I went from a GSR, one of the slowest pads on the market, to a skypad. For the longest time I thought I would hate speedpads but I made the jump and I LOVE it. Tracking is WAY more buttery than any other pad ive had. It exposes a lot of issues I have with my aiming, but Im glad it does so I can get better. One of the best things is I have a cat who pooped on my old mousepad and now I can just wipe it down to clean it :)

Nice review! I’ve been using the Skypad 3.0 XL for about 3 months now - in tracking scenarios I topped my high scores within the first day. My flicking dropped off initially and I’m now seeing improvement beyond previous scores but with some time and practice. Love the sky pad, having an arm sleeve is a must for consistency though

Hey, skypad 3.0 user here. Came from a horrible clothpad & rvu to a gpx. I hated skypad at first, but honestly after a while I got better than I've ever been. I went from diamond to GM in alot of scenarios. I'm still relatively shaky, but im GM on static & reactive tracking and masters everything else. 1000% worth it!!

The trick with the skypad for stopping power is technique. The technique is learning how to finesse your palm pressure, less weight on your palm for tracking, more weight on your palm for stopping power for wide flicks, and finger pressure for stopping power for micro flicks. I Have top 0.1% static and target switching scores to back up my claims.

@WestProter Жыл бұрын

I'm not saying your wrong, this does sound useful, but for a 1400, your 1w6ts is quite smooth.

@CodyG_95 Жыл бұрын

@@WestProter Not sure if its the way I render my videos but I have noticed youtube playback always look considerably smoother than what it actually was. Always looks about 20% smoother once you've uploaded them not sure if its a focus while playing thing, or the fact that its 60fps. I remember when I was stuck at 1200 and would watch a vod of somone getting a 1400 run and gettting frustrated as it looked the same speed as what I was flicking at when i was getting 1200 in real time. I think its not until you can actually physically get those higher scores you realize how fast you actually have to be flicking compared to what the vods look like. i've noticed this a lot in OSU! Vods as well. But yes my aim is far smoother atm than it has to be, I'm still getting used to the skypad myself. For me, the pros of the skypad outweigh the negatives only just though like 60/40. I'm choosing to overcome the negatives of the pad rather than using it for its obvious tracking strengths will hopefully deliver an overall improvement in my aim, and thus, it has so far! If my 1420 score looks smooth to you then I wonder what my scores will look like when my flicks are no longer smooth :P

Back in the very early days of KZfaq actually a lot of people often did that because it was said to mitigate the reduction in quality of the final video as downloaded from youtube and HDfy it as much as possible. I'm guessing WP had to do it because of the algorithm. Not blaming anyone either way, sometimes this stuff has to be done.

i am using a skypad for a year now. i switched from a plastic hardpad to the skypad. my main game was valorant the entire time and my sens is very low. im using the ginalmouse starlight pro atm and i can say, if youre willing to put in time to learn a low sens on a skypad it can have a great outcome. im playing 0.2 on 800dpi. i dont have the speed disadvantage other ppl experience when using such a low sens on a cloth pad. i put in the time with aim trainers and overall playtime to "learn" how to stop my mouse in time. before anyone asks, im immortal atm (sorry for my english, its not my first language)

@Diitttoo Жыл бұрын

Hey man! First off, I wanna say your guides have helped me tons in improving my aim! Great work! I have been doing the voltaic Kovaaks routines, but I never realized that you’re supposed to switch sensitivities based on the playlist. I mostly play Valorant, so I focus on dynamic and static clicking. I currently use 40cm/360 sensitivity. Is that a recommendable sens for Valorant? Or should I switch it?

Off topic, aim training is great and it helps your aim improve faster. But if there were no aim trainers and you were to pick one game to improve your aim at a top level, what game would you choose? If you can’t choose one game, what games would you choose?

If it weren't for aim trainers I probably would walk away from gaming overall at this point, or at best play games once every 2-3 months.

Important for every fingertip enjoyer on this pad: GET A CARPIO G 2.0 !!!! and this is not a joke or scam or anything. I highly suggest west proter himself tries one himself on this pad with a light fingertip mouse, im 100% he will confirm that this boosts your stability by alot, and that is without sacrificing your tracking potential. This is not some random magic trick, the thing about sleeve on glaspad is is that your base becomes unstable and shaky, while the good tracking comes more from the floaty wrist movement around your base/anchr. The Carpio basically removes the friction while you move your arm but gives you enough stability without shaky rubbery skin/sleeve contact on the pad and allows you to rotate wrist freely with a solid anchor. It needs 1-2 days to get used to but boost scores on stability scenarios by 10-15% fingergripping on skypad/glorious helios. Interestingly enough on control pads in improves tracking scores because it enables you to put less weight on mouse and more on anchor without slowing you down.
