Spikable Characters on the ledge

Rogue Pit · Aug 20, 2008

Wow, i haven't made a thread in ever.

Some Backround info-
If you didn't know pit's feet must touch the person in order for you to down tilt spike them.

While on the ledge, some characters are able to spiked.
Sadly some characters hang on the ledge too low to spiked. Also a few hang up to high :dizzy:

Go figure.

Anywayz here is the list.

Can Be Spiked -
Mario
Luigi
Wario
Kirby (kinda hard to do)
Fox
Falco
Wolf
Zamus
G&W
METAKNIGHT
All Pokemon
(Pika, Jiggly, Squirtle, Charizard, Ivy, Lucario)
Peach
ICE CLIMBERS
King Dedede
Ness
Lucas
Bowser
Olimar
23

Cannot Be -
DK ( He's holds too high :dizzy:

)
Link
Marth
Ike
Diddy
Zelda
Shiek
Captain Falcon
Pit

Snake (can be done to cipher)
Yoshi
Ganondorf
Sonic
Toon Link
R.O.B
Samus
16

Well there you have it, arm yourselves with knowledge, and remember you feet must be on them.

cool i guess it can be useful

rinoH · Aug 20, 2008

nice i didnt know that only certain people can be spiked

DemonicTrilogy · Aug 20, 2008

Wow, nice work. Are you saying that it ispossible to spike the people that are claimed "unspikable" if they were jumping toward the edge?

darkspatan117 · Aug 20, 2008

No If Theyre Holding The Edge

CorruptFate · Aug 20, 2008

This will be a good link to add to the u guide.

rinoH · Aug 21, 2008

oh only if their hanging on the edge

didnt read the beginning

Rogue Pit · Aug 21, 2008

Yea anyone can be spiked if pit's touch them, but the characters in the list "cannot be" must jump to pit's feet in order to be spiked. The Characters in the "Can be" section can be spiked if they hold the ledge and don't have invincibility frames, or if they jump.

Admiral Pit · Aug 21, 2008

The only char that I did it to so far in an actual battle was a typical spammin Wolf. Actually it was a weak child that was "Playing around" to provoke me, and his Wolf paid the price. I think i got that replay too.

FzeroX · Aug 21, 2008

whiy is IC's in all caps? just wondering

and I have spike a link on the edge, but maybe thats cause he jumped at the same time I spike, I couldnt tell, just looked like he was hanging then died

Admiral Pit · Aug 21, 2008

ICs are in caps because I think they are Hated, along with MK.

DemonicTrilogy · Aug 21, 2008

Lol, just because Ice Climber (My other main) can chaingrab doesn't mean that they should be hated.... It takes a while to get used to the timing for chain grabbing...

Rogue Pit · Aug 21, 2008

Demon i understand what you mean because i CG admiral with them sometimes. I miss the downthrow fair alot. Anyways the mere fact that ICs can take a stock off you from one grab is a reason alot of people hate them and because theyre dangerous in general i put their name in Caps along with mk.

DemonicTrilogy · Aug 21, 2008

Oh well. At least people aren't going around trying to ban them (even though I think there are people who are banning the Chain grabs...).

yummynbeefy · Feb 6, 2009

sonic, diddy, ike, and pit are spikable
and if im not mistaken so can yoshi

SkyRay · Feb 6, 2009

Thank youu
I was so confused as to why i couldn't spike any of my friends.
As almost all their mains are on the (not) able to spike list

LoveChrist · Feb 6, 2009

Hmm.. This can prove to be useful.

Riku00 · Feb 7, 2009

I've seen Sagemoon spike a hanging Pit before. And Yoshi's Island gives Pit an advantage of spiking with some characters that cannot usually be spiked becuz of the slant at the edge of the stage.

SkyRay · Feb 10, 2009

I spiked Marth just yesterday on Delfino Plaza on the edge of the island.

EDIT: my friend just told me that he was in the water. not hanging on the ledge

Chaser · Feb 10, 2009

Why spike them with d-tilt when you could just shoot them with arrows instead?

