This Stationary Head Movement Thing

Dude is just standing there like an idiot ducking. I'll post a video next time I run into it.

So this is the **** I've been getting wrecked by. I've been hitting them with all sorts and then their uppercut hook sneaks through and I'm on my bike lmao.

because ducking or leaning into a strike isn't super dangerous.

Multiple times I have thrown a knee/uppercut into a ducking opponent no real damage

If they're not moving yeah. Just clarifying because if you are moving and using head movement the damage scales well, it's just when you're standing still and using head movement that there's a problem.

This guy was doing this all fight. Standing on the outside and waiting for me to come in while stationary so he can land a counter. I even head kicked him the right side here and still nothing. It basically feels like you're fighting really good AI. Like it has some weird advantage over you. It's beatable and I won this fight but it's still ridiculous.

Stationary head movement can slip a lot of strikes. It is most vulnerable to uppercuts but even that is hard to time.

It's a straight up bug. Stationary head movement gives you armor against things it shouldn't.

And just because a guy does it to you a couple of times, it doesn't mean he is trying to abuse, it, btw. I do it by accident quite a lot. Sometimes I sustain the lean just a bit, to make sure I don't return to center too soon... and it's enough for the bug to happen.

A work around againt it is leg kicks, specially if followed up by a straight or an overhand.
