The Importance of FD Jump
BDC jump often allows Slayer to avoid attacks, but attacks can still catch the beginning of Slayer's jump. Slayer can BDC during any string with a gap, but these strings often use air unblockable moves that must be blocked in the air with FD. Basically, you will want to include FD with every BDC jump input.
Input your BDC jump as 447S+H
- Doing crouch block then BDC can give a 214 input
- Using P or K would then cancel your jump into Dandy Step
- Using S+H will bypass this problem
Jump Hurtbox Comparison
Note that back jump is both wider and taller than neutral or forward jump. FD jump is the smallest and has the same hurtbox in any direction.
