Is 22 CPS good?
22 CPS is extreme — achievable with butterfly clicking on a good switch or drag clicking on a suitable mouse shell, and far beyond anything a single finger produces with regular presses.
On the standard 5-second click test, 22 CPS means 110 clicks before the timer runs out. Against a population average of ~6.2 CPS, that puts you ahead of roughly 99.9% of casual clickers.
Where 22 CPS sits
| Range | CPS | How |
|---|---|---|
| Casual | 3–5 | Normal deliberate clicking |
| Average–good | 6–9 | Regular clicking, optimised |
| Fast | 10–14 | Jitter clicking |
| Extreme | 15–25 | Butterfly / drag clicking |
How to reach (and pass) 22 CPS
Sustaining 22 CPS is butterfly or drag clicking territory. Butterfly alternates two fingers on one button; drag exploits mouse-shell friction to fire multiple registered clicks per pass. Both depend heavily on your mouse switches.
Duration matters as much as technique: everyone's CPS falls on longer windows. Holding 22 CPS for a full minute is dramatically harder than for 5 seconds — see the 60-second test.
Does CPS even matter?
In Minecraft PvP, higher CPS wins knockback exchanges. In most other games, this much speed is pure flex — clicking at the right moment beats clicking often. That's why the blocks.pw Smash duel is only 3 seconds long: it measures burst speed where it actually counts, then the other eight mini-games test everything speed can't fake.
