I apologise if what i commented was misunderstood or unclear, i meant it as a joke - i see people saying it a lot. I know he's iddqd's editor and he commented that because some people dont read the description. I just meant it as a joke.
My dude you have no idea, I've been practicing this for almost an hour a day since you gave these out and my Soldier/Tracer plays have been so much better, thank you so much
I'm glad I came around to this video, I'm a McCree main, I've always wanted to find ways to practice and improve, glad to find out new ways, hopefully this stuff helps me regain my Diamond tier ranking that I lost because I don't want to be a D.va one trick
Tried this on console for like 2 hours and developed a muscle memory which improved my aim for a large number of characters.... This video has inspired me to make a guide on tracking with Soilder 76, Tracer, Zarya, Sombra+
I just listened to your advices and in the pre-diamond match on Horizon took Tracer in overtime (that decision helped my team to win) and Soldier in defence (normally I play tank, but happens). Guess your tips helped me to get my first diamond :> Thank you, man!
This is probably if not definitely the best “training video” I’ve ever seen on any game ever. Thankyou for making this, id also like to say your really good mate 👍
IDDQD ... hi... i just want to let you know that all of your video help me a lot... i am a 76 main and i play very well in both quick play and competitive mode. A lot of time i follow ur tricks and tips to eliminate enemies n sometime i snipe them with helix (tracer mostly). Thanks
lol i didnt think 1:33 was going to be THAT loud.. thx for warning i guess. I didn't know the heal concept with soldier and the fact you had to jump to get the quick scope animation for ana (unless that was a mistake when you said that). Thanks. I always thought pros have been using reduce buffering ON and 75% render scale - both for input lag purposes.
I practiced body shots only on mccree, and that helped me improve. Once the flicking technique is second nature, then you can work on hitting the head.
Khaled x I'm not iddqd but I can give you some helpful tips nontheless: Perform unpredictable adad movements and crouch if you feel like it. NEVER jump during a 1v1. It will make your movement predictable and in turn make you way easier to hit (except for Genji). Keep track of your opponents cooldowns and try to bait crucial abilities like McCrees flashbang. Know when you can take a fight and when to engage/disengage
Thanks for the guide man Could you please give me tips on how sensitivity works. I really appreciate it if u give us a little bit info on how high is your mouse sensitivity :)
Xyrl the tip most coaches give is to try and keep your crosshairs centered on something small, like a bot's eye, and strafe left and right; adjust your mouse sensitivity up or down until you feel comfortable keeping your crosshairs on point.
David Ekstrom it’s all about preference. I can aim very precisely so my sensivity is very high. The higher you go, the harder (in general) it gets to play these 4 characters. Also, the higher sensivity you have, the faster your aim will be. Wich is very good for instance, widow vs widow. But good in general aswelI(it’s all about those miliseconds & accuracy). If you are aswell playing with high sensivity, it’s good to use straving with a/d keys and use your mouse a little bit to keep your cursor on the head.
There's only one pro player ever, that I've seen master a high sens in any game. And that's toxjq. No one else I've seen with high sens have been able to center and without movement adjustment keep it centered on randomly strafing targets. With that conclusion, unless you're some kind of supertalent, you should probably be close to 35cm/360 or lower if you want to aim well.
MSimp2k6 Add in double blinks or blink across the target (you might want to practice 180 your aim to the target) to move unpredictability but always follow your targets .
Can you cover movement in depth? highground movement while shooting? ive noticed many players strafe forward backwards on highground instead of A D strafe, can you cover a bit of that? so movement and a few tips in positioning during team fighths if u happen to be in a really bad spot when it happens.
Luka Dragovic moving towards and from the ledge when you have the high ground is better than AD because as you move further back, the enemy can see less of your character model. When you peak, you see the whole of them but they may only see your head. Also, it allows for you to dip in and out of sight at different points which forces your opponent to almost predict where you will be next.
wise guy i knew about the model and perks of highground, but ive noticed they move fast forward backward so im wondering if im making a mistake using ONLY my middle finger from W to S, it feels much slower than using 2 fingers on A and D to side strafe. forward strafing feels so slow that enemy may have the time to take an aim to your peeking head and also you can notice the speed at which IDDQD does it even in this video he can move at the same pace as he can with the side strafing. Is he using 3 fingers on WSAD or 4 ?
Luka Dragovic oh I see, that's a good point I've never noticed before. I guess it would be difficult to move your finger that quickly but then it is pro players, they're basically machines lol
" it feels much slower than using 2 fingers on A and D to side strafe" That's really bad, you shouldn't be changing directions so quickly. If you only move one pixel each way all their shots will hit if they just ignore your movement. You want to move either a head width left or right randomly (including double and sometimes triple movements in one direction). The trick with W/S strafing is to keep your finger on S (dodging is quicker than attacking) and to stand further back from the ledge so that you don't have to move as much (but you can't see as much).
Serious question. Does the DPI + Sens and rest of "calculations" REALLY matter? I mean if you can practice with your self-found sens and be good with it, will tinkering with other things help? Thanks for the tips! One thing I did always with soldier was "quad burst". Always click, click, click. very rarely or just in close proximity did pure hold-click spam.
Correct me if im wrong, isn't there a trick like if you press "Q" first then blink close to the target, there is a bigger chance that you hit the target with pulsbomb? You kinda skip the animation because you throw the bomb, and the bomb will follow you while blinking since you still have it in hand while blinking.
How did I not know that soldier ult + heal station thing, there's been so many times where I've needed to expose myself to drop a station before ulting, or had to after ulting because I got to low health.
I would love to hear some tips on Reaper. I always look for ppls inputs on how to aim with him and stuff. I find it very very hard to land point blank head shots with him. If you can give a tip that would be super cool!
Jordan for point blank head shots with reaper i tend use my movement of going left and right to position my crosshair on their head and a little mouse movement insteading of flick shots cause not all the bullets hit. another way is having your crosshair at head level and move foward at blank range while u take the shot instead of strafing to get all the shot gun bullet to land on them. (but you must be extremely close or it makes you easier to track if u move forward when theres a distance between u)
Killua Zoldyck what reaper need is only more practice and muscle memories. if you play him a lot and flick with him a lot, you will eventually could do that
Thanks..the mccree practice drill really helpful..I get 5/6 headshots in average 10 mins drill..I also add a little something..no hud in mccree drill..
I'm in bronze and I was constantly losing partly because I was placed with complete idiots and partly cause I was an idiot sometimes. But after working on my aim I'm happy to say I've climbed 100 sr in the last 2 days (really good for someone like me)
Doubt it. You can make smart plays (video related) and still lose to children with no concept of tactics simply because their aim is better. However it's tough to be proud of a 100 SR gain given that your SR moves by about 100 every time you play (depending on how many healer mains you get on your teams, lol). Though perhaps if you're in bronze you don't play that much. But the whole "partly because I was placed with complete idiots and partly cause I was an idiot" goes for any rank. If "bronze" was a typo and he meant GM would you react differently?
Any reason you got Reduce buffering Off ? Most post i've read about it says it should be on for 99% of setup. And also why caping your fps at 225 instead of 300 ? Thanks Mc Cree senpai :D
Samson T. It's a game on steam that helps reactive aiming, tracking and some cool features, see it and different types of aiming on ioStux's video "Why Ana bots only fuck up your aim" it's pretty helpful
If you want to be good at aiming in Overwatch, then it's better to practice aiming in Overwatch. Because: 1. Mouse sensitivity might not be the exact same in Aim Hero. 2. Field of View might not be the exact same. 3. Movement of the targets are not the same. 4. Your movement speed and movement acceleration might not be the same (these two things affect your aim). 5. You don't get familiar with the hitboxes in Overwatch by playing Aim Hero.
Can you give me an explanation on why he puts so many of the video settings to low, Model and effects detail don't bother fps (what I heard) and I'm just wondering why he set them low?
1:33 sound is loud so lower volume
All in order
1. How to win soldier 1v1 faster 0:35

