This video demonstrates how to use/take advantage of Knockback Cancel and the benefits in doing so. More information can be found on.

Knockback Cancel is a blocking technique that allows you to reduce or eliminate the knockback effect after blocking an attack. Using this technique gives you more time to do whatever you want after an Aragami's attack. Please take note that it is ideal to use this technique against one-hit attacks that leaves the Aragami open for counters. To use this technique you must: 1.) Block a one-hit attack. (Preferably "pillar/dome" attacks) 2.) Immediately release the guard button after taking the hit. Note that the timing here is very crucial and if not executed properly, it will result to either you getting hit or a reduced knockback effect instead of totally eliminating it.

The Knockback Cancel technique was efficiently demonstrated at these times: 0:19, 1:01, 2:10 & 2:26.
