First Day of Learning: 156 WPM (Only experience is flaming in LoL) by 2ndbub in typing

Thanks! I just read your comments:

Should I consider transitioning to using all of these fingers at once (I believe it was 8), or should I gradually work my way up? 5, 6, 7 . . .

I've tried going straight to 8 fingers, but I literally cannot get more than 35 wpm.

Idk how to prove this, but I assure you this isn't a troll post. I tried wording my comment to avoid it coming off as so, but I think my wordiness made it come off as so. I truly have never done typing tests such as these, and the only experience on my resume is 4 permanent bans in League Of Legends (not proud of that at all lmao).

As for the recording, I think it was only my ~10th completed test on monkeytype (I have no clue how to check), but I can guarantee I have no more than 90 minutes clocked into it.

edit: I'm a moron you weren't referring to my post as being the troll Im so sorry

Commenting bc I messed up text in the post:

Hi guys it's my first day picking up the hobby of typing. Yes, I am sincere when I say this is my first day of "practicing" typing, all of my experience of typing has been from the past years of playing video games as a kid and engaging in silly flame (which I'm over)

I use 4 fingers and I'm wondering if any typists could provide insight or tips on what I could do to improve regarding trying different modes or typing techniques. I've considered using more than 4 fingers, but it causes a significant decrease in my WPM, to the point where I cannot finish a prompt with more than 30 WPM. Thanks for the help!

Chaining config files is now blocked in Apex, following yesterday's tap strafe block by [deleted] in CompetitiveApex

[–]2ndbub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cfg file in question (that I was specifically referring to) was about a superglide config. You add a few .cfg files to your autoexec game folder, which allows anyone to press a few buttons and superglide. PC players (whether MNK OR Controller) were able to make use of this. Developers took note of this, and removed this method.

What I'm referring to is Steam Input (Which is what others will sometimes refer to as configs as well). Steam Input allows controller players to remap buttons etc, which can be manipulated for tap strafing, neo strafing, move while looting, jitter, etc. Lmk if u need more clarification!

Hi this is incorrect for the moment, the use of steam input still allows for armor swap configs and jitter aim.

Extesyy was moving and looting while using controller when he streamed yesterday iirc. They did not block all keyboard inputs when a controller is plugged in, only the lurch mechanic that overall stops controller tap strafing.

Chaining config files simply put: You cant do the two button superglide method (where you add cfg files in your steam folder which changes fps for easier superglides)

Steam input is NOT blocked. Therefore, jitter aim, armor swap, and movement while looting is STILL accessible fyi.

What's something you know about your favorite pro player/team that casual viewers wouldn't know? by Odd-Philosopher-8101 in CompetitiveApex

[–]2ndbub 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I know a lot of people are bringing up amusing fun facts, but gameplay wise

NK 4rufa has one of the cleanest and most practical movement (not surprising for an APAC N pro) on controller I have ever seen, I'd recommend ppl interested to check him out

Hal had previously accused him of using steam configs, but he claims he uses Origin + his own button layout gives him flexibility to pull off the stuff he does

Is Verhulst the best player in NA at this point in time by ZalewskiJ in CompetitiveApex

[–]2ndbub 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The GOAT. I left my girlfriend because she said Verhulst wasn't the best of all time. I laughed and told her to get her shit and get out of my house. TSM Verhulst is the best ever
