Shift + Strafing question

[Chocopie]

I always hold either Shift+W+A or Shift+W+D when I walk and peek corners but is this not the proper way to peek? I get that you would need to press the opposite direction keys to completely stop, so if Im peeking pressing W+A i'd need to press S+D then shoot to get the best accuracy but can i just stop by letting go of the keys and shoot and have the same effect as pressing the opposite direction keys since im already at a walking speed? or should i get into the habbit or peeking with just Shift+A and SHift+D to get the best accuracy since ill be pressing only 1 key instead of 2 to stop?

Well, to start you shouldn't be walk peaking a spot where you think an enemy can be, you're giving him a huge advantage if you do. And you've heard right, the ideal way to peak a corner is to strafe into it using only the A or D key, and stop yourself with a counter strafe, which is when you push the opposite key.

Counter strafing is the fastest way to stop yourself from moving. And a big mistake people make when peaking a corner is holding W+A/D so you're unable to counter strafe properly.

shoulder peaking is normally the best way to peak a corner but its hard to determine when is the best time to do it.

Remember peakers advantage always goes to the person who can hold the furthest angle from the corner your looking at. Shoulder peaking is a good tactic against an awp in the hope you can get them to take a shot and miss but theres alot of factors that can work for or against you in this.

Rule of thumb you should never peak unless you have some means of backup. One person should peak wider then the other and the hopes for at least some sort of trade.
