if you are thinking about changing grip, this may be helpfull

recently after every longer sessions my index finger would really hurt and it made playing any aim focused map imposible so i decided to play stream maps... it also caused index finger pain
(i played with the usual pen grip)
so i thought you know what? time to change something. today i have changed my grip to (i think it was called) lateral quadrupod grip
the grip
at first it felt really bad and i wasnt able to play 4* but i played for few hours as the grip didnt cause me any pain and i was really suprised with how fast i progressed from there (i thought getting back to playing at my usual skill level would take few days) and i think i got pretty far on day 1 (still have lots of work to do)



you can share your thoughts on how important is the grip

i think i can point some things out about the grip rn as it feels way different from what i used

+:
-better aim control (more restricted hand movement)
-more consistent (when playing inside my comfort zone i no longer randomly move my hand,
i am still getting the hang of new grip so my hand sometimes gets confused tho)

-:
-faster stamina drain(because of the restricted hand movement your hand gets exhausted quicker, that will probably not be the case after playing more with this grip tho)

for now i cant really tell if im playing jumps better as i didnt fully adapt yet, i will update the post after few days

wrote the grip name wrong and...

aw hell nah dude

fun fact: no matter how many grips i will try if im bad at the game i will stay bad at the game
going with lateral tripod from now on as it felt more comfortable



tip: experiment with as many grips as you have to, to find the only one

now that the finger pain is gone the only thing that is left to do is to git gud

edit: that was quick i guess


Sightread btw

grip feels a bit loose lately and my index finger is making popping sounds so changing from tripod back to quadrupod so theorethically tommorow i will be doing day 2 of the grip change as i abandoned it after day 1 for the sake of a lil farming, need a more restricted grip. I will be doing a lil update after waking up and playing some maps as i still dont know if the change will mess up my muscle memory. figured out lateral grips are perfect for me as i cant really play precision with dynamic grips on my area

Changing grip could be very hard in the beginning, it's like playing with a totally different playstyle

I've used the same grip for a while with the pen a bit higher on my ring finger and it leaves a temporary dent if I play for a while lol

I can't aim with that perfectly perpendicular gripping. Very limiting when the circles are on the edges

holding the pen just a lil more horizontal now and slowly getting used to it, taking a 2 day break and coming back stronger for the grind

at this point i dont know if im lucky or just improving with these patterns, i would have to retry that like 20 times to hit that before grip change
my ability to hit cross screen stuff got completely shit on tho (for now)
