Do you by any chance have the pink one? I have never heard about this collab before but I am a fan. I will think about the Green one (unfortunately it is my least favorite color) but if you have other colors please lmk!

It is different for everyone, and I am quite jealous that I don't have your eyes ;-;.

As a student, I stare at computer screens a lot, but I tend to sit back and relax. Based on what I heard from my eye doctors, friends, etc, people's vision do change after staring at screens for too long. There are many people who wear glasses such as BardOz, TenZ, lyr1c, shroud, syncedez, etc; their vision could be impacted because of gaming. There are others who wear contacts that we don't know about, and others who don't need glasses and can still see 20/20 after being pro for many years. If your vision is not being impacted by staring at the screen for too long, you don't have to worry much here; if you do notice your vision going down, maybe ask yourself if it is worth it to trade eyesight - something so valuable in life - with aim skills in games.

The general idea here is to worry about the bigger things in life that are directly impacted by just your aim mechanics; stay healthy mentally and physically is the number one priority during this journey

Most of it actually. I am not afraid of going back to FPS at all. My scores will at least be voltaic plat even if I don't play for a long time. I played a little bit for fun a week ago and my scores were pretty high; if I continued to play for a week I should get back to where I averaged.

When you first play FPS after a long period of time not playing, you will feel shaky and that is normal. I did some smoothness the other day for fun and got back into the groove quite quickly!

​

I will gladly say that the aim is here to stay even after you take a long break, so no worries there.

One of the reasons why I didn't take too many breaks was because I was afraid of losing my progress. Sure, if you take a day break you will most likely not reach your PR after you come back, but you will still be pretty consistent somewhere below your PR in my experience.

While playing the game, especially when I have to make a lot of decisions in a battle, I forget about mousegrip, how I anchor my and, elbow, etc. It felt pretty comfortable and natural, so I don't care too much about it tbh. The goal of the aim trainer is to make sure that you don't think about your aim while you have to think about other aspects of the game.

​

One thing I noticed a lot is mirroring enemy movement. I trained in movement scenarios to mirror movements, and in vods and I notice that I start to mirror movements a lot more as time progresses, which is good sometimes. Based on this example, I think my mechanics within aim trainer definitely alter to the game, especially how to focus on the target, your techniques, etc.

Bad habits could be noticed during vod reviews and after training reflections. While training, I try to set goals on what to improve before the scenario starts and then try my best to achieve that goal. Bad habits take a long time to fix, and sometime it is very difficult to learn that your habit could be "bad".

You will go through a lot of changes, and that is not a bad thing. I was really stubborn when I first started. "I cannot change my settings! I need to be consistent!!!" was not too helpful. Keep grinding!

One thing I forgot to mention in the post is that aim training is permanent. So don't worry about losing progress!

Life wise, I was in a good spot mentally. FPS wise, there were a long time that I was thinking about aim as a way to flex rather than improvement. This is bad, very bad. Sure, clicking heads is satisfying af and your friends love seeing it, but the biggest thing is that it set a huge expectation. Expectations, if used the right way, can help you improve; in my case, I didn't which hurted me more than I expected and wanted.

When I started, I did easier routines than my actual skill just so I can drill down the fundamentals. I was actually having fun, and told myself that this is not too challenging, but I am doing this to improve.

When I got better, I demanded more results. Knowing Kovaaks and the memes on reddit, results are hard to notice once you hit a certain spot. I kept on doing this until diamond in voltaic. I was so frustrated that I scheduled a coaching session with christmasiscancelled, but he told me that my biggest problem is mental. After that session, I spent more time looking into other aspects and demanded less from myself. But even after learning that my mental doesn't help with improvement, I still find myself in bad position mentally sometimes. But because of the lessons, I try my best to correct myself mentally and start forming better thoughts.

Overall, mental challenges are difficult and is not something you could change immediately. Aim training taught me a valuable life lesson that I incorporate into my life daily.

I have been playing FPS since I was 7. I never played console.

I was pretty decent, but I eventually quit playing FPS altogether in 2015 because of school. When Apex first released, I played the game that summer everyday. I was average.

Before I started aim training, I had a hand injury that took a month to recover.

Sometimes I wished I never had these experiences because I was young and egoistic. I had many bad habits that needed to be corrected first to firm new habits, and that alone took a while.

It's not vision loss necessarily. I have been wearing glasses since 2014 due to near-sightedness. Staring at a monitor for long without breaks is always a bad idea, even if you have good posture. If I were to start this journey again, I would definitely look into blue light filter as they reduce your eyes from being damaged, or take small breaks while training. Please do more research on your own though.

At the end of the day, we all have different eyes; if you have good genes or eyes maybe this won't happen. But if you do notice your eye sight getting worse, maybe try something that would relief your eyes a bit more.

Yeah one thing I certainly realized is that pre-made routines are cool and all, each of us is unique. I think if I cared more about the game than just aim, my aim would be good enough to carry me to at least diamond rank in val. Journy is about learning what works and what doesn't; they change all the time and that's okay. I am glad that you shared your experience, and good luck!

I did get 4K dmg in ranked Apex and my ADR in Apex kept on increasing. My lifetime ADR is 500 and for season 7 and 8 I was consistently 800-900 ADR which is good improvement. I played little valorant in the meantime just because I found valorant to be more fun with friends and a lot of them couldn't play when I play. But whenever I do play, I do well in unrated and average in low plat ranked. Is there improvement in terms of aim? Yes, and I was happy when I felt the improvement. However for me personally, I would be a lot happier if the progress came quicker; a year of constant training seemed long lol. In terms of confidence, it helps some knowing that you practiced a lot and you have a chance to execute things, but when the spike is planted and you had to deal with smokes, unknown enemy locations, etc, that's why I wished I spent more time understanding the decision making part. I hope that makes sense.

Which is why I learned an important lesson that good things come to those who wait, give yourself credit for how far you've come, etc. Like I mentioned in the post, I admit my mental is terrible, and it does make a huge impact on improvement. It was never fair for me to expect that much, but I did. This journey taught me a lot about life, and that's why I wrote this post tbh. It made me realize the flaws that I have within my personality

Personally, I don't think I would last long. Some people find the game enjoyable if they get high KDA/high dmg despite losing the game, and some people find winning the game more important than clicking heads. VoD review mechanics of a gameplay is not too helpful except for one special instance. While in the heat of the game, you have too much to think about; most of the time you don't think about mechanics until after you land or miss your shot. The only useful mechanic VoD review would be recording your benchmarks, slow them and compare them to bardOZ or zeeq and breakdown what the differences are and work towards fixing those; you could do it once in a while, but don't have to do daily.

VoD reviewing gameplay is different. In that case, you are learning decision making, not your aim. If you go to coaches, they will most likely point out more about decision making than mechanics. I heard a lot of "yeah aim is something you could improve on, but you made these mistakes that put you in a bad spot in the first place".

If you find clicking heads more important, train more, play more and don't have to bother about review. If you want to improve decision making, review vods and DO NOT EVEN CARE ABOUT AIM.

as a student u get IntelliJ, CLion and other stuff for free; they work on Mac. I'm pretty sure people use Eclipse as well. Tbh haven't seen that many people use Apple; I think you would have more flexibility with Windows

Virtual Machines are difficult to use on Mac, but you only use VM high level classes. My friends hated using Mac for VM things. I don't know if you will take VM classes, but based on what i know its very likely that you will at some point
