New possible tech(?)

[Ylissova]

I found a possible technique that if you spam ZL you go extremely fast. The only downside is that you don't get ink. You can also do it in the air for fun (is just for show)

Lol @ "tech"

 

[aqualgnd]

Don't know enough about the game to determine whether it's effective or not, but from what I've played it seems to work pretty well.

 

[BoTalksGames]

I was doing this just because it looked funny, but yeah, you go faster. Could definitely see this being a big part of competitive (covering ground quicky, anyway)

 

[Mononut]

Can confirm that it works. I do agree that it isn't particularly a "tech", but it does work and is something to consider for future play.

This should be call Squidding.

How about Squiddancing?

 

[dustmyte]

Squidaddle!

SOMEONE ALREADY DUBBED THIS, IT'S CALLED SQUIDTECHING.

Splashdashing is way more funny and non-competitive sounding.

Doesn't really sound like an AT to me. Useful maybe but it definitely does not requiring the timing or maneuvering to be considered a tech, just another movement option.

 

[AuraBreak]

Mad that this doesn't fill up your ink though. Nice for moving quickly!

Tbh this just makes you way easier to hit.

Well, more visible, but if they already know you're there it could be good for escaping before getting boxed in.

and it begins. . .so you go up and down? like a wave. and its fast. like a dash. and you press a shoulder button. . .

Welp, it's like fire hopping in Mario Kart 8 all over again (If you don't what I'm talking about, here.) I can see this used in competitive a lot unless there will be a patch for that.

 

[ndayadn]

we could call it spamming ZL.

Tech stands for technique so it is a type of tech however I wouldn't call it an AT.

True, it does, but still I wouldn't even really call this a technique. A technique is treated as so because of its execution, effort vs reward.

This is literally just spam ZL and you go kind of faster. That's just spamming ZL, not a technique. In a fighter you don't tell someone "great technique!" for button mashing, you encourage to learn actual techniques.
