//Shoulder Charge// is <abrams_mm> Abrams’ second ability. In it, he charges forward and tackles opponents in his path. During the charge, turning is restricted. Once he hits a wall, it will stun the opponent. You are able to cancel //Shoulder Charge// at any time during the charge.

When you charge forward with no opponents grabbed, your speed is set to 689 u/s (17.5 m/s). With opponents grabbed, speed instantly increases to 1102.38 u/s (28 m/s). Speed does not increase when strafing, unlike normal movement.

When cancelling //Shoulder Charge//, you are able to keep the momentum. When cancelling deliberately for speed and movement, it is called a **Charge Cancel**.

When in the air, you are able to instantaneously change your direction by using //Shoulder Charge// in the desired direction. This can be used to redirect for [[universaltech:wall jumps]] and building traversal.

To maintain the maximum amount of speed from //Shoulder Charge// on the ground, charge, cancel then [[universaltech:jump]] or [[universaltech:slide]], depending on the situation. In the air, you do not have to input anything afterwards to maintain the momentum.

For a quick burst of speed, jump, //Shoulder Charge// then cancel.

You can cancel at any time during //Shoulder Charge// to maintain the maximum amount of speed; the entire duration of //Shoulder Charge// sets you at a fixed speed that doesn’t change.

**Charge Cancelling** can be used as a situational escape option when enemies are nearby, or when in combat. Since //Shoulder Charge// starts in the direction you are facing and doesn’t factor in your current velocity, you can **Charge Cancel** to suddenly change directions.

To execute, use //Shoulder Charge//, cancel, then jump or slide afterwards to maintain speed.
