Sen TenZ Explains Why You Shouldn't Counter Strafe In Valorant

I'm trying out valorant rn since cs2 flopped and I feel like counter strafing puts u at a disadvantage since I still get movement error and I think it's because I'm pressing the opposite direction key. I wish it was the same csgo since it would be so much easier for people to convert instead of having to change a very ingrained habit.

going into Deathmatch, you will see a lot of player doing counterstraffing while shooting, its just so stupid

shoot instantly after stop pressing the key and start moving immediately after shooting instead of pressing a key to slow you down to stop like in csgo.

He's talking about how it doesn't make u stop faster. He's not saying u shouldn't ever counter strafe. It's for movement and aiming with movement keys. Even in his explanation he strafes stop and shoots. And the counter strafe is about moving into amd out of a fightm

shroud is counter strafing lol

So stupid imo, u use counter strafe to have a timing on when to shoot like when ever u press the opposite key ur brain instantly wired in telling u can shoot now, which is faster than actually letting it go. And the thing this guy talking about where u can instantly shoot after letting it go is hard cope, cuz i set a macro to test it out and u guess it the 1st bullet accuracy is dogpoop

Shroud and n0ted has the best movement hands down idc

Demon1 is also not strafing. He keeps repeating on his stream that he just stops.

I came from ow and cs was pretty difficult for me and it wasn't consistent. I watched sodo316 and he explained cs is not necessary, i started doing that and now shots actually go where i aim

I know there no difference but keep in mind tenz is on a wooting keyboard

Instead of counterstrafing, just shoot in the time it takes for you to let go of a and press d to strafe right and vice versa, you start destroying people

ehh im not super crazy about taking a skill out of the game but hey its a different game so ion know

Tell that to Leo lol

I heckin love SenTenZ content.
Keep it up bruh

This guy says one thing one time and does the opposite next time and then says you know what this is better!

eh, I do it bc it keeps my movement going (like decision making) and the enemy has to adjust their crosshair to keep up

Yeahh when he started talking about this I was like huh..... I think I already do this instead of cs counter straffing😭

I feel like people who havent played cs has an advantage since they don't need the concept of counter strafes in valorant.

Demon1s movements really good too

now that he is rocking the wooting this makes more sense but I wouldnt really recommend doing it

how do people still not know this?

Yeah you don't need it if you have cracked aim while me i need it cuz when i miss the 1st or 2nd shot i counter strafe to dodge the bullets.

TenZ is just shit talking he should prepare for LCQ🤣🤣

false, counter strafing is essential

OD26 been saying this and people called him crazy. When i first started the game and people told me to learn how to counter strafe but after a lil testing of my own as I played more and more I soon realised there's virtually no difference.

OD26 is laughing smwhere

its even more effective when you have the wooting

I’ve been doing this, it’s because in val your movement speed is instantaneous but in csgo it ramps up so you have to counter strafe to counter the ramp down but in val you don’t need to

i never knew this wtf, but it feels better to counter strafe so im gonna keep doing it

less is king of this

The game has been out for 3 years, anyone who still thinks counter strafing is necessary is an idiot - if you already have it built into your gameplay from csgo hours then you don’t lose out on using it, but you don’t need to learn how to do it as a new player like you would in CS, as it’s a core aspect of the gunplay & movement in cs

It’s only 2ms faster if you counter strafe

Bro then he tried counter strafing and he was actually amazed.
