+Heavy Melee's are available both on the ground and in the air. There are three phases to a Heavy Melee: __windup__, __lunge__ and __recovery__.((
+Another way to think about is like a standard move in a standard fighting game. A standard button has startup, active, and recovery frames
+))
 ===== Windup =====
 Upon initiating a Heavy Melee, you enter the first phase: __windup__. During windup, you pull back and "windup" your punch. If you were on the ground upon initiation, you are instantly stopped while you windup.
 During this phase, you are fully vulnerable and do not yet have a hitbox. While in windup, yellow and orange particle effects will be emitted from your fist and a noticeable sound effect will be played for all players. If you are in the air, you will continue in your current velocity, and be locked out of moving using the standard movement keys.
 The windup phase takes ''0.36'' seconds.
 ===== Lunge =====
-After the windup phase is the __lunge__ phase. During the lunge phase, you start lunging forwards and are able to damage other players. The peak speed at which you lunge is ''746.67'' u/s on the ground and ''793.6'' u/s in the air. With the <weapon> Weapon item //Melee Charge//, the peak speed is ''1045 u/s'' on the ground and ''1116.27 u/s'' while in the air.
+After the windup phase is the __lunge__ phase. During the lunge phase, you start lunging forwards and are able to damage other players. The peak speed at which you lunge is ''750'' u/s on the ground and ''797'' u/s in the air. With the <weapon> Weapon item <item_melee_charge> //Melee Charge//, the peak speed is ''1125'' u/s on the ground and ''1195'' u/s while stationary in the air. With the upgrade, <item_crushing_fists> //Crushing Fists//, the peak speed is ''1275'' u/s on the ground and ''1355'' u/s while stationary in the air.
 During this phase, you have a hitbox attached to you. While you are moving, a small spherical hitbox is attached to your player which can damage opponents. Since you have a melee hitbox applied on your character, you are susceptible to being parried. If any enemy player is hit (including neutral creeps), the rest of the lunge phase is cancelled, the final hitbox will not appear and you immediately enter the recovery phase.

 While in lunge phase, you have unrestricted turning. This allows you to fake out opponents or take very sharp turns.
-At the very end is a "final hit". This hitbox is much larger and is able to be aimed in any direction. This final hitbox consists of two checks:
+At the end of the lunge phase is a "final hit". This hitbox is much larger and is able to be aimed in any direction. This final hitbox consists of two checks:
-  * The game checks in a 192 unit sphere around you to check for enemy players.
-  * The game spawns a circular cone (200 units in length and 100 units in final radius) in front of you to check for enemy players.
+  * The game checks in a ''192'' unit sphere around you to check for enemy players (includes Neutral creeps and minions).
-  * If an enemies hurtbox are in both, a player can be hit and damaged.
+  * The game checks in a conical frustum (which is ''200'' units in length and ''100'' units in final radius) in front of your current position to check for enemy players. (includes Neutral creeps and minions)
+  * If an enemies hurtbox is in both, they are hit and damaged.
 While in the air, you are able to change your direction by ~5° upwards or downwards.
-The damage that a Heavy Melee deals depends on the character; the normal damage amount is 116. <ivy_mm> Ivy and <yamato_mm> Yamato deal 99 and 128 melee damage respectively. This damage can be increased by buying items that have the //+Melee Damage// stat or by buying items that increase <weapon> Weapon Damage((Heavy Melee damage scales with <weapon> Weapon Damage)

+))
 The lunge phase takes a maximum of ''0.6'' seconds.
 ===== Recovery =====
-After the lunge phase is the __recovery__ phase. In this phase, you no longer have any active hitboxes and stand still. All previous momentum is cancelled and you stop at a standstill, both on the ground and in the air. If you are in the air, all momentum, both on the x and y axis is cancelled.

 The recovery phase takes ''0.2833'' seconds
 ==== Items that increase Heavy Melee Distance ====
-Certain items have the //+Heavy Melee Distance// statistic, which changes the distance that your Heavy Melee goes. A base grounded Heavy Melee travels ''238.5'' units forward; you can extend the distance by obtaining the <weapon> Weapon item //Melee Charge//, which extends the lunge by ''95.59'' units, for a total of ''334.09'' units.
+Certain items have the //+Heavy Melee Distance// statistic, which changes the distance that your Heavy Melee goes. You can increase this by either buying the <weapon> Weapon item <item_melee_charge> //Melee Charge//, or by buying the upgrade <item_crushing_fists> //Crushing Fists.//
