I was asking about this spamlag move:

**

Paladin pushes you back with a firm strike from the staff, disrupting your attack.

(No idea what skill is it, so can't find a helpfile :))

***

I'ts a crazy effective command denial + lags everyone + mass feint. That's fine, I know how to counter it, yet I wonder: if it **pushes** you back - does footing edge helps? Should work, imo, because footing is designed to help against all kind of pushes, drives, etc. But I am not sure if it's coded, hence the question!

About the footing edge itself - it really helps a lot vs pulls/drives/etc, making those moves fail a lot, and forcing enemies to use something else against you (once they learns that it is not reliable at all and, most likely, won't work). Actually, it's a very good edge, especially if there are enemies with drive legacy, or those who knows how to use pull/drive effectively. If there are such heroes in range, footing edge is a must have for me.
