So strafe-running (or skiing) speeds you up in Legions. This is probably surprising to no one, and I'm likely wasting my breath, but I haven't seen or heard any recent discussion on the matter.
I've done a little experimenting with flat surfaces and noticed somewhat of a difference. The outrider seems to accelerate roughly 14% faster. The Raider gets 7.5% and the Sentinel gets around 6%. The bonus shows up while traveling through the air as well. I'm not sure about strafe-skiing up and down hills, as it's very difficult to pull off, but I would imagine the affect would be similar.
14% percent doesn't sound like a lot, but it could mean a speed of 114 instead of 100, which can sometimes be the difference between making it home with the flag or cratering.
It's probably not easily fixable, and probably isn't that big of a deal, but I figured it might be worth discussing a little.
