Roll

Defensive maneuver accomplished by tapping the control stick left or right while holding the Shield button. Rolling fighters are intangible, with some vulnerable lag at the end after the motion ends. This is the grounded equivalent to directional air dodges, with more end lag than sidestepping but a better ability to dodge stuff. See defense.
