Movement is one of the staples of Team Fortress 2, it is very characteristic but at the same time very influenced by games like Quake and Team Fortress Classic. Explosive jumping mechanics give the slower classes much higher mobility and increase the pace of the game. This makes it a much more complex game than it first appears, as a player has to master not only deathmatch ability and gamesense, but also the different movement and jumping techniques.

== Speed ==  
Speed is measured using hammer units/sec. The standard is 300 hu/sec or 100%. This is the speed of the Pyro, Sniper, and Engineer. Moving backwards reduces the speed to 90% of what it would be otherwise. Note: If you strafe while moving backwards, you will move at full speed (diagonally, not backwards). Crouched movement becomes 33%

=== Sentry Jump ===
 
=== Sentry Jump ===
There are two types of Sentry Jumping; Sentry Rocket Jumping and Bullet Jumping. Using the Wrangler and a level 3 sentry, the [[Engineer]] can shoot his sentry's rockets at his own feet, propelling him into the air like a regular rocket jump.  By quickly switching to a different weapon and right-clicking on his sentry, he can bring the building with him to build in unexpected places. Bullet Jumping can be done with any level sentry, along with mini-sentries. Bullet Jumping is the act of using the knockback from the damage received from sentry bullets to propel the Engineer. Bullet Jumping is useful when running mini-sentries or when a sentry is at level one or two for making short leaps such as onto the roof of [[cp_gravelpit]] B-Point or the balcony of [[koth_arctic]].

=== Explosive Surfing ===
 
Any class is capable of timing a jump with an enemy's projectile and using it to their advantage. This is a common practice among Medics, who often surf away from damage and to the safety of their team.

=== Bullet Surfing ===
 
Bullet surfing is harnessing the knockback from being hit with bullets for a speed boost. Typically it is achieved by crouch jumping while moving away from the source of the damage.
