@vorkot1

@@Bluff_Prime-mp1xo it can be a tad difficult to get into, but you pick up on it after a while. As the video suggested: after you do the flick, just let the motion of the flick play out by itself and let the friction of the mousepad do the stopping for you. That way you will smoothly decelerate towards the target with a bit of practise. Do note that if you end up overflicking a lot, you are either pushing your flickspeed too hard or decelerate/release your tension too late. Noticed that it usually is the former reason. Releasing that tension and slightly reducing my flickspeed to something more controllable did wonders for my technique, and I am now naturally getting faster by refining my approach, rather than brute forcing that speed physically like I did before which caused me so many issues and inconsistencies. Broke through so many plateaus.

@pinguefy

i think viscose intends to make a deep dive into tension video at some point! i don't necessarily agree that it was under explained though, here are the key points: 1) tense aim is fast but inflexible and often unsmooth 2) relaxed aim is flexible but slow 3) friction is a force we can learn to control to help stop our mouse by using tension to start the flick, we can generate a great deal of speed. but if we release the tension and relax the aiming arm mid-flick, we can end the flick with our arm relaxed and ready to track or make other adjustments post-flick. we can use very little force to stop the mouse by utilizing the friction of the pad, allowing us to release quite a lot of tension during the flick. by doing this, we can get the positives of the first two key points while avoiding the negatives. for learning how to use it, i think it's good to have the goal of ending the flick with less tension than you start with in a practice environment as a way to start!

You know @voltaic back in my early days of gaming, I'm 51 now, so back in my 20s, so back around 2007... Before I actually started using a regular mouse, one that you use on a mouse pad, I use to use the Logitech Trackman Thumbball mouse. And I played many many many hours of Unreal Tournament, UT99 and UT3 with this Trackman. Now one of the benefits of this mouse comes down to one of the examples you were talking about. Lifting the mouse off the pad to stop tracking. Of course in this case you just stopped the trackball and continued your movement with your character. By using the movement of your character your crosshair could remain locked in position with no movement till you needed to flick to the next target. I was pretty good at it. Now I changed to a regular mouse not seeing that I had acquired a skill that most gamers didn't use. And I lost that skill. And I hate that I lost it because it's harder to do that lift off of the mouse to stop tracking for flicks. I play bf4 if you're wondering. So I went online to see if I could find the same Trackman mouse and couldn't find it, or if I did it was 200.00 US dollars when you used to could have picked it up at Walmart under 50 bucks. Tried a knock off of the trackman with thumb ball and it wasn't the same. I guess the moral of the story is....Man I miss my Logitech Trackman. Would really like to get that skill back but with a regular mouse. And it's much harder than it seems. And let's face it, at 51 I have to double my reflexes to do what a 20 year old does. Right now I play 800dpi and 29" for a 360, 73.6cm. I want that flick back. Lol. Any advice? And thanks for your very understanding depth breakdown. Cheers....Fatal.
@pinguefy
17 күн бұрын
i have a few thoughts, but this is quite an odd problem haha. the first is your sensitivity. the average sens of exceptional bf4 aimers is probably around 30 cm. while the lower sens can help with the fine tracking, it's a game that is much more about big gross movements and the agility a higher sens provides you is preferable, especially if you intend to be performing flicks. i don't think you have to go that high, but something like 40-50cm will make any sort of fast movement less of an effortful task, and can start to let you engage and develop other muscle groups more equally, instead of loading almost all of the aiming task on your arm. the second is peripherals. namely, a balanced control pad can go a long way for helping to aid you with flick consistency. one that provides enough friction to let you start pushing higher flick speeds without becoming unstable. some pads i'd recommend are the zero soft and freefall sv! the balanced aspect is fairly important too, because mousepads with extremely high static friction can make the fine motions a lot harder rendering a higher sensitivity more unwieldy than it needs to be. if you are keen on this route, i can ask a few more questions and guide you to a better fit in terms of mousepad. third is to adopt a style that makes it easier to make the sensor stop tracking. there's a style some very strong mechanical players have utilized where they set their liftoff distance to high, curl their fingers under the mouse, and use their fingers as mouse skates the entire time. the reason for doing this is that it gives you a very fine control over the sensor height, and can stop the sensor from tracking much more easily than the way i demonstrated at 4:40. scrublel has a guide on this called "How to Aim Like ScrubLEL/wAFF/Relaaa/Area" that might be useful if you're interested in this style! the last idea i have is to return to the trackball. there's an overwatch player named Zerggy who reached a pretty high level of overwatch on mechanically demanding characters, and had solid aim to boot. all while using a kensington trackball! if it's a style that you really adore, i don't see why you should abandon that for the chance of reaching a higher level of mechanical excellence. the limiting factor will definitely the time put in and practice before the input method, especially with that player proving it can compete!

