god this felt so aweful to record and upload lmfao

@vague frost :)

I think it's very visible how I completly neglected clicking scens for over a year

[vague frost]

ok, this task is all about practicing your micro adjustments, so you should approach each shot as you would micro adjusting after an inital flick

also ngl, that senario is AWFUL those targets are so big

[molten portal]

i am playing a voltaic playlist and a smaller version of this scenario would've come up right after this

[vague frost]

but you are hard aping this sen basically (flicking super fast with no regards for accuracy) when you should still be going slow enough for good accuracy

like, when you're playing 1w2ts, you don't adjust onto target the way you flick here, but those processes should be very similar

[molten portal]

so you would just say go slow?

and what do you think about practicing with a metronome?

i can't tell if this is a goofy gimmick or a tool that could genuinely help my situation

[vague frost]

no, don't go slow

there is a big difference between slowing down and going slo

you want to be going as fast as you can while being able to visually confirm your target

rn you are just zooming without being able to see if you're on target or not (or you're some kind of genetic freak because i could definently not confirm target if i was going at your speed)

[vague frost]

its pretty shit in 99% of situations

pacing should be dynamic throughout your run, and a metronome obviously doesn't allow that.

the only time where i do use it is if i really want to push speed (like if i normally havve at 120 shots per run i will set a metronome to 150 for a few runs)

[molten portal]

hmm

I think my real problem is how exhausting the concept of target confirmation is for me

for the first 20 seconds it goes well, then I notice how my vision gets really exhausted & fatigued and then start to zone out

[vague frost]

i mean, even in the first 20 second of your run you're not really confirming targets

[molten portal]

no not in the vod

[vague frost]

you're fast flicking and even if you dont land on target you still click

[molten portal]

the whole vod was obviously in the middle of zoning out

[molten portal]

but now when I try to apply what you're saying I noticed that

[sharp oxide]

always always always stay focused, don’t aim train for hours on auto pilot remember this isn’t about muscle memory

if you’re struggling a lot with focus lowk try a sens randomizer for a bit it’s super beneficial

[main arrow]

wait it isnt abt muscle memory?

[green tinsel]

Or adderal

[green tinsel]

Aim is almost 0 muscle memory

[sharp oxide]

never, you can realistically get used to most sensitivities (within a reasonable margin) in like 3 days at the novice level

couple hours when you've put a lot of time into aim training

[main arrow]

can you elucidate on this?

[main arrow]

could you also elucidate on this?

[green tinsel]

its all brain

your brain adapts

[main arrow]

so its like training our brains to react?

not neccesairly abt the motor part of it

[green tinsel]

youre training your brain to know how far it has to move your mouse to hit the rarget

[main arrow]

yea that seems like a muscle thing to me

[green tinsel]

its not

[main arrow]

ig thats where im stumped

[molten portal]

yoo thank you btw, ever since yesterday i've improved significantly

from 35th percentile to 80th percentile. Still not good but I am on a very good way

it finally feels somewhat good playing static lmao

hopefully I can now improve on the long run as well

[sharp oxide]

aim training is not a practice that gets you "used" to your sensitivity. the concept of aim training is more to get used to the movement of your hand to different pixels on your screen. if you, right now, changed your sensitivity by a small value you would not notice the difference although its there. you would maybe over or underflick for a few seconds but you'd "get used to it." it goes the same with major differences, when you aim train, it's not for that sensitivity, it just affects your mouse control and the correlation between movement of your arm and changing of your screen.

[main arrow]

yea this makes alot of sense now, watched a 2 year ld vid by riddbtw and he went over this concept and it finally clicked.

good thing I was able to clarify earlier on into my journey

thanks @sharp oxide

[sharp oxide]

of course fam
