These Patch Notes are a continuation of Part 1

General Combat

• Ground forward dodges that do not successfully dodge an attack now have an additional 10 frames of recovery before the fighter can perform another action; recovery lag on successful dodges is unchanged

• Upon a successful hit, victim fighters will now hold their active pose for a longer duration. This will address issues where fighters transitioned into their hit react animations causing attacks to appear to hit from much farther than intended.
  
• Multiple attacks have received hitbox sizing passes, with more coming in a future patch.
  
• Automatic techs that occur near terrain corners will no longer send fighters off the side of the map
  
• Fixed an issue where certain input settings would not properly charge certain attacks.
