SSB4 Techniques - Pivot Landing [TURN ON SUBTITLES]
4A bit of a shorter video, but this description should make up for it lol
I used Sheik for this because she has a pretty good pivot landing.
Using subtitles instead of weird Movie Maker text is actually pretty great: you don't have to republish a video to make changes, and it works on mobile unlike annotations. I'm planning on using it more often.
So, explanation time. I rediscovered this technique but it existed since Brawl times (maybe even Melee?):
"Pivot Landing"/"Craq Walking"- 'Drifting' backwards then continuing to hold backwards upon landing so that you turn around to get a slight boost in the direction you were going. Alternatively, drifting forwards then upon landing lightly turning around and then holding back in the direction you originally jumped to get a slight boost.

It might be helpful for catching the opponent off with fades, and having a sliding down smash is pretty helpful. It can be used after autocancelled aerials or empty shorthops (not shown in the video, but this should be very helpful since you can empty shorthop towards people into a sliding down smash), so even though it might not be super useful, it's not unrealistic to use it during a match.
