What is Run (Dash) Speed?

A character's speed while running on the ground

A character's run speed is their speed when moving on the ground. This is a vital stat in gaining stage control as it allows you to easily move in toward an opponent, gain follow up attacks, perform ledge traps, and chase enemies that are trying to recover from a distance.
