Stop story bosses' rush at the net

Oliver: the strawberry seller as act I's first boss is way too hard,
"or it should not cross the net". His charge is the one boss move
exempt from the court band: it runs to a strike line in front of you,
and contact is death. In the story every boss's rush now stops a metre
short of the net and withdraws as before, so the threat is kept and the
reach is not. The Physio in act IV is held the same way. Only the
Champion's MATCH POINT rush in act V stays, because it is the finale.
New test. v385, staging only.
