i would rater demand a Death line chase cooldown reduce or simply a dash distance boost when used backward and forward,
I kinda like to stay in awakening than die stupidly because the absorbed from shield chase was instantly destroyed.
Understand that its a bit ambiguous for some 1v1 move. But in Node war and siege his change on DLC backwards help alot.
I personally like DLC how it is.
IMO, the biggest issue is if you hold S or tap W/A/S/D during/after a backwards DLC, it'll take you out of Qblock.
No issues going forward, only happens backwards. If you only do Shift+S, it'll work normal and put you back into Qblock.
Like Muhaha said, the only real issue I have is the backwards taking you out of Q-Block.
Granted I've been away from the game for 2 years and just returned... so maybe I know nothing O.O
