Short answerKeep your crosshair on your opponent, keep moving, take the first hit, and practise one kit at a time. A stable frame rate and low ping matter more than any trick.
1. Get your setup right first
- Frame rate: a smooth, steady FPS makes aiming easier. Performance mods like Sodium help - check the allowed mods list for what you can use.
- Ping: play on a wired connection or close to your router when you can. DGNetwork is hosted for low ping across India.
- Sensitivity: pick one you can track a moving player with, and stop changing it - muscle memory needs consistency.
2. Aim and crosshair placement
- Keep your crosshair at your opponent's upper body while you move, not where they were a second ago.
- Don't spam-click. Steady, well-timed hits beat wild clicking - and autoclickers and macros are banned anyway.
3. Movement wins fights
- Strafe: move left and right while you fight so you're harder to hit.
- Sprint-reset (W-tap): briefly let go of forward and press it again between hits - it gives your hits more knockback and helps you start combos.
- Take the first hit: the player who lands first usually controls the fight. Approach at an angle, not in a straight line.
4. Manage your items
- Learn your hotbar so you never look for an item mid-fight.
- In potion kits, heal before you're low, and back off to drink or throw - not while you're trading hits.
- Track your opponent's resources too: if they've used their heals, that's your moment to push.
5. Practise with a plan
- Focus on one kit until it feels natural, then add another.
- Fight players a little better than you - you learn faster from close losses. The tier system rewards beating stronger players.
- Record your fights with ReplayMod or Flashback (both allowed) and watch where you lost.
- Stay calm after a loss. Tilted players make the same mistake twice.
