ImperialHal slams \u201closer\u201d Apex pros who use controller exploit to tap-strafe Respawn Entertainment\/TSMPhilip \u2018ImperialHal\u2019 Dosen has called out \u201closer\u201d Apex Legends pro players who use a controller exploit to tap-strafe. When it comes to popular movement techniques in Apex Legends, there\u2019s one mechanic that immediately comes to mind, and that\u2019s tap-strafing. This powerful trick allows players to make sharper movements in mid-air and pull off hard turns in the middle of gunfights, making them extremely difficult to eliminate. While tap-strafing is widely used on MnK, it is banned on controller in competitive as it requires changing the Steam config files to execute. Despite this, Respawn has not made it against to rules to use in pubs and Ranked. Well, ImperialHal doesn\u2019t understand why the devs haven\u2019t banned it completely, and has slammed the \u201closer\u201d pro players who use the exploit. ImperialHal calls out \u201closer\u201d pros who tap-strafe on controller After previously calling out Call of Duty star Anthony \u2018Shotzzy\u2019 Cuevas-Castro for tap-strafing on controller in a Ranked game, ImperialHal has gone a step further, labeling any pro that uses the exploit a \u201closer\u201d. After being asked about the issue on stream, Hal revealed that he doesn\u2019t understand \u201cwhy competitive players are even using the Steam config\u2026 you got to have at least some type of f**king integrity to be a loser and still use it.\u201d Hal also revealed that he\u2019s confused with Respawn\u2019s decision to ban the exploit in competitive, but not make it against the rules in pubs and Ranked. \u201cIf it\u2019s not allowed in competitive, why the f**k is it allowed in the actual game, it just doesn\u2019t make sense to me\u201d. With countless players using the exploit in Ranked and pubs to gain an unfair advantage, it\u2019s easy to see why Hal and other members of the community are frustrated. Whether Respawn makes altering the Steam config bannable in the future is impossible to know, but it\u2019s clear there\u2019s a demand for it. If the game receives a new anti-cheat in the future, that would potentially give the devs an opportunity to enforce it across the board in Ranked and pubs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
