I know of soo many PvPers who love to W-Tap, and many of them talk about W-Tapping in their videos. However, when I try it out in, for example, PotPvP, the only thing that happens to me is that my aim accuracy decreases a bit and I trade hits with the other player.I see many people who just spam tap the W key, and I also see others who will press W, wait for a second or so, then tap W again. My question is, during a PvP battle, when do you want to W-Tap? What is the main purpose of W-Tapping? Is it to take less knockback or to have a reach that FEELS farther? Also, what is the proper way to W-Tap? Spam tapping, or tapping in intervals?
TLC,

I've been told its after you get a hit you should tap again but I just spam it and it seems to work fine for mePosted on 09 May 2016 - 11:22 PM
tap w about a second before when you think you'll land a hit on the player. wtapping deals more kb. when im getting a combo i usually just spam itLast edited on 10 May 2016 - 05:12 AM by MadeInBarbados

The main thing I always try to remember is not to w-tap before the first hit. Start w-spamming or w-tapping right after you get the first hit, but if you begin before, you're opening yourself up to be combo'd very badly.Posted on 10 May 2016 - 04:29 PM
Dont spam w, but tap it before youre about to hit them.Posted on 11 May 2016 - 07:43 AM
This is my way of wtapping and I do think this is the right way. You tap w when your opponent turns red. :]Posted on 15 May 2016 - 10:01 AM
Here are just some general tips for w tapping in general-DO NOT spam your w key, w tapping is meant to allow you to gain distance from your enemy while still being able to cause damage, spamming it makes it useless, only spam in hit trades as i seem to take less knock back when I do that.
-Time your w taps, typically I would try to do it while the other person is running at you to knock them back and start a combo.
-There are more ways that just w tapping to get the same effect, you can try blocking right before you start hitting, w tapping just resets your sprint to deal more kb and there are more ways that w tapping to do that.
Heres a helpful video that should tell you all you need to know about w tapping

There are much more effective ways of w tapping that rarely any people know about but the way I learned for beginners is tapping w when they enter the red stage when you get a hitPosted on 15 May 2016 - 01:37 PM
From a kohi player's perspective, there's many ways people time w tap. As some above me said, they w tap as soon as your hit lands, or before your hit lands. Don't spam it like they said above me as well.My w-tapping is more for players with relatively high ping as I play on a constant 200ms. I would tap W before the hit, and after the hit has registered. I remember making a W-tap mod for the kicks and giggles and this is basically how timed it would be and it was effective for my level of ping and latency. Just depends on you, so if you have 120ms or less just tap W as soon as you think the hit will register.

what nookaxe and Tiszo said are what I do and what works the best for mePosted on 15 May 2016 - 07:03 PM
I try to w tap before the hit registers, but there is not one specific way to do it. Remember it is just another way to reset your sprint. It is just the fastest way to do so. Practice and try to learn your knockback. The best players have learned their knockback, and how to use it to their advantage. Good luck.Posted on 15 May 2016 - 08:07 PM
I let go of my w and go to s then do some a d stuff w and s again boom some whacky ass comboworks 30% of the time, worst thing to happen is you exchange
Its probably me not doing it right

Don't wait a second. W tap when you hit someone, not before or after. I am a kohi player with 1325 elo no debuff and on badlion 1803 elo

I dont w tap … Now i feel like an idiot..Posted on 16 May 2016 - 04:28 PM
@RexerMC not everyone W-Taps..@Everyone Else I have my sprint button as Q so after I get 1 hit I strafe to the right whilst holding W and Q continuously then get a hit again, if the opponent didn't get a hit on me I spam W and Q and it works just fine for me…
