Slowdown, or slow for short, is a gameplay mechanic that decreases the speed of a player for a set amount of time. This effect can be applied to a player when under attack by certain weapons or as a penalty for using a certain item. In addition, players' movement speed is naturally slowed to 90% of their base speed while running backwards and to 33% of base speed while crouching (see Classes for specifics on how much each class is slowed).
With the exception of the Sandman baseball, which has a minimum range requirement, slowdown effects always apply at least a small bit of slowdown regardless of the distance.
