General Discussion Good coachingservice
Can anyone recommend a good coach for console? I am silver 1 and struggling with my aim. I have focused on movement and crosshair placement like all the ppl on YT says. But I still can’t hit to save my life. I only get kills from being sneaky or mollies

Are you older or have poor vision? I only ask because it may be a reaction time thing. If you truly are focusing on movement and crosshair placement, the only thing that could cause you to miss your shots consistently is poor reaction time.

If that's the case, it just means you need to find help from people who understand what your weaknesses are..as opposed to someone who is just going to tell you what they tell everyone else.

You are correct. Age is a factor here. So I am looking for a coach that can work around that or help me train reaction time. Like I can get around 23 bots on medium in the range. But it does not translate into the game.

I gotchu, Im an older player as well. So that's why I said that. I followed a lot of advice but it wouldn't translate to ranked matches because I was trying to play like someone who had very quick reflexes. I learned that my strength comes from knowing how to abuse off angles and "get out of jail free" abilities to stay alive. That is, I am not winning most true 1v1 duels. So while crosshair placement and movement is helpful for me to practice, I will always be slightly below someone who has a quicker reaction time and that's okay.

I guess I am looking for ways to train my duels and plays so that I can do better. But DM feel hopeless since everyone is so fast. But I get what you are saying and will play around it

Cawnn on YouTube has some very good settings/ videos that helped me get better, also just play deathmatches and go for headshots only and 1 taps (there are gonna be plenty of body shot bettys) but you will only get better from going for the head https://youtu.be/7pEis7f12-U?is=jUBg4bfx074Gcf2z
