The real reason your aim is still terrible

Everyone is using AimLab and other aim trainers the wrong way. If you really want GODLIKE aim you need to rethink how you are practicing.

To be fair, the Valorant Combine and other tools in AimLab are very useful if you use them in the right way. I try to explain the correct way to play these games in this video.

There exists a saying in real 3 gun sport shooting that states, “slow is accurate, and accurate is fast”. Another more common way of putting it is “speed is fine, accuracy is final”.

Realized that accuracy and consistency come before speed during my iron days when i thought to myself "just doing 1 accurate tap kills faster than whiffing a whole spray"

My dad taught me something like this with throwing footballs. Except, it wasn't to do with speed VS accuracy, it was distance VS accuracy. It still applies here: who cares if you throw the ball far if nobody can catch it? Who cares if you can flick really fast when all your shots miss?

This video is absolutely spot-on. I basically made a custom playlist and played exactly as described. Over about a year of practice I went from somewhere in mid emerald to Masters 4, and I went from an inflated plat player in my fps of choice to a multi-season diamond player.

It makes sense if you think of how your brain actually learns. Your brain learns by building pathways. If you slowly train your brain to build a pathway and then reinforce the correct pathway you will eventually do it quickly and effortlessly. This is how your brain learns anything and everything.

If you tend to jump from target to target in non-straight movements when aiming instead of straight line movements, I recommend the Aimlab exercise drawing lines. That can help a lot too, because I often see people jumping from target to target in weird circular motions, which takes a lot longer than just making a straight movement to the target.

When I was in Tae Kwon Do we used to say "Skill first, speed later" and then in the military we used to say "Slow is smooth, smooth is fast, fast without smooth is out of control" so be smooth.

I admittedly take it personally when aimlab tells me I suck, so I overtry. I'm gonna try to slow it down a bit and focus on the precision for now.

[Zenithpwr]

using raw speed alone i was able to reach around 120k on gridshot with only around 85-88% accuracy, so for the last month and a half i decided quit that and go slow enough to where i could consistently hit 90+ accuracy, and was able to make my aim way more consistent and stable and reach 130k with 93% accuracy, even in game i have noticed comparing clips of before and after my aim is much more well thought out where as before i would just flick and have to adjust. in other words doing this i learned how to stop flicking and start AIMING

I had to come back to this video to leave this comment as I think it is just brilliant. This advice is so simple but clearly beneficial. I'm an old (for gaming) man with a relatively poor aim trying to improve. I took your advice, and for a few days in aim trainers, I focused on landing more shots, missing less, and gave permission to myself to have worse scores. What happened pretty quick - while my scores dropped for a moment, it was just a moment... I quickly started beating my previous scores while having better accuracy. Great advice. Thanks for this video.

Yes, I'm a guitarist and this is true, to my guitar playing at least. I've been applying a metronome to my gridshot recently. My goal is to atleast have 90% at a certain tempo and maintain it for 3 days or a week then I increase the tempo.

[nicethaddy]

gridshot is ironically the most used and also one of the most useless tasks in all of aim labs. It's basically just a pissing contest

[waaar]

personally when i used to grind aim lab for val, i focused more on tracking tasks which i used to struggle a lot with before aim training, and i also took sixshot much more seriously than gridshot as it encourages you to take ur time with the much smaller targets

[hghg-jvdp]

Bardpill method: you flick on the direction of the target, underflicking is advised and then you micro-adjust your crosshair to it. You must not miss more than 5 times in a run. Its slow at first but you will see a really fast improvement on your flicks. I was getting constant 86k on sixshot and a week after this method i now can easily surpass 110k sixshot score.
When playing with a metronome its better to flick last second so that you dont make slow movements as that is not a realistic way youd flick an enemy.

[larsaerts]

This actually was a great reminder that accuracy is more important than speed and with this I managed to beat my highscore, which is now 101948.

I am so glad I came across this video because what you said actually made sense to me and then I understood I what I need to do to improve my aim and to just go really fast! Thank you so much for bringing this point up! We all really appreciate it, man! Definetly subscribing now!

[wolfnx]

This is really good advice I’m glad I heard! I’ve been getting back into Titanfall 2 lately and god knows with how fast everyone is you need good aim, and I was training the wrong reflexes in aim lab! Thanks
