Overview
Dash is an extra ability that aims for great mobility while also having it's own variants. By pressing Q, you can activate the ability, which will propel your avatar forward normally, though depending on if you are using any other keys while dashing, it will replace the forward dash with anything else. When your avatar reaches any subject (Player, Weakest Dummy, Leaderboard #1-3 Avatars), your avatar will deliver a swift punch (in case of Symbol of Fear, will cross his arms into the "X" letter before spreading them in the exact same directions) to the opponent's left, temporarily stunning them, and while so, leaving them wide open for your M1's. Also, whenever you are using any of the Dash Variations, you can use your Shift Lock, so that way dashing into the desired direction will be much easier while also giving you the ability to redirect yourself.
Dash Variations
- Front Dash - Your avatar lunges 5 ground tiles forward before delivering a swift jab to the one's left. Achieved by simply using Q without anything else or while holding W. By using Shift Lock, you can achieve "Surprise Dash" by dashing into one's back, usually being helpful against Block.
- Side Dash - Your avatar will dodge any incoming attack to either left or right, depending on what key was pressed in order to achieve Side Dash. Achieved by using the key combination of Q + A or D, depending on where you want to dodge, left or right, usually helpful against Unblockable attacks that require dodging.
- Back Dash - Your avatar flips themselves backwards twice, travelling a considerable distance while retreating. Achievable by using keys combination of Q + S and only it. Is useful for retreating and confusing your opponent.
- Side Dash Downslam - This is a technique move that is made of 3 M1's away from the opponent + Side Dash to the opponent while having your avatar jump + M1. This technique can be used to catch opponents by surprise with a Downslam that is unblockable.
- Retreat Combo - If you want to retreat as fast as possible, then use this combination of all dashes - "Side Dash + Back Dash + Side Dash + Front Dash + Side Dash + Aerial Downslam (M1 in air) + Side Dash," and then do the same whenever Back Dash cooldown ends.
- All techniques that are relying on M1's (ex. Loop Dash) are described here - Techniques.
