PK thunder

[Tyr_03]

Has anyone done testing on PK thunder's use as an edgeguarding move? Specifically can Ness still tail whip people, making them lose vertical momentum? It's been too hard for me to tell if it's been doing this or not and I haven't had the time to properly test it. Check out Simna's instructional melee Ness video on youtube if you don't know what I'm talking about.

I don't know if it can. but i know lucas' own can.

[Ademisk]

Its not even nearly as useful as Melee. Can it be done, of course. But actually killing someone with it is...nigh impossible with Ness.

[Ademisk]

Omg, PSI Magnt can heal from tailwhips. Its TOOOO good.

[NESSBOUNDER]

How does that work? You can't use PSI magnet while your own PK thunder is out...do you mean team ditto matches?

[Ademisk]

Simna and I were doing Ness Dittos.

Thats cool to mess around with as friends, but when in a tourny are you gonna get a NESS ditto thats willing to tail whip you back to good %age?

[Ademisk]

You're not. You're supposed to absorbs other people's PKT. And I didn't say it was good...well, I did, but I meant that it's hilarious and awesome.

[Nintenbro]

oic
If you magnet it, will it cancel the thunder completely or will it keep on going?

[Ademisk]

Keep on going. That's the cool part.

[Nintenbro]

Ohh. So does that leave room for magnetizing multiple hits? If so, thats tite.

[Ademisk]

Yes, in fact, one tailwhip can be absorbed multiple times.

[Nintenbro]

WOAH! Thats cool then.
The only thing I dont like about PKT is the fact that it sends the enemy from where the PKT came from.

[Ademisk]

There's nothing wrong with that. PK Thunder isn't used to kill, it's used for setups, mindgames, and the almighty PKT2

[Nintenbro]

True, true. I can only deal with the reverse knockback while juggling. I love the almight PKT2 lol.

[Mushy]

So what's wrong with PKT as an edgeguard now?
anyway, it can kill of the top consistently!
and ness's spike is faster. (so edgeguarding is a little easier.)
