The Best Training To Improve Your Aim In Apex Legends
Dominating lobbies in Apex Legends requires more than simply having keen game sense and strategy. Incredible aim allows you to exploit any scenario to your advantage, no matter how dire things may look.
How many times do you hear yourself or your teammates say “they’re 1 hp” or “they’re so low!”? Imagine how many more fights and games you would win if you and your squad consistently hit those crucial shots.
Apex Legends and Battle Royales in general have significant downtime where you aren’t actively aiming at enemy players. There are so many things players have to worry about which means improvements to aim either don’t happen, or take potentially thousands of hours. Aim training in KovaaKs sees players dramatically accelerate their aim gains, creating aim gods in weeks, not years.
How to Get Better at Apex Legends
How to Improve Your Flicks
Flicks are used when aiming with weapons like the Wingman and other semi-automatic or single-fire weapons. A flick is a swift aiming movement that is useful for hitting evasive enemies. If you would like to learn more about what a flick is and how to do it, check out this blog to learn more about flick shots.
To instantly improve your flicks today, learn to be deliberate. Spamming your weapon at the maximum fire rate is a great way to sabotage your aim. A successful flick requires you to click within a fraction of a second at the apex of your flick. Should you click before your weapon is ready to fire, your shot may fire off after you have reached that apex and miss as a result.
A great way to practice this skill is to play the Flicking Trainer in KovaaK’s, or play a scenario like McCoy 1v1 that requires deliberate and accurate shots to hit the evading targets.
Greatly Enhance Your Tracking
Tracking becomes significantly easier when you understand the movement constraints of the enemy players. Reacting to an enemy can lead to panicky and erratic aiming movements. Know that the enemy in front of you can only move along the ground or jump.
When you simplify their movements, you can trace the opponent with your crosshair. The mouse movements above seem very simple to copy right? And they are in-game too, but the stress of the encounter and your own movement can make things seem far more complicated than they are.
As long as you can match the speed of an enemy with your crosshair, you can have perfect tracking with the right perception of their movement. Playing maps in KovaaK’s like “Midrange Longstrafes Invincible”, “Thin Gauntlet” and “Thin Aiming Invincible” are great ways to train your ability to copy a target’s speed.
The Secret to Insane Aim
A technique to greatly improve your aim is to focus on your target. Sounds simple right? Perhaps, but there is a huge difference between looking at a target and focusing on a target. Think about looking into the spinning blades of a ceiling fan: you are looking at it, but it’s just a blur; if you really try, you can focus on a single blade spinning around.
Learning to focus rather than autopilot and ‘look’ at enemies will take your aim to a whole new level. Tracking becomes far more calculated and enemies suddenly feel much slower. Flick shots are dialed in and devastatingly consistent.
To develop the habit of focusing on targets we recommend playing scenarios in KovaaK’s like “Midrange Long Strafes Invincible” and “Close Fast Strafes Easy Invincible”.
Mouse Sensitivity
Playing on a suitable mouse sensitivity is key to having great aim. A player using the default sensitivity of 5 and a mouse DPI of 3200 would have a mouse sensitivity of 2.6cm/360, which means it takes 2.6cm of real-life mouse movement to perform a 360 spin in-game. This is incredibly high and even the best aimers on Earth would aim terribly on settings like this.
Most professional players use between 20-40cm/360 in Apex Legends. This allows for great control while also having the ability to execute quick movements and aim in any direction needed. To find out what your sensitivity is and what settings you need to play on to be in that range, you can use a mouse sensitivity calculator. Feel free to iterate on your sensitivity to find what allows you to perform best in Apex Legends.
Start Improving Your Apex Legends Skills Today!
Aim training in KovaaK’s has revolutionized the skill curve in FPS games. You no longer have to grind for thousands of hours to maybe develop some sick aiming skills. It works much like a gym does for building a body. The hyper-focused training environment allows players to develop their aim in the fastest, most optimized way possible.
A 20 minute Apex Legends game may include around 4 fights that require aiming. This is woefully inadequate for developing a skill. 20 minutes of actively aiming at targets in KovaaK’s can be worth days or even weeks of your normal gameplay. To improve your aim in Apex Legends and all FPS games, we highly recommend warming up and/or training in KovaaK 2.0. Check it out on Steam and start your path to becoming a human aimbot today!
