So i got a serious question about what should i focus on right now. Short story first, i started playing about 4 or 5 months ago and i drilled the craziest maps until i racked up 20k playcounts. Now my aim with the tablet is pretty good and i can read AR10 with absolutely no problem but my problem is with my left hand. I drilled the freedom dive practice map like crazy but i cannot play slow maps at all and my accuracy sucks. Did i hit a point of no return and completely screwed up my chances of being good or can i still learn everything if i go back to slower maps and actually fix my left hand?
You can always go back and fix your left hand.
I think I was in the same boat as you at some point, but it's not impossible to fix. All you need to do is increase your variety in maps.
It's good to play crazy maps so you can improve your speed, stamina, and aim, but it's not good to neglect slower maps. Otherwise you'll only be able to play hard maps comfortably, your reading will remain subpar, and you'll probably never learn how to accuracy properly.
Just play slower maps. At first play simple maps that are around 150 bpm. Even better if they have streams (like Eiji Kuinbii). You'll probably overstream a lot at first, but don't let that discourage you. Try to play some AR 8. Older maps, usually from 2011 or 2010 tend to use AR 8. Work your way up to 160, then 170, and so forth. If necessary, kriers suggested one ought to push their wrist onto their keyboard so that you can only use your fingers to stream, which immoblizes the wrist. This will force you to stream slower.
It's never too late to go back and fix it. Just try to make your first warmup maps slow maps and then make your way up to faster ones. Keep it mixed.
