Addicted to Rolling...

[Evil_MARIO]

hey I have trouble with wavedashing out of L-cancels. I always roll away or inback of them and hit them. Is this a bad habit? Have anytips for helping me learn to not hit the control stick to roll would be great.

sounds to me like ur timing them to close together. give urself a split second longer inbetween the cancel and the WD

im not accidentally doin it... i roll to get away and its like its a normal reaction lol . Beacause I L-cancel and press over to move away and I roll.

any suggestions on moves or technics that i can supstitute for rolling?

U should roll less though cause ur opponent can mindgame u into an opening. Try to just walk away sometimes it helps. I would say wave dashing to helps as well., but thats what everyone would say. Roll when u feel the opportunity is right to move away. So use it wisely.

Uh. . .you just have to practice?

If you have a bad habit problem where you're doing the same thing over and over again after a certain action (as you said, rolling after a shffl'd aerial), you need to break it. There's no cure to a bad habit except forcing yourself to perform that particular action differently. Although having people constantly punish you for your bad habits also works rather well.

You can do anything you want after a shffl'd aerial. Literally anything. If it's evasive stuff you want to do, you can wavedash back/forwards, dashdance away, spot-dodge, short hop/full jump forwards/backwards.

Offensively, you can jab 1-2 times, d-smash, u-tilt, shffl another aerial. . .the list goes on. Just think about what you're doing before you do it. Devolving into predictable patterns will hurt you.
