[@Arteps1]

From what I've learned through 1000 hrs on Apex (700hrs of try harding) *think of your aim as a two way input, your mouse/right stick is only half the aim. Your movement also affects your ability to track players going at mach speed. Use your strafe to control horizontal recoil and mouse/right stick for vertical recoil* *focus on the enemy you're firing at instead of the reticle, Apex is more of a tracking game than a flicking game like Valorant. So, keeping strict tracking on the enemy is more important than being pixel perfect on your reticle.* *positioning. Where you are while fighting is always more important than your raw technical skill. A guy on high ground with good aim will almost always win against someone whose on low ground with the "better" aim.* *stop trying to learn everything all at once, do them like a check list instead. First learn the basics of fps shooters, then the character you like playing, then the basic movement techniques. It's up to you on whether you'd expand on that or not.* *lastly, Apex is a confidence game. Always have the ego of a honey badger whenever you're going to fight someone. Even though "it's just a video game", irl sports mindset still gives you a good chance of winning despite the cards not being in your favor. If you lost, gg nice try go next. Crying or raging about it is a waste of time and energy.*

[@kleshahnahstone1370]

[@-3dfx-]

What I appreciate in the video is how clearly you see the enemies when you fire, not a single muzzle flash from the gun. Now that you start explaining, paste the cfg commands that you use and it will also be easier for other people to aim.

[@Ragnar_5522]

I started this video thinking that these tips would just be a basic recycled video. But man, these tips are legit. Especially the recoil smoothing. Great tips and killer gameplay bro 🤙

[@Scyte89]

"slow your shot", when I realised that I was making this mistake it was a game changer, I went from randomly loosing easy 1v1 to beeing able to team wipe with a Peacekeep from time to time. That's a golden rule now for me, slow down a bit and dont "panic shot" just for the sake of shooting.

[@sixarmedpsycho_9]

I need this. This is the one thing I lack, and I literally die every match I play. Some may call it a skill issue, I call it a chance for improvement.

[@faboo2001]

Wow, I legitimately didn't know recoil smoothing was a thing! But now that you mention it, there have definitely been fights where I used it to my advantage but I guess I just didn't realize it. Thanks for the great tip(s)!

[@growingoaks]

Be careful when adding attachments to make it “better” because you will not have those attachments each game without fail. It’s better to learn with no attachments and heres an example Putting a 1x optic on a spitfire, I can hit a significant amount of my shots, but the iron sights fuck me up every time i use them so i need to practice with iron sights, not the 1x im not guaranteed. Similarly, you wont always have barrels to reduce recoil so its actually REALLY important to practice recoil with the base weapon. Once you figured that out, it’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience to control recoil with attachments.

[@Esidi]

that's true, I still prefer having a mag and a stock on because it allows me to be firing the weapon more often

[@growingoaks]

@@Esidi yeah its def good practice for when you get the mags! I just prefer to practice without them cuz theres no guarantee and i often dont find a mag unless im opening assault bins with bangalore or something

[@lolw7837]

If you play an assault character you are pretty much guaranteed a stock and mag every game

[@aidoruuu529]

Tips for me is keep calm while playing. Sometimes when you overheat or too much focused or easy panic. Your body is move on its own, and you gonna feel the game become so fast. So try to relax, find your best sit and hand position. Than you gonna find the game is bit slower, and you can adjust your aim everytime your aim is going shaky.

[@Esidi]

100%

[@iitzkatelyn]

Thank you! I’ve been wanting to try and work on my movements and aim. This video will definitely help me out 🙂

[@FatboiReborn]

What’s ur ign, let’s play

[@brandonsantana5981]

In my experience, after learning decent aim, movement helps a lot to polish it. By practicing hitting shots mid walljump or tap strafe, my tracking and flicks have been insane

[@Esidi]

True!!! also getting used to your own strafe speed so you can track enemies at the same time

[@forceghost8078]

Recoil smoothing seems nice but it feels like it makes me vunarable and there’s some situations it feel I can’t use it. Is there any tips for this thanks

[@taylorbecc4101]

i always struggle with my aim and I've tried everything 😭 maybe the sensitivity on my mouse really is the problem, thank you!!

[@Esidi]

I would start with something slow and slowly move it up if it is hindering you :)

[@IDKWHAT2NAMETHISS]

Ahh same my weak point is aiming which means my aim will never improve past a certain point (speaking from experience, 2500 hours in apex btw and over 7 years on fps games btw) and life doesnt like me so that’s probably my problem

[@muhammadfaizaditya1733]

I've played this game for 1200+ hours and still in Diamond rank. So it's my another tip to pro in this game (well, i know some of people will disagree with my opinion): 1) Don't be ego if you play with your friend or solo queuing. Remember your roles (example, if you use Hound, don't forget to scan the area when there are no activity in order to not get camped by enemies) 2) Team work is number one. If 1 teammate dies, it's so hard to get the banner back (Well if you're a Pred, maybe it's another story). Stay stick with each other 3) Remember the guns do you use. If you use SMG, play close. If you use Carbine, play medium/long (this is my experience). 4) I know it's out of context, but device is also effect to your game sense. I'm playing with 75Hz monitor and $35 mouse HyperX Pulse Fire Core (ignores the keyboard). And when I use my friend device that using 240Hz monitor and and Pulsar X2 Mini, my gaming sense was like Aceu frfr. So that's my tip for playing this game, thank you :D

