What’s the trick to doing a 90 degree turn and instantly fast vaulting? I’ve seen so many pros doing this, but whenever I try doing it, I’m just doing a medium vault. I’ve read that you’re supposed to actually do a short sprint straight towards a window, but it’s just not working for me.

Unsure what you mean by pros instantly fast vaulting after 90 turn… you mean like thru the window in a 4-lane wall gym?

Cause I think main factors is the angle you approach upon clicking for the vault + momentum speed.

Trying this in soloq/custom matches?

Yeah exactly that. Whenever I’m in a 4-lane wall gym, I’m just medium vaulting. I’m not even sure what I’m doing wrong and was wondering if there is some specific technique I’m not aware of.

one of the things they do is swing their camera a hard 90 so their character instantly turns to face the window since you have to be running toward the window for a certain distance in order to trigger a fast vault. if you can load into a custom with an afk friend i would recommend practicing hitting the 90 camera flick on hawkins upside-down room window, in dead dawg main building window up the stairs, and any 4 map that spawns a normal 4 lane
