I recognize, not "ai recognize". Typo.

Tuning the A+B dash to feel as close as possible to the dash button is important for my enjoyment of the game, but ai recognize how challenging it can be on a technical level. I hope some improvements are being worked on. (A+B dash also has some issues with low IADs)

Im a 6 button gamer, so im not using the dash button in 2xko. I think there are serious advantages to using the dash button currently though, as the game is not buffering two-button dash attempts in reversal situations or when done repeatedly properly, so you get lots of accidental medium normals.

One of the reasons they're having trouble concocting a Left Wing Terrorism epidemic is basically nobody in this country has ever met a left wing person. You might as well say we're being invaded by the smurfs

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

Not true.

Braum back assist is shield, and forward assist moves forward.

Ahri back assist is projectiles up close, and forward assist moves forward.

Crank back assist goes up, and his forward assist goes forward.

There is just no consistency across the characters here.
