the BEST controller settings for Marvel Rivals - Aim Assist *EXPLAINED*

[@bimrof]

My updated settings video for Season 1 or Marvel Rivals is up! Thanks everyone for the comments and feedback on this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5W9XmCnaJikgsksi=NtDYEZLY0LikuhmZ

[@86blakew]

This helped me immediately. I used the banners to calibrate my controller and ran some practice on it. Within an hour my accuracy was up to 40-60 instead of 20-30. Thank you!

[@PrimeCinicus]

I had watched about 6 other controller guides and this one blew them all out of the water, Thank you!

I've been researching controller settings in this game for several days. Finally I gave up and just started brute force testing every value for hours. My findings resulted in settings very close to yours, thank you!!

[@Gvoozy]

First time playing a shooter with a controller on my PS5. Great tips. Feels pretty great for a person who played a lot of CS.

[@alexisnaranjo]

THE BANNER TRAINING WAS EXACTLY THE TRICK TO TEST!!! Thanks

[@bimrof]

@@alexisnaranjo glad to hear it! Thanks!

[@jaybles099]

These feel great! Aim in this game certainly has a unique feel to it, so I’ve been messing about for days, but there are so many smaller settings here that I would have never thought to change!

[@Delboy178]

Solid video cheers mate! Especially the sensitivity calibration method at the end there, really useful! I main Pyslocke and have been on a crazy high sens and this video has made me realise that it's more of a hindrance than a boon!

[@dzonymielony5]

3:40 You were catching aim assist from the bots far away, not from Luna. Window at 50 is way too big for me, but the ammount of rotational aim assist that you get made me switch from 1 to 20-25 on hitscans. You should've also mention that its beneficial to increase it for projectile heroes. With size set to 1, mid range, when you have to lead your shots, projectiles feel super inconsistent. Edit: btw, linear curve in nowhere near the real linear. You can make it 'more linear' by applying counter values in dual zone curve settings.

[@RoBGiJon]

Really good guide you covered the technical aspects in a comprehensive way 👍

[@kossieg]

very useful information. I've been struggling on controller. thank you!

[@YungSnorlax]

This is great, I haven't had enough time to dial up my settings like I did with Overwatch but this gave me a great baseline

[@soneca798]

This video is amazing! Thank you so much. I finally get someone to explain sensitivity properly for this game

[@mrbanana1316]

Man this great I didn’t really understand the window size so I had it at 65 because it felt better than the 50 and my hitscan ease in was at default. I notice that with faster hero’s it was easy for facing them unless they got really close and it was hard to actually shoot them, but this definitely helped out a lot!👍

[@thomassaint-yves5188]

My guy thank you so much for these settings. I've been struggling with aim since the drop of the game. It always felt weird and inconsistant. But with these settings it feels like aim bot I'm so glad I instantly improved.

[@bimrof]

@@thomassaint-yves5188 glad to hear it!

[@redmangoose182]

I love the work you put into this!

[@Kanto33]

Thanks this tutorial was great. I used your settings and aiming feels much easier now

[@zacbarrett8875]

I would suggest a bright yellow reticle. Not a lot of yellow in the game, lots of pink, purple, and reds. Makes it a little harder to see at time

[@unclezero7639]

Green is categorically the most contrast to red if that is the outline for your enemies

[@chinaecherem]

Such a great explanations. Thank u!

[@Will.Standfest]

Great video, very helpful. Going to go mess with controller settings now 🙂

[@stylishsteamy8197]

Good video. All the others are the same. Ill deffo try the 0 window size see if that helps

[@bookoo995]

As someone who has always been bad at aiming and can only play on Steamdeck, this was really helpful and well made! Thank you so much, especially for the aiming practice tips. Gonna start trying to actually get better now so i wont be hard stuck in silver, lol.

[@martinwalker6172]

Absolutely amazing guide. I was having huge issues with the aiming on this game after coming from Overwatch but this explains it so well!

[@tramtram7193]

The ain assist feels like its jot even there idk if its just me

[@angelvazquez6233]

Bro same

[@smhJaedan]

i’ve changed my sens over 10 times it’s feels so bad

[@oBig_Daddy]

Aim assist is way too strong

[@LuvRivxr]

You’re just bad. AA is far to strong in this game

[@angelvazquez6233]

@@tramtram7193 overwatch 2 AA felt way stronger

[@Dio_kazuhira]

This didnt work for me. But it did give me a good place to start. I dont like aim acceleration, but thats a personal preference. The tip to reduce the window for aim assist down to 1 was actually huge. Way easier to get on target. 190 horizontal sensitivity 185 verticle sensitivity No deadzones/boost 1 aim assist window 100 aim assist strength 0 ease in Green circle and crosshair. This is what worked for me. Feels comfy.

[@prudencewheeler100]

I wish your video gets millions of views because you have great content. Try running ads for your channel using some kind of system.

[@tubguinace]

I wish they'd just give us Flick Stick as an option for controllers with gyro, especially considering it has direct crossplay with PC.

[@NoBSGameGuides]

Ahh my man! Very nice video only you've been tricked at 3:38! Your aim starts to slow down because you are aiming at the opponents in the background! 👊👊

I wish the explanations on the right showed you what the default was so you could mess with your settings without worrying about forgetting the defaults

I’ve tried many many different sens and this my fav by far. Do you have an updated one or is this what you currently use?

