HaHa Step is a movement technique exclusive of Lei's Back-Turned(BT) stance, a rare movement option and alternative for Backdash Cancel(KBD), with a more simple execution and application than the tradicional KBD. Covering more ground movement backwards than his normal backdash with KBD and a more easier command to do, Lei can escape many pressure situations in neutral with proper Haha Step, although his recovering from the BT stance is more slower than tradicional backdash, turning punishment of whiffs more situational and limited.


How to do

The basic Haha step isn't much issue, what you need to do is first enter the back-turn stance (b+3+4), then after/during the transition you cancel the stance into crouch back(FC D/B), then repeat the process (B+3+4,n,D/B) until you're safe enough to breath.

The command screen should be reading as:

Cancel into FC D/B

While this is the most easy and useful way, Lei is free to cancel his Back-Turn in standing backdash and vice versa, allowing for a more difficult version too, in which you do b+3+4,n,b[L 1]. Sometimes called Silent Step, a more fast and instantaneous cancel but with less ground movement than the standard Haha Step.

The command screen should be reading as:

Usage

Doing something like 3/4 Haha Steps you can probably reach the corner or the other side of the screen, it covers a lot of ground movement but in walled stages you should have more precaution to not corner yourself for the opponent so easily. It's a movement option for when you want to escape the opponent "danger zone"(e.g. his launcher range or mixup) in neutral[L 2], not recommended when you are already in okizeme situation or in risk of being launched( for example, your back-turn being hit by the opponent). The D/B cancel input allows for you to evade highs during your movement, forcing the opponent to try mids or moves with long reach but slower startup, able to conditioning.

Name

The name reason is because in older games, when you did the Haha step, Lei sounds like he says "Ha, Ha, Ha"[L 3], looking like he's laughing during the transitions and your effort to reach him.
