Wiggling the analogue stick between cardinal directions lets you exit tumble without any other action. This can be used to leave tumble without shooting a laser as with Laser out-of-tumble, but if you are hit again, you will probably input a random DI.
“ It’s [lasering out of tumble] not better anymore. Before 1.0 cardinals were standardized on controllers, wigging [sic] out of tumble used to be very hard/inconsistent, so laser was better because it always worked. But now that wiggling out of tumble is consistent, it’s usually preferred over the laser. ”
