DeathMatch VOD Lotus (warm-up)

[brave coral]

for: @kind mantle

Honestly I feel as though my main problem in Ranked is my gunfights, and usually in game and during practice, I end up either getting 1 tapped or missing my shots. When I practice in dm or tdm, I usually try to take it slow and sometimes it seems as though I run into enemy bullets or I just get killed faster than I can stop moving and shoot. I have done a bit of practice with movement and other than when my heartrate is up or I purposely run and gun, my bar is usually orange. I have played the game in the past and struggled with gamesense, while my aim was pretty good for my rank. But now that I started playing the game, I had more of a mature mindset but now my aim is bad (decision making too but thats not the point). I do want to improve a little and get better at gunfights so I can win more of my 50/50s when I need to.

honestly you just need to pracitce more

i dont see any mistakes that could be holding you back

i reccomend aim training if u have the time to do that

also idk how to explain it but u kinda stay in 1 area for a bit too long sometimes

like keep scaling in 1 direction while clearing angles

dont hold an angle for too long

u kinda like hold an angle a lot

just hunt for fights while being ready for them

i can record a dm rn and show u how t route

[kind mantle]

whj explains it in some video that the way dm works u can flick to another angle after u kill some1 cuz chances of some1 being there is high or sum

notice how im never really staying in 1 spot and holding an angle

[kind mantle]

the way im wide swinging everything and not really taking my time is really bad btw i would have gotten punished for it way more if i was playing with higher ranked players in this dm

[kind mantle]

just wanted t show u how to get more duels in a dm

[kind mantle]

other than that u dont really have any prblms

ur crosshairplacement and micradjusments is what u need to work on while playing dms, ur mvement will get better as u play more

Also, remember I'm just an asc player, so I could be wrong about some things. Just think about what I've said and if it makes sense, work on it

[brave coral]

yeah I think I get the jist of it

usually I am a little worried to get aggressive cuz I feel like im gonna get shot in the back

I shouly probably just try to expect them to be in front of me

I am going to have to practice my routing in order to get more used to peeking/pushing

[brave coral]

when playing TDM, what do you think is good to work on. Or is DM just better than tdm for practice, since tdm is a very different gamemode

I usually just tdm for warmup

[kind mantle]

tdm is good for warmup

[kind mantle]

for practice i think dm would be better tho

because ur playing on maps in cmp so ur getting fammilliar with it and learning how to peek certain angles

i dont really play much tdm but i think u can focus on ur aim in tdm

oxy plays alot of tdms i dont think he plays much dms
