Evaluating The Effects of Aim Lab Training on Filipino Valorant Players' Shooting Accuracy

摘要

Being an MMOFPS gamer is quickly becoming a lucrative career option as professional FPS e-sports player, FPS game content creator, and FPS game streamer. However, to be able to have this as a career, an aspiring player should improve their in-game skills where shooting accuracy is one of the main ingredients for success. The study focused on Valorant, the fastest rising FPS e-sport of 2020, and Aim Lab, the best known FPS training software, with 6 Filipino nationals as participants. For 1 week, the participants were subjected to train on Aim Lab's recommended training set every day before playing Valorant. The results of the study concluded that doing the 6 recommended training on Aim Lab, for a total of 6 minutes every day, before playing Valorant for 1 week led to a significant improvement in the average damage output generated per round. The study also concluded that Aim Lab, as an FPS training software, is deemed acceptable by the participants as per System Usability Scale standards.
