Ok so I use mouse and when i play a map i start with the mouse in the middle of my mousepad. Usually when i get towards the end of the map my mouse is now at the top of my moousepad leaning off even if my cursor is in the middle!!

When i started the map my mouse and cursor where in the middle of the mousepad yeah idk does anyone know if this is normal or do i need to change something.
btw my thing is set on raw input and also my acceleration is off. anyone got tips!!

I think this is something called mouse drift, and it's a problem for most mouse players. Try repositioning during a break or long sliders.

thats what I've trying to be doing but i have to lift my arm and its awkward and it makes me unaccurate for a second. guess that comes with being a mouse player :/

That can only happen if your mouse is broken, you use acceleration (pretty much as bad as a broken mouse anyway) or if you lift it up your mouse as you move it, which is hard not to do. You just have to learn to adjust to it, it's the disadvantage of relative positioning.

It can also happen if you move your mouse left/right or up/down in a differend angle than you do the opposite movement. It's hard to notice this yourself because you usually aren't watching at your hand and the angle it is.

Stuff adds and your mouse ends up somewhere. You could try getting a larger mousepad. Using a higher sensitivity helps, too, but it's probably a bad idea. You can learn to reposition during slower sliders and generally do it faster, too, but not all maps have parts where it's easy to do.

It is very normal and one the reasons I stopped with mouse.

It is normal. You can't really move your mouse exactly the same way every time.
The only solution would be to get a bigger mouse pad or get a tablet.

You could also get scientists to turn you into a cyborg so you can calculate your movements precisely, but that takes money, resources and your humanity.

It also happens by turning your mouse while playing.

You either don't use mouse or you get used to repositioning whenever you need to.
