The trick to it is NOT to use it. People only get hit when they try to get out. You only need to roll lolz. Also, against faster characters, you would only want to slap once if you were going to attempt it. XiF can slap twice because Link is slowwwwwwwww, but most other characters would grab you and **** you.

actually u can grab peach jus after the slap. but its too risky and it only worked a few times vs xif with my peach.

it's great to see a tactic I developed years ago(vids dun lie lol) become so useful for peaches today. good **** XIF for mastering it! I <3 my son =]

Ijuka, everyone has been doing it for years. LOLZ.

I actually stopped using it a long time ago because everyone in Texas learned how to roll.

But the Florida kids are too busy pulling off ridiculous combos to realize it sucks. ;)

There are twp basic methods:
1. Instant float cancel, neutral air, fast fall, repeat (which can be an infiite? combo in a cormer;)
The second most commons is to instant float, neutral air, fast fall, slap, slap. The difference timing you put into the slap will give the enemy less chance of predicting you. If he gets hit, you can repeat it.
