The Beautifully Smooth Aim of Snowi - Unraveling the Secrets of Aim Ep. 3 

technique enjoyers (100% accuracy) brute force barbarians (epic fail)

Another trick for improving smoothness technique that I learned from my own personal smoothness god, Scucchi, is to train on easy versions of the scenario, especially at the end of the day or when you are too tired to do harder scens. You can still improve your technique. I found I can play on easy scenarios for a really long time, but still push my technique.

Being more consistent and aiming with intent is the way to go if you want to see and feel the improvement. Whenever I post runs, people always say it looks “disgustingly slow” but very smooth. I’ve always trained my technique and accuracy over speed, and while I’m still not as fast as I’d like to be, I can still achieve top scores with higher percentages than others. Consistency is much better.

this is something i've kind of discovered myself through osu, as a game that's very consistency based, i noticed that the people who spammed DT to push their aim would be overall inconsistent while the people who took their time with lower ARs would have a higher aim consistency and a higher baseline skill.

Awesome video! Snowi has been my favourite aimer ever since I watched one of his vods. His technique is just so nice to look at

Absolutely beautiful video

Thank you! This makes me motivated to keep grinding this way. I play Apex legends and most of people that I know plays with a flicky technique which I dislike... instead I like the smoothness flow aim that the controller(pad/joystick) player have and I want my aim to be like that even though I use mouse. It's not impossible since I see so many Korea/Japan OW/Apex player have this kind of smooth flow aim with mouse so I keep practicing slow and low score but high accuracy but I have been doubting myself as of recently. So this video just makes me feel so validated! Thank you so much! ❤

thanks getting 300 on bounce 180 now

THE SNOWI METHOD YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOREVER

I've seen a lot of videos on this recently and am really liking it. I've been trying to smooth out my aim and be less flicky. Woohoojin and Daniel Kapadia have both covered this recently with how you flick being more of a deacceleration curve and understanding this has helped me a ton. I've now noticed this is how a lot of pros aim in game.

probably one of the first times I haven’t skipped an in-video-ad because it was so goofy and caught me off guard

thanks to this video i will never flick ever again thank you and see you next time

Snowi is one of a kind.

Great stuff, your interview with ddk was great stuff, and this content is even more rich. Interesting how there are certain characteristics across gaming, sports, etc., that are almost more desirable than pure performance outcome. Snowi's smoothness is the aim equivalent of this. I would aspire for Snowi's smoothness and top 10-20 aim over top aim anyday. Watching the Bounce 180 example is pure kino. To go way back, reminds me a lot of toxjq from Quake. He was the pinnacle of aim from his arrival for what seemed like over a decade. Even though there are plenty of players who match or surpass him in aim (e.g., serious, clawz), there's an it factor that stands out more as a spectator. This type of smoothness is the same trait. I'm old (in gamer years) now, and don't have much time to play anything anymore, but thanks for breaking this down and articulating something that, for a couple of decades, has just seemed innate in very few players.

Thank you for explaining and breaking down the exceptional technique of Snowi and explaining logically how we can achieve a similar level of smoothness ! I look forward to more of this style of content where you explain and teach us how we can continue to improve and learn from the God tier aimers in the community. Thank you for all you have done for us Mr Overwatch

great video matty

pls do more videos like this. it is really fun to watch and educational.

Most important video on the page and it’s hard to take notes on because I can’t see the transcript .

can't believe he finally released this video

thank you matty i needed that

So good, thank you for this series ❤

hearing that unreal tournament ost brought back memories bro

Amazing video, thank you.

very cool video :3 !! keep it up :D

Its gonna be a fun run sience I like smoothness more then speed :3 Thank you goat for t he awesome guide again 🐐

i love these style vids

Slow is smooth, smooth is fast. I never heard any aimtrainer guy say that but it's apperently said to every sniper/marksman in the military. I train at ±80% of max speed and have close to 100% accuracy. Speed will come with time but your fundement is and always must be accuracy in my opinion.

this intro is the best intro in youtube history ngl awesome video i love this series!!

bananafps been catching strays for YEARS

You guys always make it seem easy, for me no matter what sens I use aiming towards the left side is my big weakness, it feels impossible

Matty giving up the secrets of how to edge moving balls

SNOWI (ME) TECH VID.

snowikit my goat

Smoothness helping with clarity is very dependant on your monitor. If you are smooth and have consistent movement on your monitor, you will consistently see some amount of ghosting / blur that could make it difficult to see what is going on, on bad monitors. Flicking and then stopping to see what is going on in this situation would be easier, because the amount of blur caused by on screen movement is lowered. This is why you see a lot of people flick very snappily in games like CS, where any amount of blur could make the enemy incredibly hard to see on a bad monitor. If you have a good monitor though, then smoothness is the way to go.

you should check cs surf wrs if you like smoothness on the mouse. Its not really aiming since they have no target but strafing on a consistent pace is rewarded and some runs are mesmerazing

Someone send this man a new mic already, great video tho as always

In general for fps games, is it better to be smooth and accurate when flicking or should i flick really fast and micro adjust if needed?

