Right Click CPS Test

How to take the right click CPS test

1. Pick a test length. 5 seconds is the standard; 1 second is a burst test and 100 seconds shows how quickly your finger tires.
2. Right click inside the box. The countdown starts on your first right click, so there is no ready-steady-go delay.
3. Keep right clicking until the timer reaches zero. The live counter shows your right clicks per second as you go.
4. Read your CPS (right clicks divided by the seconds), your peak second and your rank. Press Reset or right click again for another round.
5. Left clicks and middle clicks are ignored inside the box, so you cannot pad the score by accident.

What the results mean

Right click CPS is the number of right mouse button presses per second, averaged over the test. Most people are slower with the right button than the left: the middle finger is weaker than the index finger, and the right switch on many mice is stiffer because it is used less.

Peak CPS is your fastest single second, and the graph shows each second of the test. A right click score that is far below your left click CPS is normal; a score of almost zero while you are clearly clicking means the button is not registering, so read the fixes below.

Why test the right mouse button?

In Minecraft, right click places blocks, eats, uses bows and blocks with a shield, so bridging and "god bridging" speed depend on right click CPS as much as the left button matters for PvP. In shooters the right button aims down sights, in strategy games it moves units, and in everyday use it opens menus. A right button that misses one press in twenty is annoying in a menu and costly in a game.

The test counts the raw pointerdown event for button 2, so every press the browser receives is counted, including presses so fast that the operating system would merge them into a double click. The context menu is blocked inside the box only; it works everywhere else on the page.

How to right click faster

Rest the heel of your hand on the desk and the pad of your middle finger on the button; a hovering finger is slower because it has to travel. Press from the finger joint, not the wrist. Jitter clicking works on the right button too: tense the forearm so the hand vibrates, but keep the sessions short. Butterfly clicking (index and middle finger alternating on the right button) needs a mouse where the left and right buttons sit close together. A mouse with a light optical switch and a short pre-travel helps more than any technique.

Common problems and fixes

Right clicks are not counted

Keep the pointer inside the box; clicks elsewhere do not count and open the normal context menu. If the counter stays at zero while you right click in the box, the browser is not receiving button 2. Try another browser, check that no mouse software has remapped the right button, and test with the mouse tester.

The context menu keeps opening

The menu is blocked inside the box. If it still appears, left click once inside the box so the page has focus and try again. On a Mac, Control + click is sent as a right click and is counted.

My right click score is much lower than my left

That is normal. The middle finger is slower and the right switch is often stiffer. Compare right click scores with other right click scores, not with left click leaderboards.

Some clicks are missing or doubled

A worn switch can bounce and register two presses, or miss a press entirely. Run the double click test: it checks the left button by default, and ticking the right button option checks this one.
