FormaL explains Modern Warfare slide-cancel controversy to Dr Disrespect Call of Duty pro Matthew \u2018FormaL\u2019 Piper has explained the already notorious slide-cancel movement glitch to Dr Disrespect, stating that Dallas Empire were the only team to know about it during the early days of Modern Warfare. Modern Warfare has seen its fair share of bugs and glitches since launch, but perhaps none have frustrated professional players as much as the \u2018slide-cancel\u2019 exploit, which gives those who use an advantage in gunfights as they remain in a sliding animation while able to fire their weapon. While Infinity Ward are hard at work fixing their list of snags, the esports community has uncovered a controversial movement exploit which has been a hot topic of discussion of late. Ever since Lamar \u2018Accuracy\u2019 Abedi\u2019s Tweet triggered a debate among pros, there have been two questions on the tip of everyone\u2019s tongue. What is the slide-cancel movement, and who was using it to \u201cstay ahead\u201d (as JKap pointed out)? Dudes knew about the slide cancel (an obvious unintended movement bug) since day 1 and rather than make it public to try to get it fixed, they kept it a secret to stay ahead \u2014 Jordan Kaplan (@JKap415) January 4, 2020 According to NY Subliners\u2019 Dillon \u2018Attach\u2019 Price, slide-cancelling is utilized by pros to draw your weapon a fraction of a second earlier. The Chicago Huntsmen\u2019s main assault rifle player FormaL echoed these words when explaining the crux of the \u201cabused mechanic\u201d to Dr Disrespect. The 2017 World Champion explained the situation to his teammate during the January 7 Code Red tournament, saying: \u201cYou hit a bunch of buttons \u2013 like you slide and you pop up,\u201d \u201cIt basically makes it look like you\u2019re still doing the slide animation, but you\u2019re shooting mid slide animation\u2026 It\u2019s really f**king annoying actually. Every [SMG] player is starting to do it.\u201d Slide-cancelling was a prominent exploit used in Black Ops 4, which allowed SMG players to run riot in close-quarters combat and, as a by-product, the game\u2019s entire meta revolved around it. Now, it has transpired that a similar glitch has made its way over to Modern Warfare \u2014 mere weeks before the Call of Duty League is scheduled to debut in Minnesota. After explaining the movement quirk, FormaL added that it was Dallas Empire, a team that dominated scrims after the game\u2019s release, who first started using it to their advantage: \u201cYou know what\u2019s funny, Doc? The only people that knew about it for a while were Empire.\u201d Of course, the Dallas Empire squad are a talented bunch in their own right, with legends like James \u2018Clayster\u2019 Eubanks and Ian \u2018Crimsix\u2019 Porter guiding youngsters like Indervir \u2018iLLeY\u2019 Dhaliwal to potential greatness. It\u2019s no surprise that these veterans were looking for every advantage they could add to their already-impressive arsenal, but it seems that other SMG players are beginning to learn the trick and are aiming to level the playing field before CDL action begins on January 24.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
