    Fusion Fun 2

    Loved it. Especially for the creative uses of all your aerials instead of over-focusing on dair for gimps/ledge game tactics.

    Shoot First, Ask Questions Later: The Samus Tactical Discussion & Q&A Thread

    Hey all, I have not been around much since school punched me in the face, but I do have a question that I have recently become curious about. I know that link, because of his weight, can sometimes DI horizontal moves to put himself in such a position that he can grapple onto the edge while...

    Shoot First, Ask Questions Later: The Samus Tactical Discussion & Q&A Thread

    My personal top three are bf, delfino, and smashville, because they attune to her strengths very well. Stages with platforms generally always help Samus as she can use her multi-hit ariels to punish from below while also allowing for safer recovery options with her screw attack. Smashville is...

    Morph Ball Bomb Discussion

    I am quite excited to see what you have discovered, xyro. I remember spending literally months in melee trying to perfect super bomb dashing and all the charged shot and down smash tricks that came with it. As for normal bomb play, heres a list of situations that I believe they are useful in...

    ^ Awesome. And I mean both posts above. I would say #20 is only half right. Edit - i meant the last two posts on the last pg, forgot to refresh before looking in :)

    Morph Ball Bomb Discussion

    Not sure if this has been said anywhere, but I have found that it is pretty useful to lay a morph ball bomb while you are standing on the moving platform on smashville, moving away from your opponent. The ball is not effected by the platform and remains stationary until the platform moves from...

    Shoot First, Ask Questions Later: The Samus Tactical Discussion & Q&A Thread

    I've got a question. Does anyone know how to consistently get the maximum range with Samus's pivot grab? I always seem to get varying distances on the slide, despite trying different timings when I hit Z and the analog stick. also, does using Z to preform this grab make any difference as...

    Shoot First, Ask Questions Later: The Samus Tactical Discussion & Q&A Thread

    I would not mind playing on Brinstar, but would not pick it as well. With her ranged aerial attacks and heavier weight she can put up a good fight against other characters that prefer a level and non-intrusive field. Also, with the smaller sides I do not mind dying a bit faster if it means I can...

    You Wake Up as your Main

    after getting over having a ******, i would grapple beam my clock to my bed to turn the alarm off faster. once learning how to walk with a super futuristic suit, I would go out and methodically test out every weapon in the back yard. then i would go to new york by train just so that everyone...

    Hey all, is anyone here planning to attend the No Maps! tourney in Princeton on August 8th? I am only a short ride away and have cleared my schedule, so I will be attending. I know for sure who i'll be playing with in low tiers, and it would be cool to see some other Samus's as well.

    Im not sure if anyone tested this yet, but i just tried it with rolling, spot dodging, and neutral a and nothing worked. zs samus's whole get up animation when the armor pops out just happens right on the moving edge. its too bad to, for some reason i find it very easy to switch and have...

    Footstool possibilities! *MAJOR DISCOVERY found=vid on front page*

    EDIT: after trying it some more i actually believe that its easiest to DI the nair so that you hit the highest part of the opponent in his grounded state with samus's body, not her foot. Im not completely sure, but i think if the bomb causes you to jump you did something wrong, so i guess there...

    Footstool possibilities! *MAJOR DISCOVERY found=vid on front page*

    man. the timing is TIGHT i have no way to capture frame data, but from what i have tried so far the hardest part of this for me is definitely getting the bomb out at the precise height to make sure you also can get the nair out later. I believe the lock is easier to get if you make sure to...

    Strange Skrew Attack

    so it was only a partial clank? like samus' screw attack out prioritized the PK thunder, causing ness to get hit, but his PK thunder still canceled out the rest of the move?
