How do b0i Settings Support His Playing Style?

The gear and settings all tend towards enabling b0i’s playing style. The unique attributes that make him different during his competitive days were boosted by a combination of his settings and gear. We’ve seen the number, but how do they all come together? We’ll discuss how his settings support his playing style.

Firstly, his style involves being an aggressive initiator or anchor; he can do both effectively. It also includes being a strategic player with flexibility and adaptability. Another strong characteristic is having a strong fundamental like a good aim and movement.

Aaron’s features start with his mouse settings, where the DPI is 800 and sensitivity is relatively high at 0.91. A combination of low DPI and relatively high sensitivity indicates a preference for more speed than precision. Although he has good aim, he is more of an aggressive player that requires speed of movement across the screen.

The effective DPI is set at 728 with scoped sensitivity at 1, which leaves the sensitivity the same even when using a scope. Most players use one as it helps them focus on other aspects of their games and reduces distractions.

Screen resolution is kept at a good 1920 x 1080, so images are crisp, especially on the full-screen setting with a 16:9 aspect ratio. At this point, he’s ensuring the view isn’t complicated. Consequently, his aspect ratio method is set to fill the screen.

One intriguing part of his video setting is the high texture quality he set, which goes against the performance-boosting low UI, material, and detail quality. While most players turn off their blooms, b0i keeps his on to improve his game effects and make it easier to pick information on the screen.

The feature to improve clarity is turned on while anisotropic filtering is at 16x. All these help him get more clarity even with distant targets on the screen to improve his aim, especially as precision is low.

One of b0i’s key attributes is his solid game sense that involves map awareness, which is why he uses a 1.1 minimap size that is large enough to give clear information but still occupies a small area on the screen. Aaron Thao loves gathering information, so he needs minimal zoom to be at an optimum level. B0i leaves it at 0.9 and turns on the rotate option.

Strong fundamentals also mean understanding movement mechanisms, which is why Aaron makes minimal changes to his keybind settings. He chooses to leave most of the keys in the regular keybinds to reduce confusion when gaming.

Aaron Thao is aggressive, and it shows as he chooses speed with his mouse and sacrifices a bit of accuracy. However, when it comes to performance, he prefers crisp images that support his information-gathering abilities. He also tends to make minimal keybind changes to reduce distractions.
