Overall, Oil Panic is an even greater tool against projectiles, being a safer move which can now reflect non-absorbable projectiles although in exchange, the reward for filling up the bucket and using the oil spill (while still extremely high) is lower than it was before. Nevertheless, it still remains an excellent tool in Mr. Game & Watch's kit.

===Bucket sliding===
Prior to patch 2.0.0, activating Oil Panic on frame 18 of Mr. Game and Watch's dash animation and then immediately moving the control stick forward again would allow him to move around at full dash speed with Oil Panic active. This coupled with the bucket's newfound ability to reflect physical projectiles gave Mr. Game and Watch a powerful approach option. Absorbing an energy projectile or being hit would end the bucket slide, but reflecting a physical projectile would not. The user could also turn around while the bucket slide is active in order to move in the opposite direction. This was quickly removed however.