[@muhammadfaizaditya1733]

Tbh, I'm playing with 70% movements and 30% shitty aim. So I'm just playing with my luck shot

[@IDKWHAT2NAMETHISS]

Damn ur in diamond, i have over 2500 hours and i can barely get out of bronze (it’s because of my aim it doesn’t improve)

[@TheOnlyBtap]

I love how they all just say aim smoothing. At exactly 7:00 in the video you beam with the flatline. You are not strafing in one direction and pulling the other. You’re standing in one spot but you’re still beaming. What is the damn secret that everyone is keeping from the community. You all say aim smoothing and yes that does work but most fights you don’t have the luxury of just moving One Direction. However anytime good player shoot their weapons whether they’re moving or not moving they still have no recoil. I would love for someone to actually make a video about what the real Secret is because you talked about aim smoothing and then two minutes later didn’t do that yet your recoil was perfect. Aside from that though great video !!!

[@Esidi]

It’s a mix of aim smoothing and learning the recoil patterns :)

hey I have a good tip. change your colorblind mode to trinational. the last one, it makes the colors pop out more when your looking for a rarity. it basically makes the colors brighter and it makes the damage counter purple. its cool

[@silent4807]

S tier video as always

[@jasonadersonwedion9874]

You should practice in the firing range without weapons attachment that’s how you improve skill

the attachments on SMGs don't change anything except for the random variability of the spread and it allows you to reload faster :)

Im actually curious what would be the general consensus on edpi, i see its usually around 1200-1400. I play on 4500 edpi and honestly anything bellow that just feels too slow and awful, I play on ultrawide which might also affect that.

[@overwhelmed2879]

1. I've been told to aim at the outer edge of the opposite side of an enemies strafe so if they strafe the other way it's back into your shots. That was from someone who's Astra on kovaaks. 2. Lower sens is a crutch. Not saying it's bad but it really is a crutch. 3. You're not counter strafing in all of these clips, I do believe you're using anti recoil cheats, unless you have better recoil control than any pro I've ever seen, in which case Kudos.

No joke y’all I turned down my sens from like 4 to like 2.3 and my micro adjustments in my aim was so much better, even though I usually play on his sens bc I play cod and ttk is so much fast there that you don’t really need to do a lot of adjustments. My kdr went up by like .25 and my dmg went up by 250 , still need to practice a bit more tho lol

I know I got solid aim but my problem is definitely reaction time, it takes a sec for me to readjust my aim, I definitely feel punished in Plat lobbies for this problem

[@Esidi]

crosshair placement might be the most important thing you to focus on so that when you do need to shoot you are already lined up so you don't need to react as fast

[@rnariiiiiii.]

I met traced like 2 weeks ago dude is crazy

[@LucaAndFede]

Apart from the other tips that we all have heard probably a million times, I wanna focus on two in particular. 1: you should NOT always use the same loadout, cause it will lead you to being unable to play with any other weapon and in battle royale we can't always find the exact stuff we need. Instead try and be at least somewhat familiar with all weapons so that you can be a better player, especially right off drop. 2: You should absolutely try and beam players while they're mid air as they have in air inaccuracy and are 99% of times in a predictable pattern. (On a side note I think ads then hipfire does not give you ads accuracy for some time anymore, they patched it out)

[@PROLOTH]

what he is saying in the vidéo is that for exemple you love peacekeeper, if you see it take it for the whole game because you know the weapon and the gameplay with the weapon but if you have an other weapon at the early game, you have no choice and you will learn to play with every weapok anyway because you dont choose at the early....but tbh i always find my favourites weapons very fast in apex

[@charliecoster4711]

Tip two depends. If they are falling in a straight line then yes shoot. However the example he used of being dropped on from a team flying in, shooting at them is hard to land high damage while they are in the air and will result with you reloading while they beam you. It's much easier to wait for them to land and then beam them while they're stunned

[@soybeanis3035]

ads hipfire does work, at least for the flatline and alternator i can guarantee, since they have visual indicators.

[@LucaAndFede]

@@soybeanis3035 what do you mean with visual indicators?

[@soybeanis3035]

@@LucaAndFede i should edit my first comment but I'm pretty sure it's all guns, if you look at the hip fire cross hair after you ads you'll see it slowly get bigger, but it's small like right after you ads indicating that it's more accurate. I'm in the firing range rn doing it with all guns. there are a few out doesn't look like it happens to, like the mastiff, mozam, 3030, but those already have good hip fire accuracy, great even

[@hellthiefchrolosnow6833]

This has to be one of the most helpful Apex tips videos I’ve seen 🖤 thank you

[@NotiioNz]

I've found that a 4/5 sens. Is the best overall sens. Helps with movement and the bump up in ads makes it so much easier to flick and adjust your aim being that it's normally slower than hip.

Does your standard pitch yaw change what your ads pitch and yaw?

I would recommend prioritizing positioning. A lot of COD players run out into the open because they are used to the fast time to kill, but in Apex many times you will shoot all your bullets and be left in the open. Play around cover so you have time to reload without taking damage :)
