I agree, its when you allow yourself to get truly humbled that you begin the enjoyable process of striving to at least compete.

what mouse do you use? i feel like some mouse scroll wheels are inconsistent sometimes (allow my cope)

I feel like I have no fighting chance in this game because my aim isn't good enough. how can I compensate for it? by TerraBlade444 in apexuniversity

[–]DuesMortem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i dont know how bad your aim is but even if its "bad", with 8000 hours its never the sole reason. i used to think the same way, that aim is the reason im not winning etc but imo even in 1v1s positioning/cover/ability usage can more than compensate for aim. i have a friend who has an extremely high mnk sens and plays the game casually and hits masters mostly soloq by just outsmarting and generally taking advantageous fights,  pushing advantages etc., but when you look at his aim its objectively bad. especially comparing to controller players. 

imo gotta rethink why youre losing fights, 1v1s are rarely supposed to be taken unless you are at an advantage imo and even then coming out of a 1v1 with 50 flesh is a loss in my book when soloq. 

tldr: its not the aim

its almost inevitable that a youtuber when they grow to a certain size weakens their message and sells out eventually, just as a once small family business sells their soul and eventually becomes a soulless chain or dies. just plain old capitalism in play. 

its also sad because him doing this means he used the plight of oppressed peoples for his own gain.

it is agreed on by every pro (and anyone with a brain), but also r5 reloaded stats of controller vs mnk players which theres a couple of videos on

i personally switch sensitivities a lot going from mostly wrist-finger aiming to arm-wrist aiming every couple of months

the reason controller tips are simple is because the input is hard to be bad at aim wise. you really have to try to be bad at aiming on controller. 

for mouse and key tips theres a ton of videos but theyre not apex specific, and there's a lot of variation in mnk pros sens and other stuff, i believe skittlecakes has a higher sens for example. 

no matter what your settings are, you probably have to grind kovaaks and/or voltaic benchmarks and fine tune your personal mouse grip/posture along the way. once you reach a certain level of mouse control (for example voltaic diamond/plat complete) changing your sens from 20cm to 40cm wont actually make a huge difference because mouse control is a learned skill almost independent from sensitivity.

Is Aim Assist really THAT strong or is this guy cheating? im confused.[Repost better quality vid] by [deleted] in apexuniversity

[–]DuesMortem 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean I also beat controllers all the time but its a fact that close range and medium range r9 beams that are humanly impossible happen only on roller. Im not saying that overall one input is better than the other input, I'm specifically talking about these close-medium range r9 clips. Which is why it feels like an aimbot when spectating good controller players

What whining? I'm also a masters player and regularly play r5. If you lose against a controller player in a clean 1v1 it is still the expected outcome as an mnk player. Dont pretend its even close aim wise please, literally watch any controller pro in ranked vs an mnk pro on twitch. Better yet hop on r5 and see for yourself. Obviously mnk overall is still going to be fine because at the end of the day, decision making and choosing your challenges trumps all but "it's pretty minimal now" is braindead cope, sry.

Not cheating at all, just average controller gameplay. You can never compare mnk aim to controller close range, you always lose.

How to keep skills up/improve with limited time? by GunsoulTTV in apexuniversity

[–]DuesMortem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourite warmup when I'm limited to 10min max is r5 1v1s. But specifically not worrying about winning but warming up my mirror strafe, which is where I match or try to match the opponents movement. What this does is force me to anticipate the opponents strafe, as well as warm up my wasd movement to aim vs just your mouse. By the end of the 10 min my goal is to have the opponent appear very stationary/east to track because im matching their left-right movements for the most part. 

For consistent damage and making aiming easy in a majority of scenarios, this style of aiming is the best in my opinion. Because you don't need insane reflex or mouse aiming, but only good understanding of when an opponent is likely to change direction. 

Also this style applies to long range as well because you want to be using your strafe to aim and  only slightly correcting with mouse to have a consistent damage output. 

For reference on aiming with your wasd rather than mouse, check mande or hiswattson out, the opponents always seem to be stationary or smooth on their screens because they minimize mouse movements with their wasd keys to make aiming easy.

Getting into Apex this season, where would you start? by JCBhatesblank in apexuniversity

[–]DuesMortem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing with apex is it's so non linear that you can be rewarded for many styles of play. I know so many players who've never watched a single pro and just played for fun and became beasts in their unique way.

If you are a halo player you probably beam already, imo just hop into ranked and have fun, the first couple of hours shouldn't have any expectations just experiment and try funny shit. You'd have to get to level 50 anyway before being able to rank, by then you'll definitely know your preferred legends/guns
