Smash 4 Guide: The Art of Perfect Pivot

Welcome to Perfect Pivoting, the next level of movement. This is a guide on how to perform the technique as well as how it works, and what some character can do with it.

Yes, this is very similar to wavedash, but harder to perform, specially online.

Nice :)
Well made, though not sure why it was given the name "perfect" pivot when I've always known this tech as simply just "pivot" since SSB64. There were a few other quality issues but overall informative and well done.
I like the guide a lot, very useful.
I don't like the fact that you gave the tech an alternate name based on your own, despite posting about it six days after MSC :P
But yeah, awesome work, and I'm sure I'll be grateful to you for demonstrating these great uses of it when I finally develop the input speed to use it consistently :P
Fantastic guide...really exciting stuff... Now let's hope sakurai doesnt go back on his word and patch it out
Excellent guide for explaining how to use the technique and it's uses.
The fact that you showed frame by frame what to do was exceptional. As an aspiring Captain Falcon main, I immensely appreciate the time and effort you put into this. Cheers to upping the complexity of SM4SH to get the respect it so rightfully deserves
Very nice guide, like that you put in the extra effort to showcase uses of it and showing off what moves retain the slide for every character. Keep up the great guides.
