Ah didn't even realize. It's just a harder version of Ike's Eruption but with practice it's just as deadly. Probably even scarier considering you can kind of chase them off stage with it.

Use Neutral B offstage. I know it looks scary but it's awesome for off stage pressure and easy KO's when they're forced to recover directly. It's got minimal end lag for a reason.

Roy has a better Fsmash. But if you're playing competitively you won't be wanting to throw that attack out too much. Just because it looks fast doesn't mean it can't be punished badly. Ike in all reality, probably has a better time killing than Roy does due to Roy's safe hit/sourspot dilemma...

^^^Perfect example of the MU right there. Roy's Nair is perfect for closing distance and taking neutral. However, he was eventually having issues making the kill because Ike wouldn't let him get in close. And Roy didn't want to get in close because he knew Ike would take advantage and tack on...

^^^ Flare Blade doesnt really cover much distance either, and although it has little end lag, it's start-up is on the slow side. It's a good baiting tool for now simply because of lack of MU knowledge but as time goes on, I can see the move being less and less useful.

And that Ike player was able to show none of that in that video. Instead he just allowed Roy to keep taking advantage of everything he did. The Roy player knew what he was doing a lot better than the Ike player.

Yes, just a stupid misunderstanding, of course. Just proves that talking is always a much better cure than even I am... unless you die in combat.

Fun set to watch but that Ike was terrible lol made way too many errors. By the way, Ike's jab is faster by a frame.

I like your argument Flukey but one thing to remember is that a good Ike is fully capable of B-airing you even when you are on the ground, not just when you short hop. You probably knew that but just keep that in mind if you didn't. Because of the delay on Roy's counter it requires a very hard...

Ah, I see. That was fast.

Well, I guess we're amusing each other then. Ladies first. @smokebomb12 if what you are saying is true then you somehow managed to make the entire Link boards deem you intolerable within a week by accident. That's what you're saying... Actually, don't reply to this smoke, just think about it...

My apologies. Makes sense.

@Zane the pure regardless of his inability to defend himself and realize when he's getting bashed, he still has done nothing wrong since he came to these boards. This thread is still a social thread. We have completely separate threads for topics on the meta and MU's for a reason, am I wrong...

Yes... I didn't want to bring a certain someone's ignorance into this but if you want to talk about that, you're damn right that its annoying and that kid has been trying to piss off everyone in the boards since he started visiting this board. That's exactly what i meant when I said you're able...

You will be fine @Unknown Hero I promise. You know, I was gonna let this incident slide but I can't... all the people that decide they wanted to sit at their little desk and play big and go nuts in front of a computer for absolutely no reason, just remember you're on a social forum on the...
