Do you aim diagonally without realizing it?

[@MrBadliar]

Quick question, I see all of these diamonds and ascendants with this crappy crosshair placement, and I feel like mine is 50% or 60% better, especially with the Jett in the intro, I'm only Silver 1, is it that I haven't played the game enough? I think I've hit 400+ hours on the game already I never had the problem the jett had either.

For those working on crosshair placement. Go into a custom for the map you wanna work on and pick yoru. You can set his clone and sim angles you wanna speak from various spots/elevations. It'll also help recognize the objects riot has place at or near head height around the different maps. I shared this in a recent low elo vod just wanted to share again here since it's pretty topical

How did I not realize this sooner, of course you can use Yoru's own clone to substitute it as bot...

[@void.null_³⁷⁵⁶⁴]

I think the way we grip our mouse influences this diagonal line when aiming left and right. I've watched a Kovaaks video about how the way we grip our mouse puts the sensor on an angle and if we just naturally move our arms or wrist left and right, that angle makes it so that our crosshair goes on a diagonal line. This means that to move our crosshair in straight horizontal line, we have to also counteract the diagonal angle of the sensor. The Woohoojin Aim Labs playlists helps you practice counteracting this diagonal angle and eventually makes it natural for you. I may not be a good valorant player but I approve of Woohoojin's aim labs playlist.

[@aethar2750]

That was definitely the most passionate and ragefilled "why" ive heard from a talking banana

[@Valla451]

He is holding his mouse at quite an angle. Use RawAcell to correct the Rotation and take away the unnecessary extra adjustment. Most people should use it even with a slight angle. Makes a world of a difference.

[@doseNF]

Hey woohoojin! I’ve encountered this problem as well, I fixed by downloading mouse accel and using it to rotate my my mouse sensor orientation a few degrees. Depending on your mouse and your grip it could effect your aim like in the intro of this video. You can check it by opening ms paint and swiping your mouse left and right and seeing if it draws a horizontal line or diagonal line. You can change the rotation to compensate for this and then it makes aiming left or right on the same plane feel much more natural without training you brain to do it ! Hope this is helpful ! Thanks for all the great content!

[@peppe_gg8694]

In this case I think he is holding the mouse at an angle which causes his cursor to move diagonally; the best thing to do is to try and hold your mouse straight, if it is not perfectly straight it is not a big deal your brain gets used to your mouse being at a slight angle and moves your arm/hand accordingly. Another thing to keep in mind that might have happened is that he did a micro correction with his hand which caused his mouse to be at an angle and then when he moved his arm he actually moved horizontally but because his mouse was at an angle the cursor moved diagonally. So be always aware of your mouse orientation and with practice and time you get used to comfortably moving your mouse at every angle. There are also some programs which change your actual sensor orientation but I don't recommend those. Just aim train and play and you'll get used to it.

[@Solgrem]

18:24 I’ve always wondered why I’d hit body shots when visually it looks like I’m at the head. This makes SO much sense now cause I’m aiming based on what I see rather than what the game registers as headshot range

[@ampojohnfranz3836]

Oh you gargantuan piece!

[@itsAvient]

that aimlabs exercise specifically makes me feel sick, something about the way aimlabs audio gives feedback when you're on the ball makes me want to vomit (physically), if i were to explain it, it feels like a pressure build up in my chest. So I just try my best to line my crosshair with allies head when they're on the same elevation as me now :(

[@derSkedda]

I feel the dude... When I first got my new mouse because my hand was still used to the old one, my side to side movements had a 20% incline. It was so bad I needed to use angle snapping. Now I concentrated very intensively on fixing my mouse grip and It got a lot better. Difference is, bro still got to Diamond while I still Silver my way around the game

[@scottwangkl8882]

This happens because of mouse tilt and a simple way to solve it is if people are open to downloading rawaccel, they can use it to compensate for the mouse tilt so that their natural swiping motion is a horizontal one and not a diagonal one. I think Kovaak's channel covered this and I have been using it since because even with horizontal tracking training, some flicks still end up with up/down bias. So rawaccel helps with consistency. Knowing Woohoojin though, this is probably a poopoo suggestion to those seriously trying to go pro.

[@animegopher]

Bad idea, that's putting tape over your glasses. It doesn't actually fix the issue. It just puts tape over it. If that makes sense. You should always look to ACTUALLY FIX any problems that are fixable.

[@samlee4527]

@@animegopherit’s perfectly fine in this case because mouse tilt isnt due to bad mouse control, it’s due to the way you hold your mouse. If correcting the tilt requires you to grip the mouse in an unnatural way it will make your aim much worse, which is why correcting tilt with rawaccell is good.

[@aerated]

@@animegopherfor me to comfortably and ergonomically hold my mouse, the sensor is skewed. So I either have to learn that aiming left actually means moving my mouse left and up, or I can run a driver that lets me move my mouse left. And with no intention of going pro, there is quite literally zero downside. Do you consider getting the wheels on your car aligned “putting tape on the issue”? People who work at kovaaks and dedicate their daily lives to this recommend it.

[@animegopher]

@@samlee4527 It's a bad habit, imo. Most of the best aim trainers suggest you learn YOURSELF to control your mouse completely. That includes your ability to move your mouse horizontally without help.

[@samlee4527]

@@animegopher I see where you're coming from, but adjusting the tilt in this instance is not related to your ability to move the mouse horizontally. The way you calibrate the fix is by moving the mouse perfectly horizontally and adjusting if there is tilt. The tilt in this case is caused purely by mouse sensor misalignment, not your mouse control.

I can kind of understand why he does this because I also hold my mouse at an angle and during a 1vX fight where I have to flick a lot my crosshair goes down to the body.

It’s actually driving me crazy a bit

What's your opinion on also adjusting your mouse's rotation with something like RawAccel (No accel graphs, just the rotation).
