After watching Wizzrobe's video of getting the perfect wavedash I decided to start playing around with it in actual matches to see if I could find any use towards using it.
After testing for a few hours in actual matches (online and offline) I find Wavedashing to be niche in this game, but it does have it's own effectiveness, mainly in the form of retreating wave dash. While a buffer'd reverse attack out of dash can give similar results, there are some cases where a retreating wave dash will yield a more react-able result of punish. Example: when you are in running animation and turning around would yield a slower outcome than just wave dashing back from dash.
Here are a few clips I use wavedash where I found uses and in some cases a retreating tilt could've sufficed, there are also a few where only a wavedash could yield the result.

It's not meta defining but it does have it's use and I have gotten a few punishes/tech reads from it in my matches.
