How To Slide Cancel In COD Warzone & Modern Warfare

Updated Date :

The Slide Cancel technique is a beneficial trick to get an advantage in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Warzone. With Slide Cancel, you can sprint and slide, thereby letting you aim down sights fast and makes your moves tough to track. Many professional players use this and if you don’t, you are definitely missing out. But don’t worry because in this guide, we will explain how to slide cancel in Modern Warfare and Warzone easily.

How to Slide Cancel in Call of Duty Warzone & Modern Warfare

The process is simple to do – first, do a slide while sprinting like you would normally then press the slide button right before it is done. This will help you tactical sprint continuously without losing some stamina, hence giving you a quicker pace. So, to go over it once again, here are the steps to do:

  • Tactical sprint
  • Next, press the slide button
  • Then press the slide button right before the slide ends
  • Rinse and repeat

Performing the Slide Cancel trick in Modern Warfare will give you a significant upper hand over enemies – especially when you are attacking them or when you’re going around corners. You can even escape the gas with this strategy.

PC Players

Make sure to Change Stance/Slide to LEFT CTRL which will ensure that you can do this technique effortlessly. The default is C but changing it will make it happen without hassle.

  • Double tap LEFT SHIFT (Tactical sprint)
  • Hold LEFT CTRL (Slide)
  • Tap LEFT CTRL (Crouch)
  • Press SPACEBAR to become stationary
  • Double tap LEFT SHIFT (Tactical sprint)

Console Players

It can be a bit tricky to pull off on a console as compared to a PC but if you put in the practice hours you will soon master the ability to Slide Cancel even on a console.

  • Double tap LEFT STICK (Tactical sprint)
  • Hold Circle/B (Slide)
  • Tap Circle/B (Crouch)
  • Press X/A to become stationary
  • Double tap LEFT STICK (Tactical sprint)

We recommend changing the Slide behavior from hold to tap. This can be done in Options > Movement > Behaviors. For controllers, go to Options > Controller > Movement. Remember to practice this first and soon enough, you will get the hang of it. Use a powerful weapon along with this tactic and you will see the difference it makes.
