Hitbox inconsistency with point blank projectiles

Grave B can whiff when the opponent is very close to the opponent (e.g. walking towards Grave point blank)

^ works on the entire cornered cast except for Grave and Midori. Works mid screen for Rook and Dragon Midori.

Since I have no access to FS hitboxes, I can only guess that it’s caused by the fact that projectiles don’t use the “long hitbox on the first few active frames” trick which exists in SF3/SF4/SF5 to make them more consistent, but I may be wrong:

Confirmed. I noticed while testing against Rook that it whiffs most of the time but inexplicably hits every 5–20 attempts.

GIF situation with Dragon has been fixed with one of the many hitbox changes (tested now on v0.15780 Game Update: November 2018 — Fantasy Strike)

probably not fixed completely though since Grave's Lightning Cloud can still go through Jaina in the corner exists
