!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I haven't played since pre-Epic but I also never got into wave dashing, even at the GC level. I rarely found my teammates using it or being bested because of it. Viable but overrated is where I landed on it.
Regarding the random air flips, I did find using that technique useful against opponents who excel at reading ball movement. I rarely needed it in team games, but sometimes in solo an odd hit that goes (relatively) in the direction I wanted is just enough to confuse them. Using it everytime though is just stunting.
