That's neutral blocking, however you shouldn't rely on it, as strings bypass it and need to be blocked by holding back.

Don't listen to that advice unless you want to die. Hold back always. Neutral block is a noob trap you will get hit.

not always, holding back locks you in place, you also have low guard released into a mid for fuzzy as well as rolling into neutral guard.

heat you have to guard manually against, same if you hit your back into the wall while standing.

Sometimes I get hit by a Rage Art even though I'm holding away for what seems to be forever. Really annoying.

the game is bugged... when falling, the opponent has a 100% chance of blocking some characters. in turn, some characters have a 100% chance of bypassing a block when I hold the block for half a second and they can still shoot in and attack me. Currently the game is pathetic and you can't play normally.

That is also in T7 It just easier in T8 cause the fall speed is reduced and the visuals are better translated differently to what is going on and when.

mid block - beats highs and mids, loses to lows and throws
crouch block - beats highs and lows and most throws, loses to mids

Yeah, sometimes I got confused that I somehow still got hit despite pressing back

ikr, most of the time it happen against wifi opponent, but sometimes on wired

but as i didnt press anything other than back once, it should block for me no matter the connection, right?
