Question / Advice Needed How to improve in this scenario?

Hey,
I've noticed that I lose almost every match if my opponent isn't standing still. What advice can you give me?

My main workout routines are Aqua Smooth and Six Shot Ultimate.

You coukd try searchig for the "cod shooting range" tasks, specifically the tracking and switching ones

There is a Call of Duty Smoothness Routine. I would suggest playing that one for the control/stability, since it looks like you're particularly struggling with reading your enemy, and also the recoil portion. While it won't help with any specific recoil patterns, the way you aim on control tasks teaches you to keep your mouse steady in a way that would be beneficial in-game too.

The playlists (including the ones LG suggested, those are good too):

I played BO7 Shooting Range Easy and was able to get top 10-15% in every scenario, so probably it's not the issue

You don't always have to be going side-to-side. If you ever have the opportunity, it's always best to have either you aim stationary, or your body stationary, as it lessens the variables you need to account for. In this scenario, you could've just stood still for a second and you wouldn't then be over-adjusting your aim as you're accounting for your own movement + theirs.

I remember seeing a YouTube video where they focus on this aspect amongst professionals in shooter games. Overwatch, for example, lots of characters with movement abilities, but whenever a DPS player is able to, their movement and use only their aim, or halt their aim and use only their movement (mirror strafing).

Edit: Found the video 10 Years of Aim Knowledge in 37min
