(Kinda) Pivot Smashing with the C-Stick

[Gidy]

So you know how when attempting a pivot smash with the c-stick you would end up dash attacking? There is a workaround to this.

Normally, a true pivot smash is only doable in the first couple frames of the dash and it would give you almost no range from where you were standing.

However, I found that if you turn around when dashing, making you enter your turn around animation, you can cancel that turn around animation with a Smash attack. This works with the C-stick as well.

Input: Dash > Opposite Direction of Dash > Smash Attack after entering turn around animation.

For me, this is a reason to adapt to the weird C-Stick mechanics in this game instead of changing it to attack.

You can cancel Turnaround animation with F-tilt, F-smash, and jump.

Yeah, I noticed I'm the 3DS version that I could do "pivot" aerials too.

Well, nothing more here. Mods close thread please.
