Lets List Some Samus Win Conditions

[Gum]

Lets have a discussion about different ways to kill with Samus. What is appropriate to do in a sitaution where you can get a KO. Here are some to start with:

Charge Shot(CS) out of shield

Zair>CS

Zair>Dtilt

Zair>running turn around bair(RT Bair)

Tether gimps count, so how are some ways we can set them up?

General:
dtilt out of shield works pretty well so long as you have been taking care of stale moves. Works better on platforms.

bair punish on a platform. Say if someone is knocked down on a platform and they roll, tech chase with bair you can get a kill if high %

I like chasing homing missiles with aerials off the level. This can lead to a dair but of course nothing is guaranteed. This works best against people who have used their midair jump and are forced to airdodge the missile or take the hit.

vx Fox:
nair -> zair off level gimp. (40-80%, I don't have specific numbers)
nair -> nair off level gimp. (low %) This one is a bit more risky.

I don't really use this as a kill move, but I really like dsmash out of shield. Comes out pretty fast and knocks people up, 15% non-stale damage. I use this to give me some space and charge my blaster. If there are platforms I try to tech chase them if they land on them.

I'll be getting the game soon, and I was thinking about some possible ways to follow up the grapple.

Grapple land -> RAR
Grapple land -> Running Usmash

Of course, there are countless others too.

There is the classic dair to bair and dair to charge shot too.

There is the classic dair to bair and dair to charge shot too.

hmm, seems pretty good. i'll have to try it.

 

[Rohins]

There is the classic dair to bair and dair to charge shot too.

those don't work, not enough stun time to connect them

 

[Eten]

Probably right, it puts them in the right places but not before they could airdodge.

nair > jab > charge shot is pretty good stuff.
