[@yac7571]

wow after 15 years of pure palm grip i finally found an alternative grip that could work for me. liked and subbed, appreciate the work you put into this!

[@GustavoMsTrashCan]

I've got to admit that you are the only FPS player that can actually explain logical and concrete ways for improvement! I'd give you a dime for this video alone if I could.

[@icyFPS]

thank you rambo for another great video

[@WisdomPowerCourage]

Oh yeah! I asked for this

[@Osmondnewyen]

I grew up in the SGV and looked up to you as a kid. Great content!!

[@Cozmicsaber]

I’ve been using this grip for a while. Didn’t know a pro had the same grip. Now I must study him more!

[@informal_iq3542]

Yo I never thought about this! It actually feels like I have more control. Can’t wait to try it out in Kovaaks

[@Ken-zz8xj]

we have all been waiting for this video

[@brysonw7270]

Another tip from the legend 💯🔥

[@GuddaFPS]

Definitely gonna try this since I'm a claw gripper , thanks for sharing rambo

[@giyuutomioka5760]

I find claw gripping really useful and comfortable for flicks and tracking, I don’t know how to explain it but I used to play valorant with fingertip grip. During the time I was only silver 1, idk why but claw gripping allows me to move my wrist more comfortably and it helps me with more precise aim. With fingertip grip it felt like my whole wrist was stuck, like it was locked and I coudn’t move it as well as today. Try it out because it helped me out

[@mercury5254]

Thanks coach!

[@gracex7031]

i heckin' love TenZ!

[@tartinator8002]

Hello, thanks for the explanation, really clear. If you know about it: Does his wrist rests completely on the mousepad or just scratchs a bit on it ? May be the wrist doesn't even touch the mousepad ? I have the same interrogation about Shroud

[@jakku2110]

I also realized his desk is super high above the secret labs arm rests

[@Poppy-zw1bp]

I can confirm TenZ is in fact not actually that tall at all. I met him at finalcon(finalmouse convention for the starlight pegasus) and I would have to say he's somewhere in the neighborhood of 5'8-5'10. Just rough numbers though as someone standing a little over 6 ft.

[@Sunzz]

Just came across your channel and thought to myself, i swear i recognise that name. Now iv realised its Rambo from Team 3D back in the day that i used to follow! the good ole cs 1.6 days :D

Something like that has to come natural its very bad to overthink such things

[@sid_x_18]

@@vincentvandeperre1670 really good point . If I overthink about my grip then I keep it changing it and struggle to focus . But when I don’t think about it at all then I play a lot better and I don’t even remembers the grip I use . It just comes naturally after playing for like 5 minutes

[@SpagTechOp]

i do have a basic claw grip . which helps me a lot even i cannot micro correct my aim.

Hey Ron I just watched Ur mouse grip videos and it's rlly good. Is there any way I could show u a picture of my mouse grip and then u can help me correct it. Thank you

[@natochannel3242]

Thx bro

[@jordy.jackson.3141]

I aired my middle finger in the air a couple times when i first tried this grip but i started to grip it around the front of the mouse the same exact way as the ring finger and i feel like it grips the mouse wayyyy better because it counters the great force of the palm rather then just depending on the weak ring finger to oppose that palm force, one downside to this is that i had to change my right click to a diff key because my middle finger keeps clicking it but it’s worth it for the aim

[@elite6733]

Bro's training middle finger

[@omaral-nidawi4110]

Can you make a videos explaining the mouse grip for the asus harpe ace?

[@kev3914]

Can you do ImperialHal's grip? I saw that he only has his hand on the desk and he plays on a low sens. 2.0 & 400 dpi

[@vincentvandeperre1670]

He used to play 1.4. he plays 2.3 now wich is concidered a medium sens. Playing only with your hand on the desk is very bad tho he will probably not have a long lasting carreer

[@hazel0001]

Hello, I know that you will answer me with the slightest chance, but I have a question: How to return the form after being absent from the game for 1 week or more. Maybe I need to tune in somehow differently or something like that? Спасибо вам!👍

[@SmritiKaul]

can you please analyze the mouse grip of el diablo/envy yay? thanks!

[@everygame1234]

Off topic but I was wondering if you had any experience with ergonomics of MOBA gaming. I can't seem to find a proper sitting guideline for league and I cannot seem to find a comfortable posture.

