#I'm horrible at clicking

I just finished my benchmarks I decided to do the benchmarks after my poor performance on Cassidy on Overwatch last night. I think I have a lot of trouble with consecutive shots, I feel on par or even exceedingly good at tac shooters where TTK is very low, but when TTK is higher than 1 second, I find myself struggling with semi-auto characters. I'm fairly new to aim training, I really need help on direction. What scenarios or routines should I focus on?

Just push every other score and don't focus too much on your click score. You can have clicking as your lowest category all the way to master and that would be fine.

Well it seems like you've exhausted your own thoughts on how to improve in the clicking category. However, have you also exhausted your thoughts about every way for you to improve every other category (Track, Switching)? Every category will have you move your mouse and you will be building overall mouse skill. Hypothetically, if a week from now, you became diamond in every other category besides clicking, your rank at clicking will still follow and improve in parallel. Maybe your clicking only goes halfway to diamond, still it will be improving.

For me, improving with intentional thought and training at least keeps me more motivated to do it. That itself could be enough if you would burn yourself seeing slow progress otherwise.

Oh, thought it was the valorant benchmark at first but my point still stands. I was in a similar boat mentally, seeing my Clicking trailing behind. When I eventually prioritized on improving where I can in the short term was way more motivating for me instead of fishing for results with clicking if I'm just not there yet.

#

You can always target clicking later, but if you could see yourself improve in anything else sooner i'd advocate for doing that instead.

"NO Daiyamo! I still wanna train Clicking!"

Ok damn, my b.
If you have issues is OW2 on kill confirming with Mcree, maybe try with training to be more 'Tunnel-Vision' than you would be playing OW2. There's a lot going on in the game but when your killing someone with consecutive shots then try training in a different mindset that you are ingame where you're holding your head CDs, Ult charge, their resources, your HP, etc. Try to shed away that mindset that would be good in OW2 and train with mental blinders to your peripheral vision and be as focused as possible that your almost losing situational awareness and fully kill one thing at a time in kovaak. Try some clustered wide wall scenarios or Pokeball VBR with this mindset, work from the ground up and try to be more aware while still fully dialed in on the center of your screen as much as possible.

clustered wide wall scens and pokeball vbr okay thanks. and this tunnel vision thing. does this mean look at my crosshair as opposed to looking at my target?

At least for training yes, try out looking intently at the center of your screen. Imagine a CS2 player moving through a map, their attention is on a narrow FOV (often players talk about reducing their FOV and playing on 4:3), and when they are in a fight, the stakes are either they die or you die. No healer, no escape, you just have to perform right there, win and be faster than the other guy
