**Walking** is the most common movement action in Deadlock. Walking allows your character to navigate around midtown.
 
When you start walking, you will begin to start accelerating towards a peak speed which is dependent on character, which can be increased with items ((e.g. <vitality> <color #7CB125><wrap retailsemibold>Vitality</wrap></color> items <item_sprint_boots> <wrap retailsemibold>Sprint Boots</wrap> and <item_enduring_speed> <wrap retailsemibold>Enduring Speed</wrap>, <spirit> <color #E1A0FF><wrap retailsemibold>Spirit</wrap></color> item <item_slowing_hex> <wrap retailsemibold>Slowing Hex</wrap>.)) When you stop walking, you will gradually decelerate to a complete stop ((This acceleration and deceleration towards your top speed can be seen in other Source games, like //Team Fortress 2// and the //Counter Strike// series.)). 

You can also walk while crouching. When crouch walking, you will move at a speed of ''4.75'' m/s.
===== Characters whose Move Speed Increases with Spirit Power =====
Certain characters have move speed that scales with <spirit> <color #E1A0FF>Spirit Power</color> (signified by this symbol: <spiritscale>); move speed increases by a set coefficient that depends on character.((For example, <grey-talon_sm> [[hero:Grey Talon]]'s move speed scales with <spirit> <color #E1A0FF><wrap retailsemibold>Spirit</wrap></color> at a coefficient of <spiritscale> <color #E1A0FF>''×0.025''</color>. If buys the <spirit> <color #E1A0FF><wrap retailsemibold>Spirit</wrap></color> item <item_boundless_spirit> //Boundless Spirit// which grants a total of 40 <spirit> <color #E1A0FF>Spirit Power</color>, he gains an additional ''1'' m/s of move speed.))

All characters have the ability to **Sprint**. Sprinting in Deadlock is a passive action — no further action is required to sprint. When sprinting, you near instantly accelerate up to ''10'' m/s, then gain approximately ''1'' m/s every second above that threshold. Sprinting characters can be identified by the grey speed lines coming off them. You cannot sprint while zooming in using alt-fire ((by default, right click)).

Every character has a base of ''2'' m/s sprint speed except for the following characters:
  * <bebop_sm> [[hero:Bebop]], with a base of ''4.5'' m/s;
  * <kelvin_sm> [[hero:Kelvin]], with a base of ''1.5'' m/s;
  * <lady-geist_sm> [[hero:Lady Geist]], with a base of ''3'' m/s;
  * <lash_sm> [[hero:Lash]], with a base of ''2.5'' m/s;
  * <warden_sm> [[hero:Warden]], with a base of ''2.5'' m/s.

When characters are sprinting:
  * If they have been damaged by an enemy hero, sprint will be disabled for 4 seconds, which can be significantly slower. 
  * If they have been damaged by a non-hero, sprint will be disabled for 0.5 seconds.
  * If they are firing, they will move significantly slower (around ~70% of their base walk speed) until the character stops firing. 
    * With the <weapon> <color #9E6203><wrap retailsemibold>Weapon</wrap></color> item <item_fleetfoot> <wrap retailsemibold>Fleetfoot</wrap>, they will move at their base walk speed if they are firing.
    * <ivy_sm> [[hero:Ivy]]'s second ability, //Watcher's Covenant//, provides <item_fleetfoot> <wrap retailsemibold>Fleetfoot</wrap>'s passive to both her and the tethered teammate.


==== Gaining Sprint Speed from Runes ====
<color grey>__Main article:__</color> [[universaltech:Runes]]

Sprint speed can be obtained by picking up the <rune_movement> Movement Rune above the bridges between the inner and outer lanes. The <rune_movement> Movement rune grants a temporary +''3'' m/s sprint speed buff for 160 seconds.

==== Characters whose Sprint Speed Increases with Spirit Power ====
Certain characters have their sprint speed scale with <spirit> <color #E1A0FF>Spirit Power</color>; this is indicated with the symbol <spiritscale>. The equation for sprint speed scaling with Spirit Power is $ FinalSprintSpeed = BaseSprintSpeed + (Spirit Power \times Coefficient) $
