Anyone who is watching this video and stumbled in the comments, I recommend you put this video in a 1.5 speed Thank me later
I did 1.75
Not to insult the creator but thank you!
I've done 0.25 thanks
Thank you 🙏🏻
I did it to drunk to understand it lol
This video was absolutely amazing, kinda of hard to come by a deep thinking video on youtube with all these memes and stuff. 10/10 Great editing and great commentary
12 hour's daily gaming for 9 month's! Shiiiit man i can't do that
I was like damn, dude went from 0.5 KDR to Pred in 9 months with minimal experience before hand... Same bucket I'm in, so I'll follow these tips and see where it gets me... But I've been playing *too* much, have to ignore some responsibilities to get in as much game time as I do... I've averaged 3.5 hours per day in the last five months, and that's with WFH, covid (not going out as much), and a cold winter. It'll take me almost two more years to reach the amount of hours he has right now.
Not complaining, and I don't expect to ever be Pred, but damn the realization sucks lol.
@@nashdashflash 3 hours per day is all you need, 12 hours per day is just not having a life.
>6 hours a day for the past 9 years, at best I'm decent now i'm no where near where i should be. Time isn't it man.
not me either lol
You’re nuts brother! Subbed! Would love to see a really in depth vid on your road to pred on apex! It’s been my first serious competitive FPS game and it’s been incredible, I’m also color blind to reds so changing the color blindness mode to tritanopia and it made my reticles yellow and that helped me soooo much!
Great advice and great video!
I appreciate the storyboard pacing and visuals to break monotony (though I did watch at 1.25x speed). Visual text when you add a point would be a nice bonus.
I've been switching game genre's or well actually started from MMORPGs to other types to see if I can get the right "community" or even solo fun out of things as it's become stale and boring as of now and this will seemingly help immensely. Awesome delivery dude. Liked and subscribed.

Keep up the great work, Kuya!
I’ve realized my biggest issue is frame drops from my old gpu. But I won’t be able to fix that for years possible due to the inflated economy
i like how you included apex into this vid, i am trying to get better in apex itself. i am pretty good, but i still struggle. i am thankful for this video. it helped me out a lot! thanks!
this was a pretty usefull vid. thanks for telling about how to get gud.
Great clip my dude, thumbs up and subbed. Can you make a video on how to sit for gaming ? Gaming chair, distance monitor and stuff like that.
bro... love vid!! helped me out idk but it did !
The video really was to the top even i am a potato and looking forward to be a bit good but the thing is i dont get time for gaming and parents dont let me so i have to do it secretly what do you think i should do sir??
if case anyone was wondering, you can never go too low on dpi, over time i went from 1800 to 300 and now using even 400 feels too fast.
great vid brother!
I started lowering my dpi and using a significantly slower sensitivity. Over a couple days things felt easier. It struck me on how long these things take. To become better..... it is possible. It takes time and the right steps. Finding these steps can be more difficult than first realized. But is more simple than thought. It takes time and practice.
apex is so hard everytime 3th , 4th party i win close battle but mid to long range i lose why is that why i dont see enemy on time and over focus or focus to less its never ok i can sometimes win a 1 vs 2 but almost never 1vs 3
Subbed. You’re a cool dude
I was ranked top 1000 in the world on PS3 in COD 4-6-8, I play a lot of dota (still), I used to suck at FPS on PC too, so pretty similar with this guy.
Lowering my FPS is %20 of the progress I guess, so it’s huge. Down side is, my Dota rank immediately went from 4,8k to 3.4k like in 2 months. I doubt that micro ability and aiming is releated. So now I’m playing in higher sensitivity in Dota, lower in FPS, helps a bit, I’m back at 4k.
Playing a lot is obviously a thing. Like %50, so yeah you have to spend a ton of time.
I think having a better friends playing the game is the key. I had 5k MMR friends in Dota and as I play with them, I’ve managed to get 4.8k peak. But in PUBG, Apex or COD, I have no good player friends that I can push myself.