Aminar · Feb 10, 2009

I t should be mentioned that spiking Snake out of his Cypher is very easy if he comes straight up the side of the stage. I've spiked more Snakes than any other char.

Admiral Pit · Feb 10, 2009

Pit's D-tilt spike is somewhat similar to Ike's where the opponent must not be standing on the ground, but the hitbox for Pit's D-tilt spike is Pit's body, right around where his feet are. You can even spike an opponent if Pit is facing the other way, but the hitbox is much smaller behind him, and wont work on those hanging on the ledge.

madival · Feb 14, 2009

This seems kinda risky compared to Bair on the ledge to spike them under the lip or simple knocking them away. It is extremly rare to have anyone stay on the ledge and even rarer to have someone who doesnt have a plan if you advance on them on the ledge.

Phaigne · Mar 12, 2009

Is there a period right as the character starts coming up from the edge where they are vulnerable? It seems that I got a kill once as a person was pulling himself up from the edge.

Hayang · Mar 13, 2009

Phaigne my guess is that your opponent was probably doing a jump recovery or a ledge drop-jump. Attack recovery and normal get-up have invincibility frames.

Phaigne · Mar 13, 2009

I kind of thought so too. I just hoped I was mistaken. That would be great if it were true.

Good call and good info.

Psymon · Mar 13, 2009

So glad this list has been made. It's one of those things that shouldn't be left out, so OH YEAAAHHHHH!!!

Rogue Pit · Mar 17, 2009

Its rather an extreme punishment for unexpecting stalling.

Rogue Pit · Mar 17, 2009

Double post my bad dont lynch teh rogue

You better run, boih! We's gonna hang you from teh oak trees.

Arzengel · Apr 8, 2009

Well this is pretty good stuff to know... when facing a lvl 9 mindless CPU...

Rogue Pit · Apr 10, 2009

Lol you posted just to troll in my old thread? Get real, when pressured correctly people stay on the ledge too long and you can spike them. It kills people below 50% also. Also I had a time I was playing ICeys and nana didnt get up off the ledge when I did and she got spiked. Also mindless computer? How does that make sense?

DominusHaven · Apr 13, 2009

Yeah i've been needing to start looking at this list so I can try and see if I can even apply spiking to my game, thanks. Arzangel pressure can be apllied to keep them on the ledge, there are people who ledge camp when they have high percentages or are at a disadvantage trying to get up, that is when you can take a chance and spike them. there are also other ways for it to be used as well.

Arzengel · Apr 20, 2009

Rogue-Pit:

Lol you posted just to troll in my old thread?

Not really, didn't pay attention to posting-dates. As for the IC thing, guess that may work nice.

DominusHaven:

Hmmm, i take back what I said about "mind-less" (well just a bit).

DominusHaven:

Would love to hear it.

Abel1994 · Feb 3, 2011

Yes FALCO SPIKE :D How should I do it to snake when he does his recovery... I usually grab realese him instead :D

Luckay4Lyphe · Feb 3, 2011

Uhh...if you get the chance do it to his cypher because he can still use c4 to recover if you grab release. Don't be posting in old threads.

Katana_koden · Feb 9, 2011

Though its old, there is a timing to spike more characters during their get up animations as well.

Abel1994 · Feb 14, 2011

Spikeing is so hard to do... Is their like a time you have to do it cous i only get it when the dude just waits their...

Maharba the Mystic · Feb 14, 2011

it's not a time it's a position. they have to be touching a part of your actual body to get the spike. go to training mode and go to brinstar and stand on the bubbles. then do dtilt. you will actually see the spike box come out.

fun fact. if you d-throw DDD (and some other's that i do not remember) on the very edge of a stage and he doesn't DI it combo's into a dtilt spike. as soon as his feet touch ur hair do the dtilt and he goes in a general downward direction. now seriously everyone stop posting in rediculously old threads. this is something for the q & a
