every fox is about to come out of quarantine with 16 galint ledgedashes

can we talk about the production quality tho? its impressive how well hax writes scripts

Hax do be lecturing people about this in public restrooms

i cant believe that hax saved melee again

This feeds a deep hunger for learning intricate things about melee. The year really is 2020

As Aziz was explaining how it's easier to ledgedash on BF than FD, I could literally feel my ledgedash muscle memory between the two stages, and realized I've been compensating with an appropriate stick angle all this time without consciously choosing to do so. Fucking godlike video.

But before we can discuss optimal ECB selection, we need to talk about parallel universes

18 minute video on ledgedashing, papa bless

“Hey Hax$, what are you going to do during the pandemic?” His gaze rises from the CRT into the enigmatic void of this thoughts and understanding of decades of complex mechanics. He turns his head slightly to acknowledge your presence and declares, “Something that needs to be done.”

Reminds me of that video M2K talks about ledgedashing. He mentioned that its often easier to ledge dash after regrabing ledge first, but didnt explain why. That ECB stuff is nuts. I remember someone made. Video recently about Cpt falcon various colors having different ECB values

I remember getting this lecture in person lmao.

It's insane, even after almost 20 years, that we're still finding more.

This is very good content

I don't even play melee.. but I love hearing a nerd talk thoroughly about his investigations

I wish anyone and everyone who thinks melee is a "joke" of a fighting game would watch videos like this to see how hard melee players work and optimize their game, and see how intricate it really is

This video is sick!

man where's your running playlist? i remember listening to it on a car ride, it had sonic adventure 2 battle tracks on there, so sick

Hey just a heads up you’ll probably want to EQ your vocal audio to lower the high end frequencies, since they’re pretty noticeable. In particular, your “s” and “t” sounds are really loud. Great video otherwise keep up the good work!

The pacing in this is better than previous vids, thanks for apparently taking feedback on that. Also just a side note: if you use back to drop from ledge for ledgedashes with Fox and are trying to get your best ECB with double jump to ledge, on FD if you use a full back input you'll get a Doraki walljump and probably die.

No matter what happens to you and your ability to play in tournament these contruibutions and videos will always be greatly appreciated. So focus on this kind of contact and just forget Leffen even exists.

this is what he does during the lockdown

extremely descriptive and precise with what your talking about i love it! keep it up

This is an unbelievably well-made video. Clear, consise, complete. Keep it up Hax!

I love how Melee competition is so similar to speedrunning in its mindset. The idea of using this in a 1v1 is actually nuts, we tend to forget it as we are almost used to that kind of dedication and incredible level from the players but man that's incredible. Great content, I'm blown away by the quality of your content.

I love ur content as always Also the production value got better! Damn

This was an amazingly well put together video

the quality of this video is insane. melee is so sick.

I gotta give this video credit. I could not ledgedash with Fox whatsoever-- but after watching this video, and a week or so of practice, I’ve been utilizing GALINT consistently in real matches and it feels so good.

Great video and explanation Hax!

Highly informative - beautiful graphics!

I've watched you SD from the ledge too much to take this video seriously. (JK thank you so much!!)

What a great video, thank you so much Hax!

This was fantastic!

Thank you so much for this Hax. Armed with this knowledge, I can go 0-2 in bracket with higher GALINT than I ever imagined. In all seriousness the video drastically helped improve my ledgedash consistency and fundamental understanding, and I'm very grateful for that

This man does not miss

Hax$ you the gosh darn man and im looking forward to the day when you are best in the world

Incredible content

We don't deserve you man, thank you so much. Amazing video.

i randomly came across this video and i was like, wow. this guy delivers his content in an extremely concise and easy to understand manner. then i looked at the uploader and i was like, "ohhhhhh, no wonder"

Thanks Hax!

yo hax what was the peach ledge thing that you banned a specific coordinate for in the b0xx doc?

Our prophet changing Melee. One tech at a time

I love Hax's voice. I like to rewatch these videos whenever im stressed

Not even 8 minutes in and I'm already consistently ledgedashing, how the hell kind sir

Already subbed. Thank you for the information.

Sick vid.

