Since ''Puddle Punch'' affects your teammates, other players on your team can also use Dash ''Puddle Punch''; this can set up gank parties and large escapes. However, your enemies can also use Dash ''Puddle Punch'' for their own movement (they do still take the regular damage).

**Wall Punch Dashing** is considered a staple of advanced Viscous movement, and usually sets up movement sequences. The technique is useful in all stages of the game; during laning phase you can effectively move around the map quicker for ganks; during mid-game this can lead to fast rotates and easy chases, and during late-game this can be used as an escape tool with your team.

If you are in ball form, you travel further and faster. This can be done by either upgrading to the tier 3 upgrade and using Puddle Punch while in ball form, or timing Puddle Punch before activating Goo Ball.

**Air Vent Puddle Boosting**((AKA Jump Pad Puddle Boost)) can allow for large cross lane traversal. By chaining these boosts across multiple air vents, you can travel large swaths of distance, or even the entire map.

''Goo Ball'' is Viscous’ fourth and ultimate ability. Upon activation, you inflate into a large ball and move forwards at a constant velocity((Note that strafing does not increase velocity like normal movement; you will **always** move at this velocity)). ''Goo Ball'' has a radius of ''1.4'' m, or ''55'' units((‘’abilities.vdata’’, ‘’viscous_goo_bowling_ball’’, ‘’BallRadius’’)) and an hurtbox of ''1.8'' m, or ''70.9'' units((‘’abilities.vdata’’, ‘’viscous_goo_bowling_ball’’, ‘’BallHitRadius’’)). The radius increases with ''+Ability Range''.

Upon activation, you will start accelerating to ''445±1'' u/s over the course of a second. While in ''Goo Ball'' form, you have limited turning controls and are forced to always move forwards. You are able to accelerate to ''792.50'' u/s over the course of three seconds by holding (by default) M1, sacrificing turning control for speed. Upon hitting a wall, you pause for a split second then rebound off; if you were accelerating beforehand, you will have to accelerate back up to peak speeds from your base speed.

''Majestic Leap'' (3,200) is a Vitality item. The active ability of this item allows you to leap into the air, then quickly descend.
''{{ItemIcon|Majestic Leap}}'' is a [[Vitality]] [[item]]. The active ability of this item allows you to leap into the air, then quickly descend.


By rolling in ''Goo Ball'', casting ''Puddle Punch'' onto a wall, bouncing off the wall then quickly using  ''Majestic Leap'', you can leap much further into the air than normal. This is called a **Frogpunch**. To execute this, you need to upgrade ''Goo Ball'' to its third upgrade, which allows you to use other abilities and items while in ball form.

To execute, cast ''Goo Ball'', and start accelerating. Be near a wall and cast ''Puddle Punch'' on it in preparation. Bounce off the wall, use  ''Majestic Leap'', then get punched by ''Puddle Punch''. The timing for the Frogpunch is tight. You have to bounce off the wall, cast  ''Majestic Leap''((Majestic Leap should be timed to match the moment of bouncing off the wall.)) and then get hit by Puddle Punch, in that order.

This can be useful for traversing large distances or rotating; you can travel nearly half of the map using a single Frogpunch.
