You can LD2 out of anything

It's just certain things you buffer it out of that makes it pretty looking

Those things are: Ledge Options, Taunts, Grabs, Ice Block, Belay, Both facing forward blizzard, Rolls, Spot dodges, Crouch. I SUSPECT that desynced Squall also works, but I have not tested it
Iirc it does. DELUCKS critique my videos in the thread plx. Hearts!

i refuse to learn ld1 and 2 unless there is any good ic with a legit result on a national that uses both of them :D

i'm not the type who enjoys to learn difficult stuff if there is no need for it. i mean this is pretty handy i admit but i don't know if it's worth the effort.

I would think that you would want to learn as many techniques with your character as possible. More options is always great.

Also it amazes me how people can write something off as hard to learn before even trying to learn it. Its not that difficult. Mastering is the hard part.

And I can say that LD1 and 2 are definitely worth it. It's given so much more depth to my desynch game and the best part about these is that there aren't any visual cues associated with them. The things is that no top level ICs have a mastery over this yet. Aside from Lux, I don't know if anyone does. I'm almost there. I can use it out of just about every situation now. I'm just learning how to use correctly. It takes time to learn how to master a desynch as fast as this and knowing when to use it. Ive had the most use out of Shield, Spotdodge, empty shorthops and dash attacks surprisingly.

It's not hard to understand, but it's hard to pull off at all. I honestly don't understand how anyone could master it.

The better i got at them, the more I started using them so I pretty much use:

LD1&2, SND, Kakera's and Hitlag as my main ones since each of them are used in different ways and vary in degrees of how offensive or defensive they are.

Squall, Belay and RID for the occasional mixups.

If my LD1/2 game isn't work, I'll start throwing out HD2, LD4, and LD5 against DK's out of frustration

Fact

Welcome to the boards. Just a warning before posting anything "serious", look over as much stuff as you can to get a better grasp of the character, wouldn't want everybody here flaming you.

So geeked, that I have gotten a handle of Lux Desynch out of shield now. Oh man I can't wait to bust this one out in tournament. The applications...<3

So now the only things I can not consistently do it out of are specials minus Squall, spotdodge, and crouch and run halt. I can now do it consistently out of every single tilt, aerial, and smash as well as Jab and Dash attack. And I can do it from landing as well. So almost there. Just need to figure out which ones are the most worth it.