Where do you keep your eyes focused while tracking and flicking in games? Does focusing too intently on the target you are tracking cause too much tunnel vision? When flicking, the center image of your screen changes immediately to the location you flicked to, how do you sync your eyes to quickly adjust to this sudden change in order to refocus? (How does this impact the action of micro-adjusting?)

I've never really thought about how I flick before, if I were to say what I do it's mostly just pulling my mouse in the opposite direction of travel until it stops. on a low friction glass pad it took about 2 weeks to fully adjust mostly because it was much easier to accidentally stop a flick and then end up pulling my crosshair back too much in the other direction I keep my arm very relaxed throughout (except to start a flick) mostly because if I don't I'll more quickly develop joint pain since I have chronic issues with my shoulders, elbows and wrists
@Cedric1234_
17 күн бұрын
A big component people won’t realize thats very important for release tension flicking (I’ve always heard it called burst since all your power comes at the start and your hand ends up calm at the end) is mouse weight. People will naturally develop a flick that works for them, and very possibly, their current system is reasonable. If your mouse is too light , it straight up won’t work without adjustment. Try flicking with nothing in your hand. For my hand size, I must apply a counter force at some point. Theres also a noticeable difference for large flicks going left vs right. The muscles you’re using arent exactly mirrored. You’re also holding your mouse a certain way. For right handers, left flicks tend to be better for example. Frequency and sensitivty also will very much change tour method. Compare a counterstrike player to a overwatch tracer main. I wouldnt be suprised if tracer’s sensitivty was literally 20x higher. Longer flicks, and especially turning, will now use different mechanics of the body. Tracer probably wants to be only using finger/wrist to aim and elbow to 180, cs players tend to incorporate shoulder significantly more to turn around and elbow to aim. Watch players right shoulders when playing.

This is something ive had to learn the hard way when becoming a top target switcher. I always used glass pads, thinking that they would increase the speed of my target switching. Little did I know, the faster you get, the more stopping power you need from the mouse pad. The faster the mouse can stop, the sooner you can relax your aiming arm and begin tracking or micro adjusting. Yes you can have good stopping power on a glass pad with practice but ive found once you reach a certain level of speed of flicking, the glass end up hindering your aim, especially if you play around 30 to 50cm and to wider flicks. It becomes less of an issue the lower the cm on a glass pad.

Oddly enough the way I personally flicked is similar in a way to the principle of counter strafing, if I flicked right I would at the last moment activate the muscles that would move my mouse to the left for a brief moment to "neutralize" my momentum while keeping a regular amount to low amount of tension. It's always how I've flicked my mouse and also to a certain extent my target switching.

For flicks and in general I really think the finger skate technique struth uses is very interesting. With it you always have the mouse lifted of the pad by having your fingers pinched under the mouse. This way you always need to control your friction by control the pressure you apply to the pad and you can always use the technique to stop a flick by lifting the sensor with minimal downtime because you're always riding the line of the lift of distance anyway. However I imagine it takes a lot of practice to learn this unique technique and you might sacrifice other parts of your aim.
@pinguefy

there are some very good aimers like relaa and scrublel who got rly good with something similar, but it's quite niche. plus, varying the amount of finger contact on the pad to control friction or only using the mouse lift as a tool in your arsenal is more well rounded imo!
@tenebrismeam5784

okay so, how about you use your fingers not just to create extra friction when placing them down on the mouse pad to stop the mouse, but place them down for micro flicks and micro adjustments as a form of "anker" in the last splitsecond of the flick you basically move your mouse only with your fingers, with the pinkie and ring finger holding the hand in place and the rest of them moving the mouse

I feel like timing of the stop is much more important that the technique you do it with. Even if you use max tension, realistically you have to hit at most 5 targets in game and then you rest. Not like in ts scenario where you hit 100+
@pinguefy
21 күн бұрын
the technique is like a layer beneath the timing. like you can talk about technique for a tennis serve and what can lead to the desired spin and power without acknowledging that you have to hit the ball and get it on the court. yeah, stopping on the target is the goal of all of these techniques but what happens after and how consistently you can do that is what we're talking about here. for the number of targets thing, i agree in principle, but the additional stamina you get from using less tension is more of a secondary benefit to the post-flick flexibility in the case of having to readjust or track after a flick.
@VoltaicAim
21 күн бұрын
Overtensing generally just makes your aim less consistent, so even with good timing you could still miss. it's also just harder to keep track of where your crosshair is, and you may need to slow down to re-adjust more. That could lead to your opponent being able to get a shot of before you (which is lethal in TacFPS games and other low-ttk shooters like CoD). TS scenarios being 100+ targets is indeed a bit more stamina bound, but it doesn't takeaway that from the value of practice you get in a short amount of time. If you are able to remain calm and relatively relaxed when aiming during a longer period of time, it'll also be easier for you to be more consistent on the max 5 targets you would face in-game.