Leonel Coutinho ummm I'm gonna take a guess that he did it because the description doesn't have the link only the time but that's all I got
White Boy Bad troll is bad.
I am his editor
I apologise if what i commented was misunderstood or unclear, i meant it as a joke - i see people saying it a lot. I know he's iddqd's editor and he commented that because some people dont read the description. I just meant it as a joke.
Your aim is fucking insane
The best discovery ever 15:18
Pietro Lo what was discovered, I dont get it?
The training bot ran away from the tracer bomb
I had a training bot try and run from my pulse bomb before ( he died anyway), and I had the same reaction he did.
tonyo lo same i had the same reaction as him XD
t h e o m n i c s h a v e a w i l l t o l i v e-
15:17 WTF LMAO why did the bot just walk away?? He's like "fuck this shit I'm out"
My dude you have no idea, I've been practicing this for almost an hour a day since you gave these out and my Soldier/Tracer plays have been so much better, thank you so much
Salamander Ruthledge That's awesome. What have you been doing specifically? And how have you improved?
This is the best guide on the internet for aim drills bar none change my F-ing mind. This drill alone got me from 1800-2600 in a season.
"you know what I mean?" - iddq 2017
I have been playing since release and peaked at 3,9k still i didnt know this, a HUGE ty to u iddqd helped me out a shit ton!!

