YOUR SENS, ON TRIAL · MOUSE & KEYBOARD

OVERWATCH SENSITIVITY: IS YOUR SENS THROWING?

Five sensitivities around yours, the same targets, about two minutes. The court finds the range where your aim holds up, then tells you to keep it, lower it or raise it.

THE NUMBERS BEHIND THE FEEL

SENSITIVITY CALCULATOR

Your Overwatch hip-fire setting, in real-world units.

Mathematical estimate using 0.0066° per count per sensitivity unit. Horizontal hip-fire only; no scoped or controller conversion. Browser deltas are not guaranteed to be physical counts.

A LITTLE LESS GUESSWORK

GOOD AIM STARTS WITH A FAIR TEST

A useful starting point. Room for your own judgment.

How do I find my Overwatch 2 sensitivity?

Start with your actual DPI and current game sensitivity. Our quick check tests five settings, from 40% below to 60% above yours, twice each with tracking and fast clicks, and finds the range where your aim holds up. If your sensitivity is inside that range, keep it. The deeper check compares a lower, baseline and higher setting with turns, tiny adjustments and finalist repeats. Familiarization happens before scoring.

What does cm/360 mean?

It is the estimated mouse travel for one complete horizontal turn. A larger number means a lower sensitivity. We use cm/360 = 360 × 2.54 ÷ (DPI × sensitivity × 0.0066). At 800 DPI and 5 sensitivity, that is about 34.64 cm/360, or 17.32 cm/180. Your mouse’s actual DPI and input processing can change the physical distance.

What is the difference between DPI and sensitivity?

DPI describes the mouse’s reported counts per inch. In-game sensitivity scales those counts into rotation. Their product is eDPI, useful for comparing settings within the same game. Equal eDPI is a mathematical equivalence, not a promise of identical hardware or browser behavior.

Why do my heroes matter?

Cassidy and Ashe put more weight on flicks, Soldier: 76 on tracking, Tracer on tracking and turns, and Ana on precision and micro adjustments. Unmapped heroes use equal weights. These are declared task priorities, not proven causal rules. Grip never determines your recommended sensitivity.

How reliable is a browser calibration?

The lab requests unaccelerated Pointer Lock input when available. Two measured sweeps at different speeds can estimate browser scale. That check is user measured and does not certify hardware counts or Overwatch equivalence. Without it, the recommendation stays provisional. Focus changes, pauses and poor frame delivery discard the current block. Results are session comparisons, not skill percentiles or clinical confidence intervals.

What is saved or sent?

Mouse trajectories are never saved or sent. Only bounded per-test summaries reach our stateless scoring endpoint; nothing is stored or logged by the lab. Refreshing clears your setup and results. Anonymous product events contain only their fixed event names, with no settings, heroes or scores.
