Yo. Before I start, let me state my previous name, which was Insemination_17, for those who know me.

Alright. My name is Paul and I go to FIU. If you want to play some brawl, you can come down. We play mondays-fridays (most of the time) in the South Campus Graham Center (1st or 2nd floor with TV), since someone has a modded Wii with the Japanese game.

I've played 4-5 times so far because, as you can imagine, the line is HELLA-long just to be able to play. Anyways, there was this one match I had, which was a one-on-one against the person who owns the modded Wii. I was Link and he was Falco. We played on a stage that he had created (he made it look like FD, but with some sort of blocks), which was pretty cool. I dont have a Wii and I haven't played much so I can't answer most of your technical questions (if you have any), but here is one thing I did notice, and shocked the hell out of me (and all of the people who were watching). In the middle of the fight, I randomly d-tilted, and he was spiked at a downward diagonal angle (I guess it's because of the spot I hit him in). I apologize if this has already been mentioned...

Here's the trick:

You have to connect the d-tilt at the tip of the blade, NOT the center like in melee. The enemy will then be spiked at a diagonal angle (the speed depends upon his/her percentage).

Z0MG!!! TIPPER = H4X

Lol, just kidding... :P Anyway, does his down tilt come out faster now? I found it difficult to time it right in Melee to spike people...

I believe it does, but I'll confirm that once I play again tomorrow (hopefully). It should be like Young Link's in Melee. When I did it, it was right after a bounce Falco had made after hitting the ground. It surprised me because he wasn't even close to the edge, just that since the angle wasn't perfectly diagonal (around 25 degrees from the horizontal), he did not rebound from the ground, but instead missed it and was spiked.
