Thanks for the advice. For some reason on dpad I keep air strafing slightly right. Maybe imputing the VS faster could fix it as I love using dpad.

I’ve gotten into speed running and have been practicing the skips but the one im most inconsistent on is the VS skip in green path. I played through the game solely on d pad but can only get the skip to work on sticks. Im willing to try KBM for easy redirection taps but im not sure if it’s worth learning the game on it. Just looking for tips or thoughts (switch to sticks or KBM or stay on dpad).
