Glossary

System Data Glossary
Defense	The amount of damage that characters take is determined by this value. The value shown in character frame data is the difference from base defense (256), which is represented as a decimal multiplier in other sections.
Guts	The amount of damage that characters take decreases as their life lowers. For more info, see here.
Prejump	Number of frames before a character becomes airborne from a jump, during which they are throw invincible but cannot block.
Weight	The character's weight class, which determines how fast they fall when being hit in the air.
Backdash	The total duration, invincibility window and airborne duration of a backdash in frames.
Forward Dash	The total duration of a step-based forward dash in frames, if uncanceled. Most characters have a run instead of a step.
R.I.S.C. Gain Modifier	The amount of R.I.S.C. Level characters gain when blocking is modified by this value. The value shown in character frame data is divided by 32 to give the multiplier used in other sections.
Jump Duration	The total duration of a jump in frames, if uncanceled.
Jump Height	The maximum height of a jump in in-game units of distance.
High Jump Duration	The total duration of a high jump in frames, if uncanceled.
High Jump Height	The maximum height of a high jump in in-game units of distance.
Earliest Forward Instant Air Dash	The minimum amount of frames after a jump leaves the ground that a forward air dash can be performed.
Earliest Backward Instant Air Dash	The minimum amount of frames after a jump leaves the ground that a backward air dash can be performed.
Forward Air Dash Duration	The total duration of a forward air dash in frames, if uncanceled. An /X number represents the earliest frame a forward air dash can be canceled into Faultless Defense.
Backward Air Dash Duration	The total duration of a backward air dash in frames, if uncanceled.
Forward Air Dash Attack Transition	The minimum amount of frames after a forward air dash that an attack can be performed.
Backward Air Dash Attack Transition	The minimum amount of frames after a backward air dash that an attack can be performed.
Movement Tension Gain	The amount of Tension gained per frame during a forward dash. This value is halved while walking, rounded up.
Jumping Tension Gain	The amount of Tension gained per frame of a forward jump, and for how many frames it is gained.
Air Dash Tension Gain	The amount of Tension gained per frame of a forward air dash, and for how many frames it is gained.
Walk Speed	The speed the character walks forward.
Backwalk Speed	The speed the character walks backward.
Initial Dash Speed	The starting speed of the character's forward dash.
Dash Acceleration	The amount of speed gained per frame of forward dashing, prior to friction calculations.
Friction	The amount of speed to lose one unit of acceleration, thus how quickly they lose acceleration. Note that a lower value means better overall acceleration.

Frame Data Glossary
guard	How this attack can be guarded. All non-throws can be air blocked unless otherwise stated.
startup	Number of frames for this move to reach its first active frame (includes the first active frame).
active	Number of active frames in this attack. Values in () are for gaps between hits of an attack.
recovery	Number of frames this move is in a recovery state before returning to neutral.
onBlock	After blocking this attack, how soon the attacker can act compared to the defender. A positive value means the attacker can move first. A negative value means the defender can move first. Assumes that the attack connects as soon as possible against a grounded opponent, and that the attacker does not cancel the attack into anything else.
onHit	After getting hit by this attack, how soon the attacker can act compared to the defender. A positive value means the attacker can move first. A negative value means the defender can move first. Assumes that the attack connects as soon as possible against a standing/crouching opponent, and that the attacker does not cancel the attack into anything else.
riscGain	How much the R.I.S.C. Level increases when this attack is blocked. This will change under various conditions, see also: R.I.S.C. Level.
riscLoss	How much the R.I.S.C. Level decreases when this attack hits. Note that 0 R.I.S.C. Loss hits still receive R.I.S.C. Level scaling, see also: R.I.S.C. Level.
level	Attack Level determines the amount of hitstun, blockstun, and hitstop this attack will inflict, and the amount of Tension gained on hit or block. Note that there are exceptions.
counter	The type of Counter Hit this attack triggers. There are three types: Small, Mid, and Large.
invuln	Attribute and hitbox invincibility for this move.
prorate	How much additional damage proration this attack has. There are two types of proration: Initial and Forced.
wallDamage	The base wall damage dealt on hit. Note that moves may deal more due to launching or wall bounce effects.
inputTension	The amount of Tension gained for inputting the move, only applies to specials. Additional Tension is then gained on hit or block, based on Attack Level.

※: Only applies to strikes. Projectiles follow ground blockstun values unless the defender lands while still in blockstun, resulting in 5 frames of landing recovery.
Note: Blocking a move in the air restores an air action. (i.e air jump or air dash)

Steady Aim Concentration

The amount of Concentration used when in Steady Aim varies by exact distance between Chaos and the opponent. Note that this changes even during Steady Aim, thus shooting an opponent further away will increase the concentration usage if remaining in the stance, while an opponent approaching Chaos will gradually decrease the usage. The below table demonstrates the ranges it changes at, and the amount of Concentration used each frame, relative to a median amount.

Distance	Ratio	Concentration
≤ 420Any closer than or equal to this spacing.	70%	4.9
> 420Up to 120 units further than this spacing.	80%	5.6
> 540Up to 120 units further than this spacing.	90%	6.3
> 660Up to 120 units further than this spacing.	100%	7
> 780Up to 60 units further than this spacing.	110%	7.7
> 840Up to 60 units further than this spacing.	120%	8.4
> 900Any further than this spacing.	130%	9.1

Frames to reload

Happy Chaos reloads 1 bullet per 9 frames with the the first bullet being reloaded on frame 21 and the move being cancellable on frame 23.

43Advantage:
More info has 30 frames of blockstun when unfocused and 43 frames of guard crush blockstun when focused. This move has the benefit of being special cancelable which allows Chaos to cancel Fire into other specials for different degrees of advantage. This chart helps add clarity to how much advantage you have. For 22PGuard:

Super Focus Table

normal > 214214P is generally plus due to gatlings but using this is not advised as the frame advantage is low and pushback from FD block allows for RPS. However there are situations where this must be done to regain concentration.
