ok but for real this isnt a good idea and practicing vibro very early on in your career + doing it for an hour is just asking to get injured, if you are gonna play for 6 hours at least split it up to 2 seperate 3 hour sessions as you need to let your body rest in order to gain back your endurance. tbh you will most likely end up wasting more time when you only really need 1 hour a day to actually get good gains.

improvement is a marathon, not a sprint please dont spam vibro maps then end up permanently injuring the fingers you can only be given once

pls enjoy game

adding on to what the other person said, if you ever feel any sharp pains while practicing, stop playing immediately if you want to avoid permanent injury. (a burning sensation or soreness is normal but not a sharp stabbing pain.)

for your sessions, if you *really* want to play 6 hours a day no matter what then I'd suggest taking a decently long break more or less around every two hours.

about vibro, as a skill it isn't really important so I'd honestly personally advise you stay away from it completely for now especially since you're only playing ~3*. if you do end up wanting to keep practicing it then please make sure you're using proper technique and not pushing yourself too hard.

since you want to improve quickly, I'll drop a few tips. I'm a fairly high level player but you don't have to take my word. I would still suggest at least reading them.

click here for tips. warning: wall of text

1. don't spam retry maps if you're doing poorly.

1. always have a proper warmup before playing.

1. look at your replays sometimes to see where you can improve.

1. your mentality about the game is extremely important for improvement. keep your mental good and your experience playing the game will be good. if you're solely playing to improve and get better then you might be prone to falling into a bad mental. your emotions will affect how you play so try not to feel too upset if you're playing worse than usual. (this could also lead to bad habits like spam retrying maps but not doing any better then feeling even more frustrated, leading to mindblock.)

1. I said it above but please keep yourself healthy (stay hydrated btw) and avoid injury. any injury will absolutely slow down your improvement, and if you push yourself too much then you could end up suffering permanent damage.

if theres anything you want me to elaborate on you can ask me on discord

Adding because it hasn't been explicitly mentioned yet, I *highly* recommend adding a proper stretching routine to your sessions if you haven't already. They're pretty easy to find if you just look up wrist/hand stretches, and they're great for keeping yourself from injury. Plus on top of that, in my experience I've just played better during sessions I had stretched compared to those I didn't

This is a great place to start
