Cheat Sheet

Key Reminders

 

Below is a quick summary of the chapters to help you recall what you can actively do in your games to greatly improve.

​

The Schematic

• Think about every situation – Why did I die? Why did we lose that fight? Did I miss my shots? Was my positioning wrong? Did our composition need changing?

• Even if you’re winning you need to think about what could have been done better

Awareness

• 6 enemies all doing something somewhere

• Mentally track and predict the position of non-visible enemies

• Anticipate and play around enemy ultimates and other cooldowns

Focus vs Autopilot

• Think about every shot - really focus on where your reticle needs to be and the hand/arm movement needed to get it there

• Don’t allow negative chat or tilt to distract and push you into autopilot

Aim Training

• Use any spare time to practise your flicks and tracking

• Choose a spot and flick to it

• Choose a spot and track it while moving around

• Why did I miss my shots? Over/underaiming, shooting too early, too late?

Harnessing emotion

• Expect to lose 50% of games

• Protect your own tilt, and if possible manage team’s morale - If you’re slipping, drop chat

• Be honest with your play and add to your schematic instead of placing the blame externally

I recommend printing this off or displaying it on another monitor when playing to refresh your memory on what you can do to become a fundamentally better gamer.
