New rosalina tech found, dubbed 'Lunar Jump'

Instead of Lunar Landing where Luma attacks and Rosalina lands, you can now do the reverse Luma does a grounded attack and Rosalina jumps to do what she pleases in the air.

Rosalina can jump while Luma does a grounded move. Rosalina can do Nair while Luma Dtilts for example, but any combination works.

The execution is quite hard. Frame one you have to execute an attack while grounded, such as Dtilt, Ftilt or Utilt. The second frame you have to jump as Rosalina. You can buffer any Aerial such as Uair, Nair, Dair or Bair. This results in Luma doing the grounded attack and Rosalina the aerial.

This newly discovered technique opens up a lot of cover, pressure and combo options. The applications are numerous.

That's actually so good though, literally step 1 of turning her into zato-1
Couldn't you do luna tilts into a rosalina diagonal airdodge down?
Being evasive as Rosa with a luma attack out would be much more important imo

Yeah, you can do that. It's hard, but you can do it.

This seems to be a lot like Dash Attack Canceling with Rosa and by that I mean really cool but I doubt it will be implemented in actual play until a few years from now or maybe not even ever.

The requirements are too tight especially for pressing multiple inputs at different very specific times and messing it up is a huge deal. It's just too risky to pull off in general.
