Momentum

Movement

When sprinting, no maximum speed. There is a minimum speed that sprinting will get the player up to. But if they sprint when landing at a higher speed than the sprinting speed, they will just maintain that speed, though they won't increase it.
Over time, not a short time, the player's speed will decay until they've reached the sprinting speed.

Combat

  • Most moves maintain or increase momentum.
  • When landing an attack at high speed, the characters freeze on impact for a second, and then the hit player's momentum is cancelled and they are carried along with the attacker's momentum. This allows the attacker to do a combo without having to worry about the other player's previous momentum.
