Meta Knight Q&A Thread

[jpak]

Hey, I had trouble facing a kirby that quite frequently just used his special that sucked up my meta knight. Any suggestions on how to approach? I could just keep nadoing him but that doesnt really let me finish him. Is there anything that out ranges it?

Tornado isn't that good vs Kirby.. I don't really know anything else.

 

[jpak]

Nevermind dtilt and ftilt both outrange it.

Is meta knight's only chain grab the one on lucas at lower percents? If not, what are the others, and how do I perform it?
Also are neutral A and neutral special B are the only moves not affected by stale? Pummels are affected right?

 

[FB Dj_Iskascribble]

meta doesnt have a chaingrab.
against lucas and i think ness you keep pummling when they release you dashgrab them. but if they air release you dont have anything

 

[jpak]

Is there anywhere I can read or see images of meta knight's hitboxes? Also anywhere where I can read about stale move negation?

You can see MK's hit-bubbles here: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=263713

how does the meta/rob team work out? any certain way I should play it?

I'm entering this tourny and have no idea whats going to happen. lol

 

[dniMretsaM]

I was just wondering: does DR out prioritize Diddy's bananas?

 

[Ragnar0k]

I don't think so.

 

[dniMretsaM]

I don't think so.

Thanks, I had an idea but nvm.

dood thanks rag. and **** character boards, everyone is a nub and no one really gives a ****.

I'm pretty sure Diddy's bananas are transcendent (I don't think Drill Rush or Nado are, though...).

At 2:20 is that considered stalling?

 

[Hype]

I wouldn't call it stalling, but IDC banned.

This was just a friendlly though.

I wouldn't consider it stalling, since it's a friendly and he didn't use it extensively.

EDIT: Lol@ people's avatar's being cleared.

^Ahh okay, good, I'm not the only one who can't see most avys...

Thought somethin' was up with my internet lol...

 

[6Mizu]

Who still play MK...everyone should play Diddy!

 

[dniMretsaM]

OK, another DR Q. why don't people use it to punish spot dodges? Most people spot dodge when they see it coming?

 

[Ragnar0k]

It doesn't do much damage and tornado is a usually a better option.

 

[Dr. Grandpa]

how do u guys do against good dks O_O wut do u tend to do vs dk

 

[theunabletable]

^Tornado.

Just tornado.

It doesn't do much damage and tornado is a usually a better option.

And you drill rush is punishable ON HIT with someone competent at SDI.

 

[Kaffei]

Tornado all day long.

 

[I am Seth]

tornado dks the whole match. it's game set.

 

[Dr. Grandpa]

o___________O really?

 

[Kaffei]

o___________O really?

I mean, if DK can predict and shield it you can punish I suppose but really Tornado is just too much for DK.

Question!

What is MK's worst matchup? The ditto? Falco? Diddy? I'd like to know lulz.

Probably the ditto, lol.

True, but it could be used to mix things up. Its not meant to do damage, its to keep them guessing.

And drill rush is punishable ON HIT with someone competent at SDI.

If you time it right, it will only hit w/ the last hit box or two and they would receive knock back.

 

[FB Dj_Iskascribble]

diddy and falco can be tough

 

[wiitubeaccount]

is m2k still number one or has diddy surpassed us?

 

[Kaffei]

M2K still is the number 1 Meta Knight, but he tends to lose a lot vs ADHD's Diddy Kong.

 

[-Kiros-]

IMO ADHD is just good, but that doesn't reflect the character he uses. If ADHD decided to main MK I think it would be an interesting ditto between M2K and ADHD. If, that is (possible w/MLG!).

IMO, M2K is just bad at the Diddy MU compared to the other top Meta Knights. However, I recently watched a vid of him vs AZ and he seemed to be improving.

 

[Afropony]

What are the best ways to gimp diddy?

 

[Ragnar0k]

nair his barrels.

 

[Afropony]

Mmm that's what I thought to but I've seen lots of people Dairing the barrel instead. Oh well I guess I'll just keep using Nair.

If he's charging the barrel, D-Air him. If he's already blasting, then N-Air him.
