I'm sure nobody has posted about this, but a new Technique available to all characters has been discovered by a redditor by the name of achilles1515 after he found it out by reverse engineering Melee's engine
V Canceling reduces your Knock-back velocity by 5% allowing for way better recoveries to moves that even D.I. couldn't save you from. You do this by inputing L or R during the 3 frames that a hitbox connects to you. You must be falling or jumping for this to work and you must have not pressed L or R during the last 40 frames. You also can't spam L or R to do this due to the 40 frame window.
Here's some Videos about this new technique:

So, you can discuss this technique here. It's universal, so it really doesn't belong to any character threads. It's also very new... like it was 1 day before I made this thread. I hope this technique may have some impact on competitive play
