Block / sidestep dashing bug

There are quite a few current bugs that are getting very frustrating but right now this is topping the list and damn near game breaking. I’m on iOS so not sure if it’s isolated but having a random dash in when attempting to block or sidestep is getting me killed in AM on otherwise easy fights.
I use the left thumb to input sidestepping and dashing. Trying to block and AI special and instead dashing in is getting ridiculous.
I haven’t seen any real update on addressing the large number of current bugs but please make this a priority.

Don’t expect any comment. I posted a bug question several days ago and still no response.
I'll try this out. Usually in AM or experts i'm trying to focus so usually in a level position. I never had much issue until the last update.
And I find my melee and dash attacks often missed half way.
Me too Its really annoying i keep losing
I have many times my bot not dashing in when i want to, just stand there shooting range, cause it can't differentiate a swipe or tap, when my swipe is too short.
That's not really the problem. The problem is a tap is causing a dash or even a hold to block is causing a dash forward as if you swiped. I've also had the right side taps for melee causing a dash back or additional medium attack.
There are definitely significant input issues since the update.
No I don't think it's caused by update.
Do you know u can actually dash forward with swipe right on left side of screen?
I tested this long time ago & thought I can play with one hand, but too intense for this game play.
Whoa, wait, are you serious? How did I not know that?
Yes, i just tested again, it works. U can backstep on right side of screen as well.
Sorry for not posting in here yet! I wanted to let you know that we have reported this to the team, and appreciate all of the input you guys have provided so far.
If you come across anything else that you think might help (does it happen in certain modes or arenas more? How about certain Bots?) please let us know!
Somtimes I tried both backstep and sidestep but the AI blocked instead, I don't know if my ipad is tilted, I swiped in the wrong direction or if it's just a bug
It happens in all fight modes (Excluding AMs because I havent tested it yet) and it also happens when im trying to activate my sp. I tap it multiple times and for some bizzare reason, nothing happens. I want to know if thats just me being bad at tapping and aiming or its the game. Thanks
Yep thats what i meant
Of course as someone here said already, the left of the screen controls all bot movements: left, right, up, down, Centre: evade, dash, sidestep, and Block.
The right side can also achieve all those things except Block, because tapping on the right side is a Light attack
@Gunz0 ‘s comment frankly makes no sense. They say they do one thing but the AI does another... huh? So what?
@MegaKuppCake ‘s comment meanwhilesounds like they’re just too slow. That’s not a bug, it just means you got beat
The number of these types of complaints is really surreal. If you lose, it isn’t Kabam’s fault. Just try again
I've been playing since day one and this only started with the update this month. Happened on both an iPhone 7 and X so it would not appear to be related to hardware. I also have dry hands...
Obviously the game should be interpretng my inputs relative to the phone and not action on screen.
Maybe just maybe my sidestep wasn't 100% down towards the bottom of my screen, but it sure wasn't anywhere close to being on the diagonal.
Please don't clutter this thread with complaints about slow response to specials or scroll bugs. You can enter a new issue for that.
