Word. Get out of my life, 10 character limit.

Any time! :)

Why don't you fortress hog on Yoshi's Story? Fortress hogging is one of Bowser's most powerful movement tools, it leads to some very good options (<100% ledge jump on YS puts you on the lower platforms without lag), and it's so easy to do on YS. Also, grab more. Bowser's running grab has crazy...

Well, that was enjoyable to watch. Good stuff, dude. :bowsermelee:

Just watched your match with Jojo, Synnett. You played really well, but I do have some tips. First and most important: Kill harder, not smarter. What do I mean by this? I mean that you should take a mile whenever he gives you an inch. Be aggressive, and don't give him any room to breathe. Work...

You can find hitboxes and frame data in Seikend's thread, "Bowser's Hitboxes and Frame Data UPDATED: 20/01/11," which is stickied at the top of this Bowser section.

Good explanations, but I don't think any of this is new. What's "wavesurfing," though? I don't think I've heard that term before.

Edge-cancelled 'Fortress is when you go airborne, land on a ledge, and then fall off of it towards the end of the animation to cancel the 'Fortress and go into a normal falling state, in the same fashion as any other edge cancel. A Fortress Hog is when you use the Whirling Fortress to hang from...

I've been very inactive lately because of college and other factors, but I'm still alive.

The lag definitely does affect Bowser, just like it affects literally every character in the game. You might think it doesn't hit Bowser as hard because he's slow to begin with, but that just means that you have to wait even longer for visual feedback. And, if nothing else, the frame windows on...

Good stuff, Eikelmann! :)

The "all seeing eye of Dreamland" is right above the top platform. I can't find the face in the shield bubble either.
