Box Step Dash Speeds
There's a sometimes massive difference in box step speeds depending upon which direction your character is facing, something of which directly ties into the fact several characters can change thier direction-facing with 4B or other moves. Each character has a different animation that plays depending upon wether they dash in the direction thier model is facing or away, and this animation determines how quickly you can cancel the step into a forward or backdash. This is sometimes really noticeable: for example, Gerelt's sidestep to his back is always a twril.
| Character Step | Earliest Step Input | Forward Dash Cancel Occurs |
|---|---|---|
| Gerelt (towards back) | 7 | 15 |
| Gerelt (towards front) | 11 | 19 |
| Hayato (towards front) | 8 | 16 |
| Hayato (towards back) | 14 | 23 |
| Zelkin (towards front) | 13 | 21 |
| Zelkin (towards Back) | 12 | 20 |
