Patch History

2LK pushback on block reduced (allows for more consistent light chains) 2MP whiff recovery increased 13 -> 15; total whiff animation 21 -> 23 Expanded the feet hurtbox on whiff from frame 6 until the end of recovery Expanded the extended arm hurtbox on whiff; no longer partially retracts on frames 13-15; no longer fully retracts on frame 19 until end of recovery Pushback on block reduced (gives better meaty/DR pressure, but otherwise it is easier for the opponent to take back their turn on block) 2MK starter scaling increased 15% -> 20% 2HK KD Advantage +31 -> +38 (now gives point blank oki after 2 dashes with no PC required) j.HP Juggle Start value reduced 1 -> 0; Juggle Increase value reduced 5 -> 0 (gives more lenient juggles with 2 spraycans) Bushin Prism Strikes (5LP~MP~HP~HK) recovery reduced 24 -> 19 (on hit only) KD Advantage +26 -> +49 and knockdown type changed to a ground bound; allows enough advantage for spraycan setup LP Vagabond Edge (236LP) hurtbox expanded on whiff until end of recovery Aerial Bushin Senpukyaku (j.214K/j.214KK) hitbox on final hit extended upward Shuriken Bomb Spread (22PP) properties changed on the LP+MP and MP+HP versions The 2nd spraycan explosion is now delayed, allowing for staggered pressure and extended bomb juggles No change to the LP+HP version with simultaneous explosions

Drive Reversal - no longer moves backward on the first frame SA1/SA2 - fixed issue where move would not KO the opponent when trading hits

5HP increased forward movement during startup (Range: 1.26 -> 1.41) The edge of the hitbox was raised to make low-profile attacks effective against it 5HK proximity guard box now matches the attack hitbox (bug fix) 2LP Block Advantage -2 -> -1; DR Cancel Block Advantage -2 -> -1; blockstun 8 -> 9 Gains much better pressure after Drive Rush or vs. Burnout 2LK Hit Advantage +2 -> +4; hitstun 12 -> 14 Can now link to 2HP/5MK from Drive Rush or into 2MP/5MP on Counter-hit When spaced out, DR~2LK can be up to +10, linking to 5HP Water Slicer Slide (3MK) first 4 active frames have set recovery; always +1 oH / -5 oB at worse These 4 frames also cause a knockdown on Punish Counter (KD +37), greatly enhancing its use as a whiff punish Hisen Kick (6HK) foot hitbox extended forward and hurtbox reduced; Drive Gain increased 1200 -> 3000 On hit, 1f longer hitconfirm window for CH/PC combo extensions Elbow Drop (j.2MP) will now be buffered when input early in jump arc LP Vagabond Edge (236LP) Block Advantage -5(-3) -> -4(-2); blockstun 19 -> 20 Less pushback on hit, and a different knockback animation occurs when connecting with final active frame OD Torso Cleaver (236KK~LK) combo-only hitbox expanded upward (more consistent 2-hit juggles) Arc Step (cl.236K/cl.236KK) startup 8f -> 6f after Sprint; all medium attacks can now combo into both versions naturally 5HP/5MP now frame trap into Arc step, and 5MK/5MP~HP frame trap into OD Arc Step Bushin Hojin Kick (cl.236K~K) juggles 1f longer on hit; can juggle into SA1 midscreen after 5MP~HP OD Bushin Hojin Kick (cl.236KK~K) can juggle into 236LP, SA1, or SA3 midscreen after 5MP~HP Cannot cancel 236LP into SA3 due to distance Corner wallsplat is slightly higher, removing some auto-timed KD +42 safe jump setups after 5MP~HP Air SA2 startup 13f -> 2f when canceled from OD specials More consistent and allows cancel from midscreen OD Bushin Hojin Kick

Shuriken Bomb - damage scaling reduced from 20% Starter/Combo scaling to 10% Starter scaling only

236KK: fixed bug that would cause sound effect not to play 214LK throw invuln on frames 7-11 214MK throw invuln on frames 8-12 214HK throw invuln on frames 9-13 214KK throw invuln on frames 7-11
