In this video, I define and go in depth about auto-cancels, and I tell the timings of them for every one of doc's aerials
So... You're probably wondering, "Why is this important?"
Auto-cancelling is a key fundamental and is important in his neutral, typically in conjunction with short hop Back Aerials to space. Most people use this move in the neutral because:
1. The decently sized hitbox
2. The quick startup
3. The move has a very practical auto-cancel window (Since it can be immediately fast-falled in a short hop)
4. It's absurd damage and knockback which makes opponents sure to respect it
5. You can RAR (Reverse Aerial Rush) effectively. If you don't know what a RAR is, it's when you turn around while running, hold forward again while pressing jump promptly, then input a back air (I recommend fast-falling right after), effectively transferring momentum to the air. Click here for an example of RAR in 1/4 speed (This is with brawl Mario because I don't have Smash 4 with me at the moment. Brawl and Smash 4 RAR-ing are the exact same, so this is still accurate).
6. When the opponent does respect it (usually by the means of shielding), you can fast-fall multiple Back Airs as shield pressure due to having enough shieldstun. This will force the opponent to react which you are able to punish or remember that reaction to get an idea of how they act when pressured in general.
