No Joystick Allowed Challenge

The No Joystick Allowed Challenge is a challenge in which the joystick on the controller is used as little as possible or not at all. Movement typically involves the following:

• a punch followed by a Single Jump, which provides forward movement
• a backflip, which provides backward movement
• a punch followed by a Single Jump to move off a ledge, followed by a ledge grab, which provides a means of facing perpendicular to the ledge
• a backflip whose landing lag falls off a ledge, followed by a dive back onto the floor, which provides a way of changing Mario's angle since he'll orient his angle along the floor's slope
• sliding down slopes, which provides a way of changing Mario's angle
• enemy knockback, which provides a way of changing Mario's angle
• chuckya throws, which provides a way of changing Mario's angle
• twirling with strategic A held frames to slow the descent, which provides a way of changing Mario's angle
• repeated pole grabs, which provides a way of changing Mario's angle
