What triggers the 12% or 20% bar on special 3s?

I'm sure there is a thread here for this but I can't find it because I don't know what it's really called. But when a SP3 is triggered against you there is a bar you can stop to deflect 12% or 20% damage, or when you trigger a SP3 you can add 12% or 20%. How and why does this only occasionally happen?

It's a 5-star and 6-star exclusive mechanic during special 3's

This is a feature of 5 & 6* champs can use while attacking a defender

Its a feature that 5&6* champs have

This happens for 5*s and above. The one you trigger happens when you are fight with a 5* or 6* and you get to draw a bonus to the damage the sp3 deals to the enemy. The opposite allows you to decrease the damage you receive by the sp3.

This feature is available whenever you use a 5* or 6* champ, and it doesn't depend on the rank or rarity of the champion you're fighting. If you're using a 5* champ and you're fighting a 4* champ you will still get these features.

Does anyone know what determines the width of the bars because they do change.

Class bonus/challenger rating/magic beans?

From personal experience I find the bar to widen as you miss the bonus damage/defense and tighten as you get the bonus damage/defense

From what ive noticed is the width is based on how strong the opponent is. I.e the bars are wider when fighting weaker opponents while the bars is narrower when fighting stronger opponents
