I want to go to Pound 5 but I have a huge prior commitment currently slated for "February 2011" so I hope it doesn't coincide with Pound. Why couldn't it have been on MLK Weekend again? =(

Before I read any of these posts...who L-cancels by slightly pressing in the R/L button rather than fully pressing it in?

EDIT: Pretty sure I'm close to 80% confirmed for Pound 5. Seeing as I can never get vids up of my Falcon, I'll be expecting some of you kids to analyze me and tell me what I'm doing wrong(minus tech chasing >_<)!

i dont think it takes any more time since you don't have to push the button down til it clicks. even a simple light shield (barely holding down a trigger) would cause the L cancel :p

Nonono, the reasoning I ask this is because not pressing it past the point of clicking means you won't 40 frame yourself and can still tech even if you go for an L-cancel when getting hit. I was just wondering if anyone gave a crap about it or just figures "Aw ****" when that situation happens xP

gooey, yeah thats a good idea and i miss tons of techs for that reason, but l canceling is so subconscious to me i dont know if i could change

kk-whats the deal dude i felt like i was pretty much able to keep up with you at the first rom when i played you, now youre getting third at nationals? how did you do that

i tech alot of **** cause i was trying to l-cancel.

true story.
this. it works both ways. pressing it fully causes you to miss techs and hit unintentionally.

on another note, Im forced to use L because my right index finger is broken and cant bend sufficiently to utilize the R button.

good thing i was always an L-canceller.

you can shield.. jump let go of shield and tap it against asap, OR hold it down slightly, then jump and then press the R button til it clicks, and it'll still do the wavedash.

I have a weird system. If I just shield straight up (like from a run or whatever) I use R, and I wavedash out of shield with R. But if I l-cancel into a shield, I use L to shield.
