โ€œWashed gamers in their 20sโ€ There is good news for us 20+ year old gamers, it is actually possible to change your brain to the same degree of a child or teen, it just requires 3 thingsโ€ฆ - training correctly - focused effort - good sleep

This is what good (healthy) sleep looks like. Those light blue blocks are vital portions of REM (Rapid Eye Movement) - these are critical for motor function improvement. In others words, you can buff your aim, by practicing & sleeping correctly.

I really want what is best for gaming. The player pipeline into esports, competitive integrity, and even the general culture has so much to offer. I really want to improve, and make a difference in all 3.

People hating on Matty for solely wanting to compete in aim trainers is the equivalent of arguing with a powerlifter or runner for not wanting to compete in other sports. You can appreciate the quality of speed or strength without having the best runner or powerlifter compete in professional sports within other dynamics. And yesโ€ฆ - aim training helps in game aim. - aim training is not the exact same thing as aiming in a game. This concept that mouse movement is different from trainers to games is asinine. The idea that other variables play a huge impact in game aim that aim trainers donโ€™t offer is also valid and indisputable. Both ideas donโ€™t have to conflict, and this is coming from someone who appreciates in game performances more than aim trainers. I still find value in both and acknowledge the partial overlap, and you can too. @Matty_OW keeping doing you bro.
If you want to test my aim, we do it in the aim trainer. That's where aim is the only factor- not recoil control, not game knowledge, not positioning.

The Fight Against Cheats: Keeping Competitive Integrity To begin, I disagree with the idea to accept things for the way they are simply because, "cheaters will always exist". Its comparable logic to claim, we shouldn't seek out treatments options for a disease like cancer as a complete cure hasn't been developed. Reducing its prevalance is an effective method we should always strive for. Competitive integrity is a burden that should be sought after by players alongside gaming companies, and not solely in the world of esports. Admittedly, I have little understanding of anti-cheat mechanisms, an issue not helped by the lack of transparency from gaming companies to their respective communites. It isn't like there is even public information about the quantity of cheats that run rampant, even in estimation. We have no gauge as players as to how effective these anti-cheat programs truly are. The cheating industry is a multi-million dollar business, and so it makes sense it has found its way into every competitive queue. I say this without criticsm on the effectiveness of anti-cheats or the ability of developers in creating secure code. Infact, I think they have done a great job with specific titles, and if it weren't for the security already implemented. It would not even be possible to climb to higher ranks, which is a luxury we still have. Rather, I wish for there to be an agreement between both parties, for more extreme measures. I believe restrictions are the best optionโ€ฆ 1- ID verification, limit the number of accounts per person. This approach could greatly lower the amount of cheating but also smurfing, a common complaint from players. 2- More hardware bans, most cheaters will take comfort in knowing all they need to start fresh is a new email and password. Make the barrier to reentry much more difficult. 3- More legal action against cheaters, unpunished actions will only increase the activity of cheats. Most cheaters are young, stupid, and rightfully terrified by the law. Leverage this advatange by setting more examples. These measures, in tandem with a community and company commitment to competitive fairness will greatly reduce the total number of cheats and experinces ruined in gaming as a whole. We have the ability to help the situation, and while we are far off from completely solving it, that doesnโ€™t mean our environment cannot be improved.

This is going to sound cliche but, โ€œconsistency is keyโ€ A few quality hours of practice everyday, means far more than the equivalent in giant binge sessions. Breaks are good but should always be planned, if they are random or sporadic you will confuse your need for rest with laziness.

Nervousness is tricky. You will get advice downplaying your inability to control symptoms of anxiety. Anxiety isnโ€™t beaten, it is remedied. The single best approach to help your nervousness, is preparation. A preventative action will be your best aid. Ranked? Tournament? Tryouts? It is all the same. Prepare not for the feeling but for the task to diminish the feeling to a point of insignificance.

