'''V-cancelling''' or '''Velocity cancelling''' is a technique that decreases the knockback velocity of moves in certain situations. This is done by pressing [[L]] or [[R]]  3 frames before the hitboxes collide. In order to V-cancel a player must be in the air, not in [[hitstun]], and cannot have pressed L or R within the last 40 frames. V-cancelling reduced the initial knockback velocity to .95x the original, generally meaning that the decrease in knockback is around 5%.
