What do you think the best button is for jumping? I currently use the R button and it's terrible.

Thankyou everyone! I chose R for jump because when I first tried the gcc, I expected R to be jump, but i found out it was sheild and I changed it to jump.Character and task dependent.
In melee, I think tap was better since a few things you wanted to do quickly. Falco's ledgehop lasers with two lasers low to the stage was easily done with tap, but you had to move faster with your hand if you used X or Y.
Now in brawl, the only real incentive for tap jump is out of shield stuff. You use one hand to jump, then the other to c-stick or press a button. Without tap jump, you might have to jump and press an attack with the same hand. That adds in a delay between the time from jumping and actually attack. Even then, you have the option for shoulder buttons which gives you an extra finger to work with.
I think Y will almost always be the best jump button. Its right in line between A, B and C-stick. So pressing jump and going to any of those buttons is easily within reach. X is more awkward, and I am not sure why you would want to use jump on a shoulder button, but imagine some character has a reason for doing it.
Not to be rude or anything, but uh... why did you expect R to be the jump button?Thankyou everyone! I chose R for jump because when I first tried the gcc, I expected R to be jump, but i found out it was sheild and I changed it to jump.
I always found it a pain to do that, but I think you just tilt it slightly up.How do you utilt with tap jump on? Thankyou for more answers everyone.
I used to play with the WiiChuck, but I always used C to jump, and Z to grab. xDZ on the Wiichuck. But I doubt that helps you any
I'm sorry to bump your post, but what's clawing?Claw > Tap Jump > Standard X/Y
