@@pepefrog7456 yeah. It's what I meant. You put into words much better. Brain hack I mean finding mindset tricks and alternate training methods and thinking to keep motivated and disciplined then you get lazy and lose hope.
Hell yeah man I'm glad! Aim training is definitely satisfying and fun! Don't forget to train the actual game that you want to improve at as well. Unless your goal is to just do aim training. Either way good luck!
Man this really should be pinned somewhere in the voltaic discord, the text tutorials are nice but it's so hard to follow without visuals. A year later and still a banger video, thank you!
@@Micyek hey man I appreciate it! Yeah it’s so much easier to visually show these steps. I feel like that’s what most gamers want is to have something simple to follow!
Hey man i know in retrospect this sounds silly but i have been spending my time just grinding out the benchamarks on repeat i wasnt aware there playlists for each rank with insights Appreciate this a lot
Of course! Glad you found use from the video. Yeah there are many routines out there. If you want to improve and stick with it for awhile, you're probably going to go through many routines. Especially once you get better and better you have to find more creative ways to push yourself!
Great vid! thank you !❤ I’m still curious about how do i set my sensitivity. I play both Valorant and Apex and it’s different sens so idk which sens should iuse or do i have to find new sens that i feel comfortable just for KovaaK’s👀
@@koonsuntanatrakool thank you ! I can tell you that sensitivity does not matter. In fact, I used to train with a sensitivity randomizer. In the beginning I would struggle with really low sensitivity, and really high sensitivity, but then all of a sudden I started to be consistent on both. I even started to get personal bests on random sensitivities. So just use whichever sense. And if you randomize it, you will actually train both the wrist portion of aiming and arm portion. So I think it’ll be beneficial
Yeah of course. If that's what suits you. At the end of the day, this is one routine. Everyone has different time available to put into aim training. Just take the time to construct a little schedule, and then just perform on that schedule. You can test out different times and see what works best for you!
yeah i kinda ran into a very awkward spot with the voltaic benchmarks. i was doing Tammas' Routine Addendum for like 3 months maybe a bit more and i got to intermediate but i wanted to actually take my aim training serious so i started doing Voltaic and i was getting silver scores and barely gold scores. So i wasted my time doing that lol. been doing Voltaic Gold fundamental routine for maybe 2 weeks now and i just got all gold scores on the benchmarks so i started doing the intermediate benchmarks and i was very close to getting the score requirements for platinum. which was frustrating cause that means im unranked in intermediate and i was ready to move on to plat. being stuck on gold was a bit annoying. went to reddit and reddit said i should either stay on gold till i get plat rank or just move on to plat as long as its not too hard for me. Is there any advice for what i should do? do i just say fk it and stay on plat since i believe its not too hard or me or should i just continue to stay on gold till i get plat rank?
I would recommend warming up a bit or just trying each scenario a couple times. If you’re just starting out, these first scores won’t really matter. If you practice enough, you’re going to blow these initial scores out of the water. So don’t over complicate it. I would say, warm up so you’re not completely cold, then go through the benchmarks twice each as a good starting point. Remember, you will most likely improve these scores very quickly especially if you’ve never done aim training. It’s more of just to see where you’re at currently and give you a structure to follow. Also this improves the whole aiming experience and makes it so that you can see your progression in a more gamified way.
Honestly, training all 3 of the main aiming types will help. They are all very fundamental to aiming in general. If you want to have solid aim you want to train all. If the time to kill is high, then tracking is important. If you see a lot of players consistently at once, switching is important. If time to kill is low then clicking is important. That’s like a general guideline. I honestly haven’t played pubg in years so I don’t remember how fast the time to kill is. But one things for sure is since you’re not in the action as much in a battle royal, aim training will help you iron out your weaknesses faster.
@@theangelvee Thanks for the detailed answer, yeah some people claim that your aim cannot be trained with this game since it has huge recoil, its high kill time, once your crosshair is on the target basically you aim down to compensate for the recoil and get a kill. So its sort of like clicking but once clicked, aiming down. Only sometimes do you get driven by so I can keep tracking there as well. I also like to play kovaak so its a win win, already seeing some improvements!
