Now, no matter what surface you're on or what speed you're moving, you will never slide.		To execute, hold the crouch button before dashing or going airborne.

'''Sliding''' is a fundamental part of movement in '''[[Deadlock]]'''. Sliding allows you to gain momentum down slopes and to conserve already gained momentum to gain further distance. Sliding is only available while on the ground. While sliding, a blue trail (green if playing as {{HeroIcon|Vyper}}) will be emitted behind you, with small dust particles on your sides. One unique property of sliding is that ''while sliding, you have infinite ammunition''; this is incredibly useful for combat and maximising {{Tooltip|DPS|Damage per second}}<ref>Very useful for conserving ammo during laning and necessary for bullet carry heroes for the whole game, such as {{HeroIcon|Haze}}, {{HeroIcon|Wraith}} and {{HeroIcon|Vyper}}</ref>.

To execute a slide, move above the required speed threshold (<code>350</code> u/s or <code>8.9</code> m/s) or be moving at any speed on a ramp, and crouch. You should automatically slide.

==== Items that Increase Slide Distance ====
Items with the ''+Slide Distance'' statistic increase the distance covered when sliding by delaying the friction penalty. Slide Distance does not increase speed.
