    Haven't implemented it vs puff tbh. It's good vs everyone though

    @Popertop what you said about edge guarding was good. It's kind of an ambiguous topic so they're really not many wrong answers. Two thumbs up

    Q&A Ask about Pikachu! Hosted by Axe and N64! feat. dkuo!

    Edgeguarding is very very complicated, but if you try and focus on just covering as much as possible via reaction and try to figure it out yourself, I believe you can figure it out (:

    Q&A Ask about Pikachu! Hosted by Axe and N64! feat. dkuo!

    Chaingrab starts at 0% on spacies (frame perfect) and is a little easier around 12%. Goes till 120%, just upsmash at 100 though. Falcon same thing but its easier at low percents. Upthrow upsmash starts at around 12% on spacies(difficult) and 0% on falcon(P easy). The 2nd answer I would literally...

    Pikachu Puff Guide?

    Hey guys, trix here. If you have absolutely no idea who I am, I am a moderately not bad pikachu from Chicago, and I was thinking about making a puff guide since 1. Alot of pikachus tend to struggle with the matchup. 2. Axe doesn't even play it anymore really, and I don't see any chance of him...

    How do you escape sheiks chaingrab early?

    I know for sure that if you do everything correctly, its 35% at worst. think you can get out a tiny bit sooner actually. I think axe is just talking about realistically when most people can get out, but with super good DI and everything I know it ends at 35% at the very very latest(As I said...

    Yeah I would say that half of pikachus matchups in top tier are just relatively even at any level, and the other half go from being complete ass(I.E. sheik) at low level to arguably winning matchups at the very highest level. You just have to stick with it.

    Having trouble with the shiek matchup

    @damncracka axe DI's onto sheiks head and ever so slightly behind and then uses tap jump to buffer a jump(it buffers for 3 frames) to get out the first actionable frame. Doing that alone it goes to 35%, but axe also implements ambigious DI, making it basically a read for sheik to grab the right...

    Having trouble with the shiek matchup

    LOL. Go on youtube and search "Axe vs sheik" and put the time setting to sets in the past few months. It doesn't even go past 20% if you escape right. Idk where you're getting the 38% number. Also, lmao at pikachu being 14-15 with gannondorf.

    Having trouble with the shiek matchup

    If you watch axe vs anyone in the past few months, he's been getting out at 15-20% constantly vs the very highest level sheiks. Also axe beats shroomed all the time lol. It's been a struggle for shroomed recently actually, I think axe has won like the last 7.

    Having trouble with the shiek matchup

    The CG only goes till 15 or 20%. It's basically non-existent lol. Pikachu sheik being even relatively a bad matchup is an extremely out-dated opinion

    @bboss lol no

    Having trouble with the shiek matchup

    just practice converting off tech chases, upsmashes, and grabs vs cpu sheiks and then work on it vs an actual sheik. Converting positional advantage off things like upair is also really important.

    Having trouble with the shiek matchup

    Imo, the best way to beat sheik is to just work on your punish game. Pikachu can punish slightly harder than her imho, its just alot more difficult to do it with pikachu. If you do that, you force her to win neutral more than you, which is very difficult given your superior mobility
