Maybe stop quitting as soon as you lose one match and instead invest time in learning the game. You will get trashed in any competitive game if you don't put some effort into it.

Also, look up guides, watch pros play. It is amazing how in 20 hours of active effort you can become better at the game than some people spamming matches for 500+ hours. It took me like 5 hours in CS2 to learn the recoil pattern of the AK/M4A1 and the basics of counter strafing, I instantly went from silver to gold and passed by several people with 1000+ hours on the game at silver.

Just install invincibility mods
Or
Just watch the game being streamed then lie about beating it like the rest of /v/

You shouldn't be relying entirely on reflexes, you should be pre-planning. That's probably why you're losing. You really can't expect to react to anything with less than 10 frames of animation reliably.

Stop playing nu-MH slop. Classic MH relies on pattern recognition and positioning.

I can..I'm an elite pro gamers. I'm a self-made millionaire from winning tournaments and playing for pro teams.
I just stream now, but I won't post it here, so don't ask.

reflexes are trainable but they are largely genetic and if you lost the genetic lottery sorry its ogre. women and autists with long reaction times are about par. you simply will never win.

Keep playing.
The vast, vast majority of reflexes is being mentally ready and prepared for something. This can mean both thinking about the thing, and having your neural pathways generally trained to react to something in a specific way.
The difference between the first and ninety-ninth percentile reaction times among young males are not enough to stop you from playing these games entirely.

Reflex is an eventuality of deep understanding. Understand the mechanic of said games, reflex will comes naturally, after some times.

Before that... on yourself... reflect...

No. Reflexes are dependent on how fast your brain can process information and send commands signals to your muscles to respond, you Downs Baby.

I'm not saying you can't react to something that fast, most people just can't do it reliably. Most people would need to be expecting a certain thing and be ready to react in a certain way, which rewards prediction.

Reaction time is not a defining factor in most games unless you have super dog shit reactions. Like unironic old man
reactions at 800ms or worse.

Most "unreactable" attacks are considered at 300ms or faster. Games that actually utilize these types of attacks tend to be fighting games. You're expected to predict these attacks, not "react" to them. They're meant as a tool.

As for action games, especially ones with RPG elements like Monster Hunter and Soulslikes, you can literally just overpower mechanics like these with your build. Not a single end game Monster Hunter fight is a reaction test unless you uronically rely on iframes as your main source of defense. I.E. you're playing a pure DPS build with a crutch weapon like Longsword.

What does time attack have to do with reaction speed? It's optimization.
