Hi! I had recently gotten myself into 4k mania. To be honest, I enjoy this game mode way more than standard. Although every time I play, I feel as though my left hand is definitely slower than my right. I'd assume that this is because I'm right handed and I don't necessarily use my left hand for things. But its annoying when I'm in the middle of a stream and my left fingers go completely stiff (fingerlocking is what I believe its called?) or it just cant keep up with the speed. Is there anything I can do to improve the speed of my left hand? Any tips or tricks are appreciated!

Well, I had the same problem with yours, but a few weeks ago I just found out how to improve your left hand but I'm not guaranteed it 100% works, but maybe it 80% work if you practice it consistently for a few weeks. So you choose any standard map but you must use mania mode, at first it will be a 7k/5k map, so you need to change it to 2k at Mods (Idk what the mode named is but its place at the bottom left). So it's the same as you playing std mode but the difference it is mania and you can more focusing to improve your left hand.

Btw you need to change your 2k keybind first.

( And I'm truly sorry for my stupid bad English, I hope you can understand it and I hope it helps for you also )

Start tapping with your left fingers randomly when you're not playing the game.

Since you're still fairly new to mania your speed will improve from just playing more.
but if you want to speed up that process a bit and prevent injuries I recommend doing these exercises every hour or after your mania sessions. I've been using them for couple weeks now and my speed has improved by quite a bit.

Everyone has a bias in their hands as far as I know. It's just something you have to deal with, but it might help to prevent it from getting worse. I usually try to focus more on exerting my left hand during dense patterns to make sure it's not falling behind and that usually gets it up to speed eventually.

play some slow 2-5min stamina streams(id say around 140-1
70bpm), and practice higher bpm once your hands are comfortable with the speed of the streams

To compensate for hand bias, I started doing daily tasks (e.g. brushing teeth) with my left hand, and after a week or so it improved my dexterity in that hand.
