alright Ive been having many match ups (With Anyone matches) with sword characters lately and Ive noticed that Mr.G&W's recovery move (while on the ground) is faster and higher than a sword (Link,Ike,Toon Link,Marth, and Pokemon Trainer's Triple Finish) character can perform. So even if your standing in their range you can dodge the move,

Has anyone else noticed this?

Is he really? I was wondering why it was so good for dodging boss attacks that seemed to go through him. Can we say, furthest dodge in the game?

Go to Training and put the speed to 1/4 and use Up-B. G&W will flash like when he grab the edge and we haven't be "hit" in these frames (yet), so I guess they're invincibility frames.

But since G&W can be grabbed in his Up-B (I never tested it though), I don't know if he can only be grabbed after the invincibility frames window or he can be grabbed at anytime (Kirby Down-B anyone ?) so maybe it's not true Invincibility Frames (a la Super Armor Frames). (If you are curious about grabbing his Up-B, it's somewhere on this board but no one really care since it's so hard to pull off)

In your head.
yes his up-b has some final smash dodging potential, ever try dodging sonic's final smash? i just up-b to down air (repeat). fun stuff, but it will get predictable...
