V-cancelling or Velocity cancelling is a technique that decreases the knockback velocity of moves in certain situations. This is done by pressing L or R 3 frames before the hitboxes collide. In order to V-cancel a player must be in the air, not in hitstun, not in an attack animation, and cannot have pressed L or R within the last 40 frames. V-cancelling reduced the initial knockback velocity to .95x the original, generally meaning that the decrease in knockback is around 5%.
It was discovered and documented by Achilles1515 in September 2015.
