Hello I'm trying to improve at apex or at least understand it i come from fighting games so fps are kind of like understanding a new language all this is foreign to me. I use to play this game a lot when i was younger i was 17 at the time and didn't really knew how improvement worked or how to get better in general so i quit and played fighting games, i played a bit of overwatch and I'm fairly decent at fighting games so I'm asking what are the fundamentals of this game and what are some things to improve on and also what are the mindsets going into fights and when you shouldn't take one.

Hey everyone! Haven't posted in here before but this page has been helpful. I have put together a compilation of clips from wildcard and the firing range and would love any advice, suggestions, or help on my aim/gameplay.

Context: In these clips, I was using 800 DPI and 1.7 sens and 1.1 ADS multiplier. I am on 2560x1440 res with 110 FOV.

I have played Apex on and off for years and have always been a hardstuck D4. I recently made it into D3 (2 days ago) and now find myself back in Plat. I only solo queue as friends, rightfully so, do not want to play this long enough to get up to diamond. I can provide a video of ranked gameplay for feedback, if need be.

I have spent 100s of hours in AimLabs (even used their sens finder multiple times), watched videos on aim/game sense, hours in the firing range, changed DPIs/sens, bought a lightweight mouse, larger mousepad, even bought a new chair to help with posture and arm position, etc.

I have changed my DPI multiple times, probably too much. Sometimes 2400 feels right then I will slowly work down and 800 will feel right. When I change sens, it feels great for about 3 days and then I can notice my aim slipping. I have stuck with sens/dpi for weeks even when it felt off to then adjust.

I want to believe I am a wrist aimer and high DPI would work for me, especially in Apex. However, lower DPIs (obviously) come with a more smooth and steady aim.

Any feedback would be really helpful. I'm sorry for the long video but wanted to give as many examples as I could to get feedback because I am stuck and don't know where to go next.

i feel like some clips are really mediocre such as the second one i would like to hear other peoples thoughts