Oh by the way, I used to have 6 yo pc, trying to run PUBG at 30 fps on 1080p. Now i9, 2080ti,144hz 2k monitor and 100mbps internet helps too, probably beyond what you think. Generally speaking in hobbies it’s not the tools, but in PC gaming, I think having a beast PC helps a lot.
what tips would you give to a person who has to play on a 60hz monitor? do u think someone witha 60hz monitor has a chance to play at the top level with that disadvantage?
thanks. i felt lost and felt like i hit a plateau. this helped alot.
Amazing Video! I'm just wondering how you have that much time to practice tho haha
I am extremely new to FPS games. Even in PC games as well. I just bought my first gaming laptop and want to play some games decently.
Wait so I know my Edpi so Basically I have been just changing my dpi but technically using the same thing I was told to try 1600 dpi so I did and adjusted my sens I used to use 1000 dpi for example on apex I used 1.2 sens with 1000 dpi should I put up my dpi thinking no more than 1600 dpi or should I use anything from 400-800 dpi? Also with my sens is that a low sens ? New to pc but I’m assuming it’s a low sens
It's really nice to see your passion grow as well as your channel flourish. Every content of it is worth appreciating. Since you've been trying out a lot of FPS games and have Apex as one of your favourite, Why not go to it's roots by playing Titanfall 2?
yes after 600 hours on apex, I've finally bought titanfall. it's NUTS I love it
@@BB-nq5cx Glad you're having fun!
i was high sens/ inverted y-axis player for bout 8 years and only started last year to play normal + 31cm/360
Just recently change dpi from 1600 to 450 comming from moba to fps and i feel more consistency on my shots now. I dont do fps trainer since it ruins my muscle memory because i cant/dont know how to replicate my ingame sens on trainer. Realy helpfull post btw and looking forward for the next post.
-SAi
It's easy to set up sensitivity in Kovaak 2.0, but i still don't recommend fps trainer, train in the real deal, the freaking game.
Bro this video is sick
in my personal experience wireless mouse are better because the weight of the wire flying around can sometimes pull your aim off slightly getting rid of the wire really allows you to stop on a dime. in my experience.
Due to my serious problem with FPS games I usually end up just being some sort of medic so I can still help my team in some way, so most of the time I have been playing FPS games has been spent either waiting to respawn or healing people
That's just how it is, u can't do anything about it, just like me u are shit at fps games so just give up like I did
What is the forst game you are playing around 1minute mark?
Thanks for the advice! About 50 hours into Hunt: Showdown here with zero progression to show for it.
Can you help me get better bro? I’m a good cod player but something is missing and I really can’t figure out what it is. I’m currently a 1.42 kd but it has been rising .1 a day and judging by my games and history I’ll be more than likely topping out at around 2.5 2.6 but I want to make it to pro status
ill give this a shot, thank you
You giving it a shot in fps games? No pun intended?
You know, I've heard so many people say how you got to adjust your UPI or mouse speed should be minimum or some would suggest better gear or to be aware etc....but i find most of those tips to be just a very miniscule percentage of what it takes to be good at shooters. I use a 5 dollar keyboard, a 7 dollar mouse and my mousepad is an old history textbook from school. I'm too broke to afford anything better, lol. But i still kick ass when it comes to online shooters....I mostly like to play Arena shooters and those shooters demand alot from you in order to dominate the matches!! I got good at FPS shooters purely by practice.
Having one on one duels with the bots from UT 2004 (on godlike difficulty) was the way i went about it. There is nothing more tougher than the godlike bots from UT 2004, they move and play like real pro players and are very hard to kill. After 2 months of practice, clocking almost 3 hours daily, i started beating the bots on godlike, I was confident enough to face other players online. If you can master Arena shooters, then being fairly good at any other FPS game will come as second nature. Unreal Tournament is still active in its latest iteration if you want to test out your skills with other players or Quake Champions is also a good choice (more maps but longer waiting periods).
the thing that fks me up is that im always freaking out nd i get the shakes i srsly want to die
Try and keep playing regardless. Effects of adrenaline will fade the longer you play in a session. Accept that you start out with a handicap and just take it as practice. Getting your shit kicked in is a part of the process!
