Forum:Melee Tips please?
Hi. I got Melee a couple weeks ago, and I'm still practicing. I'm pretty good at Brawl, but I'm not very good at Melee. Perhaps a pro at the game could help me out. There's a couple things I need tips for. My mains are Kirby, Ness, Mewtwo, Captain Falcon, and Link. Mr. Anon (talk) 21:04, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
Combos
What are some good combos I can do with my mains? I've never been good at comboing, but I thought in Melee it's easier to combo than in Brawl. But I find things to be to the contarary. Mr. Anon (talk) 21:04, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
L canceling
I know how to L-Cancel, but what are the benefits? Most characters' aerials don't have much lag, and how do I know if I have L cancelled? Mr. Anon (talk) 21:04, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
- When you L-Cancel, your landing lag will be reduced approximately by half. To know if you have, simply go to training mode and look at the landing lag of Link's dair. After seeing how much landing lag it has, try L-Cancelling the dair. If done correctly, you will clearly see the difference. The benefits of L-Cancelling are very important, as it allows you to play at a faster speed. Many combos are only possible through L-Cancelling. Ganondorf would have to be the character who benefits from L-Cancelling the most, as it allows him to abuse his very powerful aerials without having to worry about their high landing lag.

Wavedashing
I can wavedash with some effort, but it's hard for me to wavedash multiple times. Furthermore, in training mode, the easiest place to wavedash, I can wavedash by slowing down the speed, but since the C-Stick does not work there, I can't wavesmash or do anything. How should I practice? Mr. Anon (talk) 21:04, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
Short hopping
Perhaps the hardest technique for me to do. How do you short hop with ease? Even when I do short hop, I miss my oppurtunity to SHFFL. Mr. Anon (talk) 21:04, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
