First Jade score!

First Jade score!

Ik it aint much, many people have gotten a dozen jade scores by my playtime but for me this is a nice accomplishment.

Especially given that precise tracking was initially my weakest point and that I did best at reactive tracking and static clicking when i first started as I only had some experience with counter strike beforehand.

This gives me hope, I am looking forward to Master tracking then I will see what s next. I assume it will be a long, frustrating journey especially due to my constraints and difficulties like trembling hands, poor fine motor control and skills, AuDHD, insomnia, low self esteem, low tolerance to failure and so on.

If i manage this, anyone can. I am not here to complain or anything. I just want to encourage other people with a slow learning rate (whatever factors causing it) to grind! I remember somebody s comment how this is a marathon, not a race. If i take 800 hours for MC, and Y person takes 400 we d be about equally competent regarding this skill/hobby. Sure they could ve used the time spared for training other skills but you get my point.

How to get rid of trembling hands/arms and discomfort?

I have terrible issues with stability, steadiness, apeed matching and shakiness. On precise tracking i jitter no matter what my sens is, on control tracking it feels infuriatin, static feels like i always land terribly, dynamic and linear well somwtim that fine control is doodoo.

I havent consistently trained in a long time i was barely diamond on vt s4, currently nearly jade on snaketrack s5 and gold complete on novice, some seal scores on viscose s1 tracking, virtuoso on all but 1 horizontal tracking scens on XYZ benchmarks easy.

Its like i physically struggle and no matter how and what i focus on my arm and hand just wont cooperate be it fingers or shoulde, 20 or 80cm/360 but i do struggle the most with arm movements rather than wrist and fingers.

Hardstuck after plat-dia...

At this point whatever i do or try it just feels mentally exhausting and annoying to play. I put like 20 hours into snaketrack intermediate s5, started xyz smoothness easy as well and got the highest score (before prismatic) on the first 3 scens but the spherical centering 180 and 240 ones...

On those i get laughably low scores and i physically feel uncomfortable doing those large tiny fast target tracking movements be it high or low sens. As for snaketrack well it throws me off because it feels like switching from control/reactive tracking to precise unpredictably so when i focus on clean smooth speed matching when it goes far and the target is tiny it starts doing rapid xyz directional changes.

I just want to get over this slump and finally grind up to MC. Took painful 200 hours for diamond on vt s4! Maybe i am just not capable? I assume ADHD, hand tremors and poor fine motor skills affect it a bit.