7 facts about Sleep & Gaming ๐Ÿ’ค 1๏ธโƒฃ 7 hours+ of Sleep is vital for gaming. Tons of literature showing how BASIC cognitive task suffer from just 1 missed cycle of REM sleep. 2๏ธโƒฃ Caffeine past noon will likely affect your sleep negatively, due to its long half-life. This depends how fast you as an individual metabolize caffeine. 3๏ธโƒฃ Sleep can dictate your ability to focus to a degree that impedes your reflexes, and decision making and hurt your rank, or aspirations as a player. 4๏ธโƒฃ Sleep deprivation isnโ€™t something you can self identify accurately. Just cause you feel fine doesnโ€™t mean you necessarily are at optimal cognitive functioning. 5๏ธโƒฃ Yes you can be a great player with poor rest, but that player can always be better with higher quality sleep. 6๏ธโƒฃ There is plenty of ways to help you fall asleep. - Warm Baths, to drop your temperature (1 degree temp drop is a requirement before you can fall asleep) - Cutting blue light to increase melatonin production - Supplements with a great safety profile such as magnesium Theronate and Glycinate. 7๏ธโƒฃ Sleep makes improvement possible. The bulk of learning actually happens during sleep there is no getting around this.

It is up to you. What you do as a warm up and your attitude when doing so largely affects how the rest of your day will go in ranked. When I take a very focused approach early on, itโ€™s a mentality that fuels my improvement for the rest of my games that day. Set the tone.

This is some pretty niche advice for hardcore gamers specifically those with eye pain / ocular headaches. Every morning submerge your face in ice water. It will reduce inflammation and after a few days it is pretty unlikely you will feel eye pain from computer strain again.

Just want to clarify some thing. 1) your eyes donโ€™t have to be open 2) you should still take other measures to rest your eyes 3) you want your entire face submerged right before water can get in ears 4) if it hurts thats normal take your head out for a minute and repeat.

There is nothing more futile in gaming than mindlessly playing and expecting different results. Focus is the forefront of improvement. Cognitive change (neuroplasticity) isnโ€™t like physical activity. You need a lot of focus during practice, simply participating isnโ€™t enough.

There are many drugs that are being used to gain a cognitive advantage, it isnโ€™t possible to test for all of them with the way esports is right now. โ€œ๐™Ž๐™ค ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™ค๐™ฅ๐™ก๐™š ๐™˜๐™–๐™ฃ ๐™œ๐™š๐™ฉ ๐™–๐™ฌ๐™–๐™ฎ ๐™ฌ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ ๐™˜๐™๐™š๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™ง๐™ค๐™ช๐™œ๐™ ๐™˜๐™ค๐™œ๐™ฃ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ซ๐™š ๐™š๐™ฃ๐™๐™–๐™ฃ๐™˜๐™š๐™ง๐™จ?โ€ Depends on your definition of cheating, and your opinion will largely depend on what said drug is actually even doing to a player. I can assure you this, there is no pill that will raise your awareness in game dramatically while simultaneously raising all other aspect necessary for gameplay. Most supplements that help focus, can actually be a detriment in other areas, that is why โ€œbiohackersโ€ create stacks of supplements to try and raise a few different areas of their cognition that are often believed to be synergistic. โ€œ๐™Ž๐™ค ๐™ฉ๐™–๐™ ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™ข๐™ค๐™ง๐™š ๐™™๐™ง๐™ช๐™œ๐™จ ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™š๐™›๐™›๐™š๐™˜๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ซ๐™šโ€ Yes, but it isnโ€™t an issue. The most important thing is to have a balance of ever mental aspect in game. Even with stacks it is hard to achieve a perfect balance of everything you need mentally to create the same effects as โ€œsteroidsโ€ for physical sports, here are a few ways enhancers can actually be worse for you. โ–ซ๏ธIf you have too much physical energy, it can make you impulsive. โ–ซ๏ธIf you have to much mental energy, it can cause you to overthink and make mistakes. โ–ซ๏ธIf you have an increase in reaction time, it can cause you to be over confident and take fights based off your odds mechanically but not situationally. Obviously there are drugs that help, some that help verbal fluency and critical thinking which is rarely a bad thing but listen to me when I say this. No drug or stack even comes close to the thing most gamers and pros neglect in the first place, lifestyle. Thatโ€™s right sleep, diet, and mental mechanisms are far superior. This is seen in the literature (studies) as well as most anecdotal reports. So yes, drugs in combination can be helpful but they arenโ€™t as effective as a healthy lifestyle which is more often neglected than drugs are taken.
So when is Adderall going to be prohibited in Esports ๐Ÿง ? Some of us are playing for 6 + figures prize pools, organizers should take the initiative and create a better competitive environment

I have not quit content creation. Scary thing to take a year off to get better at making content. Ultimately, I am giving advice to you and that's a responsibility I will not take lightly. Hope all my past supporters can respect that if not, I'll just have to win you over.
