Core Info:
Redirecting your Momentum 90 degree backwards. By combining different Lurches of different directions. Momentumshift does not natively work on controller due to the absence of Lurch on Controller.
Technique/Inputs:
- Sprint
- Slide
- Let go of forward
- Jump
- Press Left Backwards Right or Right Backwards Left
- Turn your view 90 deg into the direction of your first directional input as you input the directional inputs.
Helpful Tips:
- Tab around your directional inputs in a circular motion in both directions and get used to how that feels.
- Read the Article: “ Universal tips for practicing movement ”.
Use cases:
- Getting around a corner behind cover while you keep looking at where you came from.
Advanced Techniques:
- Mastered Momentumshift: Once you get really good at timing the Lurches you can even turn straight backwards and land in a Jump slide , without having to turn your camera. This is also known as a OG Ras strafe. This only works out of a walk. At higher speeds you need more advanced Lurch strafes .
History:
- Momentumshifts were discovered within a week of the game launching. I remember Mendo being one of the first to use them.
