You'll get used to it :P
Anyway, I don't think I read any dretch tactics here, so here're a couple:

Never ever EVER walk straight to the enemy, always strafe left and right (or if you think you can handle it, jerk your mouse left and right while strafing and walking forward, although I tend to miss my target that way :( ).
Always aim for the head, aim slightly above the head for a headbite, which does 96 damage to a human without a helmet.
Wallwalk and jump, though again, keep on strafing, this tactic is easier to learn.

If you want more tips, try reading the tips written here: http://forum.clanzerorisk.com/index.php/topic,963.0.html
(Shameless promotion :P)

Good luck :)

A dretch with strafing movements in its approach is, all things considered, much easier to avoid getting hit by. In fact, if a human sprints backwards from a dretch that has too much sideways movement, the human will outrun the dretch. Getting kills with dretch is not about simply not getting shot. The most important thing is the speed with which you get to your target. Trying not to get shot while you do it is an obvious must. However, if you move extremely randomly, it doesn't matter how many shots you avoid, you WILL have terrible general results. You can't just wallwalk and short jump randomly and expect to get a kill.

Maybe we could use some demos of good dretching, I think it could be pretty beneficial.

Dretching has been my favorite alien tactic. I get screamed at less this way. When I drop rant, my team hates me. IDK why, I earned the rant, but apparently using them to get just one kill is not good.

Alternatively, my dretches get 2-4 kills per life.
My in-game name is )CGC( ChaosSquirrel.
Hint: The Basilisk is the most powerful Alien.
Yay! Finally someone agrees! Or was that sarcasm...

Tyrants should protect advanced goons when they are sniping.
Also snipe when other aliens are distracting humans

If by 'protect' you mean 'GTFO the way of'.

I tried to set my mouse's sensitivity much higher, and its great! I had 5, yesterday i had 10, and today i have 15, and its great! It's better to chase or dodge, much better.

High mouse sensitivity is for people who have shitty mice. Buy a better mouse.

This may be about alien tactics, but since we're on the topic of mice: Faster mouse movements helps a ton with human dodging, if you use cursor dancing (which I find to be extremely effective, though I don't see many people using it to such an extreme.)

Have you checked out some of the guids posted by people on aliens??? if you havent you should different people with different techniques, mind find some that you like or modify your own slightly.

while all these poeples tips are helpful, going out and learning them your self is much more beneficial, when you have the hang of the aliens and understand there basic workings and how to use them then you start to refine technique and learn new ones.

o if your looking for guides for aliens i think there is some on page 2 and the mercinaries guild does alot of that stuff.
