On Bounce 180 makes sense to click the most viable targets because will help a lot in game scenarios where you prioritise the easiest enemy to hit instead of the most challenging
Thanks, that means a lot. As you get older, more irl stuff pops up unfortunately! But I do love making the content, it is very satisfying and uses my creative brain!
I've been getting into voltaic benchmarks and fundamental training lately. Started not even hitting plat but getting past novice with most perfect scores in energy. Now I'm 568/600 for diamond complete, feel really close just cause I'm still able to beat my scores if I try for an hour, and I can usually keep my scores around where I did yesterday. Putting a ton of time into this because I don't really like how Overwatch is going, my past game I played flex DPS on, and Valorant, a new game I enjoy is just really toxic so I'm not so sure yet. Feels great to play both just for a fun break from aim training tho.
On a more serious note, we love your content and fully understand that it takes time to make videos with this level of quality. Take care, I hope all of your IRL stuff is fixed and well, and I'll be (patiently) waiting for your next video!
yep, it's going to be 12 videos total for the complete playlist, 1 of the actual 'long form' content then one follow-up with commentary. So make sure to get your feedback in after each video if you want me to review/respond to your comment ;)
if it's shaky _all_ the time then I would prioritize doing some smoothness scens...things like smoothbot, tamts, extra smoothsphere, pgti, smooth track vert
@@finity9316 that's not uncommon because your wrist needs to break more moving to the right, just means your wrist aim needs work. i would spend more time not resetting mouse when your crosshair needs to keep pushing right and it'll improve over time
@@finity9316 there's no set duration, weekly's a good starting point when you're starting out. it's mostly to help with motivation/reward and help determine what your focus areas should be. so whenever you need that, you can bench.
i'm not a physician but i would definitely start stretching daily, and not aggravate the problem, so if there is pain while using your mouse you should take a break until there isn't
cool! i would probably just do it here on YT since it's all integrated and then I can easily turn the VOD from the discussion into a permanent video :P
Hi Ridd! I'm planning on making a video about the youtubers, techniques and playlists that helped me to get voltaic diamond (I have full diamond on the clicking and tracking scens so only target switching to go yaaay) so I was wondering if it would be ok to use some clips of your videos, and specially if you wouldn't mind me linking your github to the kovaaks playlists. Of course I would give you full credit on the description and I would say the github is yours in the video itself. I hope you are well and I'll be waiting for your answer, take care!
absolutely, this content is completely free to share, there's some restrictions with how TH-cam handles copyright so just be careful about that but otherwise it's super open-ended.
@@RiddBTW I'm not going to post the link because I think that crosses the "spam" line. But I just uploaded this video and I mention you a couple of times here and there. I really see you as one of my aiming mentors, so if you have the time I would be extremely grateful if you could watch it. Still waiting on the target switching video!
Hey Ridd I wanted to ask a question that I hope is okay. Really like the vibe of this community and thoroughly enjoy every single video of yours ( make sure I watch one every night before bed and has inspired me to buy kovaaks and start playing it tomorrow) My question to put into perspective is that I've been using 173cm/360 800DPI 0.3 for about 9 months in CSGO. The reason is because I feel better coordination with my arm, shoulder and forearm more than my wrist which I feel is tight and shaky. I micro adjust with fingers and perhaps 15degress of wrist max, everything else is forearm elbow and shoulder only ever used extended pads and keep full elbow on the table. I like this in CSGO as I feel best control and precision, in Apex, quake and diabotical I increase my Sens to 130cm/360 to have faster 180's and reactive aim. However I have seen top aimers (soar hollow, vf Serious, clawz, s1mple) use higher sens and many experts like aimer7 recommend(20-40cm) or atleast a realistic low one like 60cm. So my question is, would I benefit from using or atleast trying a higher sensitivity? My only desire is to constantly improve and grow as an fps player and would like to know your thoughts and advice on what to do. Like most people I attached to something that has given me good performances but I'll switching or atleast practicing something different would stand to benefit me, or do I just do aim training with my current sensitivity and work on the scenarios I'm weak at with it. In game my best situations are medium and long range microflicks and precise tracking at mid to long range. However I'm weak at vertical tracking and close range fast flicks to an erratically moving enemy. I apologize for asking something so long and highly specific, I just truly want to improve and value your insights on these aiming related topics. Much love from South Africa ❤
Thanks for all the positive feedback. And yes I think that's a pretty low sens to realistically play with...especially games like Apex with a lot of reactive tracking up close and movement, it becomes pretty difficult to take advantage of all the FPS mechanics with such a low sens. I would try something like 60cm at least...and just get used to the idea of playing a higher sens where it's needed, and a lower sens where it's needed. Treating it more like a tool that you change based on how you feel and what the game demands.
This might be a little late so you might not read this response. I have 3.4k hours in csgo and was in FPL-C about a year ago. I also have around 200 hours in kovaak's so I hope you don't completely ignore my advice. 0.3 sens @ 800 dpi in csgo is a extremely low sensitivity. Because of the way the source engine works you have an edpi of 240. I would strongly recommend increasing your sensitivity to at least 0.5 if not 0.55 or 0.6 because this sensitivity is so low that not even professional players use it. The best aimers in csgo that use low sens (Niko, Twistzz, Michu, Tabsen) all play around 400-600 edpi. I also have concerns because playing many hours a day on that low sensitivity can lead to health problems. Anyway I hope you read this and at least listen to my advice good luck.
I'm one of those weidos that has better scores in dynamic and reactive than everything else lol. I got diamond complete on dynamic and some reactive score really close to it, but otherwise I'm platinum complete lol.
I think people shouldn't sleep on target switching as well, I recently focused on target switching and pretty much neglected click timing because I was grinding the TS plat benchmarks, and when I got plat on them, decided to try CT benchmarks just for fun and was surprised bec nearly got diamond in just a few runs lol also at 7:40 while I do agree that we don't always have the most viable targets all the time but for me, choosing to go for viable targets help develop peripheral vision, awareness, speed etc and decision making in general, After doing dynamic clicking and dynamic TS (B180 T Voltaire Easy) I noticed I've been more "aware" and my eyes are quicker and can account for more things and then decide to focus on a target whenever I play valorant
check my comment under Bruce Wayne, you can definitely get good dynamic scores with a slower more methodical style and constantly intercepting bot movement vs. the fast flick + microcorrect you need for static.
@@RiddBTW I checked the comment but I am diamond complete in dynamics, so it's not only pasu, yet I am Plat complete in static, I think I have to be patient and keep swallowing those bard pills
who gave you permission to do real life things?? >:( all jokes aside, hope everything's good mane Regarding pasu, your last video really helped, and the routines. I can now hit high 70s in 1w5targets_pasu so I know I'm not too far off from hitting diamond in pasu Voltaic easy.
awesome! ochclick is honestly one of my fave scens, maybe of all time, but it really helps with mouse control and it's excellent for improving at dynamic
it's in my backlog, it's just not high up...i really want to grind this series out then i can focus on other things like accel, tierlists, all the fun stuff

