To be fair, I'd rather hold a Jump for a few seconds than risk flinging myself the wrong way with with Elusive.

HOWEVER, I also realize this is an opinion born out of experience(lack of it on my part) and possibly controller(I use one as opposed to keyboard). So I also understand this is no way a hard rule.
