While it does use the character’s roll, it should be noted that it cannot be morphed into a roll cancel. Also, if you are in the middle of a block string you can’t just mash on forward and roll even though you’re already blocking. The motion from back to forward still has to be done to register the GCR.
If there are any details I might have missed, please reply here!!
You rule man, thanks for these.

Interesting stuff, all the nuances of the roll mechanic almost makes me wish I played a different groove but I’m too much a sucker for parry.
