I...actually didn't. I'm trying to lose weight so I only ate like a normal person. Sorry guysHappy Thanksgiving guys.
Who's gonna eat like a Yoshi tonight?
DR is not a requisite to playing a high-level Yoshi, since Scatz is the only Yoshi to ever really apply DR to his game.Hey Yoshi's, do you guys think it's worth the time to learn Dragonic Reverse? I need to find out what you guys think about that before I try to learn Lucas's DJ cancel thing that's a lot harder than DR'ing.
Thanks I'm not intending on playing Yoshi though, I just wanted to know if you Yoshi's used your DR before I decided to learn the same thing with Lucas but a ton harder. Seems like it's not necessary though so I won't bother practicing it, thanks againDR is not a requisite to playing a high-level Yoshi, since Scatz is the only Yoshi to ever really apply DR to his game.
With that said, DR is useful to learn. It gives Yoshi more guaranteed options off grab releases and gives him the ability to quickly stop or change directions out of a dash.
Do you play Yoshi with tap jump on? If you do, then it won't be too hard to pick up DR; just tap up, X/Y, A. Easy.
If, like most Yoshis, you have tap jump off when you play Yoshi (recommended to minimize the risk of losing your DJ when using egg toss offstage), it depends on how seriously you intend on playing Yoshi because the easiest way to DR with Yoshi involves adopting the Y-B-C-stick setup:
A: attack
B: jump
X: special
Y: jump
C-stick: smash
L: whatever (generally shield/jump)
R: whatever (generally shield/jump)
This way, with one thumb slide, you can hit Y, B, and the C-stick down, giving you the jump, double jump, and aerial (cancel) necessary for the DR. Much easier than tapping X/Y twice and A. This is the controller setup many Yoshis use, including Scatz (who pioneered this setup), Airborne, Delta-cod, Sharky, and myself. Everyone that seriously plays Yoshi should use this setup.
Now, learning a new control setup isn't as hard as it looks or sounds. While it does take an adjustment period, it probably took me about a week or two to get fully accustomed to this setup, to the point where I never accidentally hit B when I wanted to do a special.
If you're just messing around with Yoshi for fun, and don't intend to use him seriously, i.e. in tourneys and such, there's not much of a reason to change your controls for a character you play only casually. Now don't get me wrong, it's not like other characters are unplayable with Y-B-C-stick. The only difference between this and the default tap-off control scheme is that the Y and B buttons have traded roles. I play with other characters all the time, and Y-B-C-stick doesn't make it any harder to play those characters compared to the default tap-off setup. If you're willing to go through a short adjustment period to a new control scheme just to play a casual character, that's great; I just can't see most people doing that.
But does your family? This is my first year I miss Thanksgiving. Had a lot of school work to do.Not me.
I haven't celebrated anything in the past 3 or 4 years. Thanksgiving being one of them on the list.
Thanks. Fixed.Silent, Y doesn't change in the setup. X and B does. XD
