Our TYM member greeneless wanted to know while he got hit with Scorpion's high spear while ducking: https://testyourmight.com/members/greeneless.6311/#profile-post-301725

I've noticed this too on the rare occasion but never really looked into it, but here it is... If you're duck-blocking and ONLY release block, you'll "stand" for 1 frame (maybe 2?), even if you never let go of down.


I tested with other projectiles too and this mechanic(?) appears universal.

Also, for some reason, you can duck-flawless block a high projectile, even though duck-blocking most high projectiles just makes them whiff normally.
And if you release block at the wrong time, a high projectile will hit you while you are ducking.

We found it's not exactly stand frames, but if the move normal gets blocked while crouching (doesnt fully go over you) then you can't let go of block. You remain in that duck-blocking hitbox so you get hit

Oh cool. I wasn't aware of that thread! I'll take a look. Thanks.

Edit: Wow. I just read that thread. I do NOT like that one bit lol. Gonna close this thread so the discussion can move back here.
