  • Mouse Grip Styles.. EXPLAINED!
    In this video I'll go over my experience with each grip styles and some pros and cons to look out for. I wanted to make this video for some time now with everything that I've learned over the past year when it comes to grip style. I personally don't think one grip style is better than the other the best grip style will be the one you play best with. All have their strengths and weaknesses.

      Same here I like a good palm contact but I dont really put my whole arms weight on my mouse. And with my pinkie and thumb I lift my mouse ever so slightly like not even a millimeter so that friction cant slow me down when I'm tracking. I'm using the Model O- and this strategy seems to be working pretty well in Overwatch at least

    One very important thing is to always re-center to your original resting position so that when you aim at a foe you can track properly without running out of reach. This is a very needed practice to get as fast as you can possibly get it.

    I started out finger style, but since i was new and sucked at everything mechanics wise, i switched to palm because i was initially more consistent with it. Ive tried claw before, but i didnt get that the whole point is to flick with the wrist, and then detach to track. Whenever i tried claw id use it the same as palm. Didnt know you could combine the god aim with flicking. Bouta try this in a minute. This helped a lot

  • @Kanabizu

      I don't know why this idea that low sense has more accuracy than high sense has been established.
      Increasing the sense gradually is very easy to master the high sense, and in fact is more consistent, because less fatigue due to having to move less hand.

    Pretty sure shroud uses a relaxed claw? Right? Back when he played CS he arched his fingers but he doesn’t have them as raised anymore probably due to playing games with hold to ads as it’s easier to aim that way. Although from his mouse cam you can see him pull his mouse down with a relaxed claw (often when controlling recoil) which I don’t understand how he does that because that would mean he’s using a more fingertip style grip since he would have less of his palm rested towards the back of the mouse. If anyone has their own thoughts leave them below. Great video btw, very well made and explained! Subbed!
