sometimes when I'm trying to QAC, I go shorter distances than usual, but I can only do it accidentally... i was wondering if anyone has also come across this?

Rollerking, quit being useless.

Short QACs can be done if you have the control stick between Diagonal-Down and Down.
Regular QACs are done through Diagonal-Down.
Long QACs, using both Quick Attacks are done by having the control stick to the side for the first Quick attack, then a Diagonal.

If that's too complex, I'll use angles:
Short QAC: Control stick is 22.5° from directly down.
Regular QAC: Control stick is 45° from directly down.
Long QAC: Control stick is 90° from directly down for the first Quick Attack, then 67.5°, 45°, or 22.5° from directly down.

I hope that helps.

LOL. I am not saying Muhznit is wrong, but Quick Attack is shorter if you don't hold in the direction you input it with.

i would think that its using DI while QA to making it longer. i wonder if its possible to DI to you while letting go in time to not go another way. this is interesting for testing.
