Need help deciding Sensitivity

Hello guys, i’m having problem with my sens i used to play really high sens then i started going down and ended up with 2 very good sens.

in Overwatch i played on both 800 DPI 5.66 and 400 DPI 5.66 the difference between the both is with 800 DPI my flick is so much better but my tracking is really bad while with 400 DPI and 5.66 my tracking is super natural but my flick is really bad.

should i stick to 800 DPI or 400 DPI which one need muscle memory if i stick to 800 DPI will my track get better? or i should stick to 400 and my flick will get better?

which one need time for muscle memory Flicking or Tracking?

Generally, you must be going with higher dpi and less in game sens. If you have like 200 dpi and 15 in game sens it causes something called “aim jitering”. It’s what it’s name says. Your tracking is more jittery.

On the other hand, it depends on the hero you play. For example i use higher sens on genji and lucio than mccree because they need to be able to track targets and for lucio it helps me with wall-riding whilst mccee needs precise aim and accurate flicks and can’t have his rectile flying across the screen.

I play on 1700 dpi with 8 in game sence on genji, 9 or 10 on lucio and 7 on mcree.

bonus tip, tanks like rein and winston need higher sense in general. cuz… no aim and fast reflexes

If you have a good sensitivity, you shouldn’t need to flick. Just try around with sens’ and pick what you like.

I would go with 800 5.66 because I tend to have a really hard time to play against tracers when I am on my sens which is 800 3.2 so if you went 400 5.66 you will probably have a horrible time playing against tracers. My advice however would be to go somewhere inbetween where you can track and flick, but if I had to choose inbetween the two I would definately go with the higher sensitivity because it won’t limit you when you need it.
