FINAL NOTE:
If you are not very confident with your keyboard and mouse or shooting skills, practice with a more fast paced tactical shooter like Insurgency. Practicing playing battle royales like PUBG or Apex will also help practice your shooting skills and inventory management.
If you don’t want to play or purchase any of these games, this aim trainer will also help you:
