Meaning throughout the 400ms Lurch window you'll get a maximum of 8 Lurches. Before it was unlimited.\n\nAttached is a video to try to visualize this.\nAnd my best attempt at a 180° Tap-strafe with a simulated version of this.\n\n- Circle strafes (WASD) and momentum-shifts should stay mostly unaffected by this. idk ?\n- Tap strafing will be nerfed and also just feel different. With a bit of learning curve i don't see a big problem here. This attempt is me after 2min of practice.\n\nThis will mostly hit people that have put in the effort to learn advanced Lurchstrafes.\nSince the Lurch strength starts to decay after 200ms you'll only get 4 Lurches at full strength now. \n\nA Bunch of Lurch patterns will become obsolete, the top end will get massively nerfed and you'll have to relearn the timing of whatever is left. \n\nI was not involved in this adjustment to Lurch at all. I was just as suprised as you were when reading the Patchnotes.\nI just got this detailed info from a private but official source.","author":{"name":"Mokey","username":"mokeysniper","avatarUrl":"https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1682122592289800194/TlmHUdlQ_200x200.jpg"},"createdAt":"Mon Jan 06 21:54:05 +0000 2025","engagement":{"replies":41,"retweets":60,"likes":303,"views":118120},"media":{"photos":[],"videos":[{"url":"https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1876382840977227776/pu/vid/avc1/1280x720/9TTF--vzxTtkSMci.mp4?tag=12","thumbnailUrl":"https://pbs.twimg.com/ext_tw_video_thumb/1876382840977227776/pu/img/czybQcOCYTud8skV.jpg","width":1920,"height":1080,"duration":7.95}]}}
