What's a Knockdown?

Knockdown (abbreviated as KD) occurs when using a certain attack that knocks down or a certain amount of attacks has been reached. The reason this is is to prevent infinite combos. It's best to not knockdown a monster/opponent since this leads to increased defense (in PvE) or a combo ending (in PvP). Even if you don't use knockdown attacks, the target may still knock down itself.

Conditions

The target will automatically knockdown when:

1)Three launch attacks hit. (Some exceptions)

2)The knockdown counter has been breached.

3)A knockdown attack has been used.

Type of Launch

LA (Launch Attack) - Launch opponent vertical into the air (High chance of continuing combo)

LA1 - Launch opponent horizon left either/or right

LA2 - Launch opponent horizon left either/or right into the air

LA3 - Launch opponent diagonal into the air or ground(High chance of continuing combo)

P (Pass) - An attack that will move you through your opponent (High chance of continuing combo)

Knockdown Counter

The number of single Z attacks needed to knock down a monster is 20. In PvP, the amount is around 14-15.

Let Z = 1. Have 20 as the maximum value before knockdown; 14-15 in PvP.
