VDIM to Masters

[upper rose]

I have recently gotten back into aim training and now that i have sufficient time and looking for something to do i figured i would try and push for Masters .

All scores in the Intermediate screenshot are from Dec 2022 as this was the last time i was able to run all the benches, apart from Smooth Bot which i ran recently.

I also from time to time run the Advanced Tracking Benches just as a fun change of pace but i would eventually like to get GM tracking.

Current Sens:
Clicking : (Clicking Bad )
Tracking : 40cm/360
Switching : 40cm/360

Current Goals:

• Reach Diamond tracking
• To work on specific weaknesses:
• Speed matching
• Right to left tracking

I also do not wish to cheese any scores as I'm looking to get In Game improvement out of this in the form of better mouse control, tracking, aim confidence etc.
What i consider cheesing would be, changing Sens to be "optimal" for each scenario or employing tactics or techniques that are only really useful in aim trainers i.e Edge tracking.

Static is by far my most hated and the one that is least useful to me as i primarily play Apex and don't really touch Tac FPS at all, so Static will be a slog and in all likelihood a big bottleneck for a long time.

My method for achieving this will be VDIM as well as using some custom smoothness playlists.

I intend to only update this weekly once I've done a full cycle of VDIM as a way to motivate myself.

Week 1 Update: 24/01/2024

This week mostly consisted of shaking off the rust having not done a lot of these scenarios for over a year and finding what i want to focus on.

After doing Dynamic and Static Clicking i decided i really don't want to, its not enjoyable for me and provides very little to no in game benefits for me as its at a cm/360 i would never use in the titles i play.

I have also removed the movement scenarios as i was never going for "complete" ranks anyway and they just feel awkward and not like organic gameplay.

Score Changes

Tracking

• Smoothbot: 3526 > 3702
• PreciseOrb: 1719 > 1814
• Plaza: 2526 > 2526
• Air: 2025 > 2025

Switching

• psalmts: 783 > 800
• skyTS: 0000 > 1019
• evaTS: 560 > 580
• bounceTS 000 > 480

Now that I'm feeling back into it this week should hopefully provide me with some PB's. But time will tell.

Week 2 (ish) Update: 17/07/2024

Been a while since i updated this, well actually its somehow been 6 months.
I'm going to try and not think about that though as the fact 6 months has passed and i haven't realised will probably give me an existential crisis.

I originally had to take a break from consistent training due to a reoccurring injury with my arm, while still present its in a state where i can aim train again without pain or discomfort (for the most part).

From time to time during the last 6 months i have been running the occasional benchmark and have made some ok (ish) progress in some areas.

Current Sens:
Clicking : 43cm/360
Tracking : 43cm/360
Switching : 43cm/360

I have also swapped from SkyPad back to my Otsu as I feel I don't have the dexterity or raw control to make good use of a glass pad.

A lot of these jumps in scores have come recently so hopefully i can maintain this level of improvement in future weeks.

I know, Stevy sucks at coding.

Week 3 Update: 24/07/2024

This week saw some decent score increases, but i was mostly concerned with correct technique and reinforcing the habit of using correct technique.

Still massively struggling with clicking scenarios, specifically dynamic which saw no improvements however i did match both PB's 3-4 times each..... I might try and put some extra focus / time into them this week and see if i can break it.

I will also start leaving my total hours in Aim Trainers here just so i can keep track of how many hours im adding per week.

Aim Beast : 14.8 Hours
Aim Labs 🤮 : 77 Minutes
Kovaak's : 272.2 Hours

[ocean vortex]

W KOVAAKS TO AIMLAB HOURS RATIO

💯

Also wtf is that smoothbot

cheater

[upper rose]

Yeah, Aimlabs just feels so bad. Its like trying to navigate a news website with 7 different sidebars all full of ADs.

and damn its been over 3 weeks since i updated this Ive been so busy ive not been able to properly train again. Ill try update it again next week if i have time.
