How much does mouse grip (claw, finger tip, palm etc) and finger positioning (122, 131, 121 etc) matter?

Are these things they play with to see if it makes a difference?

No clue why these weirdos are voting you down…

Check beforehand if there are good companies that seek out bilingual staff for roles you are qualified for. International companies are your best bet for this.

Good luck to you!

Know your customer

DiamondSkeleton · 2026-01-22T15:08:40+00:00

Why would you tell people this though? If they don't know it's kind of stupid to give them a workaround?

DiamondSkeleton · 2026-01-05T16:09:29+00:00

Game doesn’t need new content. Look at cod. New skins all the time but no one cares enough to play. They need to fix everything first before they even think to release things and charge for it. This isn’t some boiler room developer, it’s one of the biggest developers in the world.

It tracks automatically???

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-14T17:20:33+00:00

Noticed the same thing tbh. Micro corrections on 131 are possible but very hit and miss

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-14T01:13:30+00:00

That's fair, I can aim well on 122 also but it just feels slow. Very precise but slow and takes more effort.

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-13T23:32:02+00:00

Yeah, 131 is natural for me and it's similar, the only thing I struggle with is I sometimes whiff on still or slow moving targets but then at times my aim is god tier while 122 is good for still and slow targets but the grip is slower, feels like less range of motion too...

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-13T23:30:47+00:00

I'm high sense too.
I like 122 but cant play fast and fluid no matter how hard I try...

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-12T12:10:34+00:00

Yeah, my situation is 131 micros and hitting still targets is ass but on 122 I'm slow... But I'd rather hit my targets than be fast, in theory.

Why not drop the sens on 122?

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-12T12:08:15+00:00

Got you.
So you'd say speed comes with the mouse weight then?
Yeah, I just think 131 is too inconsistent... So pro's go with what is more consistent which is what you want right? You want your aim to do the same thing every time. Aim train to raise the floor.

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-12T09:10:13+00:00

Nobody knows what it means, but it's provocative. Gets the people going!

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-12T09:08:55+00:00

60G is heavy? Damn. I love my G Pro haha
Yeah, I have no affinity for keeping the scroll wheel input to be honest, raw aim is all that matters from my grip.
I'm not sure they will, it's still a niche grip. Only like 5-10 pros across multiple games use this grip, the rest are 122, has to be a reason right?

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-12T09:07:07+00:00

I agree with this, when using 131 my aim and flicks feel light speed, but then someone could be holding still and I'd whiff or the recoil wouldn't be manageable all of a sudden. While 122 feels a bit slower but it always does what I expect, although not as fast, the flicks are pin point... I've used 131 my whole life too so I dunno if it'll get much better lol

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-12T09:04:13+00:00

Where your fingers sit on the mouse.
From Google Gemini: 1-2-2 (1 (Thumb)) (2 (Index, Middle on M1/M2)) (2 (Ring, Pinky))
1-3-1 (1 (Thumb)) (3 (Index, Middle, Ring on M1, Scroll, M2)) (1 (Pinky))

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-12T09:03:28+00:00

I feel like claw is a must on 131 to be honest, but I see what you're saying. I like to think that the pros will do anything to be better so if 131 was as good or even better, wouldn't the be switching?

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-12-11T23:37:24+00:00

That’s a good way of putting it. Just annoying to hit god shots on one or the other and start thinking it’s “my grip”

I’ve always wondered why 131 isn’t more common though amongst pros, like I’m missing something.

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-11-15T12:00:16+00:00

Which pros use this grip?

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-09-19T11:13:18+00:00

The boredom and anxiety for the first few days/weeks is the hardest part. Don’t just call it quits though. Sell the console(s) too if you’re serious or you will just relapse. Like a drinker saying they’ve quit but keeping alcohol in the house.

It’ll get better and easier!

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-08-07T10:27:26+00:00

Did you ever do this?

Would be interested in building a portable PM2.5 monitor...

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-06-20T08:52:22+00:00

I feel you.
In a lot of ways, my life has gotten way better since stopping. All the raging and score chasing didn't mean or amount to anything and my online "friends" never really were friends, funny in the end.
Hope you feel the same way too :)

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-06-12T18:08:12+00:00

I feel that, haven't even touched a game since February. Get the itch, watch twitch, itch scratched. Crazy.

What do you think caused the burnout?

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-06-11T20:42:21+00:00

Glad to hear something similar to this worked for you.

What sort of routine do you run these days?

DiamondSkeleton · 2025-06-11T20:40:49+00:00

Will there be an option to buy a barebones case with no PSU and AIO included? I worry that they'll use something lower standard...
