names out there, but i dont think we should bother looking for one.

Well, we'll probably ask a lot of opinions.

I have no issue with "Sparky" and how we've handled it thus far, but I think we could really push it to another brand-potential.

[worn notch]

I don't want to bother the white names

@velvet wing not a magazine cuz you need an editor and other stuff to be registered

but i meant a website were people can upload reviews/articles/resource editorials about stuff

[velvet wing]

It would be cool but a lot of work

[sharp depot]

But what's up with the poll anyways? Is there doubts about sparky being a good name? @worn notch

I kinda agree with Toast. A rebranding would be nice and fresh, but there's nothing unsatisfying with what we have.

[clever quartz]

wheres the 'do nothing' option

or do i not understand 'use it as an escape'

the main thing with expressing publicly opinion on major trending topics is that they will never seem genuine

no org/company will ever publish a controversial opinion

so they will either say they support the 'mainstream' side

or say nothing

[long bough]

i feel like unless its an objective argument such as spreading awareness for covid or something, it isnt necessary

Probably both

To be able to get certain scores you need to have a certain amount of control

[green token]

Yeah

I started from plat too in scores

Then I understood how scen worked as the best way to do it and improved my control meanwhile

[tiny torrent]

ye i think its gotta be both learning the scens and some amount of improvement

I'm starting to realize I'm definitely not ready to grind for GM. There's still too many flaws in my aiming that I need to work on before I'm ever ready to hit the benchmarks again. It feels like I'm rushing into things too fast, but I really need to take my time.

So, I guess the moral of the story is don't get too antsy. Improvement will come, you just need to be patient.

@zenith wadi

Because I was (and honestly still am) in the same situation that you're in.

It's really the whole "Improvement vs. performance" mindset.

Just focus on improving for now, not performing.

[lyric rain]

i didnt even know kovaaks existed we will see how far my will takes me, started in bronze :/

[tawdry pebble]

really wished i'd find sparky sooner

before i wasted 100+ hours in kovaaks on free play tile frenzy and pasu

[fallow flume]

100 hours on pasu is 100 hours well spent.

[fallow flume]

Right?

[ripe notch]

i was a tile frenzy mini god

(top 1k, very impressive, good aimer, very fast crisp flicks)

[zenith wadi]

funny thing

I got the plat rank

constant 114 on first day of plat

-don't play for 2 days

-80 score pasu

@charred saddle how are you dealing with roughness, after a while it starts to be a bit bad for me

Maybe it's because I have delicate skin

[charred saddle]

i put on an arm sleeve

the second i felt the pad lmao

[green token]

Lmfao

Dude I tried with arm sleeve but too much friction

Literally couldn't move my arm lol

I have consistaim sleeve

[charred saddle]

i just bought a random one on amazon

[green token]

Stonks

I can dm you a sleeve voxel advised

[charred saddle]

yeah im trying the pad with and without sleeve

[green token]

He said it's 20% faster than consistaim one

[charred saddle]

def less friction with

than without

sure

[green token]

Try the pad without sleeve for a while

Your arm will be red lol

[charred saddle]

i dont think i want to haha

[sage oar]

Dm me sleeve too bb

@green token DM me the sleeve, too. My dechanic control is feeling a bit rough for me

[green token]

Heh I don't personally know if with dechanic it will be good

[sharp depot]

I had to switch back to my Fury S

[green token]

Unfortunately dechanic is really rough

I was enjoying it but

Idk man

It's too rough and sleeve makes friction too high and it's impossible to move

[sharp depot]

What sleeve would work with the dechanic the best?

[graceful cairn]

no sleeve

gg

[green token]

Ye

I'd say or the one I sent you

Or no sleeve

Christmas bought the sleeve I sent

So when he will get it

We will know

[lime yarrow]

i got used to the roughness in like a day. it might just take time

but also my arms are hairy so my skin probably has less contact with the pad

[sharp depot]

Yeah let me know, I'm curious

I'm still looking for an X-large size of it. I got a large size in the meantime just to try it out

Looks like they're all sold out

[fallow flume]

We're currently testing a new version.

[fallow flume]

And by "we" I mean @ripe notch is going to get the original versions high score on this new lower scoring system. So until then, we'll be waiting.

[nimble cape]

Can anyone help me learn to mirror? Everytime I try mirror I automatically anti-mirror even when I consciously try to mirror

any good scens for mirror?

[rare socket]

Have you looked at aimer7 strafe aiming guide?

