Assault Rush

We’ve implemented a new system: Assault Rush.

Consumes one segment of the A-Gauge
Can be canceled from any attack
Can also be chained into any attack

Using this system, you can connect combos that would normally be impossible.
As long as the A-Gauge remains, you can use it repeatedly, allowing you to quickly push your opponent into the corner.

By activating it at the end of a throw animation, you can increase the damage.
It cannot be activated while the opponent is being held during a throw.

You can also link from a light attack into a heavy one.
However, starting from a light attack applies significant scaling, so don’t expect much damage.

This is a new strategic option for using the A-Gauge. Since the timing of activation affects the mind game, it expands the strategic depth.
That said, the input timing is quite strict due to the short window, and currently the strong gravity limits juggling potential.
This aspect likely needs more balancing.

Aside: Tax Office

I received a call from the tax office this week. I thought I was finally being audited,
but they said my March tax return was exactly the same as last year’s, and asked me to resubmit.
Apparently, I made a mistake when using the accounting software during filing.

Upon recalculating, I found my base income tax had significantly increased,
and since the deadline had passed, my deduction amount dropped substantially, doubling the amount owed.

The amount was so large that I hit the charge limit for electronic money,
causing a payment error that took time to resolve.
Why must the payer suffer this much?

I paid my taxes again — in tears.
