Tap Jump for Mewtwo

[Zimflare]

I am wondering if tap jump should be on or off when playing mewtwo. I personally have it off but have recently considered having it on. Are any downsides to having it on such as losing a double jump/hover and if so are there are any ways around this? Or is it just better overall to have it off for playing mewtwo?

Also, I think I should add that I know it obviously makes DJC much harder to do, so this is what makes me think tap jump is necessary for mewtwo, but again with the possibility of losing a double jump. And if turning it off is the case, can hover canceling replace the tedious way of DJCing without tap jump?

Tap jump makes it hard to distinguish between hovering upwards and jumping out of hover, I believe.

Instant hover-cancelling is superior to instant DJC. I have R set to jump with tap jump off, and if for some reason I want to do an instant DJC, I do X -> R -> aerial.

Oh ya I get how that would conflict with hovering. Ok I will probably leave it off, especially since I agree with you that hover cancels are superior to DJCs.

I personally have tap jump off. The few others who I know who play mewtwo are the same way, though I believe some do have tap on. I suppose a lot of it is personal preference.

OOS teleport is much easier with tap jump on though, at least for me? Maybe I am doing it wrong with tap jump off.

I just use R for jump for that. Really easy.

Watch some of my videos on the emukiller and other players thread. I play with tap off and it allows me versatility in the air as I hover combo. You see it a lot against neon and aion. My name is kaos.

I play with tap jump off because it's easier for me to maintain control in the air and not accidentally hover. However it really boils down to personal preference.

tap jump off helps with d-tilt to up-tilt combos as well, which are pretty hard on regular controls if you're going to up-tilt on reaction to d-tilt connecting.

So yeah, personal preference but tap jump off is probably better.

Speaking of dtilt to utilt, what about dtilt to hovercancelled uair? Seems to combo into fair much more than dtilt to utilt.

can mewtwo double jump cancel?

Yes but it's pretty irrelevant. HC aerials are better.

Tip for the newbie who clearly spammed their way to 10: it's really not that hard to make 10 decent posts instead of necroing random threads, and whatever url you so desperately needed to link can probably wait the extra 5-10 minutes. It also makes a better first impression.

...but you probably don't care about that since you felt the need to do so in the first place. /shrug
