    Links double up b glitch

    It'd still be near impossible to fake. Remember that the Metaknight is a computer, and if you have the patience to manipulate a computer to do that (alongside setting up the percents and position), you're crazy.

    The Big Book of Fox Matchups

    Fox can still outspam Bowser, easily. Short-ranged flames are nothing for lasers that go nearly the entire length of FD. Thus, Bowser is forced to approach. And, er, as I've heard, Bowser's approach is less than amazing. You're right about it not being 1/5. Since that's just silly. Bowser can...

    Am I being a bandwagoner?

    The match-up chart, which I'm sure hasn't factored in that only Marth/Charizard infinites us (hell, we're disadvantaged against Fox, only because he could "release grab to Up Smash" us), is where quite a few people get a general overview of a character. Really sucks when it's biased against your...

    The Specifics Of Grabs. ~

    If you do the grab attack fast enough, the enemy (at least Ness and Lucas are) cannot escape by jumping.

    Luss - Lucas/Ness

    Yeah, but if we combined them, we'd have some sort of demonic chimera. ...Until Marth runs up and grabs him, at least.

    Practice routines

    As long as they aren't pushovers. If you play against bad people too much, you'll start to develop habits that work only on those who don't know what they're doing. I find that this is especially true in Brawl, where punishing is a million times easier with the shield mechanics. So, if the...

    You'd think they'd have learned...

    He's referring to the release grab of death, and how it transcends through time and space itself. Sakurai: *laughs*

    Smash Back Room Weekly Character Discussions! FINAL UPDATES: Ness + Lucas. All done!!

    This is like...Ike. All the way. "This character has some difficulty with some of the faster characters, as well as characters with strong projectile spamming games." Ike is just destroyed by faster characters and those who can spam projectile with ease. He can't land a hit on the fast...

    Official Brawl Tier Discussion (OP Updated)

    Lucas has a faster and much easier to land-for-the-kill Forward Smash. Lucas's PK Fire is a ridiculously spammable projectile. Lucas's recovery is better. Lucas's PSI Magnet comes out faster, turns off faster, and has a hitbox upon deactivation. Lucas only gets deathgrabbed by Marth, wheras Ness...

    Ness vs. Ike

    If Ike whiffs a move, chances are you can punish with a PK Fire. Whatever you do next depends on Ike's percentage. Also, PK Thunder mindgames. Ike's pretty bad at mobility, so you can pressure him very well with it. If he gets predictable with his Aether (which he probably will, given Ike's...

    Official Brawl Tier Discussion (OP Updated)

    I do recall there being a list of follow ups people could do, but that was in fact made by someone who failed to DI with Lucas/Ness. Does anyone happen to have a list of follow ups that include DI? I mean, usually, grabs are pretty fast (aside from tether grabs), and unless you have incredible...

    Official Brawl Tier Discussion (OP Updated)

    Well, I'm really surprised that some people still don't know that Lucas can only be "infinite" grabbed by Marth, and Ness by Marth and Charizard. And it's infinite only in the sense that it's a chaingrab, only you take a step forward instead of a foxtrot forward. Because being chain grabbed by...

    Do you think Ness is for beginners?

    More like everyone would use ROB, right? >_> Starting hard and going to easy is like going from Calculus to Algebra. Calculus assumes you already know Algebra (and if it doesn't, take it for the figurative meaning), which you don't. In the end, you just make it harder on yourself. Learn...

    Do you think Ness is for beginners?

    Ness is pretty difficult to pick up compared to the others. PK Thunder 2 requires more practice than other recoveries, and will probably be a turn off to newbies. His PK Fire is punishable if used incorrectly, Magnet is pretty bad for countering projectile spam, and Flash...? I don't really have...

    New possible advanced tech?

    You weren't, by chance, playing with items on? It's possible you might've picked up a Franklin Badge earlier. Otherwise, this would be a really weird yet awesome glitch.
