To pull off the Tap Strafe, perform a slide jump by pressing shift, control and space at the right time and hold one of your Strafe keys, depending on which direction you want to go. A goes left and D goes right. At the peak of your jump, gently flick the mouse wheel scroll up or down while also holding the Strafe key without moving your mouse.

If you do it right, you’ll instantly notice a diagonal pull in the direction you are facing. Once you’ve got that part down pat, move the mouse in the direction of the pull while spamming the mouse scroll and holding the strafe button, and you’ll have successfully performed the tap strafe in Apex Legends.

Despite the game’s competitiveness, players still invent ways to discover new skills and features that puts Apex Legends’ mechanics just a tad above other battle royale games.

Apex Legends is also expected to make its way to mobile sometime this year.
