#Advice on Pasu

I find I do really well initially and this goes for most of my clicking runs on every scenario, I'm hitting all the dots. I'm reading to see the changes in direction in Pasu to line-up the next shot (to the best of my current ability). However if I miss one time I just panic and the run falls apart from there. Besides that could anyone give me any insight into possible mistakes with my technique?

I think your movements overall are way too erratic

#

we wanna go fast eventually, but our movement should remain really clean

#

Can you try turning your sensitivity down 20 cm and posting another run?

#

The scenario primarily assesses target reading

#

I like to have players temporarily train on a slower sensitivity to isolate aiming errors and let them focus on the target reading itself

His fov isn’t overly problematic

#

It being a little wide is fine

#

As long as it’s bigger than the minimum it can be used

vale valve
#

This shows the core problem much better

#

Which is that you are a poor judge of where to go next

#

You should feel the sensation of ‘I am waiting so long’ a lot more

#

So why are you waiting?

#

Bots generally don’t strafe right away after doing so once.

#

Unless…you aren’t tracking other bots in your peripheral and don’t know when they recently changed direction

#

Here’s two new cues for you to try on a new run:

  • if a target has recently changed direction, go get it.
  • if you don’t know or it has been a while, wait for it to change direction by hanging out behind it, and clicking it when it goes into your crosshair

Example, the person who’s thread we are in

#

So would you say even sacrificing my score a bit to build-up that peripheral vision and get into the habit of finding a bot, moving to it and whilst I'm doing that, scanning my peripherals for one to jump to as well?

vale valve
#

We are looking at your technique and giving you new ideas to implement

#

Sometimes that results in an immediate jump in performance sometimes doesn’t

#

But I already like your technique more like this.

#

Try again

runic furnace
#

Here's the next best one I had, I've tried to implement all of the cues. Making sure I don't linger on a target when my crosshairs on it, instead just click. When I'm pathing towards a bot I know has recently changed I try to keep an eye out in my peripherals. Definitely not good at it yet but I got a couple doing that.

vale valve
#

Should feel a lot better too

#

Now, you’ve stopped flicking, mostly in response to the sens

#

What I would call what you’re doing is ‘gliding’

#

Here’s a new cue:

  • explode into a rapidly decaying flick after each shot. Flicks should decay into glides as you approach targets. Stay smooth with glides for very dense chaining.
#

New run pls

#

I think i have the same issue maybe

#

Im not sure if my sens is too low or technique is just bad

runic furnace
#

Should make your own post with a vod, sorry for the wait @vale valve was just resting, been at it for over an hour

#

Also as for the progress channel, would you recommend me opening one? I'm curious how people use them, since I have a lot of questions on many scenarios I'm wondering if it'd be good to open up one. That way I can share vods and my own personal progress through the benchmarks.

You’re overflicking a ton

#

Have it decay faster

#

You just want a little bump in your speed at first (since we don’t need control really as we traverse from one dot to another)

#

Full flicks can come with time but being stable and smooth are really important for you to be able to read the targets

#

Reading is hard so you will learn it faster if you are constantly gliding

#

Over time, you can add flicks back in once you only need the micro to read targets.

#

But you’ll want to read basically constantly as a noob until you get more confident with reading with less information

#

Ultimately, at this point you’ve gotten a lot of information

#

You just need the hours

#

Spend a few days chewing on being more aware of your next target and reading other bots on the map so you can make good decisions

#

Explore 40/50/60/70cm and see how sens affects pace vs ease of landing shots

#

And when you go back to 46cm

#

Try to keep the efficient, smooth pathing you used here

#

You should easily be able to hit gold, then platinum, by just applying yourself for a few weeks

#

I appreciate all of the help a hell of a lot. I'll keep at it and jot down the conversation in here for notes. I'll also open a progress channel and post updates periodically.

#

U look much more deliberate now

#

And like you’re actually reading bots

My first gold on benchmarks just applying what you told me a day later

#

how does techique feel

#

?

runic furnace
#

Very good, gliding and I'm trying to get those decaying flicks down. For the most part I do and if I ever miss I don't dwell on it and just find another predictable bot as to not waste my time.

#

Very glidey and smooth, I think I prefer this sens for pasu

vale valve
#

thats how it should be (for your developmental level)

#

flick speed can be incorporated over time as you need to push pace

#

eventually you'll come to appreciate 35-50cm when you are c omfortable reading bots

#

and need the speed

#

at least for easier versions.
