[strange kestrel]

whats a good training routine for tracking?

[brave pecan]

Yep. You can play it once again through a mod. Look up IW8 Mod

[hearty crane]

I'm still not entirely sure what to do with my sens tbh. I usually play between 30-50cm mostly around 35 but I wanna get better at tracking scenarios and I'm not sure if I should be practicing at lower senses up to like maybe 75+ cm or maybe even higher senses does anyone have advice? anythings appreciated

[gusty otter]

Tracking at 75 would be literal hell. I find I can do 95% of my tracking at 45cm/360

[hearty crane]

ok gotcha I just find it hard to be as smooth as I want to be under like 60 atm

[foggy scroll]

just got into aim training nd ive been doing viscose benchmarks s2 medium once everyday should i keep doing it or should i do it like twice a week or three times and do other playlists

[scarlet loom]

what should i do to improve static?

[twilit moat]

Spend more time with it

[digital crow]

read the third pinned messagbe

thiss is a bad approach

[normal hare]

Looking to get an artisan mousepad but I am not sure which one is for me I am more of a controller player with 800 DPI but I also favor speed kinda like a good balance

[foggy scroll]

viscose has a really good video about it i recommend you watch it

pingu also has a good mousepad video watch either or both to figure outwhich one you want

[normal hare]

Ok thank you so much

[foggy scroll]

anytime

[foggy scroll]

i read it but when i did a benchmark all of it is like on the same rank except like 3 routines which r way higher but other than that i dont really know what other playlists i should use instead of the benchmark ive been doing

[digital crow]

just play whatever you like most

then

[final igloo]

ive got a friend who just got into aim training, he wants to improve aim for valorant, any tips for him, what should he grind

[rapid umbra]

the anima micro v2 benchmark

[undone saddle]

I seem to get my pb when im usually distracted with my thoughts and go on autopilot
Is this normal?

Although prior to autopiloting i usually tend to play the scenario multiple times while focusing
and then somehow suddenly i start thinking about something else but my aim is always better than when i was trying to focus earnestly

[fallen crater]

dude wtf why are we in the same wavelength of thought LOL https://medal.tv/games/kovaak/clips/mO2yrjeWbQv3ePrZl?invite=cr-MSxpZm8sNTc4ODcwMDEy

this was the best 20 seconds of aiming i have ever done and I realized it and sold immediately 😭

I was gonna ask if anyone had any advice for keeping yourself out of your head like I did here and keeping the pace up

[undone saddle]

Same mate
As soon as i realize im on a good streak
It gets to my mind and i start panicking
Luckly this run i realized i was doing good at like 58 seconds into the run
so i got a good score

[tired hearth]

what might feel like autopilot is probably the zone state, which is where you perform the best

[twilit moat]

Focus on other aspects like pathing or reading, aiming should be subconscious

[fallen crater]

bro i know when you get the autopilot at the end and blast into a pb it feels amazing 😭

[fallen crater]

right, I have trouble with pacing myself after a miss and have a chronic double click habit that ruins most of my runs, but when I miss it always fucks my pathing because I react to it and move my eye focus back to that old target instead of staying on course.

Its mostly mental here though I would think? Like try to somehow ignore a miss in terms of my eye focus and keep the pathing consistent?

[twilit moat]

If you missed just move on to the next one and path it back later, this would safe more time and pacing

And if you missed more than 2-3 shots in a row take it slow and mentally reset

[jovial venture]

My pbs are usually 50% autopilot 50% focus

However if I’m on 90% autopilot 10% focus, it’s more difficult for me to pb

It usually happens if I retry spam a scenario too much

[ornate herald]

This happens to me too

[main basalt]

how can i have those healthbar

[sly stratus]

hey guys any tip to stop being inconsistent aim like once am performing like its my "prime" aim and next day i feel like i cant shoot a shi

[twilit jetty]

guys im 25 days in Viscose benchmarks and right before Seal Complete but since a few days i dont hit any new PBs. advice?

