This is actually a really good utility skill, not just style. You can block or roll cancel the move after the backdash to basically have an invicible transition to a block, or if have an extra long invulnerable roll.

Additionally, the attack portion can be re-directed anywhere, even directly behind you. So if you face an enemy then quickly tap away on the analog, activate this skill and then tap toward on the analog, you'll actuallybackdash towards them, and then spin around and attack them. By doing this you can use it as an invincible advancing attack, not just a counter.

Additionally, this move has another block/roll cancel point during the dagger flurry, just before the kick comes out, so this move is incredibly safe an versatile in all kinds of ways.
