Free Step Dodge

Should of played a VF character KEK. +1 jab on block or low NH = actual true neutral starter (which is how it should be), but then you also can't always add + frames to jabs when each character has speed differences so that's a bit of a problem.

But if you are a i9 vs i11, the one with 9F should definitely be more disadvantageous on block since the character has the luxury of a move with 9 frame of startup.

Tekken is the same with jabs basically being universally 10i and +1. DoA is, as usual, backwards as fuck.

DoA acts more like they want you to use character specific things and force you into particular playstyles. Which goes against their supposed universal mechanics like the holds. They want people to play risky and get blown up possibly by using more hold. Like they believe that's all that identifies DoA.
