A better comparison would’ve been two octanes, not an octane and a horizon.

[ironhanssmithy]

i've already started using this in my ranked games and the look of confusion on how im faster than my octaine teammate is always so funny to see lmao

[tomtommerson]

It's honestly movement techniques like these that make apex my favorite fps. You see games like quake and cs:go have there own and as a mostly console player I can finally have a game to practice this stuff with

[Shiek]

To everyone saying it's broken... yeah, in the technical sense that it's a bug, but is it OP? Absolutely not. Literally anyone can do it, it only works on hills, you can't shoot while doing it, and it's fun.

[Zarkoneous]

Punch boosting is so much fun. And they should keep it as a mechanic since it helps with rotations and anyone can do it

[itssslashhere]

That’s honestly soo sick they did this by mistake hopefully it never gets removed cas it’s not a broken mechanic, it’s just fun.
People in the replies are going at it I was saying it’s not a broken mechanic, but respawn has been known to remove some mechanics like they almost removed tap- strafing and b-hop

[colyrne]

I like it because it gives me something to do while I'm moving. (I don't have an heirloom yet)
11/10 score, and that's before factoring in that it's fast.

[TheOfficialPotatoTY]

I use this everywhere. Even on the smallest hills. Even if it’s just 1 punch. It’s so nice

[creeper]

If you slide jump than kick the wall nearest to you you can redirect your movement similar to a weaker wall jump, and extend the distance you go.

[Ridlay_]

Love new movement tech, movement is king in this game a lot of the time (of course you still need to hit shots) and it’s just fun and interesting.

[aarizyahiya]

this is going to change games forever XD.
BIG FAN

[PotatoSNake]

sliding down a hill casually with a rare skin, heirloom, stiming, and a little bit of jumping



Rare as in hard to find not the level of rarity (though it may be)

[land_crock]

Its crazy how we found super gliding before punching the ground while sliding

[ItsAweeb]

You can do tha!?

Damn that looks useful and fun!

[BlessedSeal]

I like that the punch boost is almost faster than zip lines and I always use it because sometimes I hate zip lines because they are slow

[uniworkhorse]

The water punching mechanic is changing my life tbh

[trippleshot]

Just a tidbit of info but I’ve tested the punch boost on revenant and it seems to send him about 2x as far compared to other legends like wraith. My guess would be that his increased crouch movement speed also increases the velocity of the punch boost because he remains crouched.

[andrewdemilton]

It's about its engine.
In Half Life 2 you can do ABH (Accelerated Back Hopping), and so this thing does not work properly, but it's exist on some of legends like Horizon of course.

[ConfoundJ]

Ngl I went back into apex to try this weird mechanic after 3 weeks, had loads of fun zooming around showing pubs

[Shaun-fjrx]

It's so much fun to do, off of crates, hills walls, a simple but very rewarding mechanic. I hope it's here to stay.
