Hello,
I'm wondering how are you controlling your mouses?
I never met anyone who's controlling mouse just like I do. Bad luck maybe? Is this method is so uncommon?
My wrist is always on the mouse pad, it stays in one place. I move mouse mostly with my fingers .It takes only about 1,5-2,5cm of movement to get from one side of a screen to another.

I do the same thing when not playing games that require a lot of movement and precision like CS. I move my mouse solely with my fingers on desktop and I use high DPI. This sometimes causes pain in my wrist after a few hours though.

I use my whole hand to move large distances a wrist to adjust. Moving it like you do is not accurate enough for any game that I play.

I switch between all the known styles at least and some of my own variations depending on the situation (all with ultra sensitivity). That said it forms only a small part of why I am so incredibly good in just about any game...

I asked this because I keep struggling in CS:GO a lot  :)

sensivity * dpi, if you have between 600-1800 after you calculate it you are fine. If you are over you need to bring it down.

 

I use 800 dpi and 1.3 sensitivity.

I know that. Problem is it doesn't work with my style. I have to force it myself to move whole hand, witch feels weird. :/

Struggling is for the weak and pathetic. You possibly care too much; are you a carebear?

 

Just believe in your self. What is the methodology that "   " utilize?  :lol:

I use 760DPI at 1.92 in game, to get better though, lowering this further is key for aim, but it takes time, i am at DMG and feel my mouse settings are fine for LE/LEM, but going above this is going to take more adjustments as you will now be vs some of the best players in CS.

If you want to get good you have to get good. Life is tough.

 

 

 

Well you can keep playing your pleb way, put in 10000 hours into the game and be the next professor chaos.

 

 

 

 

Also I came to cs:go having not played since source days, for like 5++ years. I had my sens way too high at first, my arm actually hurt because I was lowering it all the time. Now I feel pretty much comfortable. And I'm global too so, that's an indication that I did fine.

Can you make up even more random numbers than that? 733 dpi 1.725 sens.

I too have never encountered anyone that moves their mouse like i do.

I smack it around with my penis.

 

No but seriously. My wrist stays put until i have to make larger movements or i'm gaming. Thats when i break out my peni*Erm* Move my entire arm

When just browsing the internet, I will often use just a claw grip and use my fingers and wrist to move the mouse. 

In game, as I have a very low sensitivity, I use my entire arm and wrist to combine them into accurate motions.

I do this as well I use about 2500 DPI for normal stuff but sometimes drop it down to 500 if I need precise movements for CAD

Move my wrist a little bit, almost palm grip (not quite big enough mouse for full palm) and mostly move fingers, but sometimes move wrist over mousepad.

A mix of fingertips, little bit of wrist and small forearm movements. ... Oh my... that sounds rather ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

For internet browsing mostly fingers moving around in a plam-ish grip.

Bleigh!  Ever hear of AC series?

I move my mouse the same way you do and it's working well for me.

I've done both, and I tend towards a fingertip grip (with my palm floating just a centimeter or so above the palm rest). I usually move both my wrist and arm, but my wrist carries out the main movement and my arm makes small adjustments.

 

An arm has much more mass than a wrist, so moving an arm requires a lot more force and results in a slower speed (for me). 

 

I never get tired or feel pain because I used to play piano for 8+ hours a day.

I use fingertip grip and wrist movement for like sniping and stuff that takes only little movement, but I also use fingertip and almost all my moisemat usually. It's the destructor 2. A large mat. I rotate at the elbow for that one. I dont know my dpi though. I would guess at around 1k
