so lemme get this straight.... when Kirby uses neutral B or up-B after using one of his midair jumps, he physically gets bigger, and it took us 15 years to realize this?
just make an UP-B in the air. Jump doesn't matter.

Big Kirby can't avoid Samus' fully charged shot anymore when ducking

Who said anything about ban big kirby? That's dumb. Just ban regular kirby and kill 2 birds with 1 ban

Timotheus and mixa:

You're both right (and wrong). It depends on when Kirby is during his ducking swing. People tend to forget that no character is perfectly static. The small animation they have while standing (or ducking) still moves their hurtbox, so sometimes a move may hit, sometimes it may not, even if the positions are exactly the same. So bigger Kirby can sometimes get caught by Samus' fully charged shot and sometimes can avoid it.

Wait, this doesn't even require specific timing or anything, you just jump, double jump, UP B onto stage ANYWHERE in there, and you get noticeably bigger?

It blows my mind that this hid for so long. Though when I think about it, Melee has been scoured for bugs more extensively than Smash 64
