Gotta hold the Z.

AAZ. The light shield pops up after the lag of the gentlemen. But it's great because you can easily cancel out of the shield with a jump, wavedash, or roll.

Why are some of you giving him different ways to do the gentlemen? he's asking about the AAZ method, it's obvious.


Hax: It's A A Hold Z until shield pops up.



There are tons of methods and many claim they work. I personally use AAZ but I used to use AA(A+Z) in which there was no shield. There is no solid evidence on why the gentlemen works or why it doesn't. AAZ is the most definite method, it's only side effect is the light shield.

thanks man i've pretty much got it down now.. this is great for getting opponent's off of you.

i'm just practicing WDing out of the lightshield, but i'm sure i'll get that down too eventually. :)
