Attack cancel RAR's are more viable than the two other methods of RARing in most situations because you can put out the BAir sooner and in a closer distance.. thus aiding combos a TON. As a Falcon player, attack cancel RAR's are a godsend and I've been using them since launch.
Great video! I clicked because it was short and I want to see what other smashers are up to, and I came away pleasantly surprised! I'm gonna have to try that diagonal trick (attack cancelling isn't a magical panacea because you can't do an empty hop reversed).
Yw! And yes, to be technical it’s a RAR without running, cuz you still perform it out of initial dash but it can be done as early as frame 1 of the dash
You kinda got it mixed up here. What you described as an attack cancel is actually an instant rar and what you described as an instant rar is just a normal rar but done instantly. An attack cancel is done by inputting an attack and during the first 2 frames of the animation you cancel it by pressing jump and then input the direction of the aerial. It‘s almost identical in input to the instant rar (aka what you described as attack canceling) but an instant rar is performed during an initial dash where attacks can‘t come out so you‘re also not canceling an attack. It‘s a sinilar input but works by abusing mechanics different from an attack cancel, hence the different name. IIRC My Smash Corner got it right in his video
There's still a better method if you want to input rising RAR : 1. input turnaround 2. Jump + attack like a rising nair 3. Joystick in the attack direction directly after 2.
Where my stick jump boys at. Lmao it took me like 2 weeks to get the motion down for executing rar aerials but it’s really no more difficult than b reversing. It’s a matter of timing, really.
Idk if it would come from this channel, but I need a video explaining why I always accidentally do nairs instead of fairs when I short hop attack. I wish they kept the 45° rule.
That’s actually a good idea for a video haha. It happens cuz when you buffer an aerial, the game only reads the left stick direction to determine what aerial you choose. Make sure you still watch the video about this if I make it! 😅😅
Hey, Cosmos, I just wanted to let you know I appreciate how you reply to pretty much everyone. I was and am a huge fan of your Corrin in Smash 4, and your Inkling blows my mind. I actually have a question about Inkling, if you have the time. When you up-throw, you seem to be able to perfectly time and reach them with a n-air on the way up, and almost always hit them behind so you can b-air them on the way down. What is your method for doing this so consistently? Often times they are able to get out of my up-throw before the first n-air or up-air connects. Does if they are sent behind you depend on their DI? Thank you! You're my hero, man.
Game5 Smash My bad! You're still a hero, in my book. This guide has already been IMMENSELY helpful due to so much of Inkling's game revolving around her back air in neutral.
One issue I have is the aerial drift. I get the back-aerial, but bost of the times I don't go quite as far forward, or even worse, I stay mostly in place, or even worse still, I go slightly backwards. What can I do?
honestly being able to do a consistent attack cancel back air kinda makes RAR pointless. The only real application i can see is that it adds another mix up option out of a full run so your sliding F tilts don't get predictable
Dang. I use tap jump so these methods don't work for me much. I can't nail the timing between a full and short hop with buttons but do it consistently with tap jump, which is why i've played that way since Brawl. I play ZSS so I need to RAR Bair often and i'm having a lot of trouble doing nair into rar bair in particular
If you do the other method, it shouldn’t be possible for it to give you any less momentum, cuz the diagonal input doesn’t affect your momentum and you can’t adjust your movement during jumpsquat either way
sticks are so inconsistent for making precise and quick movements, i hate it. I even dislike arcade sticks for that same matter, never got used to them, and i dont like to mash controllers so they do what i need.
So what you're saying here is, I gotta extract my opponent's techniques with this RAR thing? I'll do it in a _zip._

Haha just hold it diagonally. What a trick. Thanks dude. I was getting mildly annoyed sometimes missing attack cancelled moves.
Yw! And remember the diagonal method still requires you to jump before holding forward
Did this for 40 days fine, then it started asking me to buy full version and now I can't win online :(

thanks, the diagonal trick worked, before i'd somehow do a forward air behind me when trying to do it
this eliminated the one instance i ever thought id need attack cancelling, thank god
techs dead to me now LOL
Haha thanks it is to me too
Attack cancelling/dash attack cancelling is stupidly broken on Rosaluma
McBanana This method is much better than attack cancelling from my experience with them because of the full hop.
With Palutena O can ise instant reverse aerials to do a forward momentum turn-aroumd nair which cam help in nair loops and other things
@@Bash70 wait how did you fix the upair problem
Your content is insanely helpful, all of your videos improve my gameplay significantly
So glad, I aim to teach players in a way that helps them understand the tech instead of just throwing out inputs
I've been practicing this for a while but I'm still getting double pivot forward airs..
Is it just me, or is this still extremely difficult despite knowing what to do?
Thanks bro I needed that
Yes
Dude I been playing for a year and still can't do shit.
@@joelkoodarkking me too practice
Fr, Im a roy main, and its really hard for me to rar, even tho thats a critical manuver in his edge guard game
Im so glad that it wasnt just me struggling with the run up back air.
just tried to consistently do down tilt into back air with fox for hours in training mode with no luck until finding this video now i can do it every time
Yup for dtilt bair sometimes you won’t even run, just hold up and back during dtilt lag and time the bair
Game5 Smash I’ve been trying to do that input for so long imma test it out today
that joke clip was beautiful
Your preferred method that delays your forward momentum might lose out on combo potential
I was doing the second metod all the time lol. Even for non initial dash rar
Duuuude the holding diagonally has made my rar bairs so much more consistent thankyou
This is literally the best explanation on this topic. Great video.
How have I just now found this channel? This is the exact stuff I need

