whenever you are performing a back flip or front roll with shinobi, the enemies attacks still easily track you and hit you
this is especially irritating when they hit you with a damn slow top heavy which can kill you instantly
You mainly notice this when being ganked, as you back flip away, from one enemy, a second enemy to your side just throws a top heavy and it will always hit you, whether you can block it or not
the moves do have uninterruptable stance, but that really isn't good enough when you can die in two hits (without feats and gear stats)
Possible idea, how about adding hidden stance (like nobushi's) to the back flips and rolls (just to make it clear, NOT THE DOUBLE DODGE). It makes sense, his moves are evasive moves, you shouldn't be able to hit them so easily with a vertical attack
maybe this has been said before, but whatever
Welcome to the world of Shinobi .. especially in 4v4 versus a Highlander that can one shot you.
Yes, you'll "whiff" intentionnaly an attack thinking hey, I'll backflip and ranged guardbreak him when he whiff back an attack trying to catch me off guard and then BAAAM. He zooms to you hitting you for 32 damage and then proceeds to stagger you to oblivion since it was a heavy attack. What comes next ?? An unblockable (your staggered with the worst reflex guard in the game that wont come up fast enough almost 100% of the time) 2nd top heavy that will hit you, with gear and 2nd feat unlocked, for 62 damage.
A garanteed 2nd hit that makes it a total of 94 damage. Shinobi has 90 health.
That's right, that one heavy that hits you while you were backflipped resulted in a 100% garanteed 2 hit kill on you.

While I'm here, I'll let you on a little "secret" that'll make you cheat your way to more kicks. While you are double dodging, just press and hold the heavy attack button. You'll skip the recovery animation and you'll be able to "quad dodge". After 2 dodge, most opponent dodges and your "3rd and 4th dodge kick" will catch them by surprise since ... you can't realy expect what the game shouldn't allow you to do.
oh yeh I know about the quad dodge, learnt it from a friend who I think actually discovered it (he used it at a tournament), you can actually infinitely double dodge till your stamina runs out, I just do it for fun lol
Yeh it's annoying how everyone's tracking on shinobi's backflip is perfect, what do you think about adding a hidden stance property to it?

I already stated all the Shinobi buffs I wanted to happen there and on other places too. Feel free to add comments to those.
