    Down smash or side B?

    So, first of all, I don't think there's really a correct catch all option between downsmash and side b, especially against spacies. There are going to be situations where side b will be better like when they will be out of hitstun before they hit the ground, or are farther away from you where...

    Wolf Off Stage Offensive/Recovery Options

    Wolf bair is an exceptionally good tool for edgeguarding and just generally hitting people further offstage. This is because Wolf has a relatively high horizontal velocity when jumping in the air compared to most other characters, so he can go further out much like captain falcon, and bair has a...

    I'm new to wolf, literally.

    Hit em with your moves. Or, you know, just like look at any of the threads in this subsection of smashboards and learn about advanced techs and wolf matchups and things without making people repeat information that is already readily accessible to you. Boom.

    PM Wolf Social thread

    No. Keep doing it. Practice until you can do it consistently. That's the only way to get good at it.

    PM Wolf Social thread

    Completely different. He's like a melee spacie in pm. In brawl as far as I know he was kind of a spacing character that used a lot of bairs and fsmashes. In PM he has a fierce combo game, an amazing projectile, has all of the amazing melee shine options which lets him shield pressure something...

    Picking up Wolf!

    That's not what wavelanding is. Wavelanding isn't necessarily going straight down. You can waveland with a diagonal control stick direction to move when landing. Generally yes, you want to do that. When people waveland blaster most of the time they do it with a diagonal control stick direction...

    Picking up Wolf!

    It's just terminology. Wavedashing is when you airdodge during your first few airborne frames, optimally your very first one. Wavelanding is airdodging more generally in to the ground to get the exact same effect, and is generally done while falling towards the ground. It's a waveland because...

    Picking up Wolf!

    Blaster waveland is basically hitting R to airdodge after the laser comes out of your blaster to cancel the end lag and instead do a waveland. Dacus is Dash attack cancel upsmash, and is not exclusive to Wolf. Every character can do it, but Wolf's is pretty good because it goes decently far...

    Wolf vs. Mario/Ganon

    Nobody is saying that you have to ignore neutral. Of course you have to play neutral. But once you have a hit there's absolutely no reason to not take it as far as you possibly can't. Chillindude's neutral game is pretty awful, and the only reason he does so well is because his punish game is...

    nair>shine

    Just chiming in here to confirm that nair -> shine does in fact beat any option other than invincible up b oos or holding shield if you tap their shield with it, and if they hold shield you can do multishine or shinegrab. Nair is incredibly good on shield, and will hit confirm in to shine while...

    Wolf vs. Mario/Ganon

    Real talk though, telling this guy to just do an aerial and then shine and reset to neutral is pretty bad advice. When Ganon hits you, he hits really hard, and if you just let him reset to neutral after getting a single hit, he's gonna win neutral sometimes and he doesn't have to win it as many...

    Optimizing punishes vs Fox

    So, shoutouts to Rat for this, but one option you can do at low percents against the spacies is to bounce them with shine two times, and then let them fall to the ground. The idea here is that if they tried to tech the first shine when they hit the ground, the window for teching won't be reset...

    Semi-cloning or decloning Wolf?

    Yeah, it's way different. Mostly because it knocks your opponent at a diagonal angle away from him. This lets him follow it up with one of his aerials depending on percent damage, weight, and fallspeed of his opponent. One of Wolf's bread and butters is shining a guy, following him in the air...

    Semi-cloning or decloning Wolf?

    Yeaaaaaah. Sorry if I came off a bit abrasive in my last post. It's just that changing Wolf's shine is a lot like taking away, I dunno, Captain Falcon's Knee, or Falco's dair. It's iconic and important to a lot of people. I originally wanted to write my post just explaining why I thought other...
