You Could Be Aiming Wrong Without Knowing It | Aim Basics #16

[@orrlicht3718]

I focused on it for like 2 months and it created a big plateau in my improvement. I think this kind of stuff is important, but its important to mention that you should not overthink it. Overthinking the mechanical parts of aiming especially ingame can lead to obsessing over it and its not good. ingame you should not think too much about how you hold your mouse and this kind of stuff. About the friction stuff, I don't necessarily agree. Imo the friction of your setup is a personal thing/ depends on the games you play, accept for the initial friction that should optimally not exist for good micro movements. However, you should hold your button lightly regardless to not tense your grip and create a feeling of gripping your mouse lightly.

[@WestProter]

That’s a whole other thing about implicit practice and non implicit practice, a whole other topic for a much more complicated video, ironically on the topic of not overthinking.

[@llonelywolf-3776]

did you use space bar to primary fire ? if not which keyboard button ?

[@i_Vex169]

My wrist hover when i press the left click when gaming when not gaming my whole arm planted on table is that beacause tension holding mouse tight ?

[@knotenbauer8953]

make yourself not do that and probably also get a smaller mouse. Its a spasm that you need to unlearn

[@GiLLyMGL]

I feel like using my keyboard button to shoot would be much better since I can use my mouse only for aiming? Yes or no?

[@WestProter]

Did this for a while but found it’s hard to have one keyboard finger pinned every fight

[@nasvsan6191]

If you grow a finger

[@knotenbauer8953]

not worth it. Keep learning. There are examples such as legendary player Toxjq who was the best in the world and is still among the best aimers but there is no reason to change anything to what he uses.

[@knotenbauer8953]

@@WestProter why even would you. Im not here to personally insult you but the things you say only serves to confuse newcomers about very simple things.

[@rarejitter8485]

Technically wouldn't friction be needed for flicking, and shouldn't it be natural for your fingers to naturally adapt your tension accordingly to your actions?

[@ranespider1937]

No when you are relaxed and calm you are most precise and fast

[@knotenbauer8953]

when i saw the valorant thumbnail i thought "this cant be good" and then i clicked anyways and surprise its not good. You talk about nothing like its an epiphany

[@_canito2x_dz765]

I never knew this having a shoot bin in your keyboard sounds very interesting I actually struggle playing fps tense up a lot and I can’t track properly when I play apex. What key would you recommend

[@Natoboi]

how do i aim without tensing my arm?

[@knotenbauer8953]

use an adequate sensitivity and relax

[@ranespider1937]

Just relax and be calm

[@HeadsUpTV]

Whats that keyboard?

[@breachmain]

can you do more about mouse accel?

[@WestProter]

I’m working on it. I need a bit more time to use it and learn about it first.

[@mahdi-ev9ye]

would it be worse to have a mouse with a heavier click then?

[@WestProter]

I think so but I mean so many factors idek

[@mahdi-ev9ye]

@@WestProter can you make a video on mouse grips

[@WestProter]

@@mahdi-ev9ye I have at least 3 each one better than the one before. Basically palm bad, if your claw lets you move your fingers it’s allowed.

[@mahdi-ev9ye]

@@WestProter if ur palm is resting on ur mouse and ur playing claw i don’t see how u can move your fingers other than fingertip grip like you play but i rarely see pros playing on fingertip or do i have a misunderstanding of what you mean by moving your fingers

[@WestProter]

@@mahdi-ev9ye there’s a million different mouse grips out there, idrc what you call your exact grip, I’ve seen people call claws palms and vice versa. Whatever you call your grip, if your fingers cannot influence your mouse movements, it is making aiming harder.

like an NFT without the Blockchain or the image 💀💀

only by a few years but if you join and prove this comment was you ill give you one bc it'd be funny

[@krissakornchantra4131]

How tho

[@ApostropheYT]

og comment right here

[@brokenhearted4962]

my mouse is way too small and im too broke to buy a new one

[@knotenbauer8953]

small mice are superior. The smaller, the better. large mice add fake stability by forcing your fingers and/or other parts of your hands to be in a uniform position all the time. At the same time large mice limit your movement and fine motor skills through the same mechanic. Get a small mouse with a modern sensor. if you already have one, keep it.

[@LuizAlbertoMelo-z1v]

​@@knotenbauer8953i use a mouse from dazz,is it big for you?i have a small default mouse too

[@nfsfanAndrew]

Aiming on pc sucks. Dialing sensitivity is impossible switching between games.

[@j0ms146]

i just discovered your channel and missed the date 😢 can i get it sill maybeee

[@void8744]

this only works if u play claw tho

[@WestProter]

What?

[@Decki777]

Just play on controller fix all these things lol I mainly play Apex legends

[@WestProter]

Well ya, if you're gonna play a game that has dev supported aim bot, and you opt in to using a literal dev supported aim bot, you don't need any skill to be able to aim. Idk why that would even be a question. My channel is intended for people who either choose to suffer through other people using dev supported cheats or play games that require actual aim skill.
