You want to maintain distance while firing.

Retreating double laser

Prerequisites: Double laser

Tags: laser

A retreating double laser allows you to build damage while moving away from your opponent. Input-wise, it is essentially a combination of Retreating laser and Double laser.

This technique is more effective against slower and taller characters, who can be hit with both lasers. Against characters like Marth and Sheik whose dash animations duck the first laser, it is mostly a waste of time. You give up stage control every time you retreat, so be careful.

Practice tips

  • Try to go as far as possible with each shorthop back.
  • As with normal double lasers, you must not fastfall.
