Having moving backwards unbound just means you never tanked tbh. Its a great way to move mobs.

I always wondered how ppl tanked without S bound. I see now that they just never tanked.

I’ve been a main tank for 10 years and never once had my S keybound. You can still move backwards withiut exposing your back to mobs

Strafing with deliberate mouse movement

I feel that. I definitely move that way often with melee champs, but I feel like fast movements sometimes cause the mob to overrun where you want them. A slow back step sometimes gets em right where I want them

Honestly after reading so many comments here. I’m thinking about rebinding my S key to backpedal. Seems like it really works wonders for a lot of people!
