Toonlink/Link technique + tutorial: quickdraw (bow cancel)

The quickdraw is essentially a cancelled "bow draw" animation, making Link's and TL's arrow shot animation faster (i.e. the arrow comes out quicker).

To achieve this, just shoot the bow and arrow just before hitting the ground. In this video, I show several scenarios where this simple technique can be used.

I was not the first to discover this technique, I am just putting together this tutorial. I hope the name (quickdraw) is suitable.

Please sticky if appropriate.


For some gameplay see some MellowD matches:

Thanks for the notification 3xS. I was thinking bowcancel would be easiest, but i'm not too attached to the name anyway. Too bad the catchy name is taken =p
