Full disclosure, tapping A/D to stop can be more intuitive for people and help them time their shot better. I'm taking issue with coaches explicitly stating that doing this tap is somehow WAY FASTER than letting go. It's not. It's also not going to take a player from Gold 1 to Immortal 3. It's ridiculous.

It’s like .09 milliseconds faster? Right? (Something like that) In a game where those milliseconds matter assuming your opponent is as good as you, is what makes the difference a lot of the time. You’re right, it wont take you from gold to immortal 3, but it is WAY faster when you are playing competent players. Might not be useful to golds, but learning the mechanic early on is how you perfect it. Not practicing this technique is how you fall behind.

Aim. Gamesense. Positioning. Swag. Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Silver Nation attacked. Only the Diamond, master of all four elements, could stop them, but when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Diamond, a boomer named jpc. And although his aim skills are great, he has a lot to learn before he's ready to save anyone. But I believe jpc can save the world.

There’s been so many guides I’ve watched where aim routines and counter strafing is the first thing mentioned or advertised in thumbnails. I went from Bronze 2 to Plat 1 in 3 acts playing 3 games a day. Not because of counter strafing or a pro aim routine but because I self reflected and watched my vods back. I got comfortable on 1 role and did intentional research on how to get better at that specific role

I had a really short career in CS. So for me this is just in my muscle memory. But what I notice is that in CS counterstrafing doesn't decrease aceleration. It outright freaking stops you and you are virtually accurate the moment you do it. In Valorant you still have the deceleration period so it does make less sense to practice.

Hey there! I'm the "Radiant Coach" getting roasted in this video. Just going to respond with my insight on counter-strafing and it's value in Valorant. Generally speaking, a counter-strafe provides less frame advantage in Valorant compared to in a game like CS:GO where it's completely necessary. But frame advantage isn't always the only thing that matters when learning a technique. As a coach, I think you understand that as well. In my opinion, the biggest advantage of learning counter-strafing in its current form is to understand the value of control when it comes to mastering movement (or any skill for that matter). Another thing to point out that I feel like is extremely important is that you mention the value of dead-zoning, without connecting deadzoning to the counter-strafe's frame advantage. Dead zone in itself is apparent in all movements, which means that if the counter-strafe improves the frame by ~10 frames, then dead-zone kicks in 10 frames faster as well. You can test this in the range with the movement error turned on, where you'll see that as you stop movement, deadzone is still reached before full stop. This 10 frame advantage might not be "necessary" but it's always better to have this frame advantage than to not have it. Just like how some people switch to 1600 dpi over 800/400 dpi for the very miniscule ~1-2ms of input latency. Competitive advantages are built upon small efficiencies. At the same time, tapping the opposite key creates a strong physical cue to: 1. Reset your movement 2. Create a mental connection with the timing based on a physical cue. At the end of the day though, I think that the most valuable part is, in my opinion, tied to the insights you gain from mastering counter-strafing as opposed to the movement technique itself in all situations. Kind of like a wax-on wax-off situation. My video covers most importantly the insights necessary to become fully in CONTROL, and that's where mastery really is. Also, I believe that a player who can master their movement fully can easily rise to Immortal 3. That's my honest and truthful opinion about what's important in Valorant and what's secondary. In isolation? Maybe not, but in reality, it's never in isolation. Let me know if you have any questions!

Heyo! I'd love to debate you on this live on my stream. Can you reach out on Discord? Christian#0009 (case sensitive). I don't see how practicing tapping A/D to stop your movement helps at all in practicing deadzoning/jiggling. I see these as two different mechanics. Valorant is my first tac FPS, I learned how to jiggle just fine and still find counterstrafing to stop movement unintuitive and clunky.

What a waste of time to even reply here. It already had been tested fully frame by frame, the real advantage gain here is 0.02. Lets leave it to everyone else to debate, as a content creator both should do a research before posting such long notes or even a video on whether or not counter strafe. If people think they can become immortal 3 by this 0.02 advantage let them be. Also I will have to point out that beside the 0.02 sec advantage, @royalG HAVE VERY GOOD POINTS on the genre of tactical shooter game which is "At the same time, tapping the opposite key creates a strong physical cue to: 1. Reset your movement 2. Create a mental connection with the timing based on a physical cue."

