Man in hats.
How to WD (Wave Dash): Jump by pressing X or Y and then air dodge diagonaly towards the ground before you actually leave the ground. Jump, then hold the controllstick down and right or down and left while performing an airdodge. You know that you've succesfully performed a WD when your character glide backward or forward without leaving the ground. This is the easiest to do with Luigi so try it with him in training mode first. The WD is an advanced technique and it takes a lot of prectise to master. In the begining it may be hard to find any use for it in battle, but it's actually an effective manuver that can be used both offensively and defensively. If you feel that it's too hard to perform or that you can't find any use for it then, that's fine. It's not a vital technique, but it's rather useful with most characters. Short hoping is an incredibly useful technique with most characters, especially when you can fast fall, and L-Cansel attacks out of it. It's pretty hard to perform with some characters like Fox since you'll have to release the jump button before the character actually leaves the ground. It's very easily done by, for example, Mewtwo and Zelda, though. This can be used mainly to quickly perform aerial attacks on oponents on the ground but it can be useful in other situations as well and it's great for combos. Also... remember to act quickly. Don't give your oponent any time to think or even breath, speed is a good weapon for any character as long as you can controll it. Keep practising and you may eventually get almost as good as me... *cough* (just kidding, it's not like I'm the world champion or something) No, seriously... it's just great to see that there's so many others who enjoy this great game. ALL HAIL SSBM!!!
You can suck too, if you want. *Hands vacuum*
Use the force, oh mighty Sith Staff! The JK's (Jedi Knights) don't stand a chanse against you dark powers!
If I had a hat for every time I said the word hat, I'd have two hats at once.
