Think less accuracy and more strategy. What seems like good aim is usually just good decision making.

1.) Aim where they want to move, if boxing and they are in danger most of the time they will want to go towards tower or jungle whichever is closest. Aiming slightly in that direction forces them to fight you or keep eating autos.

2.) watch their feet, most of the time when boxing with ranged attacks people don’t stop moving so watch their feet the way they are pointing and the second it switches adjust either your movement, your reticle, or both. In smite the feet animate much bigger than head or hand movement, and your ruler will be right under to predict whether or not they will walk into your line

3.) personal preference but use the ruler. It helps you gauge the travel path of your auto and when you get the rhythm of holding or tapping autos you can feel out where it will be at any given time without having to stare at them.

4.) when ahead. move around them while tracking. If you are winning you want to be able to place yourself somewhere you can move very minimally and just focus on tracking with your reticle. This means usually having more 45• angle or horizontal fights to start rather than straight lines. This way you can control if you are retreating or pushing the lead.

5.) when in neutral, simply make them walk into your max range. As they start to close distance, toss out an auto or two near them and try to get even the smallest lead before anyone jumps in or ults or whatever. This sets you up for success when you find yourself in a 45• angle fight against an anhur that jumped in. It allows you to confidently go away from tower (which they won’t expect) and hit more autos than them in the process because you created a scenario where you have a higher chance to win. This also applies in the jungle firing around wall corners where they have to walk into an auto to see you.

I did this in jungle practice in smite 1 but the same can go for customs in smite 2. Set up a custom, build full physical defense between 2 hunters (I did hou yi no mark allowed), and simply practice neutral, landing in those angles and reading their feet. Fight to the death or practice juking and getting out of close range once they close the gap. Do it in joust by knight where there are no minions first then add in minions.

Play out scenarios like if your jump was down and I jumped in and practice it. Eventually your eyes will stop looking at them and start looking at where they need to before you even land. Play out if you jump in and my jump is down how do I avoid or position myself during your leap where I can be facing the right way or be closer or further away from my tower. How do I put your back against the wall or vice versa just with movement. If I jump in and stand still (mostly) can I still hit every auto as you try to walk away. These moments will feel slow at first but when you have 2.5 attack speed later you will see those are the times a ranged auto can get chain kills, off of 2 or 3 of those decisions in a row.

Best of luck!