I used to think my aim is bad, but after watching you do your practice drill, I realized I'm worse than shit.
Shyam Vasudev thats fucked up
1:33 I'm dead
FUCK that shit, instantly clicked this and I think I lost 25% of my heart function because my shit was on loud...

Absolutely loved every single one of the tips, thx m8
Thanks for the tips ❤️ I am a soldier main and I appreciate them awesome tips that I'm always searching for
Really nice video, great tips, Really hope there will be others :)
The bot avoiding the pulse bomb, I never saw that before!!!
am i the only one that laughs out loud whenever iddqd says " hello?" every now and then? lol

Albert Arriola lol
I m gonna try this tips thank You man! You are helping all of us!
Thanks my dude, it helpedme a lot with the tips, YOU ARE THE BEST
Most helpful overwatch video I have ever watched 10/10
That was very insightful. Thanks !
THIS VIDEO IS VERY HELPFUL, THE SOLDIER TRICK IS CRAZY :)
Damn thank you Iddqd ! Idk if that's me but it feels like you're nicer and nicer those weeks hahaha
ooOO this was super super helpful thanks so much!!
Thanks, really useful Andre! ♥
I practiced body shots only on mccree, and that helped me improve. Once the flicking technique is second nature, then you can work on hitting the head.
Love this. As a Soldier fan.
BEST overwatch tutorial ever
God damint iddqd its 1:00 am and u scared the shit out of me
Thanks heaps for this man!
Dude props for music!
all i see is that he is more dangerous and accurate with soldier without the ultimate than with it :P
Thanks for the vid man.
Hey IDDQD can you talk about the movement of the heros in 1 vs. 1
i mean how to move while shooting
Khaled x so to move while shooting u have to hold w or a or d and then u have to hold left click if u qre soldier :D
Khaled x Crouch spam ADAD to win
Khaled x Move unpredictably and always have some kind of cover to utilize if you need to reset the fight.
Khaled x I'm not iddqd but I can give you some helpful tips nontheless:
Perform unpredictable adad movements and crouch if you feel like it.
NEVER jump during a 1v1. It will make your movement predictable and in turn make you way easier to hit (except for Genji).
Keep track of your opponents cooldowns and try to bait crucial abilities like McCrees flashbang.
Know when you can take a fight and when to engage/disengage
I make the mistake of jumping in 1v1 unless its soldier, dunno why.
You're the best man.
Very good tips, thanks for thodes.
wow the 76 heal pod animation canceling with the ult. just wow. thank you that tip will help me get much better at 1v1.
Thanks man......for the junpscare
This man is crazy accurate Jesus christ
Very well made
+iddqdow thx for this, plz do more drills/ tips videos , thx for everything ma man, u are amazing
Nice tips, thx bro.
Ik play on console so the Tracer tip is great many people play on low sens (that blink tip works great on cleaning op Reinhardt in 1v 1
Thanks for the guide man
Could you please give me tips on how sensitivity works.
I really appreciate it if u give us a little bit info on how high is your mouse sensitivity :)
ShunDongYang People are different. just set your sensitivity thats fits you. copying someone else doesn't benefit you.
Xyrl the tip most coaches give is to try and keep your crosshairs centered on something small, like a bot's eye, and strafe left and right; adjust your mouse sensitivity up or down until you feel comfortable keeping your crosshairs on point.
Yesterday on stream he said that as a general rule 360 degrees on your screen should be from one end of your mouse pad to the other end
David Ekstrom it’s all about preference. I can aim very precisely so my sensivity is very high. The higher you go, the harder (in general) it gets to play these 4 characters. Also, the higher sensivity you have, the faster your aim will be. Wich is very good for instance, widow vs widow. But good in general aswelI(it’s all about those miliseconds & accuracy).