Slow is accurate, accurate is fast.

Hi Matty OW, thanks for the amazing video! Just one question, I'm iron/bronze in Voltaic Benchmarks and do the V.D.I.M routine. Should I continue like this with another 30 minutes of smooth tracking or just train tracking for a long time? (like gold in precise tracking)

calm smooth aim also seems more applicable to actual comp games. guess i gotta let go of this cod habit super flicks and start practicing this control then.

Simon woke up today and chose violence.

What exercise for game like PUBG they often dont move fast, CQC and occasional cars passing by and tiny targets from far with sniper

i wonder whats snowies sens, must be on the high end right?

Awesome video! I saw your interview with Daniel and I'm working my way through your backlog. I'm particularly interested in close strafes and the idea of "running out of mousepad" (something I hear people say occasionally when they die in overwatch!). I saw your video "Close FS Thin Evo V2" and I was under the assumption that since you change sensitivities for different scenarios, you would choose a high sensitivity that would let you avoid the "running out of mousepad" problem. I was really surprised when you literally ran out of mousepad and simply set it back quickly and resumed tracking! I was wondering if there's some nuance behind it. After seeing you do that it was kind of mindblowing. I have been practicing 20cm/360 so I could 180 around blink like crazy on Tracer, but my tracking is better ingame and in Kovaaks on 35cm/360 (though I feel like I run out of mousepad easily at that point). I play on a large 45cm pad for reference. I guess I'm just wondering if there's a trick to quickly resetting when you run out without impeding your Kovaaks run or gunfight in OW. I have been binging aim related content and have yet to really see the mechanics of this addressed. Although maybe the answer is just lift your mouse up bro and I'm overthinking it lmao.

Nice video :)

Hello GOAT aimer brother! Recently came across a vod where u used GPX1 wired to win the red bull event ...Can you please suggest me GPX1 or GPX2 ? which is best for valorant and do i need to change the stock skates for playing Valorant at a Rank high lvl currently am immortal3 ......Also I cant choose between the GPX 1 or GPX 2... Please help me ! GPX1 is 9K and 2is 12k in my region.. I have 10K max which one should i go for then.....Please do reply pleaseeeeeeeeee!

Bro really said "trust me bro" in his ad

Do you think yay has a similar aiming technique as snowi? He is really consistent and doesn't really flick fast but is more about accuracy.

I wish I could learn such powers (I’m a shitty aimer unfortunately)

This completely contradicts hna's guide and your video about static clicking, where you said that the main mistake players make is that they don't flick, but move the crosshair smoothly, right?

Waiting for the Video about Stark

"trust me guys my scores went up after drinking this" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😔😂😂😂😂😂😂

Could you please tell me the name of the scenario between 5:59 - 6:05 ?

can you do gooning technique next

cover BlueWhale's Air next pls

Decent video

this seems to be contrary to the HNA routine. Is this the superior technique for tac fps?

is it possible to know what sens Snowi is using?

anyone know what cm/360 snowi usually was on for these runs?

8:16 what is the name of this song?

can you share your aimlab or kovaaks settings?

matty, will u update those vids more frequently

What sensitivity and DPI do you use vaorant, aimlab? greetings

I MADE IT INTO A MATTY OW VIDEO WTF

Another great player with insane calm aim is Loud Less

Sestroyed pls

bro you took my description

What’s snowi channel?

do you remember a couple years ago, the top precision tracking player was hauntr, but the 2nd or 3rd best was a guy who had super shaky jittery aim? thought his name was snow or something like that. trying to find his vods again.

what sens does snowi play

Theme mame plssss

yippee

I think the best example of this aplied to a game is Aleksandar playing Valorant.

im not as good as snowi but i can relate to the aim type lol

And I still can't find a cm/360 for me

no way the :3 aim method is actually real 😭😭

active aimer

in valorant i think noted has the most smooth aim by far

6. It'll all be over soon 8. slapped 9. fuck it i wanna go to hell do i see a pattern here

TL:DR - aim calmly. "Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast."

minecraft ost on background is a dirty trick in terms of mental atrraction -_-

Snowi is a she! (at least she had a girls voice). I used to hang around in her quiet kovaaks streams all the time.

I filling to your videos

Obviously his aim is impeccable, however I think it is only useful to train like this for certain genres. In valorant or CS2, it is unlikely you will ever have to shoot more than 6 or seven targets, typically within quick succession where speed is of highest importance and pacing has to be ignored, and over and under flicking can be compensated for by burst firing.

😂

he is dog

good video :)

can't believe he finally released this video
