dragging/hovering can also be influenced by the grip you use and your ergonomics, if you overhand Tripod grip and move your elbow outward you’ll feel resistance even while hovering for example

[@unkilodehuevo5551]

Another advantage of hover is that the tip is not worn and therefore should not be changed

There is a simple method to overcome that,just put a scratch resistant screen protector on your tablet and problem solved, i use the same tip for a year now.

[@username-lj6tl]

Lol me too, I only started tablet 2 days ago

[@XenoBaby]

When I started tablet for the first time, I used my phone as a tablet. I used those cheap pens, and the friction was way too much, so I put a thin piece of paper between it and my phone screen, which basically made the friction zero, but I still technically dragged. After getting a real tablet, the friction from drag was too much, and no piece of paper could fix that. So I switched to hovering and have been hovering since :)

[@idontknowwhattoputasmyname445]

Bro how did you use your phone as a tablet

[@teambl4dez]

Yes plz how

[@XenoBaby]

@@teambl4dez you have to use an Android device. Search up "virtual tablet lite (s-pen). There will be ads if I remember correctly, so you might occasionally touch them depending on how you hold your pen. Do not use the wireless mode, too much latency, wired only. I don't remember exactly how to set it up, so look it up online. I do recommend using one of those rubber tipped touchscreen pens with a thin piece of paper in between that and the screen, or else the friction will be way too much. Hope this helps!

I use a bit of a weird hybrid setup: greased glass. It's got the stability of having your pen resting on the tablet but with no friction whatsoever

[@anarkitty5270]

my first instinct was actually to hover (granted I literally JUST started) but I blame that on me getting my tablet to draw and animate first rather than playing osu first, so im more used to moving it around without having it down.

[@Goose-kb2yo]

Wait I know this is a year later but were you hovering while drawing??

[@Nirax3]

@@Goose-kb2yo I'm not OP but I guess they mean hovering when you don't actually draw but just move around on the canvas. When you're using your drawing software, your pen will probably be in the air more than on the tablet. Drawing/input = dragging. Movement = hovering. In osu you only use the pen for movement, the input is done with the keyboard. A friend of mine who is an illustrator intuitively hovered for this reason too.

[@penguinxrock]

@@Goose-kb2yo i will add on to what Nirax has said, as i also first got my tablet for drawing. when i'm drawing, yes i drag on the screen, but sometimes i switch to other windows (ex. checking social media or changing music). then i would hover because dragging would be like constantly holding left click while moving your mouse. outside of drawing, i only really need to put my pen down if i want to click a button, so i stick to hovering in osu (and of course, i want to save my pen nibs for drawing)

[@azaya8782]

BTW I use a drag playstyle and don't have a tablet cover, one disadvantage is that the more I scratch the tablet the more the feel of the surface changes and over time the scratchyness has increased the friction of the tablet changing how aiming feels. Although I use a Gaomon 620 so the surface material is probably cheaper. I didn't buy a tablet cover because it is legit cheaper to buy a entirely new tablet than to buy a cover off the popular websites.

I have a Foxbox cover on my wacom tablet and there is a very different texture. The standard surface, as I remember, was a little like some kind of smooth matted plastic with a little friction.

Also for dragging friction some pen nibs when new are cause a scratching feel but after a bit of use they wear in and are smooth. I prefer dragging since my hands are too shaky to hover.

[@quadrazard]

When I first got my tablet I hovered by default. I think it's because touching the tablet felt like the most natural way to click and it would be like to me if you played with mouse while constantly holding left click.

For a long time i was a Hover user, and always my right thumb and right arm hurt after a couple of songs. I tried many grips an couldn't find one that didn't hurt and was precise. I decided 2 days ago to try and drag my pen. It solved al my problems: - Nothing hurts any more - I have a normal hold - My accuracy increased instantly. I'm S-99% or SS songs that i could barely get A. My largest flaw was that i could not do accurate jumps, now i can. - And i can do really small and fast spinners. I could never do small spinners, they always had a big diameter and were more oval-square shaped. Now i can do the tiny, smooth, and hypnotising spinners top players do. To put it with numbers, i could do a 14000 point spinner before, now in the same song and spinner i can do a 24000 point spinner.

[@vioco]

The biggest problem with dragging (especially on cheaper tablets like my trash veikk) is that your pen nibs wear out quickly and if you don't keep an eye on it, you may find yourself with a square tip or a flathead-screwdriver tip (the latter was the case for me). This also worsens your aim because there's more contact and irregular drag. Also, nibs cost a LOT.

[@Horaheehoo]

There is another problem other than nibs, some cheaper tablest have hardware latency and cause your movements to be slow. I have this problem when i drag on my tablet and i use hawku drivers. (XpPen G640 rev-b)

[@vioco]

@@Horaheehoo oh yeah, I forgot about that but I also had that problem on my veikk. All those problems lead me to believe you should only drag with a solid tablet like CTH-480 or 490.

Yes. Only in the most extreme cases where your hand mobility is physically limited does it actually matter. It's mostly about what suits you mechanically when you play, how you've learned to hold a pen, what's most natural. The more you worry about shit like this, the less you'll be actually focusing on improving the real problem, which is that you just need to play more.

You could also buy less scratchy pen nibs.. there’s ones that are more… squishy…? If that makes sense? Lots of pen nibs that artists use are soft and don’t scratch (unless you’re like, going crazy on the surface. And even then it just wears the nib more than the surface)

@@tduxx Well, I cant say more than preference. Hovering gives you greater speed, but worse control (after lots of practice not noticable anymore) But Dragging gives you a great control and most likely better aim, but your tablet gets scratched up, youll need new nibs and if youll press too hard itll be tiring for your hand, means less stamina, but you dont have to press hard. You can be good with each playstyle, there is no better/worse, just look how you want to play :) Hovering will also be a bit hsrder to learn at first.
