How does Yardis suggest players should approach where to look while dodging?

Yardis advises that where you look during dodging is a matter of personal preference. He personally looks for empty spaces to move into and anticipates where to dodge next. Over time, players should rely on muscle memory rather than focusing on their character's hitbox.

Why does Yardis consider the Portal Gun to be better than the Slimy Saddle for dodging?

The Portal Gun is faster than the Slimy Saddle, offering a fall speed of up to 102 miles per hour. It also doesn't carry the risk of the Slimy Saddle's bounce when there is insufficient downward momentum.
