New Tech ? Double Hop Waveland

[NhgrtPlayer]

The full hop of Kirby is crap.
Basically, in order to reach a plateform (think Battlefield or Poke Std 2) you have to wait the end of the Full Hop before you can move again on the said plateform, you got like 1-frame window of waveland, good luck with that. And the full hop is pretty slow.

BUT if you rapidly double hop (Up then X or Y right after), you'll be just above the plateform, so you can waveland on it, and act WAY faster than with the full hop.
I made a video, 'hope it will be enough for you to understand this (new ?) technique (I didn't see any Kirby players do it) :

I already do this. Would've figured other Kirbys would too (especially with perfect wavelands).

While this is useful, I wouldn't call it a "technique"; it's literally just a double jump. Players do this intuitively all the time.

lol this is like a 2004 Melee Kirby thing

Well, it looks like I've got like 11 years techs to learn then ! :D

At least you are trying to help kirbys even if it is already known.

Thanks for the contribution! I just thought of doing this to swallow on platforms instead of a full hop swallow.

Pretty sure full hop swallow is almost always better. It covers every option waveland swallow does, without having to deal with swallow's endlag putting you at risk while on the platform

This good for any character not just Kirby
