=====Acceleration Trick=====
**Used For:**\\
  * Weapon Socom 01

**Tutorial Video:**\\

  * Unequipping and re-equipping a weapon shortly before moving gives you a 1 frame boost.

=====Input Buffer=====
**Used For:**\\
  * Sneaking No Weapon 03
  * Sneaking No Weapon 05
  * Sneaking No Weapon 08

**Tutorial Video:**\\

  * Generally, input buffering is used to get cleaner lines, however it can mess with a guard's vision. Tap R2 or L2 repeatedly.

=====Kick Cancel=====
**Used For:**\\
  * Sneaking No Weapon 04
  * Special 1 Min. Battle VS. Target No Weapon

**Tutorial Video:**\\

  * Tapping X shortly after Snake performs a kick will cancel it the full animation of it.

=====Lean=====
**Used For:**\\
  * Any level where the goal appears before Snake gets there.

**Tutorial Video:** \\

  * Leaning into the goal is 7 frames faster than running into it with no weapon. Turn 90 degrees, go into first person view, and tap either R1 or L1 to lean.
  * FPV Leaning allows you to enter goals earlier than if you ran into it as normal, [[https://youtu.be/KMVuCaeKEaw|video discussion here]]
  * You can save up to 7 'ticks' of the in game timer
  * How much it saves depends on the length of a tick in a given stage, the maximum so far is 0.25.

**Setup:**
  
  -Run towards the goal
  -Turn when you are ~1 meter away, so you are parallel to the goal
  -Press and hold triangle
  -Immediately after the triangle input (but not at the same time) lean to the left or right with L1 or R1
  -Be careful, as equipping/unequipping an item/weapon can mess with this
=====Throw-Cancel=====
**Used For:**\\
  * Sneaking No Weapon 15
  * Special NG Selection 02

**Tutorial Video:**\\

  * Equipping an item or weapon can cancel the animation of throwing a guard.
