I hear alot about how everyone needs to L-cancel, and that if you want to win you gotta WD, or that quick-jumping is the key to survival. Well, I'm wondering if all this stuff really makes you better, or its just a bunch of "black smoke" that just makes you look fancy.
Now, before I explain, let me tell you that I L-Cancel, CC, and quick jump with almost all of my characters, so I have nothing against them at all. WDing on the other hand...I'll get to that later.
I've been playing alot of my buddies, and alot of outside competition, and I've noticed a deepening trend...those who WD and/or L-Cancel...don't really have that much of an advantage. One of my friends is real good, but knows NONE of these so-called "advanced" techniques, and gets beat-down on my buddies (and soemtiems even me) just as easily. He doesn't do anything fancy, he just gets the job done. And it seems, that if maybe he DID learn all that fancy mumbo-jumbo, he would lose more often. Its not because WDing, or CCing isn't helpful, its just he doesn't seem to need it and is fine on his own.
The message I'm getting across here is...do you really need to know these things to be good? Can you be just as successful without them?
On Wave Dashing IMO WDing is the biggest waste of skill on the planet. Sure it looks nice, and it makes ya seem real good but in the end its nothing more than eye-candy. The ONLY character I could see a use for it, is maybe Luigi. Other than that, the WD isn't needed.
