What is CPS?
CPS stands for Clicks Per Second. It measures how fast you can click your mouse. The human average is around 6-7 CPS, while gamers who practice reach 8-10 CPS and pros exceed 10-12 CPS. CPS is especially popular in Minecraft PvP, where a high click speed gives a combat advantage (more combos and hits per second).
Clicking techniques
There are several techniques to boost your click speed. Each reaches a different CPS range and takes more practice:
| Technique | Difficulty | Average CPS |
|---|---|---|
| Regular clickingClassic clicking with your index finger. The natural way to click. | Easy | 4-8 |
| Jitter clickingTensing your forearm to make the finger vibrate and multiply clicks. | Hard | 9-14 |
| Butterfly clickingAlternating two fingers on the same mouse button. | Advanced | 12-20 |
| Drag clickingDragging your finger across the button to register many clicks at once. | Extreme | 20-100+ |
Tips to improve your CPS
- Practice the jitter clicking technique: tense your arm muscles to vibrate your finger
- Use the butterfly clicking technique: alternate two fingers over the mouse button
- Make sure your mouse has a good switch with short travel
- Practice regularly: click speed improves with daily training
