'''Edge-canceled eggs''' (abbreviated as '''ECE''') is a [[planking]] [[:Category:Techniques|technique]] performed by [[Yoshi]] that is performed by releasing from the [[edge]], by pressing down or away from the edge, double jumping, and then [[Egg Throw|throwing an egg]]. This must be done fast enough so that when done, the player does not land on the [[stage]] or too far above the edge. After the egg is thrown, the player can grab onto the edge, canceling all [[lag]] and renewing the edge [[invincibility frame]]s. Players such as {{sm|aMSa}} are notorious for doing this to stall, and being able to do this for extended periods of time.
 
==Reverse edge-canceled eggs==
'''Reverse edge-canceled eggs''' (abbreviated "'''RECE'''") is a technique similar to ECE. Reverse edge-canceled eggs are performed in generally the same way, but instead of launching the eggs towards the stage, the eggs are launched outwards. This is done by quickly turning around with the player's second jump. This is a more risky alternative because if missed, Yoshi will plummet to his death. This technique is not possible in ''Brawl'', as Yoshi can no longer toss his eggs backwards.
 
==Usefulness==
Edge-cancelled eggs is a rather useful technique in the first three games, due to allowing Yoshi to easily [[camp]], [[space]], and play defensively while countering opponent [[approach]]es.  The reverse edge-cancelled eggs technique is a pretty risky but useful [[edgeguarding]] tactic if one can perform it consistently, giving Yoshi strong ledge play.
