Koichi IAD in, slashbacks the flicked note, and dashes back out?

How the hell did he perform 2 dashes from a neutral state without landing? Does slashback reset jump properties?

[Oiboi]

Whoa... What the hell? Definitely interesting. Never heard of anything like this happening before, but it definitely looks like Slashback reset jump options... So weird. Guess this will require testing.

[Mechanica]

Yes, yes it does.

[Digital Watches]

Yeah, so does IBing in the air, actually.

[Honnou]

a slashback is an IB sorta, I think the character still flashes white, I could be wrong though cos this is just from memory

[Spirit Juice]

Don't listen to them; Koichi just hacks the game.

Either way, it is kind of the next "level" down from IBing in terms of window and blockstun, so it makes sense that it'd have similar properties.

Quick note, blocking in the air resets jump options, whether normal block, IB or SB. Don't remember for FD though. For the sake of curiosity more than real practical use, can anyone with access to his PS2 check ? It is more obvious for IB and SB since the blockstun is shortened, you often can use the jump option before landing. Indeed, you have to wait for your blockstun to be over in order to JC/AD again. Try normal blocking a hit high in the air, you'll see you'll be able to JC before landing. That happens less often than an IB but that could still save the day, good to know.

dj, not jc.

I had Dizzy do her S Fish I double jumped and normal blocked, and was able to jump and airdash afterwards. Same with FD, SB, and IB. Repeated again with superjumping. Then repeated the whole thing again with Dizzy doing j.S. Same results. Conclusion, blocking stuff in air restores your air-jumps and air-dashes.

well uhh if you look when slayer does that burst safe dust combo he airdashes twice in 1 jump

old "glitch"/feature of the homing jump, it's been in lots of combo vids.
