Focus Attack can be cancelled by tapping left or right twice, making the user move a short distance in the direction pressed. This is known as a '''Focus Attack Dash Cancel''' ({{ja|セービングキャンセル|Sēbingu Kyanseru}}, ''Saving Cancel''), often abbreviated as FADC. When the move is cancelled, it will be noted by a flashing star similar to those made by [[fast fall]]ing fighters. As such, a player can use the move's starting armor to plow through attacks or projectiles, then cancel it immediately for a follow-up; this is especially useful on laggy attacks. | Focus Attack can be cancelled by tapping left or right twice while holding down the button, making the user move a short distance in the direction pressed.

The dash cancel can be used before the strike occurs or when the attack hits (including if it is blocked). If the strike is released, but fails to connect, the dash cancel cannot be used. Dash cancelling the Focus Attack even works in mid-air, giving the user a unique air dashing ability that improves his aerial maneuverability and adds to his [[recovery]] options. | The dash cancel can be used before the strike occurs or when the attack hits (including if it is blocked).
