jump + ___ timings?

[Tyson651]

is it just me or when u short hop and try a dair, the timing is very weird in the sense that, if u do it really fast or do it a little slow, it will work, but when u time it at a medium speed, snake just short hops and does nothing? something with the timing. is it just too fast? cause when i flick down on the c-stick like how i flick for the mortar slide (which is fast), it works, when i dont rush it, it works, but when i just do a regular short hop to down on the c-stick he jumps a lot of the times.

it really pisses me off when im trying to short hop dair, and it doesnt come out, and i wind up with an empty short hop, or better yet, a hit back lol..

or maybe i just really suck at the timing. any help on that?

edit: it sometimes happens when ur doing a short hop DI forward/backward airdodge..

I think I know what you're saying, and it happens to me, too.
I shorthop-dair out of shield to land all four kicks, but the dair doesn't happen and I just end up with an empty shorthop.
I always thought it was because I was flicking c-stick down too early.

ya, thats exactly what im talking about. i was thinking it was hitting the c stick too early, but when i try to flick it as fast as i can, it works, for some weird reason.

i really want to kno the timing, does anyone else kno about this?

Are you sh out of shield? I sometimes sh out of shd and airdodge canceling my dair...

As far as timing goes I always do it, unless I do above^.

Work on your timing..When I get home I'm going to work on mine. Pretty pumped!
