Kinda Sorta OK at Smash
EDIT: This is not a typical run cancel.
I'm sure this has been discovered before, but I didn't know about it. If someone knows what this technique is, please tell me the name in a comment.
Basically this functions almost like a pivot for any forward dash, except I think it's a couple of frames slower and is much easier to perform. Dash forward, let the stick return to neutral, input another dash forward, input down, and then input whatever move you want. Dtilt is the easiest, but you can do any tilt or smash out of this, and it's faster than a wavedash, with more control on the distance of the dash. There is a minimum distance, as it seems to have something to do with the dash animation (for instance I tried this with Mewtwo and you have to stay in dash for much longer).
I'm trying to see if you can use this same trick to perform a psuedo pivot backwards. I'm not sure if you can, cause so far I have been unable to do so. Still, this is very easy to do and honestly is almost as good as a real pivot, and definitely superior to using wavedashes in most cases.
In any case, Marth would get a lot of mileage out of this, as this gives you more options while in dash.
