'''Dashing''' is a fundamental part of movement in Deadlock. Dashing allows you to quickly evade attacks, to reposition fast and efficiently, and is a basic building block for other basic and advanced movement techniques.

Dashing takes one bar of [[stamina]]. You can dash both in the air and on the ground; when done in the air, it is called an '''Air Dash'''. You are only permitted one Air Dash per jump at the start of the game; this can be expanded to two with the {{ItemType|Armor}} {{ItemIcon|Stamina Mastery}}.

While in the air, you have access to one other direction to dash to; down towards the ground. When you dash towards the ground, it is called a '''Down dash'''. To down dash, double tap the duck key; once you press the duck key, you have a ''28 ticks'' (''0.44'' second) window to press it again.<ref>Tested using exec_async, using the amount of space between +duck inputs.</ref>

''0.3'' seconds after starting a grounded dash, a window to execute a [[Dash Jumping|Dash Jump]] will open for ''0.2'' seconds,<ref><code>abilites.vdata</code>, <code>m_flDashJumpStartTime</code> and <code>m_flDashJumpEndTime</code></ref> during which the stamina bar flashes a light blue. This window is solely activated by starting a grounded dash; if you leave the ground after initiating the dash, you are still able to dash.

Dashing on the ground always sets your velocity to a fixed amount. Air Dashing is an ''impulse'' instead, meaning it can stack or conflict with prior momentum.
