Continuous lurch strafing on Axle's nitro gate?

Unfortunately, I'm not able to provide gameplay footage, but call me insane, yesterday I've met people that were lurch strafing on Axle's tactical like crazy (one of them was octane, so maybe it can't be done without stim idk). So far I've been able only to tap strafe back and forth consistently w/Nitro Gate but lurching continuously would never work even though I can execute it normally. Am I tweaking, is this technique even possible and if it is, how to execute it properly?

Edit: I think I should specify that by "continuous" I mean going through Axle's tactical, getting the boost and lurch strafe BACK onto her tactical and, basically, repeating those steps

1-3-1 grip in the long run?

So I've finally decided to incorporate lurch strafes into gameplay and while I can do them relatively consistently, I just CAN'T shoot while lurch strafing. I've been using 1-2-2 grip throughout all my life so far. I've had ideas of binding shooting to LAlt or smth but I doubt it will do the trick.

I tried 1-3-1 in shooting range for a while and for now, it's quite messy for me. Lack of ring finger on the side of the mouse impacts stability, overall I feel I'll need a lot of time to get used to it. It's not that terrible, but it's like learning how to ride a bicycle backwards.

So, this question is mostly for those who has already switched from 1-2-2 to 1-3-1. How much time has it taken for you to switch? Has it impacted your aim a lot (in a bad way, because it's partially my case) or you remained consistent? Do you incorporate 1-3-1 grip in every other videogame now or still stick to 1-2-2 in some cases?
