the utilt

[napZzz]

I cant find any use for it, anyone else know how or when to use it?

 

[Gishnak]

Although there are times that using may work, I think there is almost always a better move. (Unless you are trying to unstale other moves)

I never use it.

 

[DMG]

Juggling some of the bigger characters, maybe using it through certain platforms, Idk I don't use it as much as any of his other moves. It's not completely useless or anything but still probably not a staple in his gameplay.

Edit: Forgot you can combo with it after certain moves/setups so it definitely has potential.

It's not terrible. It does less damage wise, but also less knockback wise, which can be good for setting up combos.

Perhaps this is not GaW's best move, but it definetly has potential.
I have managed to use this 3 or 4 times (against a human), after that the opponent is sent directly upward, ready for you to continue comboing .
Also, it can be usefull in stages such as Battlefield, where there are 2 small platforms, and you can hit your opponent from below them (I think.. haven't tested tho..) Also, against big characters (Bowser, Dk) You can grab them, throw them down, and sometimes follow with 3 or 4 Utilts, and u can still continue hitting them after it. Hope this helps.

I noticed that it has deceiving forward range. I use it after the dair at low percents.

combos into itself several times at low percent against heavier characters. situational but good

Honestly I still like the U-tilt, although it's admittedly less useful since the horizontal range is a bit decreased.

It's fast though, and it beats a ton of stuff above G&W. I'm not actually sure if the knockback on this attack is decreased though, because I've actually killed with it a few times. At around say 150% or so? Meh, could be worse. On the other hand I really can't remember killing with G&W's Utilt in Melee ever.

 

[Needle of Juntah]

i like it better in melee is all i can say :/

if i had the game i could prolly get this to work more often(among many other things)

 

[denizen]

combo bigger chars pretty much

 

[Lag]

yeah big characters and low percents pretty much.

 

[xYz]

good situational time for the utilt is to do a landing nair to utilt to nair DH nair and then upB to foward air.

thats the only time I really use it. try it out.

 

[The9litch]

well i use it as a juggle on fast fallers at low percents to juggle...and also, on the big characters, D-throw to U-Tilt works
