Ramlethal rekka dash cancel special cancel alternate input method
The most intuitive way to try to rekka cancel is to hit the dash macro immediately after you rekka and try to time your special with the start up of the dash. The timing for that is very difficult though and most of the time you'll only get a dash unless you practice it a ton.
My method is to delay your dash input until it is no longer a buffered dash and input it with the special you intend to cancel into. The input is very similar to kara canceling except instead of canceling the start up of a normal, you are canceling the start up of the dash. There is a trade off where you're no longer guaranteeing that you are dash canceling at the earliest possible time, but the overall timing to actually have a special come out is much easier.
For this particular video, the inputs are as follows
214P [(delay) 2146dash~P] x however many times you wanna do it
If you are still only getting a dash when using my method, there are three possible causes:
1. You aren't waiting long enough before inputting your dash and special.
2. You are hitting the button for the special too late after your dash input.
3. You didn't input the special correctly.
While practicing, I recommend intentionally delaying extra long so that you can make sure it's not reason 1. Once you're sure you can avoid reasons 2 and 3 consistently, start speeding your timing up until it stops working so you can learn the fastest possible timing.
This method is very similar to inputting a kara back megafist with Potemkin so if you know how to do that, you'll have an easier time learning this method.
