your aim is not as good as you think it is start doing targeted kovaaks practice if you really care about aiming on scout
also the clockwork guide doesn't really hold up to today's standards but it's good for starters

1. it's , to change class

3. scout is the best class in game (not counting medic)

We lack a lot of context. perhaps record some POV demos and upload them here
In console, use "record x" with x being a random title for the .dem file. "stop" will end the recording and put it in your tf folder

in scout 1v1s, if you struggle, you most likely are not using your movement in tandem with controlled aim, or nerves make you panic and go for weird flicks etc. There's also a certain cadence to scout 1v1s in how ppl move and the timing of shots. That comes with experience

110 hours is relatively little considering playing pubs puts you against multiple ppl that have 2000-5000 hours due to how long TF2 has existed

I'd be happy to have a look at your gameplay and give feedback. I'm no MGE player so I can't help you gain much elo if that's what you're after, but I have enough experience in comp and pubs to give you general advice

So like when you aim (move mouse crosshair on enemy) and press your left mouse button (it say "click") then enemy have red numbers and disappear on screen.

Bro is getting absolutely cooked in mge in every clip DO NOT follow this video you will have bot movement

Imo your movement should be the primary focus unless youre shooting dudes in the back or ubered. playing the right distance in fights to abuse any advantages you have is also important. you want to be able to aim at someone no matter what movement you are doing so just play the game while considering aim as the LAST factor and you will eventually develop the muscle memory you need for small accurate flicks.

^^ this applies unless you have some bad aiming habits, like doing big mouse spasms for every shot or not moving your mouse in straight lines. If you notice these try to minimize them and focus on controlled, straight line mouse movements on your flicks. IMO mouse control is not the primary reason why people miss shots in TF2 and reading your opponents movement takes far more practice, but mouse control is still sometimes a limiting factor for newer players

didnt dolphin rider have a video where hes playing ammomod and talks a lot about the philosophy behind effective scout movement and the connection between good movement and consistent aim

Finnish people act this way because their winters are harsh and they are lacking in vitamin D
