On a coding level, this is insanely impressive. I can't even imagine how you'd go about doing something like this. I hope it's just a one time troll instead of becoming a huge trend.
Jump master tip.
Trim 200+-meter glides down to a precise art: float straight, dip at 135, accelerate to 147+, level out till 135 again. Repeat. Master this for flight supremacy. 🦅
1. Insists on playing mnk + complains about AA knowing it won't change + doesn't aim train to improve aim = stagnation and frustration with one's own mechanics.
OR
2. aim trains + unbothered by AA + growth mindset that allows them to rapidly catch up to pros with 4 yrs experience
The
#1
reason why teams don't pick players up isn't skill. It's ATTITUDE. You could be the beamer of all beamers, but if you complain, countercall, ego, and tilt often, you won't get picked up.
Pro is short for PROFESSIONAL. Act like one, and you will be one eventually.
Commands during fights > supplying information
Less time processing information, more time fighting with your team, controlled pacing of fights, increased clarity of comms
"154 on Bang" < "PUSH Bang." 3x
"There's 2 on the right." < "No. No. No."
"I'm batting." < "Wait." 3x
Due to recent events and what happened earlier during NA Regional Finals, we are going to be cancelling scrims until we have an official statement from EA/Respawn regarding the situation.
@PlayApex
T2 players, you don't need a "cracked Fragger". You need someone who doesn't throw games, listens to your comms, doesn't rage like a child after dying, allows you to make mistakes so you can learn from them, and doesn't die every other game.
I'm not liking this anti-movement player rhetoric for R5R 1v1 servers. Let me state this clearly: I'm totally okay with movement players on Karma servers. It's not just a place for people to warm up or practice their 1v1 mechanics. It's also a place for people to have FUN.
CHEAT CODE for Solo Queue Rank:
1. Communication filter set to Nobody.
2. Voice chat set to Open Mic.
Prevents incoming comms that sour your day + You can still lead your team
How come 16-19 yr olds new to competitive Apex are more professional and mature than grown adults who were in the scene for years?
I'm an old man myself, so I can say to the senior comp players, be better. Your reputation for 'weak mentals' is why you aren't where you want to be.
If you are a T2 player who isn't being given a chance for your set of skills, EXPAND your skill set.
Fraggers should learn igling.
Igls should learn to frag and aim train.
Flexes should learn advanced specializations.
Make yourself UNDENIABLY good at the game.
Is there a chrome extension that allows me to mute every post on twitter that's mnk vs roller/aa debate? It's old. Nothing has changed. It exhausts me, like that one friend who only talks about their issues every time you hang out.
R5R MnK Players, we have input base matchmaking now, so you can avoid rollers. lol
Press Insert to open console. Type wait 5. The server will wait up until 5 seconds to find you a match for your same input. Usually, it's instant in a full server.
You can change 5 from 1-15.
This is NOT the right way to ask for changes for r5r. Please create tickets in the r5r discord. I don't want to promote a culture of people shouting on Twitter and expecting changes.
Remember that r5r devs DO THIS FOR FREE OR LOSE MONEY. Go through the proper channels please. Ty
I apologize to all mnk players in Apex Legends for releasing the sauce on how to actually improve your controller aim. Feel free to use Input-Based Matchmaking in r5reloaded to avoid future rollers who use this. Again, sorry.
Here's the sauce:
I'm going to say something that'll make people angry and think I'm an idiot: The fact Pro League teams aren't first going to R5R to pick up new players, and instead recycle the same failed players is DUMB.
2023 r5r grinders picked up: Koyful, Zaptoh, Awakening, etc
2024: ???
When there was a cheater epidemic in NA a few years back, NA pros flocked to other regions to avoid them. But now that it's happening to them, there's a severe lack of empathy. lol.
Just off of hours spent in R5R, firing range, and general training, I'd have to say Dezignful might be the hardest working pro in Apex. Wish more mnk players trained their mechanics as much as he does. The closest to that is Mavv.
Fun fact: if you're controller on pc, you're probably training your aim inefficiently. Verhulst's training routine and 1v1s will only take you so far. Will have more info in a month.
@mokeysniper
Seriously, just from a design perspective, each of these were genius patch that didn't introduce feature creep. I was worried about perks being a sign of feature creep to come, but it made each character more modular and easier to balance for future updates.
what the hell. nobody said anything to him until he won. no one enforced anything up until that point. is there anyone at algs that can chip in their opinion on this?
