Tips

• If you frequently bump into objects in-game, the Hermes Shoes' acceleration boost is helpful for recovering your speed.
  • It's also useful for other scenarios, like if you were caught off guard, and you're running away after being revived.
• The acceleration boost allows you to take sharp turns without losing speed, which is helpful for cramped maps, dodging nextbots and general navigation.

• The acceleration of Hermes Shoes can be mimicked by a technique called Speed Bumping, as shown here.
  • Speed Bumping can be done without the Hermes Shoes.
