Fox SHDL training

[LuLuLicious]

I have found out a easy way learning Short Hop Double Laser.
You can performe a SHDL with your control stick, X or Y for this methode, it does not matter.
In training mode you have to choose fox and your opponent Roy, pick a flat stage like Final Destination or Battlefield.
Roy's height is just tall enough to miss your first laser short hop if you are quick enough.
If you are too late, you will hit Roy with your first laser and can not perform SHDL further.
After you got the right timing with your first laser,
the only thing left is to be quick enough to press b again for the second laser before you hit the ground.

I am a nooby fox player and this worked for me, hopefully this will help some other fox beginners.
Love Melee <3

I realize nobody has posted here in the month that's it's been up, but I feel the need to say this anyway (seeing as how you're exploiting Roy's height to do this), due to the off chance that somebody will see this.

First of all, I'm a bit confused by what you're saying; I don't quite grasp the meanings considering your word choices.

However, disregarding that, In my personal experience, It's always been best to try the proper way to perform a technique, rather than take shortcuts. It always benefits me greater in the long run. This not only applies to Smash, but also tasks such as twirling a ball on your finger or some random **** like that. This is because of "muscle memory."

The basic summary of muscle memory is based around your brain. Whenever performing any physical act, your brain will remember your muscle's position, force it used, direction it traveled, speed it moved, etc. Whether you succeed or **** up, your brain will remember. Your brain subconsciously sorts through all your attempts at the act you tried, and it will throw out the failed attempts, like a filing cabinet. This process is even more active in your sleep. The next time you attempt the task, your brain will have adjusted the commands to give to your muscles, hence the term, "muscle memory."

Therefor, the more you use the proper technique, the faster your brain will adjust how it tells the muscles to move to accomplish the task. This makes it take less time to perfect a technique. However, some people use shortcuts to help themselves learn how the technique works. Then, once they understand, they use the proper way. So, jumping right in doing it the proper way won't be the best option for everybody, but I felt like I had to throw my two cents out there.