[@bimrof]

@@Deep_Cea I've tweaked a few things since this video. Will be making an updated video soon!

[@connorloughlin8622]

Is there no rotational aim assist on this game? I notice the Sens slow down, but mine literally has zero rotational aim assist, I noticed a few others (nickmerks, he also mentioned this in one of his vids) also doesn't have it, yet when I've watched a few other settings videos where the guy was in the range and had rotational AA clear as day

[@mikeyyy5961]

Amazing video but what are your gamesir controller settings?

[@bimrof]

I've added my GameSir settings in my latest video kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5W9XmCnaJikgsksi=NtDYEZLY0LikuhmZ

[@frankazzuri8984]

When I try to aim center, my aim moves very quickly horizontally with little input from my sticks

[@KujoNJ47]

finally someone that uses the gamesir g7 se like me. also is that a black galaxy kontrol freek? if so we have the exact same set up

[@bimrof]

@@KujoNJ47 yoo exact same setup. I find I only need the kontrol freek on the right joystick

[@shaolinswords]

I feel no aim assist kicking in whatsoever with these settings and default. My theory is because I'm on PC when I boot the game up it thinks I'm using a keyboard. Not sure.

[@somerandomgamer1260]

Have you figured this out yet? I’m also on pc controller and I feel no aim assist at all.

[@shaolinswords]

@somerandomgamer1260 Yeah the aim assist is just extremely weak. Also might want to set your aim assist box size lower so it fits around the enemy character. If you go in practice range you can feel the cursor slightly slow down when you pan across an enemy.

[@kioumarsasgari6617]

Does control freaks actually help with aiming ?

[@Sendoh.153]

What i noticed is with most of the times you have to lead your aim

[@somerandomgamer1260]

Could anyone tell me why I feel zero aim assist while using controller on PC? I see others with the same issue but no one has confirmed or talked about it in videos. I get no aim assist at all using controller on pc.

[@theelusivememe1772]

What does assisst ease in actually do? Like the lower it is, lets say 0, does that mean aim assist will activate in full force immediately? So at a higher number it gradually kicks in?

[@bimrof]

@@theelusivememe1772 it puts a curve on how close to the target you need to be for the slowness to kick in. So when you hit the targetting window of where aim assist starts it doesn't slowdown 100% immediately, but increases over the ease in % you set

[@theelusivememe1772]

Thanks

[@CARTUNE.]

Just like in Apex, on 1000hz controller, nerfing the aim assist actually made it better for some with OC controllers like myself. They made the window of AA smaller and since I have pretty good aim to begin with, it makes it much easier to snap and track. I don't get that sluggish AA lug that we used to get. So turning down the AA zone size is awesome. So can you play controller with AA against MnK?

[@bimrof]

Yes definitely. Turning down the aim assist window size is so important for it to feel more snappy. The AA doesn't give any particularly competitive advantage since it doesn't help with tracking at all but if you have good aim on a controller there are so many heroes in Marvel Rivals that don't need highly accurate aim so playing on a controller against MnK is competitive.

[@Palevo17]

Thanks got the Widow's achievement first try

[@tgjames011]

What is the default curve? I come from playing Apex, and when I switched my curve to linear, it made a significant difference in my gameplay. I went from ~0.90 KD up to above ~1.10 KD per season. I may try these settings out on MR if it isn’t already linear by default. My aim just feels off from what I’m used to.

[@flash1323]

Hey really great stuff , i do have one suggestion..it would be better if you can upload videos on how to play melee character with controller handcam ,so that it would be even better ..

[@bimrof]

@@jaydeadly6976 yes it does. PS5 also has additional settings you can tweak in the controller settings itself if you need to customise further.

[@natrix0]

Yea I don’t know what it is with this game like the aiming just feels kinda off to me

[@bimrof]

I agree. There always feels like there's a bit of a weird laggy deadzone even on "linear" setting with aim assist off. Hopefully they'll improve the controller settings in an update.

[@oBig_Daddy]

Small window size is the best. The window at 50 is massive

[@bimrof]

@@oBig_Daddy 100%. I was shocked when I started testing and realise how big the window was at default settings. Makes no sense!

[@Charlie-j6t8v]

Is the aim assist rotational? Does it react to enemy movement or just slow down?

[@bimrof]

@@Charlie-j6t8v nah it's not rotational sadly. Just slowdown within the AA window

[@Malxer]

is that an xbox nano?

Looks like a GameSir g7 SE. Great controller for the price! Hall effect joysticks and 2 mappable back buttons.

@@Malxer it's a Gamesir G7 HE. Love it

[@adumate6543]

Thank you so much. I had a couple games tonight on Adam Warlock and it felt like aim assist was literally holding me back from getting kills. I think the aim assist is too strong by default.

[@bimrof]

@@adumate6543 yeah the slowdown effect is too strong and there's no rotational assist so it's pretty useless if not bad for aim

Max response time doesn’t work for my ps5, so this boost just messes up all my sens! Not just edge of dead zone but all the zone😢
