During the night, Yoshimitsu snuck onto someone's server and stole bits and parts of this article from it, if not the whole thing!! You can help the Tekkenpedia by editing the page.

Basic Side Steps A side step in Tekken Tag is achieved by tapping up or down. Various characters have special attacks from the side step movement, check the character move lists for more details. Besides these side step attacks you also have other options during the side step animation including standard attacks or side step cancels. Take a look at the chart below for frame details.

Frame Window Face Forward Side Step From 1st to 11th No blocking From 8th to 43rd Attack input possible From 24th to 43rd New motion input possible At 43rd End of the side step animation

A side step can also be done while your character has his back turned towards the opponent. The chart below does not apply to Ling Xiaoyu or Lei Wulong as they have special back turned properties.

Auto Side Step Auto side step are done by holding up or down while blocking your opponent's attack. You will side step as soon as the block animation has ended. The following chart lists the moves after which you can auto side step while blocking and the direction in which you can side step. In some cases this technique will avoid being forced to block the rest of the attacks if you select the correct way to side step, but in some other instances you get hit during the auto side step. The directions marked with a * indicate which way to side step to not get hit if at all possible.
