Whyy can't I win?!Let's try moving aroundOh—Let's start by trying out the staple feature of the SoulCalibur series: the 8-Way RunOooh, I lost againWell, that's because...You just mash buttons at random without putting any thought into it, Dra-chan.* Random Mashing DepictionThrowing in some random moves from time to time can still work well thoughUmm—what do I need to learn in order to win, then?Dra-chan, try moving aroundOh—!Ooh——!I feel like I'm going in circles around you, sis...That's right8-Way Run is similar to free run, but what makes it distinct is that your movement is not independent, it's centered around your opponent instead* You can fall back* You can also try to corner your opponentCenterBut is there any point moving around?
...It just makes my head spin...BlehThat's fine if you play against novices, but you can't really hope to win against intermediate players and above reliably just by pressing buttons at randomfrighteningOf course there's a pointExciting!
