GunZ: The Definitive Tutorial - Advanced K-Style Guide 2025 - Animation Breakdown & Analysis

The Only Tutorial You'll Ever Need For GunZ The Duel Ever

There's so many moments where I'm playing GunZ, have someone try to explain a "move" to me, show it to me, tell me it's name, but then explain NOTHING about it. Or it's just another move, done in a very specific way. My intent with this video is to create a reference point for any future tutorial videos that might pertain to certain animation interactions or properties, or for any average user who runs into weird animation bugs that they don't understand, and hopefully try to explain and/or make sense of how and/or why it's happening. In hopes to help newer players try to make sense of this whole learning experience, I've broken down almost every animation within GunZ (I missed a few odd ones, mostly related to Quest and Dagger, but this is a K-style tutorial not a D-style tutorial)

Please, feel free to pause, rewatch, and take advantage of Youtube's fancy slowmo feature if you want to try to watch what inputs I'm doing as I'm performing certain actions, if there's something you don't understand about, for example, the cadence of timing your inputs, which is a big part of learning GunZ
