SSBWU/3DS Ganondorf Wizard's Foot Ledge Cancel Edgeguard

[Dire Creeper]

I was messing around with Ganondorf, seeing if I could find anything new. I'm well aware that his down special can be cancelled by the ledge if positioned correctly, but I never thought of using it as a quick edgeguard. After the down special cancels, you're able to do one of several choices out of it, such as an aerial, up special (to edgeguard as well) or even as a mindgame on someone with a side special back toward them.

Here's an example of a down special edgeguard:

The positioning in Final Destination to perform this is around halfway between the very center and the end of that light circle in the center. Feel free to experiment with this and try it out! I hope you've enjoyed reading my findings.

This is a very common usage of the Wizkick Cancel technique but props for thinking of it on your own. I just watched better Ganons use it, that's how I learned to do it.

How do you perform Wizkick Cancel?

Wizard's kick a specific area of the stage so you just slide off. Distance changes on whether or not you hit someone.

How do you perform Wizkick Cancel?

If you down-B so that right when the end lag animation (where Ganondorf skids to a stop or does a flip in midair) happens, you cross over the edge, neither animation will play and you can act extremely fast out of down-B. Great for long range edge trumps, unexpected edge guards, or spacing shenanigans onstage.

Thank you! will try it out and hopefully incorporate into my plays haha. Sounds really useful

I just checked it: it's two rolls. When you stand on the very ledge and you roll back twice, you have the distance to wizkick cancel.