@@CelldwellerX Think of the other team like B0ts, And remember its only a game! Enjoy yourself while you play it
Same here
And the toxicity doesn't help it much either
I’m taking the Ted Williams approach but with the technology of FPS 🥶
Thanks
What about playing different games how will sens be good in those games since I'm a potato in every fps I play. It's very hard to aim or get kills for me
I believe there is a website that you can use to calculate you sensitive across all games. So once you find a good sens for one game it can be universal. I hope this answers your question.
@@Jon.block5 what's the website?
@@EchoMid www.mouse-sensitivity.com/
Are you going to do a review on the Rakk Kaptan?
What's your sensitivity 800 dpi with 1.2?
Buy a decente sized mouse pad (at least 45 cm wide) and play with a sensitivity of 1 full swipe allowing for a 360 turn or, like me, a sensitivity a bit higher allowing for 180 turns, both left and right from the middle of the mousepad.
bro i want to see ur potato game vs like ur pred level
and yeah im also transition to pc so man it feels soo good seeing a fellow noobster go pred in 9 months . but how did u balance social life . i mean now corona had us all down but back when u were grinding like dat were u on stream. alone?. did u ever fel like u hit a wall.? i have soo many questions bro
I always was good at FPS in console almost to a point were games didn’t excite me... boy was i in for a treat when I got my pc couple days ago, never played keyboards and I’m suffering ;_ ;
Bruh 3000 in 9 months mean like over 11 hours of play every single day like whaaaatttt.
Step 6.1: Make sure to be capable of recognizing they're your actual friends, not someone whom you keep around because you're feeling lonely otherwise.
can you talk about mindset, confidence and smart play
Non of this matters, if your aim is shit then it will stay this way
U are either good at fps games since beginning or u will stay as utter shit no matter what
@@neros1277 your comment is wrong
@@neros1277 First of all, aim can improve over time, even if ofc not everyone can be at the same level anyways, no matter how dedicated they are, and second of all, aim ain't everything if you are just dumb in other aspects.
shared
Does any of this apply to console player on a controller?
Probably
Yeah
a good chair
I am noob in fps games. but all games are coming into fps and how to play well
From where i should start?
I like more 3 person games
If you play multiplayer games you're gonna have a rough time for a couple years
Let me tell you guys sum man, I played call of duty for the longest. When I started playing multiplayer I grinded that shit for years, day in and day out no cap. No every single day like yeah I had tons of girls, good friends, did some drugs, sports, just tried shit to keep my sanity in a positive tone. However, I learned that a sensitivity like around 6-7 out of 20, maybe even a 5 if My aim is off. You need to stay focused, move slow, never rush your fucking shot I can’t stand when my friends do that. And above all when you’re just running reps on games remember to work on shots, you need practice the difficult shots all the time, experiment the tactics that go into these shots, also watch creative videos and try to consciously remember what that person did(not no fortnite shit, like battlefield, cod, maybe siege, and stuff like apex) just comp work. I should get a video up of me just clapping dudes when I’m at my sisters place, her setup makes me completely unstoppable when I play stuff like halo or siege, ever since halo 2 I’ve always just grinded out the big competitive games. Go pro yall, this can be sum fun making money tingz no cap
My reaction time is slow well under average it’s like my brain sees then double checks to make sure then reacts my aim isn’t the problem it’s shooting first
@@neros1277 I’m good at other games, games that takes more thought than reaction time, I just can’t get nearly as good as my friends, playing solo with skill based matchmaking it’s decent I can do good against people my level but when I play with my friends I get destroyed
What game you play where your friends destroy you? Is your ping decent for fps games (50 or lower)? Do you have a high refresh rate monitor and a good PC that constantly provides high fps? Low latency mouse and keyboard? Play and practice as long as your friends? Have a good cfg?
@@Z3t487 most of them are Americans and I’m from the uk that won’t help but I just have a 1kd they have a 2kd that’s double better than me i would consider that getting destroyed I need glasses as well not sure if that will affect it
@@Z3t487 I have every call of duty mastery camo I definitely play enough
@@ImPoStier From my experience the most important thing is a good sensitivity: low sensitivity but ofc not too low that it becomes impossible to quickly move the mouse around/have awareness of your surroundings.
