Helpless

Helpless refers to the state of which no movement can be made except for horizontal input. It often results from using a recovery move, whether it is horizontal, vertical, or diagonal. A character in helpless state cannot move very far, use any moves, recover, or attack, so it leaves a player vulnerable for attacking.