[neon lark]

what type of aim training should i do for valorant, i only do three static scenarios on kovaaks

[digital crow]

wdym?

[warped plume]

keep playing

[rotund mauve]

Try other benchmarks, and record ur scenarios to fix mistakes

[autumn compass]

I think he means the bots healthbar

[digital crow]

you just go to hud

and click show health bars

[autumn compass]

[runic crag]

Guys i need to be more gooder at Air Spectral easy, any advice?

[crisp tapir]

How many hours of playtime did it take yall to reach diamond in every scenario?

[runic crag]

you can check my messages i sent a graph a couple a months ago

[ornate herald]

How long should I play consecutively and how long should my break be to get the most out of my practice?

[crisp tapir]

any chance you could send it again? you have a bilion messages sent

[runic crag]

i would have to go trough them i cant be bothered

[crisp tapir]

[runic crag]

also my progress is and will be different to yours it shouldnt matter to you

[pulsar wigeon]

when practicing scenarios with micro corrections, how hard do you typically grip the mouse and what kind of sensitivity is better to practice on

[autumn compass]

440 hours💀

[violet kraken]

440h of benchmarks?

[autumn compass]

yeah😭

[violet kraken]

shiesh i have a long way to go

[autumn compass]

trust me it probably won't take that long for you im just a chud

[digital crow]

it is completely different per person

i know people who did it in less than 50

and people who are over a thousand deep and still haven't gotten there

[abstract portal]

And everyone has a different starting point depending on their previous aim experience
When I did the benches for the first time i had Plat clicking and Switching and Silver Tracking

[dull rapids]

how do i stop freezing up in pasu scenarios, its almost like i miss and then i keep clicking but not adjusting, my brain just freezes

[abstract portal]

well this is an issue with discipline, I dont think there is a magical solution for this, I'd recommend going into free practice on a scen for like 3 mins and focus on discipline

Or play a rep and restart every time this occurs until you finish a "clean" attempt (scuffed bardoz method ig)

[dull rapids]

ok ty

[kindred spindle]

I am grinding Air Pure Intermediate which is a reactive reading scenario. The bot movement doesn't feel obvious. Is this something that comes with hours of pattern recognition?

[violet kraken]

this is exactly me rn

[digital crow]

jade palace air on evxl

read the linked google sheet

[violet kraken]

i had no experience in FPS games which I assume has to do with the bad ranking that I started with

[abstract portal]

Platinum is not a bad ranking

[kindred spindle]

sorry I can't find the link on evxl, isn't jade palace air a benchmark? I am grinding for the viscose benchmark

[tired hearth]

it has technique explanations for the category in the introduction tab

[abstract portal]

It is a benchmark but just like viscose its made for practice

[violet kraken]

thanks

[kindred spindle]

ah i see, thank you all!

[lone cypress]

am i gonna have to start from zero again if my tracking out score my clicking?

[shut cave]

yo i have a question about static Tension how do u release tension During the flick and also whenever i think of adding Tension while flicking its usually too much and tires me out easily and can i fix this bad habit?

[undone saddle]

The sound of zone state does feel like the thing
but i was literally thinking about how matty and viscose would be coaching when signing up to the voltaic rampup and stuff XD
My mind was completely off

[regal cedar]

you realease tensino at the end of the flick, flicking doesn't work like tracking you can't change during the flick, once you lauch you flick you focus on the landing and micro/confirmation

[mystic imp]

how do I get better at static clicking I just feel like Im not reallly improving anymore after being consistent for 2 weels

[ornate jewel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXbCxj5FfWg&feature=youtu.be

PLEASE help me reach diamond what should I fix

I also noticed I was being shaky so I tried to be more smoother here https://youtu.be/q5gefN2z-KA

[regal cedar]

your not smooth, and you don't hook on the target, you need to never let your crosshair go off the target

[ornate jewel]

noted ty but what do you mean by hook on the target?

