The L Button

[magister54]

This post doesn't have to specifically apply to Falco, but, I wanted to know more about the L button or the triggers in general.

When I am L-cancelling, wavedashing, JC, etc. I press on the trigger completely. Is there some sensitivity built into the triggers like there is for the X and Y buttons? If so, would it be better to lightly press the trigger rather than fully click down, or is there no benefit to doing so?

My idea was that the button sensitivity in the X and Y buttons allows short hoping, which in turn can be used to minimize time spent while increasing total button outputs, and I wanted to know if this concept can be applied to using the triggers (meaning a more time efficient way to L-cancel, wavedash, etc.).

You have to full press to wavedash (you cannot light press air dodge iirc) but it is beneficial to light press L cancel because not only is it faster, but if you get hit when trying you L cancel you won't accidently tech lock yourself.

The x/y buttons have nothing to do with sensitivity. It has to do with how quickly the button is depressed. The shoulder buttons do have sensitivity (analog).

I think that the X and Y buttons are sensitive, but they are responding sensitively to time rather than pressure?

Okay so I full press for wavedashing (and I assume that includes wavelanding, waveshining, etc.) but always light press for L canceling. Oh good put with avoiding the tech locking, that makes a lot of sense. Are there any other applications of light vs. full press in regard to the triggers?

The only other thing would be light shielding.
