Sidestep

[Marquetta]

[Sidestepping] is most commonly used in video games as another way of saying dodging. To sidestep you would simply just have to dodge any [visuals] with a negative impact. ( [Visuals] in this sentence would be stuff like magic, fire, traps, hammers and swords, etc. ) When [sidestepping] the only thing you do is walking or running. Roll, jump, duck, etc, yeah... none of them counts as sidesteps.
Side note: Sidestepping is a very advanced move depending on the game you are playing, it can require a lot of skills to pull it off in some games.
