Movement Speed is an attribute that measures the rate of mobility per second. All heroes have a base speed of zero that may be enhanced by speed up effects or slowed down by slow down effects. This is the basis for calculation: Movement Speed = Basic Movement Speed x (100% + Speed Up Effect % - Slow Down Effect %). Attack Speed may be utilized as Movement Speed though the two are not the same. Here are the Top 10 Mobile Legends Movement Speed Heroes according to the current meta.