Hax thank you for making this, really informative stuff and I'd hope to see more of it. But my brain is far to small and smooth for this shit

You're a legend my guy

11:40 hax calls fox box

i always felt like I'd SD more when wavedashing to ledge and immediately ledgedashing versus refreshing invincibility before ledgedashing. looks like it was ECBs. thank you hax$

Please please please continue with this style of content, you're like Magic Scrumpy but not a tool

This changes a lot

love you father

Thank you so much, 20XX Fox God

did you look into using cstick back to drop from the ledge? it seems like you can get full forward jump trajectory, would that be better? i use claw to do this, gets very deep nairs onto the stage from ledge with falcon.

Damn I didn’t consider even that tilting down didn’t produce and ff from ledge whereas my full ass smash down is always gonna produce a ff from ledge. Never wanted to learn the away from ledge method. Now I understand much more about my weak ass ledgedashes. Thank you, I’ve got some practicing to do

second best infomercial after shamwow

So its good I learned to ledge dash/practice on yoshis nice

thanks for the vid. Now I can win all the tournaments.

You're a god hax

I personally will drop a lot of times with the c-stick, which is a slow fall. That way im already holding in towards stage for my ledgedash. This is less effective with other characters, but I play Ganon so it works well for me.

I cannot believe that people go this deep into this game

This is quality content. Please do more, Hax Fucking Money.

wat a legend

Powerful voice

Who will be the first fox to bust out the 16 GALINT ledgedash in tourney?

This game is fucking insane and I love it

Please make more!!!!

the year is 20xx, mastering melee is harder than a quantum physics degree

If I could like this twice I would

Forbidden knowledge

15:37 omg this part made me lol fr.

2/10, didn't talk about Parallel Universes JK, incredibly well-done video! Keep it up

There will be a time where you can study melee in a e-port university. And this will be relevant course material.

20XX haha gotem

Hey hax ur handsome

I can never get enough in-depth melee mechanic analysis. I can only hope that Hax$ will replace Kadano

The only thing that changed is that now, I know exactly why I die. Great content nontheless :^)

BIG BRAIN

inc

My right ledge favoring brain got confused by the stick graphs for a second. And then I was like ohhhh it's the left ledge loll

If I'm going to spend this much energy analyzing something I better get a diploma afterwards.

I would be interested in an aerial interrupt video :D (falcon main)

Hax, did you try the different Captain Falcon skins to test whether the modified ECB of each skin affects ledgedash?

Welcome to Melee University

What about using C-stick back/C-stick down to fall from ledge? You dont fast fall or drift back at all from it.

Can Falco use a ledge fall DJ to change his ECB? And if fox presses away immediate DJ FF back to ledge to refresh, can he preserve ECB that way too?

How would I enable the unclepunch frame viewer? Is it available on 20xx iso?

mmm indeed

Hax has a voice for radio.

Lots of love (and a lot of time for such a quick turnaround) went into this one. Enjoy!

This is why Melee won't die. The players are too dedicated.

Green falcon has a larger ECB than neutral falcon. Does this affect anything ledge dashing??? (Please I play green falcon)

Hax, what angle is the white line at 7:45 ?

This game's skill ceiling is ridiculously high.

As I mention in my other comment, I see the first fast fallable frame as being frame 2 of fall (as Falco). If I fast fall on the 3rd frame, I get 5 total frames of fall, whereas if I fast fall on the 2nd, I get 4 total frames. Am I doing something wrong? Maybe I'm misunderstanding what it means to do an input on a frame with frame advance, though. If I say, "I press down on frame 2," to me, that means, "Paused on the 2nd frame of fall, I press down, and advance the frame." Does that mean the input occurs on the third frame?

Will this be on the test?

You mention that a fast fall can be buffered 3 frames in advance, but I think I might not understand. I'm using the frame advance in uncle punch right now, and it looks to me like (using Falco) I can fast fall on the second frame of fall, and get 4 frames of fall before catch (compared to 10 not fast falling). Doing it on the 3rd frame of fall results in 5 frames of fall. And if I do it on the first frame of fall, it does not fast fall. So it doesn't seem to me like it can be buffered. EDIT: I realize my misunderstanding. Buffering doesn't mean "only doing the input in previous frames," but rather, "ALSO doing the input in previous frames." If I start holding down in the first frame of fall, or even 2 frames before that while still on the stage, but then keep holding it through the second, it still works.

could you make a video on No Impact Lands?

Does up b stall reset ecb?
