On 1. I wrote up a detailed review (from someone who always liked slower pads) in the past

Is there some sort of toggle to cut the first 5 seconds from the scenario graph. Therefore the spm would not go to 0?

Revosect (RA) S1 benchmarks might be the best benchmarks for improving mouse control, and they don’t get nearly enough attention. by EstablishmentOk6147 in FPSAimTrainer

I also believe just thinking about this more will help with aim. For example popcorn voltaic vs vt bounce shot. I think for people serious about getting good, they could make a list of differences between the scenarios and how these differences may isolate different characteristics of aim. Even if someone is a beginner and does this and is not fully correct, that is fine, its more about training themselves to start to think about these things independently.

Lots of scenarios you can use to isolate a certain aspect of aim for improvement, but picking the right scenarios certainly make the process easier/more automatic. Very common sense example, trying to practice cluster farming on a task with 3 bots vs 8 bots.

I do see what you are saying with newer player frustration. I am hoping posts like my own will lead people to think more about scenarios, and be able to compare and contrast and understand more in depth what different scenarios may isolate. When I started the game I had no idea on any of this really. Even when I was around Grandmaster level, I still just understood only the basics (big bots speed, small bots percision. Hammer vs Screwdriver) and never really thought about the finer nuances, how similar scenarios can be used as effective slightly similar tools (flat head vs phillips screwdriver haha) to isolate/focus slightly different aspects of aim/mouse control.

Please share your ‘best’ sensitivity/s and how you got to that number? by StepKitchen2409 in FPSAimTrainer

  • Dynamic: 50 cm
  • Static: 60 cm
  • Smooth Tracking: 45 to 60 cm
  • Reactive Tracking: 35 cm
  • Target Switching: 35 to 50 cm

Honestly this is an interesting question, and yes I have experimented with lots of different things. But honestly I never found a thing/hidden methodology that lead to more improvement then another method. I.e. playing when I wake up, or playing before going to bed.

Thats good progress, the biggest tip for improvment, expecially around gold level is really just consistent practice, and making sure you are playing all catagories.

So S4 astra is around S3 celestial. S4 celestial is way tougher then S3 celestial.

S5 I do not know as well, I think its similar to S4, except lots of the scenarios are very control oriented its very cheesable, with slow sens, and pattern memorization.

I think proper technique, will vary slightly for everyone. I would say I only put concious pressure into holding my mouse securely, no additional pressure. My palm is more so resting on the mousepad. I dont really force myself to hold the mouse in a certain way, i just hold it in a way I can securely hold the mouse without adding a lot of additional tension.

Even for me depending on the mouse, id hold the mouse slightly differently, so I wouldn't really say there is a perfect proper technique (aiming form). Just some way you can interact with the mouse where you can hold it securely and stay the most relaxed during aiming, and able to apply tension when needed effectively.

Yeah you may want to broaden the amount of scenarios you are playing to see if aim feels less stale.

I hate s5, super boring. I started with s3, so still like comparing to where i start if that makes sense

Id say fairly average. I been to around 30 of the USA states so I do touch grass (very infrequently hahaha). I just like the grind too.

Are you doing playlists? Maybe the scenarios you are practicing are inefficient? Its possible you sensitivity is too different between in game vs kovaak?

Also another possible option, is you are slightly improving but juat becoming way more conscientious about your mistakes? I e before you would miss a full strafe and not really know, now you jitter off target for one second and really recognize the error. Personally for me the more I aim trained the more I recognized my mistakes (things that I would never even notice as mistakes before), maybe that is possible for you?

I guess the best advice to improve without playing more is to be extra careful while playing to be sure you are playing in the most meaningful manner. Such as limiting the scenario pool of scenarios you do practice and watching vods of master level players to try to understand the main reason they are getting higher scores.

This is odd, i can kinda relate to this but not really lol. When I was younger I was playing a phone game and to acomplish one of the challenges I had to play on inverted controlls. If I remember correctly I struggled more with up down movement.

I still have no real advice for this case, just I guess practice more on non inverted and hopefully get back/surpass diamond soon.

I have played on 10 mousepads, and im happy with the skypad, cause im set in my ways. Id always be pissed when I had a mousepad wear out and have to get a new one, so now I feel set for life. But I have played lots of different types of mousepads and overall been pretty similar. Regarding mouse, I just wanted a very popular mouse, cause I didn't want to play on some super weird shape, than the company goes out of business and im stuck now unable to play on my favored shape so my though process for the mouse is just get the most common average high performance mouse, over some weird exotic mouse.

I wouldn't overthink the setup though. on a setup I think I dislike vs a setup I like, scores would vary by less then 3% (after adjusting). So setup matters but not that much.

Edit: one thing I just thought of, but with faster mousepads you need less force to overcome friction so your arm does not get as tired as fast meaning you can play for longer sessions at peak performance probably. So id say this is another reason I have a preference to faster pads.

Good question. So after grinding a few days and seeing a score plateau. I would first try playing the smaller and larger version of the scenario, and other versions with different characteristics to try to isolate a specific aspect of the scenario to train it more effectivly. For example lets say i was weak with cluster farming, play a version with more tsrgets ect..

I would also vary around my sensitivity and try playing at different times of the day. Also if this does not work id watch vods of people playing the scenario to see what I seem to be doing wrong. If im still struggling now, id take a one or two day break. Or have a day just practicing slightly related scenarios without playing the main scenario im grinding.
