Cool arrow trick, nothing big

As you all may be aware, a straight shot at an opponent who is directly in front of you isn't always the best choice. The better option would be to do a curvy arrow to:
1. Freak them out into thinking you are missing, but hit them
2. Avoid it being reflected back in your face.
3. Always keep them guessing if you will hit them or not.

This can be somewhat hard to do with a quick up down or down up, not really though with practice.

But, I noticed that what you can do is instead of quickly flicking up down/down up, you can rotate your controller for the entire arrow cycle which will cause the arrow to change directions many more times than the way previously mentioned and stay in the same direction. And the good thing is, its easy. Bad news is that it is may be hard to replicate the same shot. Also, depending on how fast you rotate depends on how wide the curves will be.

So there is a time to be straight forward, extremely precise, and all out crazy to freak your opponent out,
Just a little thing I thought that might be good to mention. Have fun! :p