@@RiddBTW of course man! you have helped me a lot in my aim journey, and we gotta take care of eachother in the aiming community
finally another ridd's video, been waiting for it so long.Btw u do really is a good coach
Are you planning on doing a commentary for each video? I really love these vids give a lot of insight!

Yayy best aim videos on youtube by far
thanks so much
I love the painting in the background
i finally found a reason to make him visible :D
Well daamn that new setup is criiiiiisp. Make more videos so I can watch them at work damn it!
Doesn't matter how long it takes to upload a video , Its always Quality over Quantity.
my dynamic clicking has improved drastically but my aim is still super shaky. how do I fix this?
if it's shaky _all_ the time then I would prioritize doing some smoothness scens...things like smoothbot, tamts, extra smoothsphere, pgti, smooth track vert
@@RiddBTW what if I get shakiness only when I aim to my right
@@finity9316 that's not uncommon because your wrist needs to break more moving to the right, just means your wrist aim needs work. i would spend more time not resetting mouse when your crosshair needs to keep pushing right and it'll improve over time
@@RiddBTW ok thanks doc and when do you recommend to do a benchmark weekly as I just started at bronze level ?

Another good vid! Thanks for sharing your expertise…….
Ridd is too underrated man. Glad I found you and got to learn from aimer Jesus himself
PLEASE STREAM AGAIN
I have a question, i feel like my thumb and my mouse finger feels a bit sore. How long should i take a break to prevent it to get worse.
i'm not a physician but i would definitely start stretching daily, and not aggravate the problem, so if there is pain while using your mouse you should take a break until there isn't
Would love to stop by for a live discussion on twitch if you choose to do that.

Will we see you stream some time? Love the content!
i think so ^_^
im curious, how many hours you have in aim trainers
Tough to say because I have a ton of afk hours in Kovaaks, but I would guess around 350-400.
don't look at my monkey 👀🐒
Reactive tracking is the hardest? Why is it my best? 😭
hehe for a lot of people that can be the case but it's pretty rare, depends on the types of games you're used to
what do u thing of aimlab?
it's getting better...I really liked the integrated Voltaic benchmarks they introduced recently, it's still super clunky to find scens tho
