How do YOU strafe? by OriginaI December 15, 2014 at 10:12 PM UTC

So recently I've been 1v1ing some pretty good pvpers, and each of them had a different strafe tactic. 

I'm not telling you to give out what your secrets are, just a shortened up version, like a zig zag strafe then a circle strafe.

Also, how did you learn this strafe? Did you make it up yourself , or did you get some help off a YouTube channel.

if its to hard to explain, then link a video you or another person made using the same strafe :P

Birdy.

Rly tho. I zigzag, not saying anymore than that and what's going to be mentioned. I have my own tactics that I prefer not to give away. 8-blocking I will tell some people how to do. I circle when I 8-block. But I start after I get you in the 8-block so it doesn't matter that people know that. I'll strafe hard to the right and look for openings and I will change up the strafe from there depending on what you do, into a zigzag ofc. If your aim is a bad/off I will cut inside and circle usually.

HappyHolidays December 15, 2014 at 11:12 PM UTC

I have a way but I'm scared people will use it against me... If you're strafing, and pvping the same person again dont strafe the same you did before change it up. I just let my hands control me :P

Please, he no potted you. Anyways, Ik know how to 8-block and that's it. Does that not help other players and give a good example? It also helps players learn the technique if they want. The thing is I have got a lot better since then. I still complain, but my complaints are legit. Kohi was laggy af as well. I was also lagging. I mean it's Kohi .-.

Strafing is literally just going left and right. :P
Not really, there are actually different styles of strafing. Even though it is just moving left and right, the pattern that you move in affects your strafe drastically.

@OP I usually use the Stimpay strafe, as well as zigzag.

I usually go one direction (mostly right) and try to combo them.
Then, once they recover, I go left and try to combo them. 
I sometimes also spam right and left, which works quite well. 
I always block hit when the person is facing me, although I do it very little (I only block when I feel like they're going to hit me; timing is important)

Idek how me being in the lead by several pots each time and potlagging is getting destroyed...but k (it's Kohi...kinda what's expected). Secondly, you have to be pretty decent at 8-blocking to maintain a 10 second 8-block...only reason he got out of it is because I missed the last few hits then he macro's the crap out of me.

But this isn't worth it tbh. In 10ish mins I think I can go on, but I won't be warmed up ofc. 

Zigzag strafes are in all my MC vids...if you watch my Avi and PvP tage trailer, you can see me adjust the strafe at 1:42 or so and the next clip is me zigzagging...plus that 1v1 was two or three months ago when I was still bad and getting pissed at Kohi's retarded amounts of lag (I have no clue why go on Kohi with your lag issues, real or not, when Badlion is amazing now and has little lag for the most part).

Showing your tactics to public, isn't a good thing.

Well the only thing I could say is Cayden strafe.

34th December 18, 2014 at 12:12 AM UTC

Usually I rotate them then just either crit them if their bad or if their good just keep strafing (keeping in mind that while strafing you also need to hit them but not jumping, jumping can make it easier to see where you are going to go).  Hope this helps :D

D00ZiE December 18, 2014 at 12:12 AM UTC

I have a secret straightline technique q:^) (^:p

Mathematical December 18, 2014 at 1:12 AM UTC

I just use some knockback enhancers and strafe with those. Here is how I THINK it works: When you sprint and hit a person, sprint knockback appears. Sprint knockback lets you release more knockback than just standing. But I believe there is a gltich, when you hold your sprint key down and your w key and hit a player, only the first hit is sprint knockbacked, the other hits after just give normal standing knockback. So you got to reset your sprint after you hit. There are 3 main ways I use to reset my sprint are: w release, hybrid blocking, and hybrid sneaking. To w release you quickly release then repress w after every hit. To hybrid block/sneak you quickly right click/shift after you hit.

I use these knockback enhancers (mainly the w release) to do AMAZING circle strafes, straightline, and other random strafes.

On topic: learn how to counter-strafe well. It'll come in time. Blockhit strafes are amazing when used correctly.  
This vid is very helpful: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KsKE_G1v7nU 
You have to develop your own style of PvP though. If you try too hard to copy someone else's style you won't improve. Finding combos that work with your play style is difficult, but rewarding. Don't try to force yourself to preform combos that don't suit your style. My two combos are sprint resets and can both be used while strafing to the side, I much prefer strafe combos than others, with the exception of w releasing, which I'm not amazing at yet. It's the last strafe in the vid I think.

You have to develop your own style of PvP though. If you try too hard to copy someone else's style you won't improve. Finding combos that work with your play style is difficult, but rewarding. Don't try to force yourself to preform combos that don't suit your style. My two combos are sprint resets and can both be used while strafing to the side, I much prefer strafe combos than others, with the exception of w releasing, which I'm not amazing at yet. It's the last strafe in the vid I think.
Still waiting for the 1v1 ;-;

Btw: If we are going to 1v1, can we do it on badlion? ;-;

Can't go today, but I probs can tomorrow. 

EDIT: @ebirdy if you want to watch someone strafe, watch Dualzz (http://youtube.com/user/RedstoneDualzz). And another vid is My Avi and PvP tage trailer. Yeah it's my vid and I'm not trying to advertise, but I really want you to see the very start when I fight DaGoldBrick and watch the way he strafes. (vid: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1oLmj1Ot34o
 No, I am not trying in any way to brag by showing this vid. I'd get destroyed if he jitterclicked. 

Also go to famous and good PvPers channels and try to take points from them. I'd be happy to provide a list if you want :)

I strafe wherever I feels like it or I just dont I really dont make up my own strategies or drive myself nuts over this stuff. :P <---real comment. No need to read on if you're here for the actual topic.
===============Addressing the "other" comments ==================
Typical post in this argument: I dont wanna start a "Flame war" but lets start a flame war. IMO U Rely bad @ games. Now I won't respond until you do or I decide I have more to say to avoid a "flame war". 
If you don't want to start a flame war just stop posting (not saying you're done then coming back moments later with "where you at breh?". You guys really care way too much about this game if you're arguing about who is better at a single aspect of it. How about we just dont comment about our pot pvp skills on a strafing thread and keep the posts to what the original post was about :). If you are reading this and realize "Hey who does this scrub think he is yelling at me!" calm down and realize idc and neither should you.
Please dont respond to this argumentatively, thinking I will respond to you and argue, thus becoming a hypocrite.

the strafe
step 3 drink all pots
step 1 after walk/pearl to ur opponent
slut 4 hit the player
stop 2 hold the spam the w key while holding s and then toggle your click aimbot (kohi is rly bad at detecting hacks)
step 5) once you are about to die/ran out of pots quickly leave the game/combatlog
step 6) join back and tell the man that u were timd out
step 5) rematch
step 8) repeat all steps 1-3 + 5-6 
step 9) watch a bunch of combodombos videos and learn how to pvp
step 11) watching people like cayden will ruin ur pvp skills ok
step 4) if u play on avicus u probably wont learn how to pvp so 
step 9) give up

edit: sotrry for extra details stop 2 is guD?

Run at them then hit them on their right side and from there make your way to the left (if possible jump up and down).  Then just do a to d like everyone else says..

Lokigh December 19, 2014 at 8:12 AM UTC

When I have to take out people who are more decked than me, I usually go left, then instantly start going right into a circle strafe then most of the time I jump through them to confuse them and kill them.

Honestly reading this enlightened me. Like, crap there's allot of techniques.
As for my personal "techniques" *cough* FAILS *cough cough*... they change quite a bit and are based on reflexes and such. Or if I'm eating candy and have a sugar high. I'm trying to learn actual strats  though :P
