    The following dodge selects are very usable against soft-feints and hard-feint GBs: (200ms GB vulnerability)

    Conq forward bash

    Glad forward dodge light + dodge bash (although might as well just use heavies)

    BP forward bash

    BP forward dodge heavy

    WL headbutt

    WL dodge heavy

    Zerk dodge lights forward + side

    Valk forward dodge light

    Jorm dodge heavy (only punishes hard feints (with the heavy or with soft-feint GB), but not caught by soft-feints)

    WL dodge heavy

    Nobushi's viper retreat

    Kensei forward dodge heavy

    Kensei forward dodge light

    Tiandi dodge lights

    Zhanu forward dodge light

    The next lot are easily usable against hard feint GB, but borderline against soft-feint GBs:

    Cent forward dodge heavy

    Shaman side dodge heavies

    Zhanhu forward dodge heavy

    Finally these never work vs soft-feint GB, but do work with tight timing against hard-feint GB. They are a bit more forgiving than regular heavy parries beating GB, because you don't have any guard switch first, and they seem to be affected by distance, which makes the opponent GB take longer to hit (maybe?). Overall, still not worth bothering with:

    PK forward dodge heavy (earlier start than listed?)

    Warden forward dodge heavy

    PK side dodge heavy

    Warden back dodge SB

    Conq side dodge bash

    LB side dodge shove

    Glad side dodge lights

    Valk side dodge lights

    Shaman forward dodge heavy

    Kensei side dodge heavies

    There were also a few that very occasionally worked against hard feint GB, but probably had to be first frame parries, and felt about the same as regular heavy parries:

    Nobu side dodge heavies

    Ara forward dodge heavies

    Hito dodge heavy

    Nuxia dodge lights

    The input does NOT work on Raider or Orochi, both of which will either do a zone or an empty dash.

    All dodge attacks not listed here do not work due to high GB vulnerability either on the attack or the later startup into the dodge.
