How does "Crouch Dodge" work?

[guigameplayer]

During the loading screen, one of the texts there mention a Crouch Dodge that can be used to dodge projectiles and grabs.

I can make it work with projectiles sometimes, but i never managed to avoid a grab with it
I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong or what this crouch dodge even looks like when it is done right, i haven't found videos on it.

Can someone enlighten me on how thid mechanic is supposed to work?

It seems to work only on grabs at the moment or anything that's high enough to be ducked (Thrown weapons), if you duck way too early though sometimes the enemy adjusts and you'll see there hands go lower to grab you from a duck anyway.

Apparently the demo is an older build of the game so the crouch to dodge prompt isn't in yet. Please don't quote me on that I might be wrong :)

U can also crouch dodge the horizontal swing of the weapon (shovel)
As for dodging the grabs, there's two type of from what i see. The one that lunging from afar (stopping em with a knife poke is enough, cuz apparently it hurts more than a gun shot) and other is closing a distance first before initiating a grab (I have more success dodging this by crouch strafing. Even if they attempt to punch instead, u have enough time to react for parry)
