Just as I was doing reflex scenarios in Kovaaks, Struth uploads a flick guide, godsend.

loving the music choice, thanks for the vid struth

While it may just be preference, I found that my aim is "calmer" or more "smooth" when my monitor is further from me (one arm's distance roughly), than when its like closer (around 7-8 in from nose) to my face, but I feel like my aim pretty much the same.

Wonder if you ever have any thoughts?

I have struggled with flicking in CS GO or weaponry (FPS game in roblox) and i wanna say thank you so much for the tips and now i can hit targets with a deagle and an awp

Hey Struth, I've been following your channel for a while now, and I love the videos!

I would like to hear your take on monitor coefficient. I have seen almost all of your videos explaining aiming techniques and finding your sensitivity, but I don't think I've ever heard you diving into the correlation between Hipfire and ADS sens, and how it affects muscle memory.

Definitely a video I would watch!

Very good film, will there be a similar one with tracking?

[ShaXCwalk]

At the highest level of flicking I would say that the higher the sens that you're able to control the better your flick. With higher sens, you will have even less travel time to the target and compensate for input lag and reaction time. Using glass pads will be even better at the highest level of flicking but it will require a lot of stopping power from your own hand instead of the surface. However if you can control the speed and keep the precision, that will be the highest level of flicking.

Note that this is an advice for people who are consistently in the top 100 in a lot of flicking/reflex click scenes on Kovaaks with atleast 10k+ entries.

Im curious what is your apex sens and dpi ? Also great video going over the keys points of flicking good stuff

[dscopefr]

haven't clicked on a video this fast in a while 😅

I would love for you to look into something Taxi2G did recently where he used his spacebar to shoot, saying "makes aiming easier cause your not holding down on the mouse"

I need your game configuration
your configuration
Is it 1.0 or a decimal number?

[Kittensandpuppies]

What's that thing on your right mouse button?

[JierJj]

struth my problem is that I actually can't control where I end my swipe with, each time it is a different distance than what I wanted it to be, do u know the fix?

*crosshair placement enters the room*

just sharing my non-aimpro-thoughts:

11:03 idk id say its easy: never flick if you dont have to ^^ if you can pre aim or track its way more efficient, thats the best tip about flicking imo. usually you only need to flick when target switching while out of position. so usually players benefit more from focusing on improving general crosshair placement, cover play and positioning than flicking^^ but ofc this is an "aiming content channel" where aiming and movement are being separated... a mistake in movement fps imo.

rebounds... 😬a sign of a too heavy mouse, leads to way too much unnecessary tension and movement - id guess in competitive gaming theres an insanely small amount of situations where this could be ever useful (high recoil revolver covering the target after the shot ofc is one of them tho).

[poWerr]

what have you done to that mouse D:
also you made me switch to the g303 and i love the clawmates :D

[fuchsi_arzeus]

hi, I´ve noticed that your middle finger isnt on the rmb but instead on the side of the mouse, so how do you rclick with this?

[icemanpatino]

Struth I have a new aiming tech that I would like you try. It has to do with sensitivity. How can I get in contact with you? Maybe you can provide some consultation.

yo, i am curious, which game is this at 0:14

[hone-pqpp]

do you like the xm1r shape for flicks?
i feel like my hand is way too locked in for micro adjustments with my xm2we wich is the same shape

[namelessbadguy]

Please answer this for me 🙏 I'm a Hunt player and I've been using a 1:1 ratio on my look sens and scaled with a calculator for all ads. I can't tell yet if that was a mistake or not. Should I have ads sens lower than look? What's best for the majority? Thanks in advance.
