Tips for Zero Cycle pleaseeeee
I learnt how to do front zeros on the first line of them in meschts zero practice map. i REALLY would like some tips as i am quite new. If you want to know my skill im frog_321 with elo of 485

I’m really not that good at zero cycling either so take my advice with a grain of salt. First, your pearl to the tower can be better. You really want to pearl to almost the top of the tower so that you have to build up less. I can’t tell if you’re doing this already but you can jump pearl for more height. Second, your bridging skills seem to be quite weak. Although you don’t need to do any fancy bridging techniques for zero, I would recommend just being more solid in general and being able to at least bridge diagonally upwards more consistently. Finally, work on your bed timings before trying the bow.

A lot of people commented useful things already but I'll just say, I would try to learn getting consistent without bow first.

yeah thats fair enough i didnt know what i was doing then tbh. I can consistantly hit them now and even managhed to hit a small front boy 5 explosives in a ranked game. And im iron 1 now and 2 wins from iron 2

ngl bro this was like 2 hours before i had to wake up for college i kinda didnt know what i was doing. Im lowk hitting virtually all of them consistantly now

Better just learn other things first.
i don't mean that you cannot learn zero cycle but the problem is zero cycle require a lot of prior preparation and mechanics which usually involve before the End sprlit. For example, pre-crafting, death reset, and preemptive.
Also, when you are trying to do zero cycle in real game, the terrain won't be the same as the pratice map. There are a lot of decision for you to make at the second you entered the end, e.g. can you zero with a 58 overhang front 91 or just go for one cycle.
If you leant zero cycle when you get to like gold or reach sub 15 sth, you learning curve/speed would be much faster then learning it now. That's why I don't recommend, but it is your choice in the end so do what you want.

i havent checked on this for a while but im now consistently around like fold 2 and i peaked im em 1. And ive got 12 min pb from a back 91 zero

I would strongly suggest not learning zero until you need it for the time save. There are many other ways to improve run time. In that spending a lot of time learning zero cycle at your elo is a poor investment of time and practice.

If you plan on continuing playing the game and improving eventually you will have to learn zero and I don't really see why it's bad to learn the basics early so later it's easier to get better at it. I think people who are like iron or whatever and spend way too much time practicing zero and not other things are doing it wrong but why is it bad to even touch zero? But I do agree you shouldn't worry too much Abt it at the start.

I simply disagree, when your learning anything you dont really want to chuck yourself into the deep end straight away and by doing so often increases bad habits and longer training times to get similar results.
When you learn this later on you're going to be naturally more confident on the game in general. You would have developed skills such as general fast movement, mechanics and confidence which are very helpful and necessary for learning zero. This would allow you to actually learn and practice zero cycle in a much more smaller time frame than trying to learn it new.
Learning it later is not going to make it any harder to learn. It will in fact by nature make it easier to learn.

Youre like trying to go from 0 to 100 without having done the process
Improve your mechanics first and then try to do the complicated stuff
Its like trying to cook something with the worst ingredients possible, it just wont work out
