don't think too much about how high / low your sens is, and don't overreact to dodging. There's no secret, only practice.

Aim with your movement and not with your mouse

A DIRECT QUOTE FROM KETNAR!

that's fine until you're in a fight with a high level player, they all know how to counter that
although i'm not saying you shouldn't use that style of aiming in certain situations - just don't rely on it like a lot of peepole seem to

Well... How good are you at tracking aim right now? If an opponent was to go from left-to-right in a straight line, would you be able to track them perfectly whilst standing still? Say... 98-100% accuracy? I personally believe that once you can achieve this, you are ready to begin practicing the harder parts of LG aim. If you can't do this, then just practice it as much as you can. I'll set up a little goal for you: be able to move your mouse horizontally without going up and down, without any assistance (prediction/angle snapping). Having smooth aim is crucial.

I suggest you take into account your movement when aiming, a lot of good LG comes from just movement. Movement allows you to make aiming easier for you, whether its strafing with your enemy or just moving as little as possible. Use your movement not to aim better, but to aim easier. If you and your opponent are ADADADing out of sync constantly, then it might help if you stopped doing that, for me it just makes the situation worse. Also personally if someone is ADADADing, I tend to just swipe my mouse left and right across them instead of attempting to track them perfectly. It's easier and you're more likely to hit. This was a technique I picked up from some ET players a while ago. Following that, when playing Dirty Bomb I just realised that sometimes when people jump up, you don't want to follow your mouse upwards with them, you're just adding more mouse effort and sometimes it might just be easier to initially aim at high-chest height and to follow straight. This has helped me with my tracking aim in every game. Understanding movement is crucial to boosting your %. Another good thing to learn is to just let it go, to stop firing, if you know that you are going to miss your opponent, then pull your finger off of that mouse button and aim back onto your opponent, then fire.

Here is a LGC3 video of a hldm troll named BiggY, it's a pretty good video and it shows some of the things I wrote about. Watch it thoroughly and notice how there are some situations in which he can improve in? Watch your own replays and look for those kind of situations, consider what solution would be best and keep that in your head - Don't aim on autopilot mode.

I suggest you install Quakeworld and use LGC3, it's a bot that hits 50% accuracy and it will rape you if you do not play well vs. it. Play it on the map povdmm4 and do your hardest in those 3 minutes to practice aiming onto it. The short stints helped me considerably and I often use it now just to warm up. I'm not the greatest LG/tracking aim player, vs LGC3 I get 40–47% without trying to manipulate the bots movement too much.

Personally I know there are some better LGers out there and they may not agree with what I'm about to say here, but I suggest you play some games that focus on tracking aim, games like Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, Dirty Bomb, Soldier 76 in Overwatch, etc... Also there are plenty of aiming guides for RtCW/ET that cover some topics like these a lot better... Off the top of my head I can remember BossHK's tutorial and RaZieL's tutorial...

Honestly I don't know if my rambing will be of any use to you, it might be good it might be bad, fucked if I know.

AIM HARDER

Tried LGC3 it looks like a good way to practice, but for some reason my character has god-mode and doesn't take any damage. Hopefully I can get it working properly because it looks like a more fun way to practice LG than I am doing right now.

i sent you a friend request on steam, if you were up for some thunderstruck CA

ready up
/ready

you're probably still in warmup mode lol

I was, silly, silly, mistake. This is great practice and its a lot more fun than what I've been doing before.

just point and click and try supet super hard to get it on them.

I am definitely no master but I realized a some time ago it's not completely a matter of reacting to the dodge but rather abojt anticipating the enemy dodges. A dodge lasts so short you may not have time to react. My 50 cents.

Hence training with bots is like fighting an 8yo autistic opponent with just very good aim as they almost don't dodge.

michael j foxxing + much flame about mothers or foreigns

Forearm close range, wrist long range, both mid-range. Learn to do it everyday and it will come instinctively.

Signed person who had sick lg then forgot how to lg.

Move your mouse in such a way so that it lines up the crosshair with the enemy. Ensure you are pressing the shoot button when it is lined up.

This!!! That's top level snizzle my nizzel.

movement first, aim later!!

I wish there were active LG practice servers near me.

Maybe there's a LG mode/config/whatever to practice with bots? Would be convenient.

LGC3

might be cool but it seems to be quake world only.

it is sadly

fortunately though, quakeworld is incredibly small in filesize and with little effort you can configure quakeworld to instantly throw you into a LGC3 game

HIT THEM FIRST!

Spam corners before enemy appears etc, accuracy is not so important as damage, learn which situations to use lg.

If you are talking CA and just raw aim then same applies with hitting them first and being aware of your own dodge pattern, the dodging is far more important to learn first as it's harder to aim when an enemy has their lg locked onto you. Go ask H41/strenx and I can assure you they will say learn to dodge properly rather than just ADADADAD, your own accuracy will automatically increase as theirs decreases.

Everyone has dodge tendencies, learn them, and next time you play against someone you will have better results with lg.

If you are duelling then try to see enemy config, check their binds to see which direction they can't move in while switching to certain weapons. You can figure it out without seeing cfg, just have to pay attention ;)

What is your...sens/accel/enemymodel/lodbias/playerlean/lgstyle/crosshair? What sound or animation are you using to see you are hitting enemy (xhairhitstyle / lgimpact )?

Try not to move your mouse at all, the more you move it the less you hit, so as little motion as possible :D

depends on the sensitivity

and movements

Not really, this is mostly solid advice for people who just start out, as it's far, FAR better than the opposite of flailing your mouse around.

More accurate (har har) advice would be to only move your mouse when absolutely necesarry.

you have to realize that you don't necessarily need to dodge to get the best combat-skills with lg.

some people hit 50%+ but almost never dodge. Others hit 35-40% but almost always dodge. And the rest is 50/50, they hit 40-45% and have decent/good dodges.

you have to find out your playstyle, if you're more a dodges-heavy player or an aim-heavy player. Maybe you're a bit of both, so then 50/50. Maybe you aim a bit better than you dodge, so you're 40% dodges 60% aim. Or the opposite, 60% dodges 40% aim.

to finally find out your playstyle, you have to play a lot of lg duels. Eyetoeye or thunderstruck are good for that :)

then it's only a matter of practice / pc setup / config / mouse&sens / keyboard / mousepad. But practice more than the rest.

thanks for checking my old article.
as long as you can think logically, you can troubleshoot a lot of issues by yourself when it comes to simple things like hitscan aiming.

in your current case,

[problem]
it looks like you can hit well against small movement.
but you cannot hit against big movement.
and the reason is, you feel like those big movements are fast.

[what you want to do]
you want to improve your aim against big movement.

[logical thinking]
in general, lower sensitivity is easier to hit against small movements.
higher sensitivity is easier to hit agaisnt big movements.
since you feel good against small movements,
I assume your sensitivity is kinda low.
so here is my ideas.

1. higher your sensitivity
simple right?

2. practice with your current sensitivity until you feel comfortable agasint big movements.
because you already feel good against small movements.
if you higher your sensi, you might not be able to hit as much as you do right now agaisnt small ones.

3. add accel
i dont recommend it until you become able to troubleshoot things like this by yourself.

4. try faster mousepads
similar idea to #3.

[test some or all of them and see the result]

just keep the crosshair on them innit
