Move Properties

Ground Bounce

Definition: Moves with the property will cause the opponent to bounce off the ground in a comboable state for a certain amount of frames before transitioning into Hard Knockdown. Generally only one Ground Bounce is possible in a combo, using a second Ground Bounce move will instead lead to the opponent hitting the ground in the Soft Knockdown state. However, Down TAC and a few moves can get around this limitation.
Shortened Definition: Ground Bounce moves will cause the opponent hit the ground and bounce in a comboable state for a fixed amount of time.

Forced Ground Bounce

Some of these moves can also hit or be cancelled in specific ways to "reset" the Ground Bounce, allowing a regular Ground Bounce move to Bounce the opponent when it normally could not.

Crumple

Definition: When a crumple move hits a grounded opponent it will cause the opponent to slowly crumple to the floor. When this occurs, they are freely comboable up until they hit the ground, but are considered airborne. Thus the first hit that connects on them will pop them into the air. When they finish the crumple and hit the ground, they are considered in Hard Knockdown for a fixed amount of time before they transition to soft knockdown and can tech roll.
