Yeah, it might be kind of exaggerated. But after reading all scary stuff about it and having people with rsi in my family...Zeraph wrote:

Don't try to play through pain, it is literally the stupidest thing you could ever possibly do.That's a misconception. I stop playing when I start feeling pain.

Pretty normal actually.buny wrote:
how do you play for at least 2-3 hours a day and yet only have 1k playcount for the month?Razacx wrote:
I've been playing like this for 3 weeks for at least 2-3 hours a day and haven't improved whatsoever. So I'm kind of discouraged :/
Let's say a song takes about 4 minutes
60/4 = 15 songs per hour
* 2.5 hours = 37.5 songs per day
* 30 days = 1125 songs
I also play marathon maps sometimes
You average 372.8 hits per map you play
your last 3 songs played are tv sized
your most played songs are songs that have a lot more than that average
seems legit, nearly all your songs are less than 4 minutes as well so you can't use that as a base value lol..
Most ranked songs don't even go to 4 mins
I also doubt you NEVER retry, or play every map fully

Why the poot does it even matter holy
@OP; don't overdo it, don't push yourself too hard, if you experience pain after playing then play slower/easier stuff until you get used to using your right hand, then you can move onto faster maps

Ok maybe not then, srry about that.buny wrote:

I do not retry every map as you said indeed. I usually just keep randomizing songs from the ones I have and I play those. Playing the same map 5 times in a row is not what I consider fun :p.
i have like 50 full runs of that renard marathon and 2 clears of that within temptation 50 minute shit, yet only average 269 hits per play because even a bit of retrying can skew that statistic massively

Less than 1k pc a month is obviously not a lot, why do you need to go arguing this deep to prove he's wrong when you only have to state this
It's almost even off-topic at this point

because when you have that mentslity, you tell yourself that playing more is not a solution. op is quite adamant that he plays a lot, and you even said so yourself that 1k is not a lotGoldenWolf wrote:

Wow, chill out, what does it even matter right now? I play during the free time I have and I myself consider that a lot.buny wrote:

It might not be a lot for you since you're so highly ranked.
But is that a reason to act the way you do?
i am chill.
dont make a thread on how to get better if you cant take slight criticism towards your standard of playing. if you are fine with how often you play etc, then dont make a post with a question thats answer is to literally play more.
just my 2c, last post here because your argument is giving me ebola

Rank doesn't necessarily gauge how often someone plays, sure they might have played a fk load in total to get there, but they might have done it over a long period of time.Razacx wrote:

Anyway, I'd consider around 1.5k - 2k playcount (Normal playcount, no spamming retries etc.) a month around casual to average, and 3-4k+ a month playing a lot. Rafis played something like 8k+ a month and even hitting 10k plays in a month, and that could definitely be considered a lot since he's rank #7 in the world after roughly a year of playing. Woobowiz played around 6k a month I think and hit rank #>3k after 6 months.
Man, when I switched over to tablet it was nearly impossible for me to aim with my right hand too. I'm right handed. You know what I didn't do? Change the way I've used a computer my whole life...

He's saying put the pen in your other hand and learn to control it.Razacx wrote:

That's pretty counter-productive unless the OP's fine motor skills are fairly good with his non-dominant hand. What hand is dominant is determined by your genes and you'll be able to overcome it partially but in the end you'll just flat out be better with one hand, having used a computer mouse with your non-dominant hand doesn't change that.Bauxe wrote:

Talking to the OP now, if you've used your right hand a lot for doing things that require precision (especially writing) you might be able to get good aim with your right hand. Otherwise I suggest you just learn to tap with your right hand. It's not that hard, really.

After reading trough this thread again, I concluded that I should just not worry about anything.
I mean, games are all about having fun right? :p
And anyways, I won't be able to play at all for the next three weeks due to exams :/
my hand locks up / starts hurting too when i mash but never when I play maps that are comfortable speedwise.
hope this helps

same, for example I can stream up to 150bpm until I get tired but when it comes to higher BPM I just lose speed. Sometimes I don't even lose speed and instead freeze completely.phonics wrote:

I question how the OP was able to use a mouse with their right hand all these years... And yes, with proper tablet settings you can use the same range of motion you use for a mouse.Saphirshroom wrote:
