Another Laser Question!

[Umby]

I thought I had seen this discussed before, but I don't see the thread for some reason, but does can Falco still LHDL? I'm having trouble trying to time it right, so I personally can't tell. If it is possible is it still a good tactic to get up from the ledge?

Yes he can still let go of the ledge, DJ, fire 2 lasers and land on the stage. The reason this isn't commonly practiced is because there is normally somebody standing right next to edge trying to knock you back off. But if they start expecting the ledge release , DJ, phantasm you can throw this in to surprise them.
He can also ledge hop double laser 2 lasers at about ground level and regrab the edge, but this requires UpB which means it is completely out of the question.

For this would let go by pressing back or down (falls faster)?

With perfect timing, after jumping off the ledge falco shoots two lasers, and a third silent one when landing. So I guess you can LHTL.

whichever you are more comfortable with, I like down since i can just roll the analog stick towards the stage after I let go for the forward momentum so that i land on the stage.
I would guess that away would be the better option for what squipy mentioned so that timing it perfectly wouldn't be as hard, but maybe its the same.

Though that's only if you ledge drop to wall jump LHTL. There's a youtube vid of it lieing around somewhere
