Character Specific Strategies... (About Kirby Guide)

[nitro-blazer]

Although i've had subpar Guide/FAQ writing expirience, i do know general Guide format, and can write down technical stuff (Damage percents, Names, How many times it hits, etc) and memorize Trivial information with ease. Although, i will be needing alot of other information, as i have few High-level smashers that are easy to access.

I already have a Terms list, albeit it may not be the most complete it contains everything that should apply to Kirby, and a movelist will be easy enough to fill out.

What i am mainly looking for is Character matchup advice. This is my weakest area, as the only "good" competition in my neighbourhood plays Roy. Any advice for specific moves, small chains, or geeneral recovery or edgegaurd tactics would be gladly accepted as well. You will recieve Credit in full, both after the Information you gave me, and in the end, during the "Credits" Section.

I thank you in advance for you help.

I have some stats in my attempt at a kirby guide (show threads from last 100 days and you'll find it). Go ahead and use those if you want. I haven't the time to finish it, and don't intend to.

[nitro-blazer]

Ok, but, i just want you to know if i use them, i'll be changing the move names (IE from Rocket throw to Ninja Drop), and Rearranging the order, but you will recieve full credit...

Anyone have any Character specific strategies? Unfortunately, those are a large part, and i can't document them very well...

I'll try to contribute a bit when I have more time.

I find that I learn new things best when I write about what I do now... so I'm looking forward to it.

ONe more thing, I've noticed a few Kirby guides have failed because the original writesr did not want to finish them. I'm saying it right now, i will get this guide finished, and hopefully updated often.

That being said, one must remember that i still have school homework, and a part-time job, so don't get mad if i'm not online for one day...

A few things i plan to include, Aerial Hammer techniques (SHAH, RAH, the Anti-edgegaurd), general move descriptions, a brief mention of why suicides suck, Character Matcups, Movelist, Advanced techniques, Pro's and Cons, Why Kirby Rocks, etc...

[$PITE]

Aerial hammer freaking owns. If you cancel your jump with a reverse aerial hammer, you can rack up good damage and possibly lead into an uptilt. It also looks cool as hell. Probably my favourite move.

Oh, and go ahead an change the names - I was intending to do so anyway.

Any timeframe as to when this gets done?

[Omnigamer]

Gah, time still owns me thoroughly. But if you need something to get you started, check out the RiTT forums. I posted my feelings and maybe a few strats for char matchups over there. You can take them as needed.

To $PITE

Well, i'm thinking about posting it as soon as i get everything sans the character matchups up, and i'll be filling in character matchups as i get/create them. Right now, however, i'm re-formatting the Techniques list from Link to Kirby and adding some terms. Expect in in around a week or 9 days. Thanksgiving by the latest.

To Omni: I'll check those out. I'm hopefully contacting someone who plays a wider range of characters so i can get some of my own opinions ad ideas up. Don't worry if your schedule is busy, i know how that feels. However, don't expect greatly, uber specific matchup descriptions.


Also, to anyone whom it may concern: Remember, everyone plays the characters diferently, so i may just put things to avoid, and general counters/ moves that work with there weight.
