keyboard Basic Movement Controls

Movement is the foundation of Krunker gameplay. Mastering these basic controls will give you a significant advantage over your opponents.

Pro Tip: Combine movement keys for diagonal movement (W+A for forward-left, W+D for forward-right). This makes you a harder target to hit!

gps_fixed Combat Controls

These controls handle all your combat actions, from shooting to reloading and switching weapons.

Important: Krunker has infinite ammo, so you never need to worry about running out of bullets. However, reloading can still be useful for certain weapons or situations.

directions_run Advanced Movement Techniques

Once you've mastered the basics, these advanced techniques will make you a much more difficult target to hit.

Bunny Hopping

Bunny hopping is a technique where you jump repeatedly while moving to maintain momentum and speed. This makes you harder to hit and allows you to move faster than normal walking speed.

Strafing

Strafing involves moving left and right while moving forward or backward. This makes you a moving target that's difficult to hit, especially when combined with jumping.

Wall Jumping

Some classes (like the Runner) can wall jump by pressing the jump key while touching a wall. This allows for advanced movement and escape routes.

Crouch Jumping

Combine crouch and jump to reach higher places or fit through smaller gaps. This is especially useful for accessing elevated positions.

mouse Mouse Settings & Sensitivity

Proper mouse settings are crucial for accurate aiming and smooth gameplay.

Mouse Sensitivity

• Low Sensitivity (1-3): Better for precise aiming, especially at long range
• Medium Sensitivity (4-7): Balanced between speed and accuracy
• High Sensitivity (8-10): Faster turning, better for close combat

Mouse Acceleration

Most competitive players recommend disabling mouse acceleration for consistent aiming. This ensures that the same mouse movement always results in the same cursor movement, regardless of speed.

DPI Settings

Your mouse DPI (Dots Per Inch) affects sensitivity. Lower DPI (400-800) is often preferred by competitive players for precise control.

settings Customizing Your Controls

Custom Games

Create custom games with friends to practice specific skills:

• 1v1 duels for aim practice
• Movement-only games for mastering advanced techniques

Progressive Learning

Don't try to learn everything at once. Focus on mastering one technique before moving to the next:

2. Learn to shoot while moving
3. Practice strafing and bunny hopping
4. Master advanced techniques like wall jumping

• Ignoring Cover: Use walls and obstacles to your advantage

Aiming Mistakes

• Over-flicking: Make small, controlled movements rather than large flicks
• Not Leading Targets: Account for movement when shooting at moving targets
• Ignoring Recoil: Learn to control weapon recoil for better accuracy

Combat Mistakes

• Reloading at Bad Times: Only reload when safe or necessary
• Not Using Secondary Weapons: Your secondary can save you in close combat
