-**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. You are only available while on the ground. While you are sliding, blue smoke will be emitted behind you, and there will be small dust trails on your sides. Sliding also gives you infinite ammo until you stop sliding; this is incredibly useful for combat and maximising DPS((Very useful for bullet carry heroes, such as <haze_mm> Haze, <wraith_mm> Wraith and <vyper_mm> Vyper.))+metatag-og:locale=(en_GB)

 +**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 you are sliding, blue smoke will be emitted behind you, and there will be small dust trails on your sides. One unique property of sliding is that __while sliding, you have infinite ammunition__; this is incredibly useful for combat and maximising DPS((Very useful for conserving ammo during laning and necessary for bullet carry heroes for the whole game, such as <haze_mm> Haze, <wraith_mm> Wraith and <vyper_mm> Vyper.))

 +==== Items that increase Slide Distance ====
  
 The amount of distance covered when sliding can be increased with items that have the //+Slide Distance// statistic on them. Slide Distance does not increase the speed of the slide, but instead moves the friction increase intended to stop you to a further time, therefore increasing distance. The amount of distance covered when sliding can be increased with items that have the //+Slide Distance// statistic on them.

 **Slide Storage**((AKA Slide Conservation)) is the act of infinitely buffering a slide input for later use. This allows you to slide on objects and ramps instantly without minimal speed. Incredibly small parts of map geometry (e.g curbs, lips of edges) that would be impossible to slide on normally are able to be slid on using Slide Storage. **Slide Storage**((AKA Slide Conservation)) is the act of infinitely buffering a slide input for later use.

 To execute, be airborne (through [[universaltech:jumping|jumping]], dash jumping, etc.) and then hold the crouch button. While the crouch button is held, your slide is being buffered. If you then move down a ramp, fall off a slope or have enough speed, you will begin sliding. To execute, be airborne (through [[universaltech:jumping|jumping]], dash jumping, etc.) and then hold the crouch button. While the crouch button is held, your slide is being buffered. If you then move down a ramp, fall off a slope or have enough speed, you will begin sliding.
 +
 +==== Crouch Storage ====
 +
 +By applying the inverse principles of slide storage, one can instead trigger **crouch storage**((AKA Crouch Conservation)). This allows you to stop on objects and ramps near instantly without any sliding.
 +
 +Crouch storage allows you to hold a crouch while in the air; this allows you to stay crouching after any airborne action (with the exception of down dashing).
 +
 +To execute, hold the crouch button before dashing or going airborne. While the crouch button is held, your crouch is stored. Now, no matter what surface you're on or what speed you're going, you will never slide.
