Hello guys! I am a trash player with bright future and high hopes. Recently, I was trying to implement cookiezi wrist tapping with the thumb. However,the thumb makes it harder to stream. So I would like to ask for tips on how to practice it correctly. Pictures, videos would be appreciated. I just want to have the hand posture right. Thank you very much.

Rule #1:

Don't copy other people's play style because it will mess you up

I only switched my playstyle because, i was overpractising with the playstyle and i felt burn in tendons. Otherwise, i still type like him, but without the thumb.

Rip, looking at this thread I am now able to stream using cookiezi's tapping style. Now I am going to proceed learning his grip.

Its preference, most people say play with what you find comfortable, I was not using Cookiezies tapping style.

But a long time ago when I was 160k rank I was playing a lot of various artist long stream practice maps and have developed arthritis. Because of that, i decided to change my tapping style.

I saw Cookiezi supports his index finger with the thumb. So I was like why not try it, I tried it and had less stress on my wrist.

However, streaming with the thumb that supports index finger was awful. So I didn't give up, I kept playing that style, I kept failing, and failing until one day I was able to hit some cool streams.

Then because of that, i proceeded to stream all day and fuck my wrist. It was burning but not painful. This means my streaming speed increased overtime etc... Then I was like my pen grip is kinda too simple, why not make it complex.

I looked at Cookiezi pen grip and it was "retarded" as fuck. However, I want to become like Cookiezi, so I proceeded to copy his style. It took me 1-2 days to have its good position and my thumb tip was hurting because Cookiezi holds it with his tip of the thumb.

Now I am just getting used to the aim, also his pinky touches the tablet I think it helps a lot of the aim.

Anyway, I am gonna update this thread if I will get any improvement.

Well, cookiezi taps using arm and streams using fingers, i am doing the same.
If i were to use wrist to tap, i think it going to be painfull for me and it wouldnt be that effective for me.
idk.

So, here is the update.
So, far using cookiezi's pen grip was difficult.

From the start I had to figure out how he holds his pen and proceed copying it.

Furthermore, I had to adjust every time whenever I left my fingers from the pen.

However, after few days or a week or so, I got used to pen grip and my sim was bad. But my practice was to learn cookiezi's pen grip.

So, when I have reached my goal. My next goal was to practice aim.

I played alot of various artist jump practice maps etc.
So far with his pen grip I was able to pass airman 7*
