Heyro ppl just wonderin which would you rather have in brawl (look at teh title) I would prefer Wavedashing and L Canceling.

EDIT: Ok i've decided to spilt all 3 up so it's between Melee's hitstun,Wavedashing and L canceling I would've put it in the title but I don't know how to edit my title lol

Hitstun. I miss long stringed combos, and some moves auto cancel anyways. As for wavedashing... well i did like it, but I still think that hitstun is more crucial.

L-canceling/WDing to increase offensive and mindgame techniques.

And people, don't waste your time with comments opposing this topic.

I never learned L-Cancelling or Wavedashing when I played Melee, but I guess that was because I didn't play it competitively. But I hear that L-Cancelling really helped C. Falcon. So... Since I'm a C. Falcon mainer, I'd have to say I want L-Cancelling back. And by the way... If they put L-Cancelling in, doesn't that mean Wavedashing is back in? Because basically you're asking if we would want the Hitstun from Melee or Directional Air-Dodges. :confused:

L-canceling had nothing to do with directional air dodges. You just press L when you hit the ground, during an arial, and the lag was reduced. No dodge involved.



Given these choices, I vote hitstun. I never cared much for wavedashing, and L-canceling really didn't add any depth. It was just an arbitrary extra button to press.

Oh, thanks for the correction. :) I never used L-Cancelling or Wavedashing, so I don't know much about it either.
