It's a little inconsistent, but Belmont's dash attack can beat out minor projectiles such as Mario's fireballs and uncharged Shadow Balls from Mewtwo. It seems like its odds are best when you're around the mid-point of the attack. And while I'm here, have a silly combo. Training mode lists it...

Can anyone confirm if B-Air true combos after a U-Air or not? Because that's pretty cool. I've seen the combo done, just not sure if it's true or not. The trajectory is right, MK just has to angle the hit of U-Air right so that the trajectory sets them into the B-Air's position from what I...

To be fair, this does look inescapable. DI doesn't come into effect until you enter freefall, tumble, whatever you wanna call it. By the time you're hit by the foot, in this situation it's already too late. However, yeah, this has been my concern for MK ever since the new patch. Outside of...

Well, I could just be talking for myself here but typically, I gravitate towards the easiest options with highest payoffs in competitive. The main reason is because the easier your tool, the less likely nerves or other distractions have to mess with you. This also applies to online battles...

Was discussing this over on the sub-reddit, seeing as how MK is my main. Honestly, my only question is; can you or can you not DI out of his U-Airs? If this is true, MK took a huge blow. I'd even argue it to be the biggest nerf to a character in this game so far. You can point to the Diddy...

Yeah, I feel yah. Still love the character though, I'm possibly even dropping MK as my main for him. I just like the number of tools he has. Always been a fan of the little things like suicidal kill moves, throwable projectiles, shield break set ups, instant kill moves and so on. I was looking...

I'd like to ask a question about optimal actions after tossing a relatively high percentage opponent off the side of the edge. Would you guys either attempt to follow them, or would you take the time to eat some bike parts and get some Waft charge up? After some practice I've been able to eat...

Been noticing a pretty clear pattern of alot of Wario's match-ups being just under even. Typically they're slightly in the opponent's favor. Poor guy. But it could be worse. Anyone got a chart of match-ups for Wario so far? Havn't seen one yet. I believe I saw a pretty clean chart on the...

Very nice sets from Reflex there. That first Sonic set also proves that the Wah vs Hog match-up isn't as free in Wario's favor as people seem to believe.

Very good point actually. Though, it helps that MK's dash attack isn't already unsafe on its own. If that were the case, I'd actually give that to the Captain's favor. But it's certainly a nice thing to have. What I want to know though is; are Pikmin attached to MK able to delay his Uairs long...

Anyone know if there's any uses for dropping off a ledge into a jump B-Reversed ASC back onto the stage? I can't tell if it's safe or not, even with high aura and nearly max charged sphere. It's just something I've been ****ing with in an attempt to find another ASC set-up. Also, is trying to...

:4metaknight: I feel like this is in Meta Knight's advantage, however, this is really early thoughts about it as I have a very difficult time trying to find Olimars. But my argument is basically this; unless Oli is rocking Purples, there's little stopping MK's approach. He's not great at it...

Heya, 3DS player here so I can't say much about C-stick interaction. But, yeah controlling the move can be a pain in the butt sometimes. It's awkward how when if you want to say... Go straight up then to the left, like an upside down L, it's not as simple as just launching up, then holding...

Ah, no you can do the slide out of a normal ES as well. From what I can tell, the only difference is the direction Lucario faces at the end of ES if you reverse it. Can't say I've noticed any difference in land lag off of a slide with or without reversed ES :(

On topic of Lucario, I'd say it's in the Captain's favor. Olimar just has better frame data, his Pikmin eat aura spheres for breakfast like they're no big deal, Lucario at early percents needs grabs to get damage up which just can't happen all that well when flower dudes are head bangin' to...
