L or R?

[finalcloud13]

Hi, do you guys find yourselves using L or R to shield/WD/etc.? And why is it called L-Cancel? Can it not be done with R?

I find myself using only L, because I'm used to it from SSB64...

Well its called L-Cancel because it stands for "lag cancel." There is a sticky somewhere with all of the terms defined. It can be done with both.

Just remember that it's handy to wavedash with one and shield with the other, so you can wavedash out of your shield. :D

I saw a thread abit ago were people put what they used to WD, shield, tech and jump, look that up and you'll find a huge variety of styles, is not like if we all do with R or L I, myself jump with Y, WD with YLm shield with R and tech with L, dont know why, its just natural, and as stated above L-cancel means lag cancel, the land lag of a finished aerial attack(A button attacks, not B)

[Micheloxx]

umm, i use l, is more omfortale for me i dont know, i just like it more..

 

[UltiMario]

R for Shielding and WDing
L for L Cancelling

 

[Xenfas]

I usually use L to wavedash. I use R to roll and such.

 

[BrandonOwnageking]

L theres to much hapenning on the right side already c-stick, a button etc.

 

[Snowstorm]

L for everything. I need some room over on that right side!

 

[Cereal Rabbit]

WD ~ R
Jump ~ Y
L Cancel ~ L
Shield ~ R
Nair/Bair/Fair ~ A
Uair/Dair ~ C-Stick
Smash ~ C-Stick

 

[Yoshi'stheBombers7]

L for WDing- R for rolling and L-Canceling.

 

[muesli]

If I have to play with R I will lose every match, its easy L for shield, dash, "L"-Cancel and all the other stuff you do with ur shield. An it easier to press Z to grab!

I use L for wavedashing and shielding, but I find myself switching between the two for L-canceling.

 

[Egret]

I use R for everything (teching, sheild, wd, airdodge) except L for l-Canceling because I can't train myself to do the tech timing and the l-cancel timing with the same finger.

 

[Mike87]

I use R for alot of things, mostly because I'm right handed.
Its just more comfortable for me that way

 

[1wingedangel]

Although I'm left handed I use the R-button for shielding, l-canceling etc. Well, I don't know why but I simply can't use the L-button.

 

[Jammer]

I use L for lag canceling and teching, and, very rarely, shielding. R for everything else.


I'm left-handed, by the way.

 

[Itakio]

I use L for everything but dash canceled grabs which I use Z for. It's more comfortable because I don't have to have a finger on R and Z at the the same time. I'm right handed.

 

[Bailey]

L to Lag Cancel that biatch. Then R to Wave dash that biatch.

 

[C@sH Mooney]

I used R for wavedashing,shielding,and L-canceling since I'm right handed as well.

Same here.

I can wavedash out of lightshield using R alone. I know that shielding and lightshielding are different, but it's still technically wavedashing out of shield.

 

[fishman3114]

I always use R

 

[the656]

If the L stands for lag how come it was called Z cancel in 64

 

[SonicLuigi]

i find my self varying using both, but moslty using r to attempt to wavedash....still working on it...but improving :D

 

[MrHazuki]

My WDs won't get very far if I use L, most recognaiseable to the left. That's why I've changed and made R my WD and WL button. Everything else L.

i use R to shield WD and i use L to l-cancel O,o

everyone else uses R to do all 3, but i dunno, im used to l-canceling with L *shrug*

it makes it easier on my cuz im a fox, so if i shffl with a d-air, i would l cancel and use R to shield + grab, makes it easier on me.

 

[_SSnakeKen]

use the L button because your right hand is all ready focused on the main buttons. if you adept to l you all ready have your index resting on that trigger it will improve you WD response time also making it more coordinated because of the control stick in relation to your left hand on L

 

[S.R. XXVII]

I use L for everything except shielding and Shield grabbing, and sometimes teching.

 

[MaNg0]

L son

It just makes things easier

 

[marthmaster04]

Wavedash, L-cancel, roll, tech- All R button.
