Mixed Flicks: a Valorant flick consistency drill
Mixed Flicks is a Valorant flick consistency drill of 24 targets, a third each at small, medium and wide distances, in random order and in every direction. Because the distance keeps changing, it shows where your hand overshoots or falls short. AimKata’s sensitivity finder is built on this drill.

What does Mixed Flicks measure that other drills do not?
Whether your flick is equally good at every length. The targets come from three bands, 2 to 6°, 15 to 45° and 60 to 130° from your aim, eight of each, shuffled. A real fight does not tell you in advance how far the next enemy will be from your crosshair, and this drill does not either.
What should you watch during a run?
Watch where your first movement stops. Past the target at wide distances and short at small ones is a common shape, and it tells you more than the score does. Make one confident move and at most one small correction.
The usual mistake is reaching for a new sensitivity after one bad run. A pattern across several runs means something; a single 24-target run does not.
How does the sensitivity finder use it?
The finder in Analysis plays Mixed Flicks at Medium difficulty at different sensitivities, using the same target layout for each round so that only the sensitivity changes. Those rounds are not saved to your history, and the finder is part of the Pro plan.
When is this the right drill to run?
After a sensitivity or mouse change, and now and then as a check on your flicks. It is a diagnostic more than a warm-up: 24 targets, a few minutes at most, and then you know which distance to work on.

Mixed Flicks questions
How are the distances split in Mixed Flicks?
Mixed Flicks splits its 24 targets evenly: eight at 2 to 6° from your aim, eight at 15 to 45° and eight at 60 to 130°, shuffled so you cannot predict the next distance.
Does Mixed Flicks tell me my best sensitivity?
Mixed Flicks alone does not, but AimKata’s sensitivity finder does: it plays this drill at several sensitivities on the same target layout and compares the rounds. It runs from the Analysis screen and is part of the Pro plan.
