What is jitter clicking?
Jitter clicking means tensing the muscles of your arm and wrist so that your hand shakes, and letting that shaking press the mouse button for you. Done well it is much faster than tapping with a relaxed finger; many players reach roughly 9 to 13 clicks per second this way. It is tiring and it takes practice to keep the aim steady while you do it.
What the result shows
- CPS and peak, as in the normal test.
- Average gap: the average time between two clicks, in milliseconds. 100 ms is 10 CPS.
- Spread: how much the gaps vary. A small spread means an even rhythm, which usually means you can hold the speed longer.
- The bar chart: one bar per click gap, in order. Bars that climb towards the end show your arm getting tired.
How to jitter click
- Grip lightly. Rest your index finger on the button with the other fingers holding the sides.
- Tense the forearm, not the finger. The vibration should come from the arm; the finger just transmits it.
- Start with short tests. Use the 5-second timer until you can keep the rhythm, then move up.
- Stop if it hurts. Jitter clicking strains the wrist and forearm. Take breaks and do not train through pain.
