I can't decide between "muscle memory is a meme" and "the perfect sensitivity for me exists and i should train on it" good to see everyone else is equally confused about it too

One thing that I think is seriously overlooked when it comes to aiming sensitivity in games is the movement speed of you character.
When i'm rounding a corner in CS:GO and Apex Legends and pre aim because i know what will be there, it will feel vastly different because the characters in the games move different.

[ruleset]

it all depends on the range and situation, this is why many overthink this
if a target is closer your sens will feel slower, if a target is farther your sens will feel faster
it's all about setting something that works for your playstyle, if you like pushing and getting in the face of your enemy use something faster and set this sens in that range, if you're not comfortable pushing just set your sens to something slower and set it for that range, now you can find the middle ground/hybrid or you can be powerful in one range and a bit worse in the other
it's all about leaving it and playing a lot, this will give you good mouse control, once you get used to it

I just love how the editing gets better with each video!
Seeing the information with such easy visuals helps so much(like 5:45 for example)

So glad to see u talking about the "Perfect Aim" topic, it's by far the most misleading topic at YT and it's been that way for as long as I can remember.
And, like always mate, you nailed it. It's so clear that the methods you mentioned are the best & the fastest route to reach the end sens. You just made me really wish to have seen this video around 8 years ago, it would have saved me so much time. But that doesn't mean I wouldn't test the methods you've mentioned, I'm honestly curious to do so right now.
Keep it up mate, I & so many others will always be looking forward to learn more from you. Best wishes mate.

there are many factors too such as mouse grip, hand and finger size/length, and mouse shape/size. I use a small mouse with a fingertip grip and have done numerous tests and only gotten comfortable with a higher sens than average. I did have a lower sens era, but I never got to utilize the strength of the fingertip grip as I always had to microadjust with my arm rather than fingers/wrist. I would argue that the more contact points you have to the mouse, the more beneficial lower sensitivity would be. Preference wins overall though, everyone's different.

Thanks for the video! I’m almost addicted to changing my sense and have success and failures at all ranges. After this method it felt like a great sense. If the feeling doesn’t stay I could just do it again depending on what changed. I’ve gone through so many mice and mousepads, FOV and sensitivities. I just need to pick something an stay in that general area

[ClownWrldUSA]

I appreciate the commitment of running kovaks in the background for 1, 000 hours for this video. You earned this like.

So, one thing I know is lower sensitivity usually affords you the ability to be more accurate long-range, but at close range it's just so tiring to move my mouse so much, which is what caused me to move to a higher sensitivity. Just tired of moving my hand and arm and stuff so much

[DoughnutDragon]

I'll over aim and under aim on the same sensitivity and then idk wether to turn it up or down.

I think over the years my aim has gotten much better as I've never been an aim player in games but it's still miles away from what I'd like it to be.

[ttvJuka]

something that still surprises me here and there is the fact that there’s a decent amount of people out there that don’t know what dpi is

[cameronwildly]

Thanks just by applying what you did in 2 minutes into the video i adjusted my sense, i am playing much better now.

[Lynx]

im actually so surprised this worked i went from 3.30 sens in apex to 2.9 and my aim was insane. i was hitting flicks which i wasn't really able to do before and my recoil improved much my only guess is i was trying to correct for the recoil and somehow ended up making it worse lol. thank you so much for the vid cant believe I've played apex for 250 hours and my sens was holding me back so much lol :3

[sillychicken]

This really helped me alot i always thought i was a high sens player but when he told to reduce it by 2 times that workedfor me i now play on 800dpi and 0.18 in valo which is very low

[petzouqi]

gonna be honest tf2 is my most played game and for that, it has my most accurate and useful sens at 3.94 @ 1600 DPI. Halo MCC wasn't far off but my keybinds between all the games were everywhere, so creating some sort of continuity helped a lot.

[Donni_]

This never works for me, I cant find a sensitivity because either too low or too high feels good, the problem after becomes the zoom sens for games.
IDK if I use 0%, 75, 100% mdh, 100%mdv or what, I cant play if a lot of them and never got to a conclusion on what is best.