[regal cedar]

2sec

[regal cedar]

gonna record you smthg

well i can't record anything right now but when you hoow a fish, in theory he never go of the hook, well you do the same with you crosshair and the target

[ornate jewel]

ohh I see ty

[hollow orchid]

Can someone explain sensitivity to me? i'm novice in kovaakz, what sensitivity/dpi you use?

[scarlet thistle]

For reactive tracking use 25-35cm/360.
For tracking overall 30-45cm/360.
For static clicking use 60+cm/360
For target switching use 40-60cm/360.
Im using in everything 3200dpi, and my usually sens is 0.225

[hollow orchid]

oh, it's so high.
I was used with 64cm/800 dpi

I was told it was very low.
now i'm use 45cm

[scarlet thistle]

But if u feel comfortable, use that u have already.
Everything depends on u

[regal cedar]

sens depend on how you play to, i'm playing some switching and tracking stuff at 80cm, it's depend on many thing but what perfect said is pretty much what you should play

[hollow orchid]

Thank you very much, I really don't have much of an idea if my sensitivity was high or low for the tasks.

I'll try to make it faster.

[midnight jolt]

Is it reasonable to expect improved benchmarks scores week on week?

[hollow orchid]

I'm plat in Valorant, but in Kovaakz I'm iron

[dusty wasp]

at the start yes but not as you get better, and even then at the start ymmv

[midnight jolt]

ymmv?

[hollow orchid]

Do you usually play faster-paced shooters like Overwatch/Call of Duty or games with more static aiming like CS:GO/Valorant?

[scarlet thistle]

I play cs. Have 3200 elo in faceit. My static sucks, i need to play more static. I have gm in target switching but have diamon in static lmao

[dusty wasp]

your mileage may vary

[scarlet thistle]

But u know, using high sens is for like, decrease shakeness. Using low sens is for speed and stop control. So train whatever u want sens. Everything will improve u.

[dusty wasp]

isnt it the other way round?

[scarlet thistle]

Wth did u say?))

[exotic patrol]

guys
should i isolate my hands while dodgin and tracking?

[hollow orchid]

sorry bro, "Do you recommend playing the 'fundamentals' game on Voltaic? Or are there better things to improve aim?"

[dusty wasp]

read pinned messages, use google translate if necessary

[scarlet thistle]

Voltaic benchmark is helping good, but theres 100% better ways to improve aim. Depends on what u play. If cs, valorant, u should play, more statics and target switching. If u play like overwatch, or something like that, play more scenarios with tracking and target switching, i dont think that u need statics for overwatch

U can watch Mattyow, theres guides that u need. How to track, how to static, and TS. And even how to start if u novice

[scarlet thistle]

Also, i would say, train aim 50% in kovaaks, and then 50% ingame. So u can turn ur kovaaks skills in the game what u play

[hollow orchid]

I understanding now, I play a bit of both worlds, Deadlock and Valorant.

thanks bro, Your words were very helpful.

[scarlet thistle]

Okay bro, good luck to become the greatest

[scarlet thistle]

Hi, try to get minimum 95% accuracy, i recommend 97-100% on static scenario.
Also try with metronom, and slowly increase +5 when u have 3-5 in a row with 97+% accuracy.

[mystic imp]

Thank you, gonna try

[delicate tinsel]

What’s your advice to translate kovaaks aim into cs? Do you play dm or something else, or is it just naturally getting better in cs after playing faceit ?

[scarlet thistle]

First 45 minutes, train statics im kovaaks, then next 45 minutes, train in cs, first, workshop maps, just to get feel the game, and then train in dm, move like u are in a real game, but theres different types what u want to train, if ur first bullet accuracy is bad, than play dm with onetaps, and bursts. If u have bad spray, train it in workshop and then practice in dm, and faceit.
Everything depends on what is ur weakness and in what u want to progress

[delicate tinsel]

thank you i appreciate it. I will try that

[scarlet thistle]

Good luck to become greatest
