Hey so I always see people talking about how the fair has enough shieldstun on it to give you a free grab after, but I've never seen it done. Can someone explain?

There aren't many things guaranteed in Smash, friend, if you know they're coming.So I'm assuming it's a float cancel on the fair then? And what they can roll out? I thought the point of it was to hold them in shield stun long enough that you could just dash grab them
I thought you were supposed to do a dash grab rather than a standing grab? It's what the 2015 Peach Guide doc says. But confirmation of either way wpuld be nice.Oh and btw, if you intend to go for a fair grab, hold the shield button as you are doing the fair and then mash A when you land, it is far easier to execute fair grab this way for two reasons: Mashing A is easier than mashing Z and secondly, if you time your Z button press wrong you get Z shield which can be infuriating.
It is absolutely a standing grab.I thought you were supposed to do a dash grab rather than a standing grab? It's what the 2015 Peach Guide doc says. But confirmation of either way wpuld be nice.
Pardon my vigor, but this is bull****. Mashing in this situation is bad. You can just practice and time the grab which will get you way more consistent results.Oh and btw, if you intend to go for a fair grab, hold the shield button as you are doing the fair and then mash A when you land, it is far easier to execute fair grab this way for two reasons: Mashing A is easier than mashing Z and secondly, if you time your Z button press wrong you get Z shield which can be infuriating.
Yeah, when I read that, my immediate thought was that you're wasting your positive frame advantage on shield grabbing, especially with a mash, when you can just train muscle memory for the correct timing.Pardon my vigor, but this is bull****.
