Ten seconds, as many clicks as you can, divided by ten. That is the whole thing. The format is named after the Kohi Minecraft PvP server, where hit rate in a sword fight depended on how fast you could click, and the ten-second count became the number everyone quoted at each other. The server is long gone; the benchmark outlived it.
How our version counts
- The first click starts the clock and is counted as click one. There is no free warm-up press.
- We count every press your browser reports and filter none of them out.
- At ten seconds we stop and divide by ten, to one decimal.
Which means the number is partly about your mouse, not just your hand — worth knowing before you read too much into it.
What is a good Kohi CPS?
We used to answer this with "around 6–8 CPS", which is what nearly every click-speed site says. We were repeating folklore. There is no study behind that figure and no disclosed methodology anywhere — it is a number that got copied between websites until it looked like a fact, and we should not have passed it on.
Here is what can actually be stood behind. Biomechanics research on maximal finger tapping puts the sustainable ceiling for a single finger at roughly 5 to 6.5 taps per second, dropping as the finger tires. So ordinary clicking with one index finger lands in that region, and that is the honest baseline. At the top end, the only independently adjudicated figure we know of is the Guinness World Record for most mouse clicks in one minute: 760 clicks, about 12.7 per second, held for a full sixty seconds. Anything higher that you have read is a community claim from a short burst, not a verified record.
Above roughly 8 CPS, you are almost certainly not tapping — you are using a technique. Jitter clicking uses a controlled forearm tremor, butterfly clicking alternates two fingers, and drag clicking uses friction to chatter the switch. All three produce figures well above the tapping ceiling, and all the numbers attached to them are self-reported by players rather than measured by anyone.
Frequently asked questions
How long is the Kohi Click Test?
Ten seconds. That length is the whole convention — it is long enough that a lucky burst does not dominate the score, and short enough that fatigue has not really set in. Our version keeps it.
What is a good Kohi click score?
If you are clicking normally with one finger, the honest reference is the 5–6.5 taps per second that tapping research finds a finger can sustain. If you are meaningfully above that, you are using a technique, and the technique is doing the work. Beyond that, the tiers we show you are labels we made up for the game, not measurements of anything.
Does clicking faster actually help in Minecraft PvP?
On the servers this test came from, yes — that is precisely why it exists. But combat mechanics have changed since, and how much raw click rate matters now depends entirely on which server and which version you are playing. Treat "more clicks means more damage" as a fact about one server's rules rather than a general truth.
Is jitter or butterfly clicking against the rules?
The line most servers actually draw is automation, not technique. Hypixel's published rules ban autoclickers and macros — anything generating clicks you did not physically make — and say nothing against clicking oddly with your own hand. Check the rules where you actually play, and do not assume a forum post is policy.
Why did my CPS suddenly jump?
Look at your mouse before you take the credit. Mechanical switches wear out and start to chatter, registering one press as two, and because we count every press the browser reports, a failing switch quietly inflates your score. On an older mouse, an unexplained jump is usually a fault rather than a breakthrough.