Theres some routines in there. Id start with easy longstrafe scenarios

[nimble cape]

i'll take a look

[sage oar]

I do the same shit icy lol

do you need vods for master

[summer wedge]

no

[rare socket]

@river raptor Diamond!💎

[onyx marsh]

is it encouraged to take vods for master scores or do people not care

[summer wedge]

Who does the upgrades would probably hate you

[onyx marsh]

oh alright, I saved vods for my 4 scores I’ll just screenshot the end lol

[rare socket]

Just screenshots is enough for master ye

[tranquil geyser]

@worn notch is bounce 180 ever be rotated to the reload version ?

[worn notch]

Idk think the way it is now isn't worth the effort to change it

[green token]

maybe it could be added ?

like in this way people can decide which to pick idk

[worn notch]

no..

[green token]

sini dont be sad

[worn notch]

what we can do is maybe allow both

versions

but it will work quite wonky with balancing

and can't be done for ascended

[green token]

yeah thats what i meant

[worn notch]

and untidy in the benchmark sheet

[green token]

but if you do it with bounce

you should do it with pasu too

would be kind of a mess idk

[rare socket]

nah pasu is reload for a while now, and is way better than normal pasu. Allowing b180reload makes sense imo

[green token]

I'm also up for b180 reload

Not a fan of accuracy multiplier

[gentle quail]

b180 reload, 1w6ts reload, wide wall reload

all would be very nice additions/replacements

🙂

[rare socket]

Yea we talked about it last week also

[gentle quail]

it's talked about at least 3x a week at this rate

just not always to the benchmark people/sini

[green token]

I think that the majority prefers to not deal with accuracy multiplier

[summer wedge]

can i get gm with 121 b180 hits and 75% acc?

[green token]

Yes

Just move fast

[summer wedge]

thats not even master with acc multiplier

[green token]

You need to get like 20 hits more

[gentle quail]

yea itd be like 90

another 20 hits when already hitting 2/second

is unrealistic

[tranquil geyser]

gm would be 120:135 ratio if you don't play full acc

damn that's exactly it

@worn notch pts dodge still not eligible for role update right ?

[gentle quail]

hasnt been any update on allowing it yet

which is quite frustrating 🙂

[tranquil geyser]

yup, well guess i need another dodge

[summer wedge]

are you getting master II?

[tranquil geyser]

well i had it with pts dodge

[gentle quail]

i have more willpower to grind master with pts dodge being allowed than without

[rare socket]

You can still grind it

And then when its enabled again ez master

[green token]

Ye just wait and do pat last

I'm doing the same to get 3 movements

[gentle quail]

@rare socket lbs are just gonna get reset with a scoring change

[green token]

But I think that I'll go directly with gm

[rare socket]

Ye i know, or different scen even, but still

[gentle quail]

cant wait to go back to no target switch movement scen!

[rare socket]

You can still try to improve on it

[green token]

Air dodge is good

[gentle quail]

so daan

is the last weekly going to replace pat?

[spark tulip]

Whats #1 on bounce 180 reload?

[rare socket]

dont know if someone on a weekly got higher

[fallow flume]

My internet is down for the day.

Daan’s in charge.

[rare socket]

[sharp depot]

@rare socket you're using kpu?

[rare socket]

Yes

[sharp depot]

i just got mine today, and you've pararcorded yours right?

[rare socket]

Not yet. Glides tho

[spark tulip]

MORE KPU USERS

[rare socket]

@blazing iris Diamond!💎

[blazing iris]

[sharp depot]

yeah the kpu fuckin slaps

probably best ergo shape ever

[green token]

Wait for d minus

[sharp depot]

d minus is pretty much the same dimensions as EC2, right?

[green token]

No

Smaller

[sharp depot]

just maybe a slightly wider ass

they're both 120mm long, 61mm wide in the front

idk the height

[tulip mantle]

KPU feels like parental affection when paracorded and with new skates

[civic kettle]

Not yet. Glides tho
@rare socket what glides ya got on it?

I feel like it'd help on the very thin bots in thin gauntlet if my mouse would actually smoothly glide across my pad lol

Does feel a bit scratchy sometimes, are the stock KPU feet known to be not great?

[spark tulip]

Stock feet are kinda bad

Always have been on roccat mice

[civic kettle]

What glides have you got on your KPU then kosei?

[spark tulip]

I thinki have S2 Hyperglides on mine. But i ordered KPU tigers arcs.

