Guard button defends against cross-ups

2D fighters that don’t have guard buttons have a hidden mixup opportunity for players who perform jump attacks. DNF Duel has a dedicated guard button, which means you can perform a “neutral guard.” It’s not a literal term, but it describes a guard without having to retreat. If you do this, your character will automatically face someone who jumps over you instead of you walking towards them.
