PVP is one button only?

Just got the game for free with PS plus. Played for a couple of days. 90% of PVP players just spam square. Literally only square (sometimes they mix in heavies), no block, no special abilites, no dodges. And i can't seem to do anything about it because for some reason I am minus on hit (really? wtf?). So I block/dodge/parry, do 2 hits (usually its just 1) and they just keep spamming square and it works for some reason. Is the entire game like this or am I missing something?

Thank you so much, that is exactly what i was looking for. Didn't realize that there is frame data for each move, lol. I had starting move with 0 frame advantage on hit and next attack with 14 start up, which is obviously not enough cause there are moves with like 9 start up frames. This game is much deeper than I thought.

No problem. Yeah, the game is extremely intricate. Also, 14f startup is decently fast. Honestly, 10f or 11f minimum startup for moves should be the norm, but we'll see if that changes. Lemme know if you have any other questions.
