Imagine this: a player uses a specific wind dash to land on a cliff that gives them a perfect vantage point for attacking a boss. The devs patch it two weeks later. Who was right? Neither. It’s a living game, and the rules evolve.

Fun Fact: The History of Wind Cheating
In the early days of the game’s beta, players discovered that if you parried exactly as a wind gust hit you, your character would stutter-step forward. For a week, the speedrun community went wild. It became known as the “Zephyr Dash.” Then it was patched. Now it’s a legend.
