intermediate pasu benchmark vod, i think my tempo isn't consistent but i wanna know specifically what i am doing wrong and how to fix it
i have identified that i am possibly putting unnecessary pressure on myself about halfway through the scen if i start missing a bunch but aside from that idk what i should be focused on (also i think the vod glitched out, it's not supposed to be twice the length it should be, skip to 39 seconds i think)
clever furnace
u should try letting ur flick continue into a micro instead of going to a stop
and try to lead ur shots more, ur trying to micro from behind every target which kills ur pacing
try to apply these 2 first in novice hard
U just need to learn to lead shots and ull pb pretty easily
clever furnace
u should try letting ur flick continue into a micro instead of going to a stop
u should find zeph s vod for pasu to understand it better ngl since u should flow for pasu instead of the traditional bardozish way
ur pathing needs work, look out for targets that just strafed and clusters with ur peripheral vision
And create a mental path
pastel hull
ur pathing needs work, look out for targets that just strafed and clusters with ...
i figured my pathing was an issue i just couldn't pinpoint what it was
so should i be focusing on the targets that are strafing the same way? or just ones that changed direction specifically
i pb'd on novice hard if you want the vod from that too, yk so if you can see if i'm actually applying it or not
clever furnace
u should prioritize those that just changed directions more because theyr relatively safer
But u should still try to get other targets too
But u need to flow
ur current approach is too stiff
clever furnace
i pb'd on novice hard if you want the vod from that too, yk so if you can see if...
Yeah send it
pastel hull
But u need to flow
ur current approach is too stiff
so when you say flow should i be like really loose
this still feels very stiff but yk
pastel hull
is this a common problem with pasu also just wondering
clever furnace
what problem
pastel hull
stiffness
clever furnace
yeah u should just let ur micro merge with ur initial flick
Instead of seperatinf those two
like what ur doing
or sometimes ppl would call it deaccelerating
pastel hull
so is this a smoothness issue also or is that separate
clever furnace
its not a smoothness issue its just ur approach
warm urchin
looks better than yesterday already though so thats good
pastel hull
is this better?
clever furnace
Yeah but u need to lead ur shots more
ur still trying to micro too much
and missed out on the clusters
pastel hull
ik obvs that's the answer but what's the best way to train that or is that just playing the scenario to do it
clever furnace
u just gotta play more
warm urchin
linear clicking maybe helps with leading shots cos bots are easier to read so you can focus on getting the flick to lead
clever furnace
also imagine a trajectory of the targets and try to intercept them with the leading shots
yeah that too
Time for floating heads + pasu training
pastel hull
yeah that too
Time for floating heads + pasu training
should i record a floating heads vod next for the thread
clever furnace
just send it here
clever furnace
@warm urchin can u take over i think im gonna pass out or something
ill help u tmr if she hasnt responded
@pastel hull
pastel hull
🫡
warm urchin
im in a zombies game but i will try
you are still overly tracking bots
dynamic relies on leading the bot slightly and having a good click timing to click once it enters your crosshair and then moving on to the next bot
you want to read the bots directional movement and visualise its path as a straight line and place your crosshair on that line and click once the bot reaches your crosshair
try forcing yourself to do that without worrying about score
pastel hull
that's gonna take some getting used to but i'll try
warm urchin
think of it like ur playing cs or val and how you hold an angle
assuming u play either of those anyway
pastel hull
i do
i think i lead a few shots here but i'm definitely still doing the whole "tracking the bot" thing when i shouldn't
warm urchin
yea that looks a lot better for leading you just lost a lot of speed in your flicks which maybe indicates you arent confident in your reads
what sens are you playing on btw?