[TheCEOOfAIM]

Whenever I started to care about being "good" at aiming I started changing sens to one that the best aimed in my opinion, the one I liked the most (XANTARES) uses, I was using .45 sens at 800 dpi and I switched to 2.5... 3 years of adjustment but now I can aim any sens I could want bc to offset the difficulty of switching to a "high" sens from low I kinda mastered 800 1200 1600 and 1800 dpi 2.5 sens, the only one giving me trouble was 400 and so I just grinded, but now I enjoy the way I aim and the amount of options I have now, I'm kinda climbing face it levels, got to lv 9 from 6 in 1 week and already have 2100 elo. What I wanted to state is that playing every sens gives more benefits then finding" your own" sens. My own sens was .45 at 400.

[RiskySunWuXIII]

the beginning had me lol
cause i def flew off the desk once

[NTRO]

Hey dude watched this before and think you might have the same postural issue i have.
Im basing this off of the over head view and how you set up to your desk. Its not a "we position the same so are the same" little thought assumption. In fact my position has my left arm angled kind of inward at the elbow joint and the same for my right. However logical thinking dictates the way you position yourself to be better in terms of accomadating the postural issue.

Anyway the reason i think you share the same postural issue is you appear to angle your torso slightly to the left, yet your upper body appears to be twisted slightly to the right. This essentially pulls the right shoulder in an arc backwards leaving it further away from the desk. You have then chosen to angle the arm further out so arm movements are less restricted by your own ribcage and it probably helps flatten out the forearm into full pronation, since with the shoulder relatively twisted to round too the right and therefore slightly backward its harder to maintain forearm pronation. (try it out pull your shoulder back and round and keep your arm angled straight forward. And try to maintain a flat palm down hand. Its possible is straining and unnatural feeling).
The solutions are to either extend the arm forward away from the body or rotate the arm outward away from your body. You seem to have chosen the latter for your own comfort and it seems to work for you (wish it worked for me too 😢)

Anyway the issue im talking about is a twisted pelvis. Specifically a left twisted pelvis in which your right side of the pelvis is rotated both in towards the body midline and down and the left can either be neutral or like mine is rotated left further away from the midline and up.

This is theoretical obviously with evidence based ln awkward camera angle imagery so it may be entirely incorrect so if you think it might be correct look through the following statements and see if they apply to you.

If you have a left twisted pelvis:

You may have some stability issues when walking which may be accompanied by achiness anywhere from the glutes down to the feet.

You may notice that when standing still your right foot ends up positioned slightly further forward than the left and will likely be more externally rotated (foot twisted outwards) whilst the left leg may ne more twisted inward. In my case i feel like my left leg as a whole is further in ao it is closer to the midline of the body and my right leg feels further away. This is because the pelvic twist causes a functional leg length discrepancy.

Your left side specifically the outside muscles like the left oblique muscle may feel tight or a bit sore due to overworking to stop you from to far forward and to your left. Your ight side might feel loose/ underworked or simply normal.

The upper back then has to compensate so that your not turned to the left and are facing forward. It does this by twisting to the right in opposition to the pelvis. This can make left chest and shoulder muscles tight and right upper back and trap muscles tight.

You may feel like the pressure on your butt is uneven when sitting down and that your left butt bone feels lower down than your right.

You may get aches and pain in your lower back but you will almost certainly feel like your lower back is tight and stiff. Like me you may look into the issue and the first things that seem relevant are some form of pelvic tilt but the recommendations or exercises for the corrisponding conditions seem to only help a little or not help at all.
You may feel like your left arm is easier to position deeper onto your desk and is more comfortable than the right arm when angled inwards towards you.

Right arm feels less comfortable further onto the desk possibly making the arm to desk contact feel unstable and leaving you feeling like you should be able to have your arm deeper on the desk but its not comfortable or maintainable.


Here are a few tests that might help if you think you do have a pelvic torsion after reading this.

Can you twist your entire torso at the waist further and comparably more easily to the left than to the right.

Is it easier to shift your weight onto the outside of your left hip than it is to the right. (Leg goes in hip goes out whilst standing relatively straight up)

Do you feel like you put more weight onto your left leg. This may be acompanied by either wrapping the right calf over the left shin like i do or some other right leg alignment that effectively lowers the weight put on the right leg further down by effectively shortening the legs length.

Love your videos btw.
