In ''Melee'', [[Fox (SSBM)|Fox]] can shl and shdl, and both techniques are used to camp and "tack on" small amounts of damage, but are much less effective at stopping approaches, due to the lack of hitstun that Fox's lasers deal. Fox's shl and shdl | In ''Melee'', [[Fox (SSBM)|Fox]] can shl and shdl, and both techniques are used to camp and "tack on" small amounts of damage, but are much less effective at stopping approaches, due to the lack of hitstun that Fox's lasers deal. Fox's shl and shdl are considered more safe and flexible than shooting lasers from the ground, for a number of reasons. Short hops can be maneuvered toward or away from the opponent, and the lag caused by landing takes less time than that which occurs during a grounded blaster's cool-down animation. | ||
As [[Falco (SSBM)|Falco]], the shl is used to [[camping|camp]] and disrupt and slow opponents' ground movement and approaches. Continuous strings of Falco’s shl are faster to execute than continuous grounded lasers. | As [[Falco (SSBM)|Falco]], the shl is used to [[camping|camp]] and disrupt and slow opponents' ground movement and approaches.

===Moving and weaving== | |||
Fox and Falco are able to cover horizontal distance while airborne during the shl and, in Fox's case, the shdl. By pushing the control stick left or right shortly after tapping B, Fox and Falco can move forward or backward after firing a laser. With Fox, B can be pressed a second time during the control stick movement, in order to fire a second laser and perform a moving shdl. While this technique allows for horizontal aerial movement, it prevents players from fastfalling; slowing the speed at which they return to the ground. The moving shl and shdl can be used to approach and retreat while shooting lasers at an opponent, and is often more effective for this purpose than the regular shl and shdl combined with ground movement. The technique can also be used to move swiftly in and out of an opponent's attack range while damaging them, a technique known as weaving. | |||