[civic kettle]

I'll check em out cheers

[tawdry pebble]

where do u guys order ur hyperglides?

[sharp depot]

I think the stock feet on the kpu are okay

but I'm planning on getting some tiger arcs here soon

[sage oar]

lethal gaming or whatever

[river raptor]

is the g pro wireless a good mouse

my mouse broke and im thinking about what i should replace it with

[pine void]

its good

mine had no issues

[sharp depot]

@sage oar lethal gaming just sell the corepads and the tiger arcs

but corepads are basically the same as hyperglides

I think I may get the paracord, skates, and a new stress relief from lethal

saves me from having to drill through the stock one

[dim nest]

Do i need to get 3 movements scores for diamond 2 or is it just tracking, click timing and targetswitch

[gentle quail]

you should read the document

[dim nest]

i just says 3 in all categories

it*

nvm at the start is says including movement

[sharp depot]

Yep, so 3 clicking, 3 tracking, 3 targetswitch, and 3 movement...so 12 scens total

[gentle quail]

nice new pfp beckz

[river raptor]

does anyone else think that ground plaza is harder than air

[shut flower]

gp 🤢

[sage oar]

Yes

[dim nest]

ground plaza is faster but air includes vertical tracking

[hollow plover]

Air is more enjoyable tbh

[dim nest]

yeah

[sharp depot]

@gentle quail ty ty

[dim nest]

i suck at movement... time to follow aimer7s strafe aim guide for the next month

[tulip mantle]

@river raptor GPW is just alright imo.
Nothing good or bad about it.
Exept the fact that you are playing your luck with whether you get a doubleclicking one or not.

Yooo what could this sponsorship mean for Sparky?

[gentle quail]

huh

[worn notch]

big tings vinu

[gentle quail]

oh

i see

[summer wedge]

sini ui in kovaaks?

[civic kettle]

Better be sini, better be

[lime yarrow]

it would be cool if the benchmarks and the sparky leaderboard were implemented in the game. like a better version of the aimbeast ranking system. idk if thats possible tho

[worn notch]

@summer wedge no haha

[summer wedge]

:(

[worn notch]

@lime yarrow could be interesting

[green token]

Yeah

But you change it every second sini

[worn notch]

yeah people want it changed every second too

[green token]

Just add scen

[worn notch]

ideally we'd not mess with the benchmarks for a long time

[green token]

Or became a dictator

Toast is already a warrior

So you have your general

[gentle quail]

just make

acc%

reload

and remove reload in ts

that's like 90% of what people want

[green token]

However sini

In game rank can't spot cheat

[worn notch]

ye what people want doesn't mean it's necessarily worth changing at this point, we had these discussions about 'niche' changes before

cuz I too think it's better

[gentle quail]

it's better for improvement and doesn't reinforce bad habits

therefore it's worth changing

???

[spark tulip]

Acc multipliers are so shit

[summer wedge]

benchmarks are benchmarks not training scenarios

[green token]

Kosei

Go back to banana fish

[worn notch]

acc % doesn't necessarily reinforce bad habits

[gentle quail]

they do

they absolutely do

especially in lower scores

[spark tulip]

They don't always but whats the point in having most people play the scene safe. Its hard to learn to go faster when its better in that scene to just go slower

[worn notch]

they don't necessarily do, and they also make the scores for static scenarios so hard to achieve. in the end I would still prefer reload for clicking and no reload for ts.

[gentle quail]

why do you continually say youd prefer it to be that way when you also say you dont see a reason to change it

they are contradictory view points

[worn notch]

because it doesn't just matter what I prefer, like I said we've discussed it before and we decided it's better to have all the niche changes in one document and then apply them at the same time

not only that but it also keeps messing with the rankings sheet and the scoring distribution

[gentle quail]

so just say it's too much work to change

????

[worn notch]

invalidates a lot of people's scores as well on those

[gentle quail]

instead of "there isnt a reason"

there is a good reason to make the changes

[river raptor]

honestly i would love for kovaaks to adopt the sparky ranks

it would make it easier to flex on people

[worn notch]

I said it's not at this point

not that isn't worth changing at all

[green token]

To be fair

Sini you are too sad

Smile

[gentle quail]

maybe an alternative idea is just have the reload clicking and non reload ts as alternatives ??

just raise the score threshholds by whatever they need to be raised by

[worn notch]