TL;DR Lost my Points and PLQ spot from CC
#3
For having a Pink Dot on my screen from an applicaiton i thought was allowed because it was whitelisted by EAC and i saw others using it. (RESHADE)
Imagine if they enforced this equally how many people would be in trouble. 😂😂
Genuine old man who is new to twitter question: am I supposed to follow people back who follow me? If I don't, is that consdered rude? Don't really know the courtesy. Still learning. Lol.
R5R Players! New monthly challenge: Headhunt.
Post a clip of you killing
@bloomjngflower
in 1v1 servers to get 1 entry for a chance to win a coaching session with
@wrthcrw
! Any input is allowed.
1 entree per person. You have the rest of January to enter.
Next month is
@CcamFPS
@daysuuki
only for skully p headies. But that's about it. I think if more people picked up the G7, you'd see it dominating the meta. And it's even more forgiving because of the high rate of fire compared to 3030.
A banwave is probably coming within a month or two to retail apex. Devs delay banwaves to prevent cheat makers from figuring out the detection vectors.
Once again, team fighting mechanics are different skills than individual mechanics. There are reasons why a 3 stack full of the best rollers can lose a fight. Use the 4 Fundamentals:
1. Stay with your team
2. Command your team
3. Send your team
4. Start the fight with utility
I can tell if you pad your stats in R5R. Lol. So if a scout asks me about your crazy k/d or other stats, I tell the truth.
Conversely, if you're a good player and I notice you afk or goof around a lot, I tell scouts to pay attention to you.
My 2nd online drama. Dude didn't check I became ASH's coach a week before pro league started. People are weird man.
@zachmazer
No hate to you. In fact, love you and defended you to hell on Reddit. You may wanna check your fans. At least they are passionate. Hahaha
R5R Players! Play the Karma R5R "PERFORMANCE BUILD" test server please! It might be missing some features, but it will help us get critical feedback to the Engine Development team. Playing on this server will be super helpful
Comment in R5Reloaded feedback channel. Thanks!
@Treereeeee
I give it a week before someone figures out a way to turn it into an unseen movement tech somehow. lol. Maybe emote combination or something.
There aren't enough IGLs in T2 because no one trains by VOD reviewing pro games 2+ hours daily.
Fraggers train mechanics.
IGLs train judgement.
There is no secret strategy.
Do the work over a long enough period of time and you will find success.
That's it.
Tip for rollers: if your hipfire is trash, open r5reloaded aim trainer. Use the Hitscan Auto weapon. Open strafing dummy on invincible. HIpfire only shooting. Whatever your accuracy is, increase is by 10%
That's 3 servers that will probably completely full within 3 minutes. Will have to discuss with Elmo and Mkos about future plans if it's going to be this full and people can't get it consistently.
How to vod review:
1. Watch pro game on Elben Gate Gaming on YTube
2. Steal everything useful. Rotations, how they defend from attacks in a building, comms, angles, timing, utility usage, etc
3. Don't repeat their mistakes.
That's it.
Over time you will develop your own theories
People get mad when I say this. Team fighting is a completely separate series of subskills than individual fighting mechanics. It's something you can purposefully improve and practice.
Deleted the old post. All I'm saying is we opened another server to handle the new players. However, we have talked about making an elite server with possible k/d barrier. But it's waaaaay low on our priority list. For now, enjoy the new server.
R5R players, we know you're experiencing AWFUL hit reg and latency issues. We are testing and trialing a lot of things in the backend. The servers you're currently experiencing are test phases. They aren't the future of Karma. Thank you for your patience!
Why Vod review 2 hrs daily instead of 2 hrs of rank?
-Dumb people don't learn from their mistakes.
-Normal people learn from their mistakes.
-SMART people learn from the mistakes of others.
Doesn't matter what your role is. Think like an igl and become more valuable as player
Decided to leave White Flash as their coach. We're all on good terms. Was brought on to coach 5 days before PL. Watched the team go from consistently bottom 3 in their first two weeks to 7th and 11th overall in blocks, and their first 2nd place with kills in a match. P. 1
As the r5r guy, I'm telling you stop playing it as a way to improve at comp. Go vod review, scrim a lot, 3v3 tdms with your team, and play rank as aggressively as possible with the intent to speed up your decision making. Also, hire a coach. (Not me. Not taking anymore students)
About da cheater thread by
@Adayumz
: it's good we hold cheaters accountable. We must also hold FALSE hackusations just as accountable. Like when
@TeqAPEX
made hackusation about
@SkittleCakez
he apologized publicly later.
False accusations can be incredibly damaging too.
I remember years ago saying R5R will be the future of training for competitive or just in general. We are slowly getting there thanks to people like Zee. New super secret modes I can't leak yet coming soon!
R5R Players!
Reply with the 3 best free agent R5R players below for NA only!
