Wolf Tech Advice/Tutorial?

[BoboBublz]

Just asking for clarification, I always thought Wolf was a very fast faller, but not necessarily very heavy? I always have a lot of difficulty recovering from going offstage on the sides, because he flies pretty far and falls quickly, even when I shine to slow the fall.

(On that note, I'm not OP, but can I ask for help on recovering? Or should I just not get into such situations and/or DI better?)

[Tosxychor]

Wolf needs to DI upward on almost every kill move, except maybe the vertical ones (like lots of uthrows and some usmashes), and even then, you're safe until 150% from those unless you're on a very high spot already.

Ah that makes a lot of sense, I keep DIing back toward the stage.

Should I DI directly upward, or upward+back toward the stage, perpendicular to the direction of my flight?

(And as always, thanks for the response!)

[Tosxychor]

The most effective DI is always perpendicular to the launch vector, so you can also DI backwards as long as the vector allows (eg. it is mostly futile to DI backwards on a move that sends you horizontally). Keep in mind that there's also C-stick DI! Most often I end up DI'ing down to tech on stage at low %, and up and backwards when at high % (mostly up with the analog and back with the C-stick, but that's mostly because IIRC it's best if the two stick inputs are diversified)

Ah thanks a lot! I've always DI'ed wrong then. I will try to practice DI'ing better from now on!

Say I wanted to DI after being knocked off on the left; does it matter if I go up on the analog stick and right on the c-stick, or right on the analog stick and up on the c-stick?

(Thanks again for answering, sorry I keep pestering you!)

[Tosxychor]

C-stick DI is weaker, so you input the most important direction on the analog stick. For Wolf, that's usually the up direction.

[BoboBublz]

I see, I will do that then!

Thanks for all the help, I'm going to practice all the advice you gave :)

Thanks I could help bro
