How many Usmash slide cancels (boost smashes) have you hit so far?

I can do it with sheik once 3 or 4 times... but honestly i rather just hyphen smash anyways. Other than that i still have my "vanish-guard" which i can hit at least 1001% of the time so i'm fine with that.

Hyphen smash has different applications. Boost smash at the right distance cannot be shield grabbed... and a double hit boost smash on the shield tears it apart.

If by vanish guard you mean edge guarding with vanish.... then 1001% is ludicrous :p

What can i say i'm from texas... but yeah, as long as i know i have perfected that[vanish guard] i'm good. But the main reason i steer towards not using it [boost smash] in an "in-game" situation is because the few times i have done it... were epic failures. LOl so yeah

You're not the only one here from texas :p



Anyways, I'm not planning on learning how to do her dash canceled up smash because I can fight well without it, I don't want to change my controller settings just for it because I like my controller the way it is.

But hyphen sounds cool ._.

Its all about how it sounds gimpy. Forward smash is plenty informative... but gimpyfish combo simply sounds better.

After talking to squidstir about it a smidge I understand it a little better now.

You don't need to change your controller settings to do it. I play using my index finder on the face buttons thumb for B and c-stick so it's a little more natural for me. in essence it's the same idea as changing your control scheme I suppose.

You tap down on the c stick and hit a with you index instead of have to squeeze a trigger with it. You don't need to change your controls to do any of the advanced techs.

you don't even need to do that but it is a hell of a lot easier, I play with tap jump off. also I thought wavebouncing/b-sticking was something different you can't wavebounce with the normal control scheme.
