Move Speed

Move Speed is a stat that heroes start with and can obtain more through items. Move speed dictates how many meters per second the hero will move.

Notes

Heroes will accelerate up to base movement speed velocity from a standstill. While firing, there is a 70% movement speed penalty (which can be mitigated by Fleetfoot). Ivy is the only exception, as she does not incur the penalty while firing. There is no penalty while zooming in. While crouched, all heroes have 4.8 m/s crouch speed not affected by the movement speed penalty, except for Grey Talon and Warden, whose movement speed penalty while firing applies while crouched, becoming 4.4 m/s.

Grey Talon's move speed scales with Spirit Power at x0.014, and Seven, Sinclair and Vyper's move speed scales with Spirit Power at x0.023.

Move Speed is an important stat in overall movement, as it affects how quickly one can reach their destination.

Sprint Speed

Sprint Speed is a related stat that is conditionally added to a hero's move speed when a hero is out of combat for five seconds, and persists until entering combat or zooming in. Zooming in while sprinting resets the player's speed back to base move speed.

Most heroes start with 2 m/s sprint speed and can increase it through items. The exceptions are Lash and Warden at 2.5 m/s, Lady Geist at 3 m/s, and Bebop at 4.5 m/s.

Wraith's sprint scales with Spirit Power at x0.06.
