If you can see in this video here, Smash Bros Italia performs what they call the Turnaround Cancel.
I think a better name would be a Pivot Cancel, or perhaps Turndashing. Now I believe this has quite the potential for differing movement options. What do you guys think of this technique?
Edit: I think I understand its uses a little bit more.
It can be used to slide and attack in whatever direction you choose! Look at the item section in 1:05, Mario is dashing to the right quickly pivots and still throws the item to the right while sliding to the right! We can take that into Smashes and Tilts as well, so if Mario is dashing to the right he will pivot and do a right forward smash with the C-Stick. And if stutter step returns Mario will get even more reach with his forward smash! So this can be applies to items, Smashes, and tilts. This could evolve the metagame for Smash 4! Special thanks to @Skull_Kid and his community for bringing this video to attention. You guys really do rock!
