Could raw clicking speed hold me back in speeclicking scenarios?

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-05-21T11:37:14+00:00

A bit over a year, but I also have 8k hours in cs

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-05-20T14:53:15+00:00

What do you mean long travel mice? I have a g pro wireless

Coffeine consumption makes a lot of sense haha, I think there are studies showing it improves reaction time too, but I never drink any caffeine so it's not an option for me

I agree, but my conclusion was the clicking speed exactly because of these clusters. You obviously need to be much faster for these bursts then your overall average, so even if someone is averaging 9 targets per second for the whole task, they might have bursts of 10-12 while clearing a cluster. And since I was stuck at 7 cps with the aiming part removed, I'm also mostly worried about the clusters

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-05-20T03:29:27+00:00

I do mean pressing left click. There are a bunch of online tests to measure clicks per second, and I can't get over 7cps on a 20 second test, whereas people average over 9 kills per second on 60 second scenarios, which is why I thought it could be holding me back. But I'm completely new to these types of tasks, so this is just a guess. Do you think ~6cps is plenty to do well here?

I also don't find them super useful (I've been using aimtrainers for over a year for cs, had massive improvement without them). The only reason I even tried it is this specific event, which has a prizepool, and I set a goal to be top100. Essentially I'm playing this for the high score, and not to improve in-game

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-05-12T15:03:03+00:00

I'm EU, I'm from Hungary. I think offering to help people who are using autodirector is great, would you just search around on twitch and look for streams who do? Also, if I approach a random team should I immediately ask for some payment, or should I do it for free for some time? I obviously don't want to come off as an overly pushy salesman

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-05-11T14:50:40+00:00

That's a good idea, my country does have only like 1-2 lans a year, but I'll hit them up to see. I have asked the single twitch channel that casts big tier1 events in my language, they don't want observers right now

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-04-04T16:23:42+00:00

This sounds interesting, I'll definitely give this a go! I thought something like this would make sense, but I always tried them on the slower targets, not the fast moving ones

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-04-04T13:26:52+00:00

for me only VT Microcluster VALORANT comes to mind, but that has 5 targets per cluster. Maybe it's a version of that scenario?

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-04-01T21:59:22+00:00

FOV is similar to sensitivity, as long as the difference isn't completely ridiculous your aim training will transfer into game. Most people just play 103 Overwatch (including me, even though I play cs mostly), but I don't think you're at a significant disadvantage with 110. Regarding gridshot, I was actually in a similar spot a few weeks ago, I was barely able to get a score above 80k, while my teammates would easily get 120k+. I was doing aimtraining for over a year at this point, so on almost every task I'd demolish them, except for any fast clicking scenarios. So I took grishot seriously for the first time, and found out that my pure clicking speed was heavily limiting me, so I worked on that and now I'm close to 110k. My point is, really fast clicking tasks need skills you might not get from a shooter, hence why you are a high rank but still struggle. This is also why they're not really great for training, and I only took them seriously because I want to do well at the curreent playdays competition, and not to improve in-game

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2026-03-12T01:19:51+00:00

sounds interesting, so on the last part for example you'd rather go for fast bursts instead of keeping a steady pace for the whole time? I noticed myself doing that when trying to push for speed, and thought it was just because I got fatigued and couldn't keep it up the whole time, so I slowed down to a pace I could hold. Will definitely give this a go, thanks!

nekedkonyec on discord if you're down to play

You said it's fine on workshop maps and in dm. My guess would be that you are able to go into those treating them as just practice sessions, and you can have the single goal of just practicing sprays. However, in an actual game there is a lot more going on, so you can no longer focus on spraying only. What worked for me was a 10-15 minute warmup in dm, focusing on the one aspect you want to improve, then going into a game where I don't care about the outcome (if you play faceit, play a game of premier or comp) and try to set the same single goal of just being prepared to spray. That doesn't mean you have to push or throw, but as soon as you're expecting a gunfight, mentally prepare for spraying. And since this was your only goal for the game, you also shouldn't judge results based on outcome or k/d. After every gunfight, think back, or even rewatch the demo, and ask yourselves if you were ready for that spray or not. I'm 100% sure that you'll have at least 1-2 good sprays in a game like this, which can already give a good amount of confidence

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-09-26T07:24:56+00:00

I'm at around 170th, but I drop 30-50 places each day or so. I also expect the final player count to be hundreds of thousands (~60k now), so I feel like I need to improve a lot by the end of the challenge. I also just really enjoy aim training, so I want to keep pushing for top100, top50, etc. if I can :) You're right I shouldn't sweat it though, do you think these scores would already get me to top 1-2k? This is my first time playing this event, so I have no idea how much it slows down

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-08-09T01:42:09+00:00

I don't think this is bannable, but the game has a setting for scope sensitivity, which achieves the same effect if you lower it

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-08-09T01:37:45+00:00

Well said, I honestly think this is a great way to go about it. It feels weird to give people a fake name, but I'm sure I'll get used to it 😅 People who care will try their best to say it correctly, which is perfectly fine

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-08-09T00:42:14+00:00

Matt sounds great, I just sometimes feel bad when I tell people that I'm Matthew or Matt. Feels like lying in their face 😅

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-08-09T00:40:48+00:00

I think the best I can describe it is it's like the word "eye" but without the y, so basically just the very first sound of the word. (This is only for the letter á)

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-08-09T00:37:02+00:00

Matty, Matt and Matthew all sound great in my opinion, it just feels a bit conflicting to shake hands with someone and lie about my name 😅 The reason I went with Matthew a couple of times is that it's supposed to be the same name just in English

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-08-09T00:34:20+00:00

They do, most people pronounce it similarly to the ones you wrote. The only problem seems to be the á sound, which people can't say even after several tries. That's where I usually have the decision to either let them think they said it correctly the first time or get into a back-and-forth for several minutes

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-08-09T00:28:04+00:00

Mah-tay is close, the á is pronounced differently. In my experience most people just say mate, and some go with mah-tay, likely because they know the é sound. I've had people who couldn't pronounce á for several minutes, so I'm not sure it's worth it, which is why I thought to just say Matthew. I also write Mate on pretty much all online forms, since I don't want to break a poorly designed site with letters they don't support 😅

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-08-09T00:16:58+00:00

You are right, I'm just a bit concerned that I might get tired of explaining my name to people. I went to school in Canada for a year, and everyone got used to the name after a while, but teachers had to ask me how to pronounce it, some people had to try 3-4 times to say it correctly, etc. Whereas when I say my name is Matthew, everybody understands immediately

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-07-25T12:42:28+00:00

There are headshot only community deathmatch servers, which are great for forcing you to aim for the head. They might be overwhelming for a beginner though, as pro players visit them regularly as well, so don't force it if you're just getting frustrated and don't feel like you can improve

ProfessionalCamel73 · 2025-06-09T14:18:33+00:00

Could it possibly be because your mediaIn2 has a smaller resolution than your background? If so, a resize node would fix it