dude I need help, when I try to instant bair out of d throw, I sometimes get a reverse knee. What am I doing wrong :(((
Holding up at an angle fixed my problem where I’d input correctly but my character would do the bair in the opposite direction thank you
Great video! I clicked because it was short and I want to see what other smashers are up to, and I came away pleasantly surprised! I'm gonna have to try that diagonal trick (attack cancelling isn't a magical panacea because you can't do an empty hop reversed).

Works like a charm! Thank you, kind sir!
So the second technique is an instant RAR without dashing? I was wondering how to do it, thanks a lot !

You right. Thanks!
I've been using attack canceling but I didnt know about other ways of doing Rar until now. Now I can Rar at any point in my dash lol
love this channel
Tysm!
I find it easy because my jump is L and I use my c stick to do my back air. Also I use a Power A Gamecube Controller.
Thank you This was easy to understand and very helpful!
RAR xd
IMPORTANT PSA: THE ATTACK CANCEL RAR is actually EXTREMELY EASY and NOT AWKWARD with JUMP ON TRIGGER
*he then killed himself*
still having trouble getting it

This was really helpful. Thank you!
I, an Inkling main, shall observe
Yeah that was my question. Not how to Rar out of a jump, but more like an instant backair after a downthrow or dash attack in DKs case. 😅

Np, thanks a bunch and I’m glad it helped!
I find it easier to attack cancel by inputting a backwards ftilt, then right after holding forward and jump. maybe just me tho.
Oh... so that's how i do down throw bair with ganon, gotta press every goddamn button at the same time
This video saved my life
Even after this...I still can't do it
One issue I have is the aerial drift. I get the back-aerial, but bost of the times I don't go quite as far forward, or even worse, I stay mostly in place, or even worse still, I go slightly backwards. What can I do?

I don't get the diagonal part but this really helps
Didn’t know this thanks this should help me with Roy jab to back air
holy shit, that’s really useful. thanks dude!
Yw!
I can do it on right side but when I try on the left I get a backwards forward aerial
I didn’t know people had trouble doing rar in the game, I never had a problem with it
The c stick method isn’t working for me (pro controller), any tips?
I do a rar effectively but i always get a reverse fair instead of a bair what is my mistake then?
You’re pressing attack before you press forward
Dang. I use tap jump so these methods don't work for me much. I can't nail the timing between a full and short hop with buttons but do it consistently with tap jump, which is why i've played that way since Brawl.

Grim Termina same i'm ive been seeing mars get so many early kills with it i've been trying to learn
can you do it with a short hop attack ? like pressing X and A together ?
Thanks bro!
Does the sedcond method always result in a short hops? I know that the attack cancelling method does.
It doesn’t, so you can use it more freely and you aren’t forced to input an aerial either
0:14 had me dead
I don't normally sub to a channel after watching just one video, however...
personally I do all my rars with both of the sicks.
Oh so thats what this tactic is called
I can do this very consistently
Attack cancelling gives you maximum momentum though
If you do the other method, it shouldn’t be possible for it to give you any less momentum, cuz the diagonal input doesn’t affect your momentum and you can’t adjust your movement during jumpsquat either way
I tried doing this with the shoulder button and c stick and it’s awful. Y and a seem like the way to go
+ jump
Whats a good way to practice teching?
I wish there were a million person like you
I get the Rar the wrong side what i am doing wrong ?
Thx for the video
So I keep wiffing the bair as Ike even when I get the RAR - Any input? Am I just doing the aerial too slow???
U have to space it
lmao why call it reverse aerial rush and give it an abbreviation to make it sound like some crazy tech its just a turn-around back air
Because RAR keeps your forward momentum
Technically you could moonwalk bair in Melee to emulate RAR
I’m fine with it I just carnt do it out of a throw
Does this still work with ken and ryu?
Is this with attack canc?
Fuck this explains so much thank you
rar literally isnt hard its just doing it as soon as you finish the initial dash it gets confusing, like roys jair (jab to bair)
Attack canceling is very inconsistent tbh to perform a rar. This method will help a lot of people out ty.
Agreed
ok i m still failing.
I rather do Attack Canceling.
What about Ryu and Ken?
Not sure, haven’t done any testing for them. I believe they can still do a normal rar though
Captain Thicc
Does this work for auto turn fgc characters like ryu and ken?
Yes
sticks are so inconsistent for making precise and quick movements, i hate it. I even dislike arcade sticks for that same matter, never got used to them, and i dont like to mash controllers so they do what i need.