@@gwnbw that’s awesome! In that case you’re going to see a lot of value in practice your recoil patterns. I’m not sure if it’s predictable recoil like CSGO or RNG, but you can at least get a feel for your favorite guns and practice the recoil. But you still need to be aiming in the right spot anyways so aim training definitely helps. Aim training can never substitute game sense and game mechanics though. So if you lack any game specific mechanics, those definitely have to be trained and targeted in game
See I wonder if I been doing this wrong. I am gold complete in both high scores and average with 500 energy on both so I assumed I’m supposed to be doing Platinum training to practice to get platinum benchmarks. Just like you I have about 4-5 scores Platinum as well
I think that should be fine! That’s what I did. If you hit gold complete then it’s time for a new challenge so going to platinum training will be better
Thank you! I’m tied between “Homogenic” and “Post” I normally listen to her popular songs not necessarily her albums. But those have the most classic songs that got me into her
I will add as well, I saw an interview years ago where Travis Scott said he listened to Bjork, I checked her out, and was super into it! Great artist. Another Icelandic singler that I like it “Ane Brun” . I love her album “A Temporary Dive”
Nice! I think my fav albums by her so far are Debut and Homogenic, but they're all so good so its hard to choose lol. I love listening to her live performances. My favs are her MTV Unplugged and Cambridge 1998 shows.
@@solusxj yeah the improvements start to slow down. Now your reaching the point where you have to really optimize your technique and try to optimize every second to squeeze as much points as possible
I believe this takes the average out of your last 5 or 10 scores. So it shows you what your scores you get on average on a specific scenario. I like to look for high score, but if you want a real challenge you can test your averages although I could never get their automatic score updater script to work.
Just keeping pushing my man. Using Kovaaks for a person who's new to KnM is actually so good. If you consistently train every day, you will improve so much quicker than someone just grinding the game. Just train all of your aim types. It's probably going to feel impossible at first, but your brain will adapt if you train every day.
@@theangelvee appreciate the vote of confidence man, I'll see if I can keep you updated through the comments section. Thanks again for the introductions to Voltaic 🙏😎
@@BlazingJacob yeah man of course! Don’t forget to play your main game. If you notice that a certain part of your aim is weaker than others, make sure you spend extra time training those weaknesses. Like for xdefiant, switching and reactive tracking are the main skill sets to train. But you still need to train up all of the skills because they are all fundamental to your mouse control.
It does happen. It means you probably have some strengths in some areas and weaknesses in others. It’s completely up to you, but you could spend a disproportionate amount of time on the other scenarios. You can still train your master scenarios, but focus harder on the ones that are more difficult for you. So for example if you spend 20 minutes on each scenario (hypothetical number), then when you get to your master scenarios, maybe spend like 5 minutes to keep them solid, but spend more time on the others. That all depends if your goal is to be more well rounded. But if you want to just be a beast tracker then you can train them too. Depends on your goals!
I am very well aware of that! Couldn’t get the script to work on my computer so all the work it would take to figure out what the issue was, wasn’t worth the time that I could just type it out with my fingers.
You might be in the Aim Labs section. Make sure that if you're doing Kovaaks you go to the Kovaaks section, and there should be a share code under everything Kovaaks related. If you go to the resources tab in their discord it will tell you which resources are Kovaaks and which are Aim Labs
Trust me, if you train every day, you will blow past iron fast. The beginning is just getting used to doing the aim training consistently! This is the fun part, you start seeing a lot of improvement.
@@theangelvee I know. I'm not new to learning skills. I'm well aware of mindset mind hacks. There been plenty other areas that I ended up being one of the best in gaming and in my work force as well. I just haven't taken in improving my aim seriously yet
@@OldSchoolL4D-zb2kt Awesome you already know how it goes. Since you know how to learn, then this should be really simple. Only limiting factor is how much time/energy you want to invest.
ALot of people get confused and grind the benchmarks and wonder why their progress is so slow... play the fundamentals! use the benchmarks to check if you can level up
Link the fundamentals then
Boring. Benchmarks are the fun way.
People don't develop good mindset and brain hack. Which can be a hack in life too. You train and focus on consistency and not your high score
@@OldSchoolL4D-zb2kti focus on trying to have a consistent average and raising the bottom of my skill ceiling. wdym by brain hack?

Always move towards what is more uncomfortable. if you feel like things are too easy, then you won't improve as fast.
Wait so when it comes to benchmarking, do I only do each routine once?
I would recommend warming up a bit or just trying each scenario a couple times.
If you’re just starting out, these first scores won’t really matter. If you practice enough, you’re going to blow these initial scores out of the water. So don’t over complicate it.

Hey nice video! What scenarios would be important for a game like PUBG (for the most?) its a bit slower than Overwatch
