No Timmy is one of the pro Apex players that actually has insane aim mechanics. His target switching and tracking is far above most players. Most don't though.

Also his game awareness and confidence plays a big role. It's easy to stomp people when you believe you should win every fight you take. Average players usually lack that or their confidence greatly outweighs their mechanics and awareness.

@SchraLpz I think his aim individually is about as good as mine, but I think mine is pretty good when the game works right.

What makes him better is his speed and how fast he moves from one target to the next.

However, what if we take itzTimmy or any other algs player, make it where they get knocked in only 2 hits no matter what gun hits them, the enemies can't be seen half the time, their movement slows down whenever a gunfight starts, and the damage they do is only a tenth of what it should be where a whole clip from a gun does under 90, sometimes only 16 like I had from the nemesis, and many shots go right through the enemy without registering.

I am willing to bet I could defeat any algs player with these conditions in a 1v1 in the firing range pit, yet sadly these are the conditions I play in each day on both switch and pc. Yet, I've learned to work around these things and still get 1 or 2 kills each day, and even won 5 matches this season. I'll bet if I had the advantages these players do I'd be predator and an algs champion.

When I see people not even bother to take cover when they are shot and get hit much more than me yet take little to no damage, maybe just drop a couple shield squares when there getting hit so much it's like a disco strobe going off when you spectate them you know there's a problem.

My rant here isn't to put down itztimmy or any other algs player or youtuber because they are amazing and produce great content. My problem is that the game is bugged and it's holding many players back that should be doing much better, and many are leaving the game for these reasons.

    The game isn't bugged, your pc likely isn't capable or your network conditions are bad. Also you're delusional if you honestly think you'd could beat any algs player. Especially when you have to create a scenario that doesn't even exist in the games mechanics to make that point. Timmy is also an aim demon, watch him play other games or Kovaaks. He's far above the majority of Apex pros when comes to raw mechanics.

      @SchraLpz Way too many people I've talked to are having the same issues with apex, it's not just me. Several people on here even expressed the same issues and about a month ago one left the game even over these issues. My switch and pc play other games perfectly with no problems, so it is only apex having issues like this. Also, I have 1300 hours into the game and in season 19 I was averaging 5 kills per game, I was getting so good that two livestreamers kept requesting me because they both said I knock people faster than anyone else they play with and they had a better chance of surviving a hot drop with me. Once season 20 started my kd dropped to 0.08 and I'm lucky to get 1 kill in a match, 2 is very lucky. Also, it takes multiple clips now to knock someone since the damage is now very low. These issues literally started overnight when season 20 came in.

      Add to that the bad matchmaking that the OP was talking about and the game is now very difficult. I had to change my strategy to now sneak up on people or hit people already cracked since I don't stand a chance fighting like I used to.

      My pc was just purchased a month ago and is brand new and was over 2 grand, I highly doubt my pc is an issue since even older pcs play it and the game is 5 years old. My network conditions have no problem playing other fps games like Overwatch or Star Wars Hunters. The problems are only with this game. Besides, my shots are obviously landing since it makes the sound effect, it's the game not registering the shots. 1 of the 2 streamers I mentioned earlier discontinued her apex streaming and now does fortnite and CoD since she can no longer win matches. People on YouTube that I correspond with in comments sections have told me the same things about these issues as well.

      Also, my point was I couldn't beat an algs player if it was on the up and up, but if you nerf them to the current state that some players are experiencing I believe I could. If 2 shots took them out or they needed 3 clips to knock then they couldn't win either.

        Like I said you're delusional. Averaging 5 kills a game isn't even remotely impressive and only having 1300 hours in the game you likely wouldn't even be on par with Diamond/Master level players. You might be having issues, but you are also no where near as good at the game as you think you are. 

        Also I'm going to assume you're basing your stats off of playing on the Switch, which isn't even comparable to to PC. Switch players are literally the bottom of the barrel in terms of skill.

    I don't know about your iitztimmy. I watched his game but his mouse sensitivity is huge compared to mine. Mine is .77. To turn 180 degrees I need 2 swipes if I do 1.2 I miss all targets. Also I watched on slow motion, his cross of target, but he still scores. So I don't know if I'm having luck with server connection and having lags and other technical issues or if it's something else.

      Yeah he plays on very high sense. Almost twice as high as most people. He also one the few pro Apex MnK players that aim trains regularly.

        This game is not skill based. You can experience on yourself in Firing Range. In games like CS 1.6 you could do head shots without any cheats and aiming, just purely due to your developed skills. In this game no matter how far your enemy 5 meters or 100 of you, you still need to aim to hit him. Otherwise bullets flies anywhere. And aiming is a luck, it's involves preprogramed animation. If your connection with server not the best you have no chance. It's even pointless to use aiming. To me take million years the "aim animation" to react. In general, it's really badly programmed game, from ideas to mechanics. And let's not forget developers continuously changes weapon to the point where none uses them at all. Examples Triple Take, Charge Rifle and just because someone complained about other's skill issues. It's like this game would be just for one type of skilled players. Me in the past developed skill on Longbow, could drop the guy without any gun upgrades with 3 shots from a long distance. But now they changed gun again... It just stupid
