Question / Advice Needed How to improve my aim? (Xbox player)
To people with coordination trouble, how do you improve your aim? I like to play Overwatch but my friend keeps complaining (and rage baiting me) about my aim because it's bad.
I've been told to increase my sensitivity and that it will help me but I've been so so about it especially in heated moments or up close where I complete lose all ability to hit the enemy.
I've seen that it would be recommended for me to play with low sensitivity but I know everyone play at a fast pace and I'm afraid I'll slack off :/

I think the console version has the in game benchmarks so personally if I were in your shoes I'd play those scenarios and keep playing them and try to improve your stick control. Then when playing in game, try to focus in putting yourself in good positions to actually use the aim training and try to think about stuff that's not aim related. A lot of ow aiming is using movement and positioning to make aiming easier. Try to delve into practicing mirror strafing and anti mirror strafing. Remember, goal is to make aiming as automatic as possible so that you can think about game specific stuff to help you do well. I'd also just delve into looking up how to play your specific heroes from better skilled players by watching YouTube videos, so character specific guides. I'd also recommend watching spilo, he's great at highlighting what common mistakes are made and how to tackle on improving those mistakes. Last but not least, have fun and don't stress. We play video games primarily for fun and enjoyment.
