Hi All. New to Valorant (no CSGO experiece either) and currently I am getting a lot of success within Gold Rank by crouching before shooting. I feel like it's making my bullets land exactly where my crossair is placed. My question is whether you veterens see any problem with this way of playing and whether would benefit from counter strafing before crouching?

​

Side question: when walking forward and straging (eg. holding W + D) is it ESSENTIAL to press both S + A to counter strafe or could I simply press S?

​

Thanks again, you guys have been very helpful in me learning this game!
