    A new samus has arrived to smashboards

    Very nice use of bair in those movies. I would agree with the others that you should use a bit more zair. Also I think you should work on canceling your super missles a bit better as I noticed that most of your shots either went over your opponents head or failed to fire at all. They have a...

    The best and worst recoveries in brawl?

    Incases where a character has other recovery options, tether recoveries are actually a vital asset as they allow you to mix up your recovery, and as a bonus can actually be used to save yourself from horizontal killing moves. In this light I would put both Samus preety high on the recovery...

    Grab canceling?

    Something just like that also happened to me. I was playing as pit against Toon Link (level 9 CPU) and I also was able to break free of the grab instantaneously. From what the replay looks like Toon Link was pushed up and away at the exact moment that his clawshot contacted Pit...

    How does samus do against pit?

    Against a friend of mine who plays Pit I've found that a short hop into a fast fall Z-air is a great way to cut through the arrow spam, since the grapple not only stops the arrow but if you are in range can hit pit. Also I've found that trying to come down on top of pit using D-air does not...

    Samus Questions & Answers

    That sounds like a good idea if they already have you in a chain grab, because its low start up lag should allow you to exploit any windows in their chain grab to escape. Unfortunately, to my knowledge, this method does not work on infinite grabs, since there is no window to escape, so perhaps...

    Samus Questions & Answers

    Here's a quick question and I am sorry if this has already been investigated. Due to concern about dealing with chain grabs from both Ice Climbers and King Dedede, is it possible to use bombs to interrupt it. Since the bomb is timed, one could make sure to always make sure that there was a...

    Close this please.

    Although I have never been subject to an infinite grab, let alone witnessed one preformed by the Ice Climbers, I have to agree with the majority opinion that it is wrong to ban this technique. Firstly, it is much to early in the develope of the meta game to be making such large, potentially...

    Who do you second?

    I am currently working on a few other characters including regular Samus, Toon Link, Zelda and Shiek, though I have not really decided which I like the most after Zero Suit Samus.

    How Dair You? Samus Compilation Vid

    Thanks for the information. I always assumed that latching onto the edge was instantaneous, so that you could not hit someone as they were grabing the ledge, but I guess I'll go into training to work on the timing.

    How Dair You? Samus Compilation Vid

    Nicely done, though I am curious as to how you hit the characters with the up tilt as they were about to grab onto the ledge. Is it that a character does not gain invincibility until they actually latch onto the edge, either directly or by tether, so you can hit them off with good timing, or...
