Flinching

Flinching refers to the state after an Archangel takes too much stability damage. If an Archangel's stability drops to zero, it will flinch. The Archangel will stop whatever it is doing and starts tumbling. The Archangel also gains invulnerability from the full duration of the flinch.

If the Archangel attempts a dodge cancel, it will consume more boost than normal.

Stagger
If an Archangel's stability drops below 50% (also known as the Stability Threshold), it will start staggering whenever it takes stability damage. Staggering interrupts the Archangel's current action.
