The gentleman?

I've easiest way is A, A, then A immediately followed by Z for most I've heard of.

Im'a give yall a little secret I figured out a while ago. This is a really superbly easy way to shield cancel the gentleman every time.

A [First punch]
A [Second punch]
Z and hold it. [Knee, and then lightshield]

Your light shield will pop up after the third knee, then you can quickly wavedash out of your shield. This becomes a lot easier once you get the timing down. (Oh and btw you have to hit with the punches on a char for this to work. It won't work if you just punch the air)

Of course shield cancelling isn't as fast as the traditional cancel. In fact I don't think this method is really possible to follow up. But it is really easy to perform and the wavedash out of shield afterwards gives you some protection/freedom of movement.

You don't need to wait between any of the punches and doing A>A>Z sucks because it makes your shield pop up... why will you ever want that when you just can do it right and do w.e after

lol just make sure you hit them with at least one punch or it wont work.

This method works for me like.. 90% of the time but I used to mess up gentleman a lot.. Hope it helps:

Press A>A>and hold A like if were to shield grab someone and wait for falcon to finish -this part if the most important because you need to wait perfectly enough so falcon doesnt do those stupid rapid punches, but practice and you should get the timing-> then quickly tap forward to dash and attack/grab or do whatever you want.

Something you should consider a lot is that button pressing must be done FAST rather than rhythmically.

i think he uses AA and hold the third A but he knows how to aim the three hits so they arent interrumped and cancels the punches.
man just what i said -_-

and the shield pop up u say is to block the punches too

and if you do it as you say you have to hit with all 3 parts,how i said u dont need to