I think that'd be reasonable

[gentle quail]

on volt just make it so people have to choose which specific one they submit and they cant submit the other

it would allow old scores to be kept

I mean I think that's the best compromise

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[worn notch]

it wouldn't work with ascended / rankings sheet but for the lower ranks it could

[gentle quail]

ascended yes

[worn notch]

as they use specific scenarios

[gentle quail]

but it should work with volts

[green token]

So what will happen

[gentle quail]

probably nothing

in the near future at least

:))

[worn notch]

no because acc % based scenarios and reload scenarios are played differently and for instance if there is no reload on ts it could raise scores as well. the rankings of the scores are based on cumulative percentages from the top to plat per specific scenario, so you would have to convert say regular pasu to pasu reload and vice versa, same for pat no reload to pat

[gentle quail]

ah i see

how it would fail

I assumed you could just swap the alternatives

[worn notch]

I used to always

make changes that I believed were better

[gentle quail]

and not allow submit on say 1w6ts and the reload variant and it would still function

[worn notch]

and make them really fast

and not care

but now it takes longer cuz everyone has to agree

etc.

[gentle quail]

I mean it's a community based around self improvement

the volts thing is...

[worn notch]

• taking into account how it messes up people grinding for ascended

and stuff

but for benchmarks up to GM

[gentle quail]

it's a good compromise for that area at least

[worn notch]

if we'd add the option to apply

with that

it should be a lot less frustrating

and they're fundamentally the same scenario

just one has a much better scoring system

[gentle quail]

yes

[worn notch]

and for ts it's just way less frustrating

let me put the benchmark optimizations document on

view only

and share it here

[gentle quail]

🙂

[summer wedge]

👀

[worn notch]

mgiht be some

stuff in that is no longer accurate

but

yeah just take a look at it ig

http://bit.ly/2OfJxHT

[gentle quail]

Announce all new changes at once with a 7-day buffer

so in the case of disabling scenarios

itd be nice if this applied there as well

since for the instance of pat dodge the day before people could apply with it and then the next day with no heads up it was just disabled

[green token]

I don't fully agree with the small scen for gm

I think small should be kept as training for normal

Like pattern recognition won't change in small scen

[tranquil geyser]

oh it seems interesting

[worn notch]

since for the instance of pat dodge the day before people could apply with it and then the next day with no heads up it was just disabled
@gentle quail yeah, the thing is that it's a new type of scenario that had a flawed scoring system which is why it needed to be disabled asap. Tested it in the weekly comp, but that's not the proper way to test scoring as we only figured it out after it was released :/

[tranquil geyser]

i need it sini

[green token]

since for the instance of pat dodge the day before people could apply with it and then the next day with no heads up it was just disabled
@gentle quail on this i kinda disagree because it was noticeable how easy the scen was so it wasn't an achievement at all. I didn't get mad at it on the slightest because I wasted only 7 minutes to get master

[worn notch]

and it would require a game update to change the cap

[tranquil geyser]

[worn notch]

but whisper made a new version for testing actually

idk if u guys tried it yet

Whisper08/06/2020
Okay uploaded patTargetSwitch Dodge 360 v2 for you guys
I decreased the movement multiplier by 4
sini08/06/2020
cool!
Whisper08/06/2020
Also, I'd maybe propose scoring like:

Ascended=9200
GM=8600
Masters=8000
...

[tranquil geyser]

i try now

[green token]

I didn't see at all sorry

[worn notch]

he posted it in benchmarks and aimtrainers

[green token]

Anyway sini

I don't agree with small scen for gm

[gentle quail]

@green token im not saying it wasnt easy, but it isnt very fair that a day prior people could apply then no one could apply when there was no heads up given

[worn notch]

remember those aren't my suggestions only

[gentle quail]

that's what I was getting at

[tranquil geyser]

is it fov locked or can i play 115 ow ?

[green token]

That's true aljo

[worn notch]

they are things people suggested

[green token]

Yes sini but

[gentle quail]

103 - 160 OW @tranquil geyser

[green token]

Pattern recognition exists in everything

[tranquil geyser]

ok ty

[green token]

If it's small or not

[worn notch]

ye if it were it'd be that luffy

[green token]

I think small should be for ascended at max

Or keep it as training

[worn notch]

ye but it's less of a thing in small

because you need precision as well

[green token]

Actually small bench will just push more pattern recognition because you are forced to do just it

Since you can't train a smaller ver than small

Also is kind of unfair for whoever got already gm

Because it's like asking for 2x the skills and effort

Considering you don't have an harder ver to improve on and learn the basic one
