Ultimate's Secret Defense Tech - Dash Shielding 

I just learned it on my own.

Dash attack cancel aerial

@@salvatore1893 So attack cancel in general?

I did know about it, but I didn't realize how good it was.

Dash shield here, 2:09 is actually frame 1 and normal shield after your dash is frame 13. Your shield is out on that frame there is just no a visual for it till frame 2. Well there is an animation on frame 1 but the shield bubble pops up on frame 2.

I’ve played the game since launch, as well as Smash 4 and never knew about this. How I won any tournaments is beyond me because I was doing the laggy option every time.

same lmao

It is.

Is that the best dash shield in the game?

@@Simbaninogaming Yes, tied with Sheik

Void talked about it

@@Snowballsage I haven't watched any of his videos

Interesting!

Same boat! Hard to catch up but this game is too fun to quit.

That is 100% correct, I know this from testing stuff out in training mode from time to time

Yes it's right here! ultimateframedata.com/stats.php I believe it's "Dash frames"

No because youre holding the input

What do you mean by dashwalking? Dash continued into walking?

I'm not papa Solo but I can still help. If you get rolls you're probably inputting the command R too quickly after the dash. Try simply flicking the stick for the dash and holding it, then press R.

Nice

@@eyeris4050 Forgot about this and never updated the comment but I did lab it out at the time, so thanks for the comment. For clarity these are the two methods to shield out of run we're comparing: 1) dash --> let go of forward --> shield 2) dash --> keep holding forward --> shield By letting go of forward after dashing you're forced to finish you're initial dash and can only shield after the initial dash completes (1). However if you keep holding forward you're initial dash will transition into a run and a run can be cancelled with shield immediately (frame 1) (2). This means that how quickly each character can shield out of dash depends on how long it takes their initial dash to transition into a run. Luckily, Ultimate Frame Data has an entire tab on the "stats" page with the data for each character. Go to "stats", go to the table "dash and run speed" and there under the header "dash frames" is the data for each character. For example Sheik and Corrin have the best dash frames with only 7 frames, meaning they can shield out of dash on frame 8. I hope this helps, I'm not sure hoe much exactly it saves but probably around a frame or 10 (Side note, or bonus if you will. One more error in the video. He waited for the shield animation to appear to determine first frame of shield, but the shield bubble appears on the second frame. The first frame does block though, it just doesn't have the animation. A bit confusing but useful to know if you ever lab something)
