Stagger times

Stagger times refer to the amount of time your character will be unable to attack due to a disabling move. An example of Stagger time is how long it would take a character to recover from being Power Guarded. Usually during stagger animations you are unable to control your character and are open for an attack. The slow getting up animation when you are at low health could also be considered a stagger time in that you have no control over your character and are open to an attack.
