Gameplay updates explained With the strong prevalence and potential reward of reaction tech chasing (rtc) in the current meta, some major buffs were deemed necessary for the defensive options; while it should remain a disadvantage, it shouldnt be to the extent that follow-ups are almost guaranteed with minimal effort. The hope is these changes to both the wait before a movement takes place & a decrease in the time it takes for an action will be enough to balance the scales.

Gameplay updates explained

Dashdancing in the previous patch we attempted to bridge a gap between having to start up a run from standstill & going into an initial boost out of dashdance. Now the properties have been retooled to allow a dash to receive an initial boost at all times, provided speed is low enough to warrant it, while still requiring some degree of initial commitment to reach max speed. Consequently, this makes dashdancing no longer have a designated cap on when a dash attack can start, simply reach maxspeed to do so
Hurtboxes didnt have the level of accuracy to character models that we were satisfied with, so now every single character has hurtboxes that fully encompass their models. Combined with the alterations to the z-axis calculations that allows hitbox/hurtbox visuals to not be locked to the z-axis, players will now have the ability to see with complete certainty where a character is positioned in 3D space
There were some inaccuracies in how the landing lag floors were handled across characters, with some having the ability to recover from an aerial far sooner than others under the same minimum landlag conditions. This interaction was not intended, and has been uniformly addressed across the entire cast
There were several moves across the cast that didnt have the block direction reflect the moves activated direction. This has since been addressed & every move should now be blockable by holding against the direction of initiation.

Gameplay updates explained

Dashdancing was a highly requested feature that almost made it into the initial release, but the tradeoff of dash attacks made it too overbearing & the time constraints put the feature on the backburner. Now that theres a dedicated cooldown period for dash attacking out of dashdance specifically, the feature is ready to run
Projectiles bouncing indefinitely was a consequence of those specific projectiles not having proper despawn functionality period, so fixing that issue consequently makes them not bounce forever. Like Mikeys down special jump exploit, this is something wed love to make a feature in the future
The DI change will mean that combo trees will have much more variety now, as the opponent being comboed now has more control over where theyre launched after a hit. Because this change has pretty significant ramifications on balance inherently, we've opted to hold off on making many balance adjustments beyond it for this patch
The Aang down special buff is emblematic of the design philosophy of not wanting to strictly and explicitly nerf a character. Our aim is to avoid patches where a character receives only nerfs that isnt tied to some general bugfix
The Mikey nair adjustments make the move now function as a nair should, instead of the slow-mo auto-combo fodder it was previously. The hitstun scaling will make the move less egregiously combo potent at lower percents, but still have the potential to confirm into kills at high percents. Adding hitstun scaling to the majority of moves in the game is on our to-do list
The knockback changes to Lucy/R&S/Danny make those specific moves no longer kill at ridiculously low percent, but the buffed scaling ensures kill potential at higher percent
