Does This Technique Have a Name?

[ewic]

Hey guys, I've known about this weird thing for like 10 months, and I just got around to filming myself doing it yesterday. It's this weird, pointless glitchy walk thing and perhaps one of you guys have seen it before? I just found it in the WiFi Waiting Room once and played around with it.

Basically, you gotta hold the analog stick juuuust to the right/left (whichever direction you're facing) and if you do it just right (you gotta be perfect), your character will walk like Samus does in the video below:

P.S. This works on any character, but I didn't want to make a fool of myself in a big general board, so I decided to post this finding in this board because this community is cozy and loving. :3 (I think...)

Not that I know of, Doesn't seem to really do much though.
I stand corrected, Pit can use that, He does his F throw and stutter steps the F smash, that's what it's called I think, stutter step. I could be very wrong though.

I don't think the thing I found was a stutter step. Stutter steps look different I think?

I wonder if someone knows for sure. =P

You were doing that today when we were brawling. Haha! It looks silly. Samus' legs are speeding up. I didn't notice it with Ganondorf, but you were moving forward slowly. It's usually not a good idea to call something after the name of the person who found it, though. Like, your Low Charge Shot (LCS) was found out by you, but you didn't call it "Ewic Charge Shot."

This is a technique?

Looks almost like a glitch in animation (or a start/stop doesn't know what to do because the input is so sensitive due to it being SLIGHTLY pushed enough to cause the small shake in your hand to make it go "walk>stop>walk>stop" really fast.

I'd just say it doesn't even need a name as its useless anyways? <_<

Haha I know, the description in the YouTube video is just for lulz. =D

You remembered my LCS! You get a gold star Dryn, for remembering that. Even though it's fairly useless in the heat of battle. XD

@ SuSa: I have feelings that it might be just like how you described it. Good job, it made sense lol. I'm not sure though, I mean I keep my thumb pretty still when I do it. XD

And yeah, the only use I can think of is to use as another way to taunt the other guy lol but still, it's hardly noticeable and it's fairly difficult to pull off on a limb. I mean, I can't imagine doing it in the heat of battle for mindgames. Like the pivot walk is okay, but this is going overboard if it's mindgames you're after. =P

P.S. Dryn, I'm sorry I was mean to you today!

You've taken a liking to the Samus boards
Dryn is she helping you mod this place?

Secondly I agree with you, Hence my post about it being neat, but rather useless :s

You were mean to me? If it was the "Dopamine," don't worry about that. I laughed when you taunted and that word came up.

No. SuSa is not a moderator of the Samus room. He isn't a female, either. SuSa originally went by the name, "Havokk."

I'd totally use this for a taunt.

Also, its impossible to keep your hand perfectly still. Impossible. Although you need study hands to be a surgeon. If your unable to keep your hands still ENOUGH you won't be hired.

I'm everywhere, but I only moderate the Link boards.

ps: I'm a guy, but god is it funny when people think I'm a girl, although I make no attempt to appear as one.

It's the Name , BTW I totally knew you as Havokk lmao
I even commented on your blog about changing your name because there was a surplus amount of Havokk's around. I swear my memory just sucks

Secondly your job must be pretty easy, Most of the hard ones to deal with went to AiB lol

 

[DelxDoom]

pretty sure Havokk > SuSa imo and he mods on AiB too

 

[Rhyme]

You can do this while charging D3's jet hammer for some pretty nifty results. But aside from that, I don't think that any practical use for this nameless technique has been found.

 

[harriettheguy]

looks like a great taunt to use

samus' metagame is looking really good right now
