Console Changes

• Jump D's hitbox has been improved to hit downwards. It should whiff less often on short opponents.
• Light Dokugiri (qcb+A) has faster recovery. When it hits, you can follow up with Head Crush (hcf+K).
• Adjustments to Super Dropkick:
  • Charge times have been increased. Previously, the charge times were 4 seconds for level 1, 8 seconds for level 2, 12 seconds for level 3, and 16 seconds for level 4.
  • Invincibility has been removed.
  • Guard crush damage has been reduced.
  • Can no longer be connected after a guard cancel attack.
  • Knocks the opponent away, preventing mid-screen follow-ups.
• Giant Bomb Feint (db~f+P > AB) has faster recovery.
• EX Raiden Bomb's (dp+AC) forward movement has been reduced.
• Raiden Bomber (qcf qcf+BD) now has complete invincibility.