Is this the real iddqd's youtube :D!?
Yes
great tips! thanks!
Thank you! You are amazing! I see in your gameplay that you don't use highground as much as other players, can you comment about that?
I should have crolled some comments before watching the vid.
thanks for the free earrape
I'm curious about "moving with" the target when playing tracer. I know it makes aiming a lot easier for you, but surely it makes you more predictable?
MSimp2k6 he mentioned that, he said that you should blink to avoid the damage
MSimp2k6 Add in double blinks or blink across the target (you might want to practice 180 your aim to the target) to move unpredictability but always follow your targets .
Omg that bot at the end was bloody fucking hilarious
Bot
I pissed my pants 1:33 was not expecting that...
that genuine "WHAT???" THO
With the IDDQD blinks, i blink behind and back so quickly the DPS hasn't even looked behind him yet so he's staring dead at me 😂
Svär mannen du är fan o med kung ;p

Thanks for the tips! One thing I did always with soldier was "quad burst". Always click, click, click. very rarely or just in close proximity did pure hold-click spam.
crazy thing is i do that exact head shot drill with hanzo to warm up before playing.
That shy Ronnie tho!
Correct me if im wrong, isn't there a trick like if you press "Q" first then blink close to the target, there is a bigger chance that you hit the target with pulsbomb?

Aim for the neck like how iddqd did with tracer
tracking and game sense is really all you need to have
Luke Toth That's not very useful info.
Jordan

I've known about the blink tip for ages now but I don't think I've ever used it in a game.
I think it's because I don't like using two blinks at once.
I tried this and instantly broke my wrist on the first try
was hoping for sombra tips, still great though!
Thanks..the mccree practice drill really helpful..I get 5/6 headshots in average 10 mins drill..I also add a little something..no hud in mccree drill..
music in the background? who are your favourite dnb artists?

when you are on maccree doing the drills, How come some headshots kill the enemy, some don‘t? Thanks
Can u make an advanced tracer guide ? I think it would be very cool
the last bot be like:
IDDQD: hello?
BOT: im good fam
Thank you very much ^.^
hehe I've been doing that iidqd blink aswell, always works at my rank :D
Any reason you got Reduce buffering Off ? Most post i've read about it says it should be on for 99% of setup. And also why caping your fps at 225 instead of 300 ? Thanks Mc Cree senpai :D
do you play all heroes with same sensivity? Or does it make sense to lower it for likes of widow,mccree,hanzo?
Please do a video on how to find your right DPI and sensitivity
can u do more of this for more heros in depth plz
I know what you mean IDDQD , i know what you mean.
i did this for 72 hours in a row, now i can finaly play mercy because nobody else wants to play a healer
Can I do the mccree/soldier drill with widowmaker? Yeah I know I'm a year late
Isn't it bad to have differnt sensivities for multiple heroes? I have the same on all, just so I don't have to adapt when I swap hero.
became a tracer main cuz of this
Hey Andre whadda you think of Aim Hero? ioStux reckons it's the shit for reactive aiming
Rumple I want to know his opinion on this too.
Rumple What is that?
Samson T. It's a game on steam that helps reactive aiming, tracking and some cool features, see it and different types of aiming on ioStux's video "Why Ana bots only fuck up your aim" it's pretty helpful
Rumple Ok thanks!
If you want to be good at aiming in Overwatch, then it's better to practice aiming in Overwatch.
Because:
1. Mouse sensitivity might not be the exact same in Aim Hero.
2. Field of View might not be the exact same.
3. Movement of the targets are not the same.
4. Your movement speed and movement acceleration might not be the same (these two things affect your aim).
5. You don't get familiar with the hitboxes in Overwatch by playing Aim Hero.
"Without me there is no you." oh.
I really appreciate the tips,and are you the real iddqd?
if ya watch his streams you would know his voice and be able to answer your own question -.-
Luke Toth people can just record his streams
How does Iddqd manage to play tracer with such a low sens? 2800 edpi if im not mistaken.
I use to do that blink on PS4 when the game first came out ... only played for first 2 weeks went back to paragon
Maybe u shldnt play a shooter on a console
Is one tapping when u hold the left click or when keep clicking ?? @3:04
1:33 top ten jumpscares 2017
Can you give me an explanation on why he puts so many of the video settings to low, Model and effects detail don't bother fps (what I heard) and I'm just wondering why he set them low?
Vertekx to ensure minimal input lag
Whats your sensitivity at? please reply with the main sensitivity , horizontal, and vertical. I am so desperate
wish you explained how to rocket jump or zyra shot jump
BMiBudz just shoot the same time you jump
Holy shit that screamer
