    Hierarchies of Power: The Ganon Community Tier List! (Updated October 8th 2017)

    I am super confused as to why Garioshi isn't S rank. I have seen his For Glory youtube montages and he seems pretty god like.

    Q&A New to Sheik? Look here to learn how to get started/Need help with Sheik? Ask your questions here.

    Any advice for d3, projectile heavy characters, and characters that can mash out of combos with their nairs like yoshi and mario? I feel like D3 might just be a matter of me needing to clean up my conversions and extending my combos, but I find it hard to get in on him without taking damage...

    That looked like absolutely abysmal DI, but DI probably wouldn't have saved him. Marth and Lucina are both really freaking light for their size. They are even lighter than diddy kong, like bottom 15 light. Obviously though, not everyone is going to be living as high as my example and it was...

    I was kind of just comparing the kill power. Obviously sheik's fair is really good, but Lucina's Fair has exactly the same base knock back, with even less knockback growth than a move that is basically designed for combos and not to kill, yet it can't combo. A clip I have saved and will be...

    The first stage of grief is denial. One day you will understand, when you get tired of sitting there watching people survive your fsmashes at 120%, and people surviving your off stage fairs at 140+. Take into consideration all of the moves lucina can not kill with that can kill because of...

    Q&A New to Sheik? Look here to learn how to get started/Need help with Sheik? Ask your questions here.

    I am having some serious issues landing grabs with sheik. Anyone have any advice? I feel like even when I am reading their movement I can't land the grab and i go right through them. Her grab hit box just seems so tiny. Are the advanced grab techs worth looking into/will they help alleviate...

    Lucina 1.11 Shield Safety Frame Data

    For anyone wondering, the person who has been doing the calculations for several characters new shield safety frames has completed the data on Lucina. The numbers I was throwing out in the other thread were off by around a frame for each aerial according to this guy, so here is the correct...

    I don't suppose there is anyone out there that is willing to be a "mentor" of sorts for this character is there? I have been trying to pick up sheik on and off since april and I just can't seem to get the hang of her. I can't really combo well, and my neutral in general is just very unsafe. I...

    In the event that the upcoming patch doesn't bring any significant changes.

    Yeah, I haven't really come to these forums much since like March when I realized that the competitive discussion was dying down, and the most active topic was usually just the social. When I posted this thread I didn't realize how dead the board was in general though. I didn't really ever...

    Either you are reading it wrong or I am reading it wrong, because for the most recent patch, all of Lucina's aerials except dair are unsafe from shield grab according to that list . I highly doubt that it is taking into account the sword spacing though, so it is really just business as usual.

    In the event that the upcoming patch doesn't bring any significant changes.

    I am noticing virtually no difference in the safety of her attacks. All of my aerials spaced completely at the tip of the sword are being grabbed, so basically throwing out any aerial is still unsafe as hell if it gets shielding. The shield breaker nerf is incredibly noticeable however, since...

    In the event that the upcoming patch doesn't bring any significant changes.

    Well according to reddit, apparently my spacing being bad is the reason why I am calling it bad and not because the move itself is bad and I just need to learn to space better. I guess we have our answer guys. Lucina isn't bad, we just aren't spacing well enough!

    It probably won't be, since it is intentional.

    He definitely wouldn't have gotten hit if he didn't use neutral b, but it looks like there are a few factors here at play in addition to that, so its not an extreme case of getting hit because of an extended hurtbox. First off, the active frames on it are basically non existent, its only active...
