Dash Cancelling

Dash Cancelling is a technique in Tawhaw 13.5 that uses one meter. While firing a projectile, blocking, or in the middle of a melee attack, one can press the D button to cancel lag and dash behind the opponent to continue his or her assault. Additionally, one can hold left or right to adjust the direction that they go in. The default will always be in the direction the character using this technique is facing.



Note that the melee attack has to make contact for Dash Cancelling to be applied. If the attack whiffs, it cannot be cancelled; however, if the attack hits or even if it is blocked, one can dash cancel to continue a blockstring.

With correct timing, by attacking and dash cancelling forwards and crossing-over/backwards, one can avoid Oyashiro Attacks/Bombs, respectively.
