here add more to your game, you can do the light sheild trick vs marth with jigglypuff, by rolling to the edge, before your roll ends hold right or left (whichever is the direction away from the stage) on the control stick, and also be holding Z to light shield angled off the edge

when marth hits your shield you auto-edge hog his up B, and if and when he lands onto the stage you can rest him

if you feel like being a douchebag like i do, you can also dash attack to the edge, light shield off, then rest me right after the up B hits your shield. This one isn't really useful though it's just funny. Actually it is useful, if a Fox/Falco don't sweet spot well, perhaps you can do this and then rest them? I never actually tried it, but I just thought of it right now.

anyway mango, watch out, the m2k monster is hiding under your bed

but before i came out you went to sleep

and i died :(

M2k's location made me want to eat cereal =O.

The lightshield while facing forward -> instant move is pretty cool, but I'm a marth main and I haven't really thought of any move to do right after. Does up+b work?

nah i havent really played alone for like a year usually at tourney

you can light shield to fair most likely, and hit marth, this is very funny to dol with sheik vs marths

you can also lightshield to shinespike

light shield to up B i never tried

melee has so much expansion that it could have it if was going to exist for more years, too bad brawls coming out =(

Lol even Mike Haze does the forward lightshield trick to shine.

If Marth does it right, he should be able to grab the ledge before Jiggly can, can't he? If it doesn't work in Marth vs Marth, how would Jiggly grab the stage faster than him?

shorter height, someone wrote here somewhere that light shield trick is dependent on how well the sweetspot is, how tall your character is, how fast your character falls and some other garbage.

If the marth has a perfect sweetspot, Jiggs won't fall.

I've tested with Knivez, after a while he was able to up-b to the ledge while I was lightshielding and not hit me.

You're not angling your light shield enough.

Mango: I got two questions.

Hounestly, who is the best Puff-player of you and King?

And, I'm a Puff-player myself. Got any hints?

I want to say Mang0 is the better Puff, but I'm just a fanboy >.>


I'm not Mang0, but I can give some Puff hints :

1) Learn when it's a good idea to use pound, because, if you miss, you're gonna take a whipping.

2) Mindgames son - As Puff, mindgames are aplenty, Jiggs moves through the air so easily - Why take a Marth F-smash when you can get him to miss you with it and get a free...

3) ....REST!

4) Even more importantly, SPACING

5) And most importantly, REST COMBOS (see Mang0 rest combo for best description of this)



Care to add Mang0?

when you do the light shield edge hog would it be practical to put him to sleep/sing cancel, or is there enough lag otherwise to take care of marth?

most of the time the marth will go above you so they won't get hit, so in that situation, just push twds the stage, so when you get hit with the upb, you won't fall, and when they land above you you can punish with usmash out of shield and whatnot.
