If you want to get better at aiming head-level

Play something like Valorant, I genuinely improved my aim. All I did was play it enough to learn better techniques, and it made me much less jittery and improved my crosshair positioning. Valorant’s the one I chose, of course, but any generic fps works.
(this is assuming you wasted away your life on Overwatch)

EDIT: I mean this in a sense that playing other games can help break bad aiming habits.

You can do this in OW too, I did.

Aim alone doesn’t cut it in Overwatch. As long as this game has no movement acelleration, and you’re not some 16 year old on adderall, you won’t be able to consistently land headshots. Unless your targets are moving in straight lines for whatever reason.

I guess so, but I think it would be faster to play a different game if you’ve build habits that are hard to break.

I understand that, I’m just mentioning how my aim had been erratic til i played a little slower-paced fps.

also lol

Its complicated. Valorant is a different game with a different aim style and movement. If a player gets too used to that system it will not help them in OW, it will hurt them. Having crosshair discipline is something you have to make a habit but you can do it in any game, its not specific to any game.

i saw the notification and i thought i got an approving reply… i’m dissapointed.

i disagree with this with every piece of my body. if you want to get better at aiming head level put your courser at head level, its not that hard. if you want to get better at aiming in OW play OW, its actually that simple. i really really hate this trend of “this aim trainer will blah blah” or “this game really improves aim”. just put your reticle at head level, i can not stress enough that it is not hard even a little bit.

Making assumptions is bad.

If we are going to play this game, let me teach you something important, I is written in capital letter and you are not doing it. The grammar police is not happy.

I recommend just playing other games, tbh.
Even games like fortnite (especially if you try to chase the frogs) or rdr2 (don’t cheat with paint it black) can help.
It’s how it helped mine.

i understand that it isn’t difficult to just put cursor at head-level, but I can assure you that I played Overwatch for roughly 2-3 years on PC and never felt like just grinding aim in custom games or something so I never broke the erratic aim/bad crosshair positioning I had- hold on i gotta respond to something

Alright fine! I guess we are playing this game! Me and my illiterate 2nd grade pea brain will own you!

Okay, back on topic. Valorant was a lot more fun than the former, and it absolutely improved my aim.

We aren’t discussing which game is more fun.

Good for you, I never stated that it couldn’t happen. My point was that there is no need to play another game to improve your aim.

Those games actually make aiming easier… OW actually offsets the larger hitboxes with having such differences per character as speed and size.

That’s true… maybe only play it enough to regulate trigger discipline? After that, you could probably stop since Valorant is free anyways.

Well, I guess that’s true. I just thought it might help.

It depends. I can see a game which keeps you from constantly making vertical changes actually helping a bit.

  1. i dont like cs:go and cs:go like
  2. i cant aim even at body shot lvl.

Those fps games i liked to play in past now are old or not supported anymore for most part, so cant play any at the moment.

The suggestion was for breaking habits, so I would work on having habits before breaking them.

My habbit is to miss even on standing still targets
I was never good at playing heroes like mei or mccree…
