The wavelanded laser, also known as a falling wavelanding laser, is an advanced technique in Melee that can be performed by Falco, Fox and Kirby. This technique is possible because firing the Blaster while falling off of a platform causes Falco, Fox and Kirby to face the opposite direction. The goal is to shoot an opponent that is landing, standing, or falling and make a direct hit. The tricky part of this move is trying to get the Blaster to go directly where the player wants it to go. Because of the speed of Falco's laser, he won't be able to shoot an opponent directly on the platform, but he can only shoot the opponent if he or she falls through. This can be either advantageous or disadvantageous for Falco at times. The Wavelanded Laser is achieved by firing the Blaster as soon as Falco, Fox, or Kirby fires the Blaster immediately upon Wavedashing or Wavelanding off of a platform and facing away from the opponent. If the Wavelanded Laser is done correctly, Falco, Fox, or Kirby will slide backwards off the platform, face their opponent, and shoot the Blaster. It's much harder to shoot the laser while facing the opponent because the player automatically turns in the opposite direction as soon as they shoot the laser, and because Wavedashing and Wavelanding forward usually causes the player to trip then stumble on the edge of the platform. The player can also perform a falling Waveshine laser, but not a falling Wavelanded double laser.
