Another thing, if ur against another widowmaker. Place ur venom trap on a corner where u can peek, then stand behind it and look through it. The enemy widow will have to shoot ur venom mine first. Gives u way more time to make a clean shot.

6:30 this is by far the best advice I've ever gotten. Most tips are ground level tips which are great, but map awareness from the top down perspective really really helps develop a better understanding for her positioning beyond "just be above everyone in high ground."

@@Joshi444 muscle memory for sensitivities isn't a thing been many different people look into it, use sens randomizers and other things but I don't think there is much point arguing with the brain-dead monkey DPS player that is you
Sens is very personal. I tried many things when playing val, but since my brain was so used to the one i started with, i still use it (about 500 edpi in val). I used alot of aimlabs and my aim in that regard is decent, but overwatch is very hard to get used to becquse of the different hitboxes. Going into a aim trainer in ow is therefore very good warmup. You also start aiming toward larger hitboxes (zen>kiriko, Bastion>echo forexample) many people go for tank shots, but squishy picks is ur job. Unless its a hog or zarya i usually ignore tanks for the most part
Thank you so much! I'm not the best at aiming yet, I've always been carried by my good positioning and game sense as Rein and Lucio, but I've never played a hero like Widow before and really wanted to try her out. This helps so much!
If you’re on high ground and there’s a way to get up instead of using abilities to get there, put ur mine on that place so you know if someone is trying to flank you.
practice makes perfect 🫶🏼, I just started using widow this week & I could NOT snipe to save my life & just yesterday I got 13 solo kills & 18 eliminations, compared to other widows it’s not a lot but for someone who isn’t good at sniping I felt proud about it! 🫶🏼
What's so interesting about the first minute of your video, is that my play has GREATLY improved with her using HIGH sensitivity... To your exact point of over flicking... that is the mental battle with her. Can you keep a cool trigger finger, or do you get too much anxiety in the match to play her? I realized it's all about your mental health, if you can keep cool high sense for me is SO much better because it allows me to move much faster and with more precision. Then again, I'm not a grandmaster I'm just talking about my own personal experience, my highest rating ever is plat.. and I wasn't playing her then.
As a csgo player for 9 years, here is my insight on sensitivity: If you are a fast sensitivity player, it will require more practice and work to remain accurate as most of your shots rely on muscle memory and consistency (im a high sens player) perks are that you require less movement to get to targets which reduces delays your arm movement provide hence raising the rate of recovery/reset etc and it is less work aim creating a more relaxed gameplay. Medium sens is clearly a compromise of the two low sens require less practice and is easier to aim at targets BUT require more work to aim at someone, ofc you want to always be able to do a full 180 on your mousepad but the slower the sens, the more accurate your shots become but the slower you move requiring more hand movements in order to get to the target and if you don't have years of aiming, your hands get tired fast and the more you play in a single sitting, the less efficient you are that day. Recovering/resetting your aim also takes much longer conclusion: high sens requires more work to upkeep, and allows a more dynamic style that gives you the ability to recover quicker and attack other opponents reducing the time delay between "brain-hand-kill" low sens requires less work to upkeep, and allows and less dynamic but more accurate playstyle allowing you ensure your kill given that you reacted faster than the enemy as the delay between "brain-hand-kill" is increased
I was shocked when I figured he plays between 4-7 sensitivity, I play on 33. I always sucked at csgo because it’s such a slow game. I’m a terrible shot. My mouse’s dpi is 1,800.
Trying to finally learn how to snipe after a lifetime of playing support or close range dps. It's hard to play widow and see the point uncontested. My instinct is to cap but I know I'll get killed if I do.
im a console widow and im hitting masters i have everything on 100 and in my opinion i play just fine (high sensitivity has always been my prefrence) i like high sens bc i can look around faster at a flanking enemy like a tracer or sombra
Try 50 horizontal 40 vertical 100% aim assist strength 25% aim assist window 80% aim assist ease in 98% aim smoothing 0% aim ease in 86% grapple sensitivity The scoped sensitivity should be whatever you feel most comfortable with but 100% is good as a starting point
I didn't understand the ads sensitivity tip, at 38% it's not exactly the same as the hipfire, to be exactly the same you have to leave it at 100% right?
If you set your scope sense to 37.8 (he did 38) then your default unscoped sensitivity stays the same you set it prior it only affects the scoped-in setting
I have 1000dpi and 11.30 OW, i know its fast but i dont have a lot of space, with mccree i always have 50/55% accuracy, with widow i sometimes find it too fast but i can hit shot regardless
Gameplay question for anyone that wants to help. I just got out of a comp game with 2 teammates complaining about my damage and that I needed to switch off window maker but they had an Ana and mercy making the rein un killable which is why I switched to window in the first place. So I don’t understand why they are mad about my damage when I had just as many kills as the other dps but most all were on both the supports whenever they came out. I’m I missing something or is that just silver teammate issue?
There’s always gonna be people who only view stats as the determination for success. I often play Tracer, and although I might not get significant damage, I’m constantly distracting the enemy team
Been playing widow for years but I’m trying to improve since ive never messed too much with the settings. (I’d say I’m pretty good but I’d like to improve anyways) No one ever talks about the aim assist stuff so I’m trying to find it ;-;

Is the zoom aim sensitivity the same for ashe and anna to match your regular sensitivity, also do these scope settings work if I'm on controller?
no
The setting for Ashe to be a 1:1 ratio is 51.47 and for Ana it’s the same as widow, 38 or 37.89 to be more specific
Quick question : how do you change the scope color to red?

What are the controller equivalents for the best widowmaker sensitivity settings? I play on PC but currently play better on controller than m&k
Try 50 horizontal

100% aim assist strength
25% aim assist window

98% aim smoothing
0% aim ease in
86% grapple sensitivity

What settings should I use for controller?
That sense tho, making me sliding all my stuff across the keyboard to even make 1 inch xD
It’s the scope sens only the same with the sense you Recommended or will it be the same with all un Scoped sensitivities
pretty sure it’s all
If you set your scope sense to 37.8 (he did 38) then your default unscoped sensitivity stays the same you set it prior it only affects the scoped-in setting
widow is always my throw pick 😈
i suggest picking a sensitivity that you're comfortable with, if you don't like these settings, then change ofc.
