eggs vs. dragon-dash, can you have both?

[buenob]

ok so i've been trying to learn yoshi, and i can do the double-jump-smash cancel thing (i think it's called dragon-dash or something) and I can smash out of it, it's kinda fun to throw in a running down-smash, especially if their shield is small from blocking your eggs...

the only problem is that i gimp myself 99% of the time doing the ledge-egg guarding (ie air-egg will eat my 2nd jump most of the time) with tap jump on

anyone got a controller setup they use that allows both to be used easily?

I've got that exact same problem, do I swicth tap jump off and make egg techniques easier... or do I keep it on and keep dragonic reverse. I think it would be pretty dificult to be able to consistently pull off the DR in battle without tap jump.

lol i switched all the d-pad off of taunt and on to jump, and if I focus really REALLY hard i can do u/d and do it, but it's so impractical, and works like 1/15 times... the problem is tap jump works differently than a button for jump, if you hold the jump button any other button mapped to jump doesn't trigger unless the first is released...

which means inputting jump-jump-attack in a rediculously short time is nigh impossible without tap jump, just wondering if anyone had any success... first time i tried i was sliding my finger from y-x and i got some decent results (1/20) but the dpad works better...

Just press YYA, I get at least 4 in a row. If i can do it with joint damage in my thumb, anyone can.

hm, i actually haven't tried tapping the same button twice... wow, simple solutions...

guess i wanted the controller to make up for my shortfalls

Even with the same button twice, it's ridiculously harder with no Tap Jump.

Even so, practice makes perfect and in the long run your yoshi would be more effective if you kept tap jump off.