[@sh0uta794]

You should have done this like a year ago :/ I waited for this for soooooo long

[@setsuna6632]

Is his wrist is elevated from the mousepad when he aims? Because the back of his hand is pushed in on the back of the mouse and I feel like its highly probable that he plays with his wrist off the pad.

[@SpeedySpeedsBoy]

Do you have any tips for someone who changes sensitivity all the time and wants to stick to one, like TenZ? I really need help in that case..

[@xminoJ]

Here’s a good tip stop changing your sens lol

[@wizt17]

Nice Video. Can you make one about Niko's grip?

[@thebulletkin8393]

Quick question, in this setup, is your elbow above the desk so your arm is flatter? Is that better than the elbow being below the desk?

[@ybsss4223]

experiment and go with what feels most comfortable and natural for you. theres so much variation between pros’ sitting and arm positions, so whatever you feel is best is best for you

[@thebulletkin8393]

@@ybsss4223 at the moment I feel rather tense in the shoulder when I play, as if I’m constantly raising it. Trying to find a position to fix it and play much more relaxed. I’ll keep trying stuff out but I’ve seen how many positions there are, just a matter of persistence:)

[@antoinenijhuis450]

So your palm/wrist is not touching the mousepad? Maybe it is for him since he has tall hands? Mine is floating if I want to grab the mouse with my ringfinger. Is this correct, or should I let my wrist rest on the pad?

[@ayyidk7644]

Grip it like tenz 😩

[@grimooire]

hello ron! i have year following your channel and i have silly question, do you know how to no tense my arm while im aiming or tracking have any guide of that?

[@RonRamboKim]

Try keeping the same amount of grip pressure. Don't fluctuate between harder and softer

[@n0raaFTW]

"grip it like tenZ" bro that title

[@k3ee101]

i have the same concept but my pinky is folded where it has a horizontal force with my thumb

[@ryoshi7353]

[@gormiksoc]

What do you think is the best mouse for claw palm hybrid grip where you need palm support to anchor the mouse, so far I like np01 and g303 but looking for something smaller.

[@JavierMartinez-jh4ov]

XM1, ZA13, Burst Pro / Air

[@origin5828]

Should I be keeping my sensitivity through all games I play ?

[@FeelLikeGastly]

How does he right click? Is it with his ring finger or moves his middle to mouse 2?

[@hitts8928]

I have the same grip, but after a while it starts to hurt since i have the xtrfy m4, it has holes from all the sides.

[@josedamas7272]

gross lol

[@tiagotsimoes]

@@xtebite For those like me, who work with sotware like AutoCAD, using the mouse wheel all the time (to zoom in/zoom out), its almost "natural" to use 3 fingers instead of 2.

does he use his ring finger to scope in? or he uses the middle finger to scope in

[@torontovlr]

I liked this grip but the fact that my finger keeps sliding away from the edge of the mouse is bothering me, any sugestions on how to fix this?

[@ridzz3458]

Only thing i can think of is ur hand is too large for the mouse and maybe can find a Lil bit bigger size by measuring ur hand and looking on a site with reccomended mouse sizes Drying ur hands with something Or maybe a glove that helps with grip like something rubber based but thin

[@ridzz3458]

Not hospital glove kinda thin

so kinda like twistzz where his palm isnt touching the mousepad? i always find this grip to be hard to control for me since i've always aimed with my palm touching my mousepad. Tried it for a game once and I liked how smooth it made my aim but it still was kindof hard to control

can you say me how can i use fingertip grip with same grip everyday.(how to get stable with fingertip grip )

[@Hyouseff]

that's the downside of the fingertip grip u can't hold it the same everytime and also how cold ur hand is affects ur whole grip but im not an expert he probably talked about it in his older videos

[@henlolneh]

best way to practice consistency with a new grip is not to hop into an actual game. hop into an aim trainer (of your choosing), run one round of whatever skill test, and try to force yourself to be cognizant of your mouse grip more so than hitting your shots. I would work on that in the aim trainer for 30-60 minutes prior to hopping into a game and then doing the same thought process in game (don't worry about accuracy, just worry about consistency in grip whilst playing your game). from there, I would say after even just a week or so of consistent thoughtful practice, your grip should stay rather consistent.

[@blank-jo1xp]

I find it's easier to find your optimal grip if you pretend your mousewheel and sidebuttons don't exist and just focus on pure aim. I realized that my aim was compromised because I was subconsciously trying to keep all my buttons accessible while still aiming. This style of grip requires using your middle finger for scroll wheel instead of your index finger
