Spam Sprays

( guide by Zeldocto )
Spam sprays are a technique that the game doesn’t tell you about, and comes wildly in handy in many different situations.

The difference between Analog and Digital

On the Gamecube controller, there are two types of inputs on the triggers, analog and digital.

Digital Spam Sprays

Digital Spam Sprays come out in a cylindrical cone straight out in front of you. They are done by pressing R then A 1 frame after, with up to 2 frames of spray allowed.

Analog Spam Sprays

Analog Spam sprays come out at a slightly downturned angle and wider compared to digital spam sprays. They are done by spraying before pressing R then A at least 3 frames after.

You can see the difference in spread of water particles between the gifs above. Each spam spray has its uses, a good example being in Shadow Mario Insta-Kills where a digital spam spray makes it easier.

Frame-Perfect Spam Spray

Frame-Perfect Spam Sprays come out in a cylindrical cone straight out in front of you, similar to Digital Spam Sprays, but the angle is based on whatever FLUDD is doing at that moment. So this can be angled downwards if you just did an analog spam spray, or crooked if FLUDD is in a tilted animation.
