You have to prepare for looking wierd when spinning fast, and it's best to spin close to middle, but still not too close because your cursor could get on the wrong side and your RPM decreases for a moment.
They more or less act as breaks for your tapping stamina to replenish a bit. especially on fast, streamy maps.phonics wrote:

well I've been gaming with a mouse for 15+ years and i've never had to make multiple fast circular motions. I spend 15+ mins a day practicing spinners and still cant even get 200rpm consistent and usually cant complete spinners unless I know they are coming. the movement is so foreign that I doubt itll ever start feeling natural no matter how much I practice.Rewben2 wrote:

I'm well aware but I cant really fix it since my brain just won accept spinners for some reason. No matter how slow I try to go or how much I practice I still cannot get any kind of consistent RPM, its really demoralizing to get 50s and 100s from every spinner even in 3.5 star maps, pretty much all of my ragequits are because of spinners.GoldenWolf wrote:

you're doing something veeeeery wrong
Have you tried spinning the other way around? Also, let's trace your issue. Try making quick a circular motion with your finger, dragging with the table. Is it difficult still and how fast is it? Now, try again but with your whole hand without the mouse. Is it good?phonics wrote:

I've tried spinning both ways. My spins are more circular if I spin clockwise but much much slower so I spin CCW. I can do circles fine with my finger / without mouse in hand but the moment I encounter spinners in game I seize up. The biggest problem from watching my replays is that when I spin I tend to cross over to the other side without making the full circle. Say my cursor is at the top I sometime accidentally move it through the center of the spinners to the bottom instantly killing any RPM I might have. I can complete the 20s Ievan polka maybe 1 out of 20 times I try.KagamiHRS wrote:

Oh my. I've been able to 250+rpm since I started playing and that's really nothing good. If you're getting <200 with practice then you should try completely redefining your technique because something is wrong.phonics wrote:

Your cursor should never touch the center of the spinner. Your cursor jitters around a lot and you don't consistently make a circular motion. Try making bigger, cleaner circles with your mouse until you learn to move correctly. Then you can gradually reduce the size of the circles you make in order to spin faster once you feel comfortable. Getting a good mouse pad also helps.phonics wrote:

Your spinning looks too tensed, it's all about momentum, not manually spinning in circles. You want to use the corner of your wrist around right here:phonics wrote:

one at the beginning and one at the end. Sad part is I'd actually consider those spins lucky or even great on my scale of spinning ability.
I use 800dpi but I'm so used to it that I can't really change it but I doubt my sensitivity is the issue.

You should push down onto the mousepad or desk around this spot, then pivot around it, spinning with mostly the arm (comming from the elbow). The tension on the skin will cause a circular momentum when moving back and forth from the elbow. Mouse does not have to be gripped hard. If I'm spinning really fast usually everything EXCEPT my hand is tensed. I might post a video if I'm not lazy.

It works. Honest. Try making circles in paint. Better circles=better spinning its not everything about speed. But personally i barely care about spinners i usually do them only to get 300 and stop to rest cause they dont help in ranking at all.Storm2344 wrote:
Advice to players who play an widescreen with mouse. Try to disable your mouse buttons and press them both when spinning. It'll help in making better circles. Instead of "eggs" you'll start making actual circles. I can spin consistently 410 and if i feel like getting as much as i can from spin i can do 430-440.