Counter strafing in Valorant doesn't really do anything because the declaration in Valorant is different than that of CSGO's. While it makes sense to do it in CS because you slide for a split second after you let go of a movement key and your shots are inaccurate as long as you are in a state of movement. In Valorant, you stop as soon as you let go of the key and your shots become accurate in an instant so counter strafing isn't necessary. The only reason people do it in Valorant is because of the muscle memory they carried over from CS. And I always say this, game sense is as important as aim if not more. What most people don't realise is that having a good game sense means you can outkill your enemies in a lot of situations. Knowing your angles, holding off angles in certain situations, map knowledge, utility usage, all these things contribute.

yes jiggling benefits from deadzoning (aka true counterstrafe where you don't press both A/D at same time), so you can't really counterstrafe jiggling, you will be very slow (unless it's a "true counterstrafing"). However, counterstrafing still work in valorant if you do wide peek where you have considerable momentum, it will definitely make your fba sooner. Absolutely EVERY radiant player both use cs'ing and deadzoning situationally and can explain why (because I've asked them during their live and on discord).

There is! Counterstafing gives you accuracy after 80ms instead of 90ms! In reality everyone actually takes closer to 120-130ms to shoot to obtain consistency with their shot accuracy. Humans aren't robots - we're not capable of clicking consistently 80-89ms after tapping a key. There's a reason I said there's no "Real world" difference. There is an objective difference. However I can stop + shoot as fast as literally any professional player you name who uses counterstrafing. For all intents and purposes this means the mechanic is relatively worthless.

Honestly strafe shooting and counter-strafing is essentially the same, but, like you said in the comment, it is not a mechanic that would rank you up to fucking immortal. I wouldn't say counter-strafing is COMPLETELY useless, as it is slightly faster if you want to keep moving after your first strafe shoot, and it is more convenient to just need to hold down a key rather than press it again.

Peeking and holding angle are the most important things in valorant i think.Can you please make a proper guide to master these techniques?

Is it any slower if instead of letting go of the key I'm moving in I just press the opposite st the same time and hold both to stop cause that feels way more comfortable and what I have been doing

Nope! Do what you're comfortable with. That works just fine.

Genuine question: if you're running at max speed, isn't it a decent bit faster to counterstrafe? I see it might be true for a step or two, but can you test if it's any quicker to counter strafe at max speed? Thank you

OD26 will be releasing an in depth video on this with objective evidence. Make sure you watch that video. However I can tell you now that the answer is "they're the same", I watched him test it live on stream.

Counterstrafing is still useful regardless especially when it comes to peeking.

exactly, yes jiggling makes almost (non significantly) the same delay to have an accurate shot however there's still a noticeable difference in the movement itself, that's to say in the crosshair momentum which is definitely useful to move + aim more accurately and to peek more efficiently

Thank you for this. It is such bs to claim that counterstrafing will help with drastically improving aim when positioning and gunfight hygiene are far more important

So is there any disadvantage to counter strafing? I already do that, since i got the habit from cs and never stopped

How does deadzone aiming compare to a counter strafe to continue in the same direction you were originally moving? As in, rather than holding D then holding A and shooting in the deadzone while you are changing directions, you hold D, hold A for a split second to get the accuracy and then continue moving in the same original direction by holding D again. Is that just deadzone aiming anyway? Is this something you would want to do, or is the movement from changing directions safer? It seems like it would be good to break the pattern, but at the same time I feel as if you spend a little more time stationary with the double direction change. Editing to add: Technically you don't even need to let go of the originally held key, just tap the other one for a second to get the accuracy then let go of it to continue on the same direction.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I use the word strafeing instead of jiggling. Strafeing I believe is the correct term you were looking for.

What I heard is that IN VALORANT, counterstrafing only speeds up the "stopping" action by 1 FRAME. 1 frame doesn't sound like a ton of difference to me.

Funny enough yay mentioned he counterstrafes. He might've intuitively learned jiggle but he counterstrafes like in CS:GO.

thing is though even in csgo it doesn't make much of a difference if any either because you are still swaying when you counter strafe just learn to jiggle an you will be efficient in both games
