Tiandi Guard Switch Bug & How to Avoid It

Описание: Tiandi's attacks that come from a different direction than his current guard stance, i.e. a Zone or Dodge Heavy, cause a guard switch to occur. This guard switch isn't consistent with other static guard heroes, and is most likely a bug.

For example, Left Guard → Forward Dash Heavy → Dragon Kick into wall → Left Heavy. The Forward Dash Heavy causes a guard switch to top stance. Trying to use a Left Heavy will cause a 2nd guard switch to occur from top stance back to left stance, even though you kept your guard in left stance the whole time. Your Left Heavy would get blocked in this scenario.

The workaround is to switch your guard to the direction of the Zone or Dodge Heavy while you're still in recovery. For example, Left Guard → Forward Dash Heavy → Dragon Kick into wall → Switch guard to top during Dragon Kick's recovery → Top Heavy. This will not cause a 2nd guard switch to occur, and your Top Heavy will land.
