Ok this is very useful can be set up for mind games, but is Mad difficult to do (well starting out at least).

Ok here it is. We all know that glide tossing is when you have an object you go into shield, roll forward and toss at the same time. This will propel you forward a considerable distance (depending on who your using of course.)

We've Also learned thanks to Nikok that you can do this backward (it's a little more complicated though)

But what I'm about to explain is really hard (at least for me). This works well with trotting and Dash shielding.

ok first off you want to trot, shield, Roll back, then at the same time toss forward. This is like a wavedash effect. In Melee I would dash and wavedash back as a means to draw my opponent or leave him guessing. This is sort of like that. When you do this you'll slide back quite a bit if done right. This may need a lot of practice.

The second one (Dash Shielding) is just like the first one but much more harder to perform. Ok instead of a Trot you do a Full Dash, shield (Shield should come up quickly), Roll back, toss forward. Doing this will feel awkward and will take time to perfect but it's very useful in battle.

I just tried this.

There is a easier way to do and explain this.

Just roll back and as soon as you do, Use the C stick and throw the turnip in front of you.

You can do other cool things with it too. One of the best tricks i found against fox and wolf, sometimes falco, is that if you glide toss forward and they shine you get hit. But if you glide toss and throw the turnip up, you still move forward and then you can punish the shine. Its nice to do. Though very situational.

Not so much a new discovery as much as it is a different approach. I tend to follow my glide throws with grabs(if im close enough) or dair.

Make sure your reverse glide toss is near perfect before using these in battle or else there's no point.

BTW I used glide tossing to mindgame yesterday and none of my friends caught on lmfao.

Glide toss a turnip DOWNWARDS, so you throw the turnip to the ground, then they will shield (Most likely) thinking your going to throw it at them (Who glide tosses downwards anyways) Grab and then follow up.

EDIT: I just noticed, the title of the thread. A new appication
