why does primmie do this?

#1

ive noted something odd that only primmie does (from my observations)

when holding an angle, he starts to sort of aim before the enemy even appears on the screen. its very subtle but still noticable so you have to pay attention to see it. i dont think his hand is "shaking" because i play a similarly high sens and i dont do that. Regardless of that, his aim is pretty steady anyway so i dont see him doing it without purpose. it some examples:

https://youtu.be/mbkTgDY17gM?si=WHbbHrXVhUkg97Ky&t=157 (moves to the left)
https://youtu.be/mbkTgDY17gM?si=LvKg8xsxXGYKZE40&t=292 (idk)
https://youtu.be/RScauyEuc48?si=yUkojPBMx09p_d5E&t=240 (moves to the right)
https://youtu.be/f6SvUFK69xM?si=2ONSzOF1l1lZyIL5&t=71 (moves upwards)
https://youtu.be/f6SvUFK69xM?si=Y-x8BTaVI_Dy_jfD&t=169 (on jett and cypher)

What do you guys think why is he doing that? It might just be completely random/his hand shaking but i feel like there is an intention, even when its just an ergonomic one

The way he takes fights is just insane to me. He's obviously the best itw at 1v1s

I think there are certain characteristics that make primmie just so much better than everybody in the world. I dont think its reaction time tho, but rather his general fundamental understandings of the game. A lot of people actually have approximately same reaction time as primmie but primmie knows how to utilize it perfectly

Seems pretty clear to me he's just adjusting how he holds the angle based on audio, you can see he starts with his crosshair close to the wall because they might dry peek/shift peek, but when he hears them running he gives his crosshair more space from the wall because he knows they'll have to wide peek

The thing is the correction is so subtle it looks as if its unintentional

I mean, obviously lol, he already knows how much he has to distance his crosshair from the wall, he's not actively thinking about it

In narrow angles he just adjusts his crosshair so that he aims on the head. Also it's possible that he heard him sprinting and assumed he would peek directly close to the wall. It's a basic mechanic coming from cs (and that comes from quake) If you shift while you peek directly facing the wall, you are seen before you can seem them (cuz you can closer to the angle then they are to an angle). It also doesn't make sense to sprint while on the far side of the corridor cuz you will look slower. (The further you are, the slower everything is.). He hears him sprint, assumes he is close wall, adjusts crosshair accordingly

Only if you would put so much thought into your own gameplay.

My guess is he anticipates wider swings if they haven't swung for a while (and based off of footsteps)
