One of the most important mechanics at Apex Legends is tap-strafing , which allows better mobility in combat or during exploration moments. In a very summarized way, it is the best control of the jumps taking advantage of one of the characteristics of the Source Engine. Thanks to this, Players can make maneuvers when sliding, jumping and moving the camera to the left or right.
Usually, the tap-strafing is used to reach a corner in the middle of the fighting. It also serves to make jumps on the walls, overcome a railing and go to another area, among other things. The particularity is that, While it is not a very complex mechanics, it requires the use of keyboard and mouse . As if that were not enough, one of the requirements is that the jump button is configured on the mouse wheel. This to get more advantage of the Tap-Strafing. Usually, all this is accompanied with Horizon, since its passive helps to keep the speed after a very long jump.
Now, Respawn Entertainment is not very happy with the Tap-Strafing. Citating textually, the publication on Twitter, is inaccessible, lacks readability / counter-game and is exacerbated by movement skills . So things, the Tap-Strafing will abandon Apex Legends on patch 10.1, although we do not know precisely how it will. Much less if it will really be removed or the balance team found a way to do it less abusive.
It should be mentioned that console users will not be very affected by this. The NERF is designed for PC players who usually use mechanics in matches. As expected, the affected population expressed its discontent in social networks and crossed this as the worst mistake that can make Apex Legends.
The respawn Battle Royale is very agile, it requires you to move around and take advantage of both the slides and the jumps on the walls. A good percentage of opinions affirms that eliminating the tap-strafing is to decrease the peak of the game skill. Also, there are signs about why changes go towards mobility and do not look assisted .
At the time of publishing the note, Respawn maintains the posture with the Tap-Strafing and will be in the Patch 10.1 of Apex Legends.