hi thanku! *Mice* - me: modded op1we, hsk pro - rileycs: op18k - viscose: op1we, op18k - misscolourz: op1we, beastx - mattyow: gpx/gpx2 - irrpa: op18k - minigod: htx 4k *Grip* - i use a fingertip grip, similar to claw in style but no palm contact. - viscose uses a claw grip but still utilizes fingertips in aiming - irrpa uses fingertip - both misscolourz/riley are on claw. idk about anyone else. *Mousepads* - i use the artisan shidenkai xsoft for all the footage in this video. - rileycs: artisan type99 mid, hien mid, zero mid - viscose: zero soft, shidenkai xsoft - misscolourz: freefall sv 2, zero soft - mattyow: raiden mid - irrpa: skypad 4.0 for fast flicking it depends a lot on your sens and game of choice imo. i find flicking fast on medium-lower sensitivities much easier on control pads, but the freedom of fine motions that fast pads have is rly nice for higher sensitivities. if you don't know where to start, i think something balanced like a zero would be a good pick!

I've never really thought about it too much but I guess the way I do it is I have a very relaxed grip on my mouse with it being up against my palm with my ring and index finger laying flat slightly extending past the edge of my mouse then I have the edge of my thumb touching the mouse pad as well as the tips of my ring and pinky fingers for the tactile feedback and slowing power via friction I also tend to use a higher sens 0.55 at 800dpi in Valorant and am a wrist aimer so rest the base of my palm on the mouse pad and use it as a pivot point whether this is right or wrong idk but just feels the most natural to me I tend to deal with a lot of joint pain not just in my wrists but overall and have before I even got into fps games on the computer and this way just seems to cause the least pain for me

I just use a cloth pad with higher static friction. I bought into the artisan hype and can never have confident aim because their pads are lower static friction.

im trying to transition over to the tension release style of flicking/aiming but im never sure when im practicing if im actually using it, especially when i end up defaulting back to tensing up my hand and forearm. if anyone knows any more exercises or tips/tricks that help with developing the tension release flick technique, please lmk

it's very tricky to brute force a total change of technique, especially when you are aiming under pressure. just be aware that you want to be less tense while aiming generally, especially at the end of flicks, and you will start to build those habits over time. that said, focused practice while building familiarity with the technique is very important. i liked using precise static ts as a starting point; it forced me to be very conscious of my flick speed and be ready to microadjust if i missed a flick. pokeball scenarios can help isolate the flick as well. as mentioned in the video, evasive switching is also a very intuitive way to learn the tension release once you get the fundamental motion down, as failure to remain relaxed will lead to a very obvious start-stop between when the flick ends and when tracking begins. aim for fluidity! you don't have to be 100% relaxed by the end of a flick, but ending with less tension than you start with is the goal. at that point you'd probably want to start incorporating ingame exercises and situations, to start developing comfort with the technique while moving and under more pressure. dm, pubs, 1v1s etc. with a distinct focus on your technique. do enough of this practice and it'll start to become more natural and require less and less active thought!

Is it practical to try this "tension release" method on a glass pad with such limited stopping power?
@pinguefy
20 күн бұрын
the amount of tension you're able to release is lower but striving to end with less tension than you start will still go a long way for post-flick fluidity. for harder stops, i do think it's likely you'll have to use mid-high sens or finger drag though, especially if you're on the faster end of glass pads.

yeah talking about technique in this lens is like powerlifters talking about technique: it can help you think about the task differently, engage different muscle groups, and potentially let you reach new heights. but before technique matters, you need the requisite strength to actually perform the task, and the only way to get that is a lot of practice and training! you can try and gamify your practice on aim trainers by using playlists, vdim, or generally using benchmarks to see your progression over time. or maybe decide aim training is not for you and look to play dm or aim maps in games. or if that still doesn't catch your interest, just playing the game with the intent of improving mechanics rather than winning every game will go a long way!