pastel hull
50cm/360 for dynamic
warm urchin
ok that seems fine i guess you just need more practice with this technique to increase your speed
its totally fine to lead the bot by further to give yourself more time to react whilst practicing too
you can reduce the distance as you get better
pastel hull
i'm gonna take a bit of a break now but i'll come back to it when i'm ready, i have something specific to focus on now so hopefully things will improve from there
thanks for the help tho! much appreciated and i'll keep updating this thread as time goes on if that's ok
warm urchin
u dont need permission to post just keep posting and bug people to respond
pastel hull
i feel like something clicked with me, i can't say for sure because it's still early on and i haven't PB'd yet but after watching a few vods rather than focusing on the direction the bot is going in i should be almost sort of mapping out a shape to make in these clusters and not dart my mouse around so much at fuck knows where in the corners because i want to hit as many targets in the 60 second timeframe
like i don't have a vod for it yet i still need to condition myself more, this might be a bad way of looking at it as i know osu! is 2d space aim but it's almost like doing jumps in some beatmaps except the circles are moving
i'm very much not used to viewing it this way but i am trying to change the way i look at it because realistically no matter how fast i get my singular flicks to be, what's gonna be faster? wasting my time at the top of the map or clicking the bots that are in closer proximity for efficiency?
i understand the theory but i just need to put it into practice, i'll go back and spam novice hard until i PB that first
pastel hull
didn't manage to PB it yet but i managed to clean up a few other things and PB some other scens
pastel hull
any tips on how to score push popcorn? just managed to finally (barely) get plat on it, i think i'm clearly doing something wrong but idk what
clever furnace
u can try also microing to some targets
popcorn is usually just a play more
but u can try playing the speed variant
To get used to more angle
s
pastel hull
that would make sense, i'll consider it but i think for now i want to try and clean up the rest of my other scores and go for plat complete then come back to my dynamic to score push
having this advice here means i can come back to it when i do decide to score push tho
ykwim
clever furnace
yeah
pastel hull
what are the main things i'm lacking here? bc my click timing is still not perfect but i think it's better than it was
clever furnace
well its probably just reading
something that comes with more plays
u can also try to take more risky shots if ur pacing is good enough
warm urchin
ur like afraid of hitting clusters it feels like there are lots of opportunities to chain but u flick to a far target instead
clever furnace
warm urchin
dont stare at me like that cat
pastel hull
ur like afraid of hitting clusters it feels like there are lots of opportunities...
i wish i could explain why i do that
because i honestly have no fucking clue
like i'm p sure doing that killed my run in frogtagon just now, i PB'd and got 980 but if i kept the pace i had at the beginning i could've got a diamond score probs
warm urchin
u should play the cluster variant of frogtagon and speed popcorn and just get used to microing between clusters i think
pastel hull
if i seem a bit slower it's because whilst going for this PB i had (and still do have) a throbbing pain in my leg right below my left arsecheek and idk why
i think my chair maybe isn't comfortable
idk
getting a score was more important tho
true dedication am i right
warm urchin
i think ur uhhh just making some bad target choices there more than anything, chasing targets about to bounce but overall ur pacing is just slow so u gotta work on that
pastel hull
how do i beat it out of me to not go after a target or get stressed bc the pasu bot just went in some weird direction like i'm trying my best to move away but smth in my brain is fuckin me up somehow
also my left leg beneath my ass still hurts really bad and i think it's my chair's fault it's wearing down and i can feel the hard pad underneath, pb'd whilst that was happening but if you look at the end i lose SO much pace that i could've kept up
clever furnace
u need to lead ur shots more
pastel hull
i been trying, what can i do outside of playing floating heads and frogtagon
i feel like it's a processing issue like i know what i SHOULD be doing but my brain just
can't comprehend it or some shit
pastel hull
i'll try that when the aching subsides
pastel hull
i feel like it's a processing issue like i know what i SHOULD be doing but my br...
do you get what i'm saying tho
like does that make sense is that a common issue
clever furnace
Yeah
Its just a play more with that in mind and hope ur brain rewrites a new habit
pastel hull
or interm novice speedp
i think i still need to lead more but is this an improvement? i went onto pasu intermediate speed
(ignore the two restarts)
clever furnace
yeah u just need to play more atp
pastel hull
like just that scen or more in general?
clever furnace
more pasu
u just need better peripheral vision awareness to read to lead shots better
warm urchin
try to make sure ur playing some intermediate hard for 5 minutes before u play the bench too
