Has anyone else exeperienced this? Is this a bug?

I was in AQ fighting YJ with my GR and he just dashed backwards by himself mid-combo! It happened at least 5 times.... it was like GR was possessed. It was kind of funny, but not really Kabam.

    You should already know this but the game screen is divided into two halves: the defensive side on the left and the offensive or attacking side on the right.

    For the defensive side, people are well aware that they can swipe back to dash back as well as tap and hold to block. On the attack side, people are well aware that they can swipe forward to do a medium attack or tap to do punches.

    What some people don't know is that on the attack side, you can ALSO swipe back to dash back. In a similar fashion, you can swipe forward on the defensive side to do a medium attack. You can actually play the game one-handed this way.

    Did you inadvertently swipe back while doing your combo?

    I've been playing for a year now and quite aware of the functions, most certain that I don't swipe left during a combo with either thumb. I also thought it was myself inadvertly swiping back, but it happened at least 5 times during the same fight. No way I would have manually done it that many times.

    Thanks for confirming guys. I thought my GR was getting possessed.

    @Kabam Miike have you heard of this before? Is this new or old bug?

    Happens to me occasionally. Sometimes the opposite actually, I swipe back and my champ dashes forward throwing haymakers.

    Yup, there was the random forward dash and now there's the random backward dash. Oh, and today i encountered the power drain bug. Thanks for the hotfix kabam.

    You can't play one handed. True swipes work on both sides but heavy and block are not.
