'''Auto-canceling''' is the act of landing during the beginning or ending [[frame]]s of an [[aerial attack]] and circumventing the landing lag that would have occurred had the character landed in the middle. Auto-canceling an attack usually produces almost no landing lag, when landing during the middle frames would produce greater landing lag. Most aerial attacks can be auto-cancelled both during the first few frames or the last few frames, though some cannot be auto-cancelled at the start, at the end, or even both. Every attack has a specific auto-cancelling window. Characters that fail to auto-cancel can instead [[L-cancel]] (outside of ''Brawl''). Auto-canceling can be very beneficial to players using characters with laggy aerial attacks, as this can reduce the amount of landing lag produced, and create more time for the character to act, potentially avoiding [[punishment]] that could have been made if the player had not auto-cancelled. | |||
