Intro
Projectile spam feels overwhelming when you challenge from bad ranges. Structured movement and shield timing convert spam into predictable patterns.
Practical Examples
- Dash in small bursts between projectiles instead of full commits.
- Short-hop over low projectiles only when spacing allows safe landing.
- Take center after each successful avoid instead of swinging instantly.
Common Mistakes
- Jumping from full screen on autopilot.
- Shielding forever without claiming space.
- Swinging through projectile hitboxes without setup.
Focus First
Identify one projectile rhythm you can consistently bypass, then build your punish route from that entry.
In-Match Adjustments
- If spam speed increases, slow your approach and block-select.
- If zoner runs away, walk forward and trap corner exits.
- If hit repeatedly, reset and adjust burst range.
Quick Tips
- Most spam has spacing weaknesses.
- Small space gains add up quickly.
- Do not rush the punish before position is won.