I play alot yet I'm still shit at fps games. At this point I think it's just talent and personality. I love fighting games because they alow me to be in your face and aggressive. Most fps games require camping patient shots and other shit like that which just aren't in my personality.
i have 1000 dpi. is that high?
I'm on 1000 dpi too. There's nothing wrong with it. Just lower your ingame sensitivity if you need to. dpi really doesn't matter,
the biggest problem is spending lots of time in the game. most of people started as beginner and lost many matches. no one enjoy losing many times, so they just gave up and change game
I want to be one of the best in the world while this sounds completely insane every waking hour I grind aim trainers and everything any extra advice would be appreciated however notice I never said the best.. why is that? Nobody is or will ever be I just want to be able to challenge and beat the so called best
You basically want to be a pro in the top 5%? That's not like asking much...
I find aiming on a mouse signifigantly easier than an analog stick, but I'm still garbage after over 1500 hours of it. Maybe it's just because my computer is a piece of shit and barely handles quake live....
Low fps will definitely hinder you. I'm quite good at FPS games and I definitely do worse when the game's performance is poor.
fps is important. If you don't have 100+ don't expect to be competitive. Ping is important too.
My whole life, ive had terrible aim and stats when it came to fps, so i never ever played them. Now im trying to get into Apex because I think it'd be cool to be able to play a few rounds rather than the games i already play. It's SO discouraging trying to play but getting 1 assist and only dealing 350 damage while everyone else is at 1000+
Not to mention, being bombarded in chat and VC by strangers yelling at me that i suck. Like yeah i know I've only been playing for 2 days 😕
I just dont get why games like these and so fucking hard for me. I just wanna run a few rounds and not have zero kills and 9 deaths.....
So I have to dedicate a massive chunk of my life just to become semi decent in A video game
you have to dedicate a massive chunk of your life to be semi decent at anything
@@yoofie4157 facts
@@yoofie4157 He said 3000 hours of gaming in 9 months, that's more than 11 hours of gaming per day, he needs to get a life, 3 hours per day is enough.
Yeah lol gaming is fun but dang that's alot of hours
@@Z3t487 it’s his side job too probably
I can't get better at any shooter. Just games that you can plan in like scarface, gta 5, Sims or any of those city building games I dominate. Shooters players are gifted their strengths I've never heard of anyone being trash and improving to competitive
Dude you are totally like me
This was great. However, it should be titled for mouse and keyboard players only
i think i need a real coach who help me in game
I'm not allowed on long enough to get good lol
Wake up early in the morning to play. That's what I do.
None of my friends are better than me...
Because I dont have any :)
Same here man. But you play online
@@Wilbur-em1hw with randoms
I gotta say I disagree with some of the stuff. I believe that positioning and game sense is important but my philosophy is that you can have the best game sense but without aim, you won't is hitting any shots. Not to say that game sense is useless, it is extremely important i just believe aim to be a bit more important than it
Game sense useless? Do you even know what is it? It's having a general idea where in the map enemies will be at a given time and when this is going to happen (like when you know enemy spawn time and spawnrape them).
@@Z3t487 I literally said game sense is extremely important
@@lampsarecool5141 Sorry, i didn't read well your OP.
bruh i play at 2500dpi but that is i only have like 20 cm of space
If you have no room for a bigger desk and mousepad, I'm sorry for you.
5:10 Did he really say 3000 hours in 9 months? That's more than 10 hours per day wtf
I just did my first 10 streak ever in cod cause of this vid.Yes Im totaly new 3 days old player .... Im a burger, but finally I kill ppl.... lmao
my pc is so shit i cant record wich suks
spent to much time on aim lab.. got good aim but shitty game sense... that’s literally me.
I have over 3k deaths on TF2 and about 200 kills
I needed this
Lol
You should let me send you clips. I'm like about to become something incredible. I've been playing 24/7 for years now. I've never tried to have someone help nor tried to compare the pros. I'd rather have someone that really knows the fps. It's weird the because there's times a god and then I just switch to bot mode. And I know I will just continue to slowly progress But ya you should see clips and review them and ya help.
DESTINY IS SO MUCH FUN
I've been playing FPS games since the original doom got released. I'm 37 years old and have always played and always sucked