A scout is looking at R5R players. The scout will check their stats on + do custom TDMS, maybe private 1v1s
Format for replies below is this:
mnk: 1, 2,3
roller: 1,2,3
Came back to X for a day to congratulate
@CalamitousVX
and Forbidden for making PL. The amount of shit Cal went through this month is unreal. Constantly swapping teammates, winning CC but losing all points, only to come back with a team that had 3 days of practice to qualify. P1
I'm a VERY mid aimer (Aimbeast Platinum in tracking and dynamic with some Diamond scores). And yet, I can win against top controllers in my current region in 1v1s because of
-strafes (not even good ones tbh)
-maximizing velocity
-and DIVIDING space

Most people actually waste their time in twitter as they think it will give them LOTS OF VIEWERS when streaming games like Apex, not realizing that tweeting should be a way to strengthen your ties with your peers and not "farm impressions"
Most people actually waste their time in aim trainers as they think it will give them GOD AIM in a game like Apex, not realising that aim training should be a way to increase mouse control and not to get "better aim". 🤓
Attention! Players 60+ ping on Karma servers, we hear your issues with awful hit reg. Expect this will be a longstanding issue as we try to fix it. This may take several months. It's not about money or time. Hit reg is a complex technical issue. Thank you for you patience.
This is one of the main reasons we don't have more good igls. I watch all T2 "fraggers" and "supports" say they don't want to igl, but then rage like a child at someone who is trying to grow as an igl.
It's why this myth of 'better mechanics equals pro league' persists.
For 99% of you trying to make a living off of streaming, only playing the game + streaming isn't enough to grow your brand. Content creation, collabs, networking, community building, events, etc are the minimal effort.
If you're dealing with players who annoy you in 1v1s, join the Elite Servers. Be the first to populate it. Top 200 players are allowed in. Just click and you'll find out immediately if you're top 200. Create a ticket if you're running into issues.
99% of the people who said they'd train 2 hours daily in r5r aimtrainer on roller have already quit or defaulted to using it as a "warm up", and would rather do 1v1s even though aim training is proven more effective. Aim training is an ego destroying act. Take that how you will.
Karma Servers Announcement:
We have new staff! Please welcome
@TonyPikachu_69
@xxfartlordxx
and
@Revolver_FPS
to Karma Servers staff!
They will answer your tickets in Karma discord, ban people, and help out with questions!
Current aim meta is to train on harder versions improve. what's helped me is if I do a version that's .7 or .8x the speed. Slowing reveals my bad habits in real time. It applies to very other mechanical skill. I don't know why we teach the opposite in the aim training community.
This will sound nuts. I might make a video in how to use aim training to build willpower. It actually works. It transfers to other areas in my life, and I'm much more focused. Super simple.
Doki vs StrafingFlame. Now we need a Doki vs Mav on stream. Then Strafing vs Zero. Then winners of both against each other. Maybe throw in mokad, mooman, future, pablo, or whoever in there for fun.
APAC players, please play on Singapore and Sydney servers created and ran by
@rexulili
instead of migrating to NA. I know many of you go to NA because there are good players, but you need to build a culture of r5r in your own region. It took a long time to get to where NA is now.
As a certified old guy in the Apex scene, I think my favorite thing about most of the 'next up' younger players is they seem to be genuinely good people. Some are very emotionally self aware for their age. It gives me hope for the next generation.
If you lack the will/desire/motivation to do what you want, here's a principle that helps me:
Start Ten Times.
You wanna write, draw, exercise, aim train more? Start ten times every day. You'll progress and build good habits really fast.
Small starts create big finishes.
The better I get at dynamic clicking, the more I accept that shotguns in Apex are absolutely trash compared to almost any other fps game. Multiple poor design choices that compound into terrible feeling gunplay for mnk players
-reticle sway
-delayed shot
-slow bullets
etc
I can superglide, lurch strafe while shooting, and chain fatigue bounces. But I choose to not use any movement tech in 1v1s. I'm the anti-movement player. In fact, you'll often see me stand still for half my clip.
Sydney servers by
@rexulili
popping off! They now have Karma's SBMM and IBMM. Default IBMM is set to 5 seconds to search for same input via input lock, developed by
@ttvmkos
@strafingflame
@dokiww
@Rukoko_ko
let's get these servers more populated
"scrims are useless" -
@StrafingFlame
As always, 100% correct. Today proved it. Hard lessons today. Resetting this week. Will come back strong on Saturday.
If we make LAN, I'm making everyone on our team wear a mask, including our manager. They are all too good looking. I don't want that to distract viewers from watching our in-game performance.
