I'm not even really sure how to phrase this question, but i would like to say it is aimed at Vist, Eddy Mexico, and Pakman specifically b/c as it seems, barring ka-master and ppao you guys are the best at WDing. Essentially my question is how do you guys control your wavedashes, and how often is it important to control the length. For instance, i often see Ka-Master do short wavedashes when he is out of range of his opponent, but he almost always approaches with a longer WD. The obvious benefit of it is that it is much faster, so the surprise factor comes in.
My problem is that I really want to bring my game to a higher level, but i play against alot of players who are ridiculously good at shutting down approaches that aren't perfectly spaced (Taj, Forward, and to a lesser extent TAI and Axe). I always feel like im WDing too far and it is sloppy and overcommited, or if im wding shorter, i just have trouble controlling the distance. I was thinking about maybe only practicing wding at certain lengths and then using those lengths when considering spacing, because up until now i just play it by feel but it isn't consistent.
Summary Question: Do you guys have any tips (besides practice alot) on how to control wavedashing in regards to spacing.
P.S. If you need to use an example, marth would be great, i have trouble baiting things from him without getting caught by a dtilt or fsmash b/c i WD too far and can't get out fast enough
