Headshot Tips

The drag motion

Fire first, then pull down in one short, consistent stroke. Long, slow drags let recoil push your shots high; twitchy drags overshoot past the head.

Which values to tune

Adjust these two before touching anything else.

• Red Dot: controls close-range drag precision
• 2X Scope: controls mid-range headshot correction

Practise at one range

Pick a single distance and repeat fifty drags. Varying range every attempt prevents your hand from learning the stroke length.

Testing your drag stroke on a real phone

Mark a fixed distance in training ground using a wall or crate as a reference point, fire a full magazine at a bot from that exact spot, and count how many rounds land on the head rather than the chest. Repeat the same test after any sensitivity change to see whether the change actually raised the count.

Common mistakes with drag technique

A drag that is too fast tends to punch through the head and land shots on the shoulder or above, which players often misread as 'sensitivity too low' when it is really a stroke-speed problem, not a value problem. A drag that stops the instant it feels roughly right, rather than completing a consistent short pull each time, produces inconsistent results even with perfect sensitivity, since the inconsistency is coming from your hand rather than the numbers.

How this interacts with weapon recoil

Different weapons kick differently, so a drag stroke tuned for an assault rifle at full auto will overshoot on a semi-automatic sniper rifle that has almost no vertical climb; if you swap weapon types mid-drill and results get worse, that is expected, and it means you need a shorter or gentler pull rather than a sensitivity change for that weapon class.

Where this advice has limits

Drag technique cannot compensate for a genuinely mismatched sensitivity set or unstable frame rate; if your drag lands correctly nine times out of ten in training ground but rarely in ranked matches, look at network stability and frame drops in real fights before assuming your technique itself is the problem.
