    Q&A Tips & Answers from a Passing Ninja - Greninja Q&A Thread

    Dtilt footstool works consistently if you land a close sliding dtilt. You can set this up by empty hopping away and drifting back in, and then landing turn around dtilt. A close sliding Dtilt works at earlier percents than strong nair. I'm not sure about high percents but probably not worth the...

    Q&A Tips & Answers from a Passing Ninja - Greninja Q&A Thread

    Uptilt to FS is absolutely guaranteed and at a fairly wide range of percentages. Just because it doesn't work at every percent doesn't make it not a viable set up. How about you don't dismiss things as For Glory shenanigans and actually lab it for yourself? To answer the original question, try...

    Data Meta Knight Hitbox Visualization

    Thank you so much for this! Anyone know which hitbox on SL is the sweetspot launcher? DA is as ridiculous as we thought it was and knowing for sure now that Dair doesn't have more range behind MK will definitely be useful. Let's get this stickied asap

    Q&A Meta Knight: Questions & Answers Thread (Don't make or reply to new threads just asking questions)

    Back throw does the same amount of damage as up throw so if it's just damage you want, back throw will do the job just as easily. If it's stage position you want, and you're facing the ledge, then down throw does the job better. Up throw sends too high to gain any positional advantage from and...

    Social The MKGD: The rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated

    Welcome back! Tap jump isnt actually the best way to perform the combo, as you need the control stick for full air mobility and we don't want to be wasting it pressing it up. Using a shoulder button as jump, in my opinion is the easiest way to do it. Those that don't like the shoulder button...

    Matchup Chart Project 2015 - Calling Meta Knight Mains!

    Anyone who disagrees with what is established, is either misinformed or knows very specific counterplays that are not known by rest of the group. If you know these counterplays, (by either side of the matchup) please, share it with us. It's very easy to assume you are wrong and misinformed when...

    Sliding tilts

    I believe this is called "slingshotting" and/or "U-turn". Quite a few characters get good applications out of this technique, definitely worth learning imo.

    Q&A Meta Knight: Questions & Answers Thread (Don't make or reply to new threads just asking questions)

    So I've been experimenting with MK's Dash turn animation and more specifically the slide afterward (Slingshot). I've not seen much around here discussing it and I wanted to know other people's thoughts on this. His Slingshot seems to go a significant distance (max distance is almost 1/4 of FD)...

    Yeah that's the one. It's never seen consistently performed, but its probably just a matter of time.

    Q&A Meta Knight: Questions & Answers Thread (Don't make or reply to new threads just asking questions)

    Not every character in Melee had equally good ledgedashes, and very few characters can perform the lagless ledge getup in Smash 4. Retaining invincibility would cause those characters ledge options to become much better than the rest of cast. Although I do agree it would be awesome.

    Q&A Meta Knight: Questions & Answers Thread (Don't make or reply to new threads just asking questions)

    In regards to a list, I believe there was one but was taken down because of backlash. Doing your own research isn't that hard anyway, plus will make you better at performing the combo. Dash Attack has 3 different hitboxes. The first is the heel, second is what I like to call the sole, and the...

    Q&A Meta Knight: Questions & Answers Thread (Don't make or reply to new threads just asking questions)

    Okay so I have questions for you guys. 1. Do you think forgoing a small punish which would push the opponent outside of death combo range from dash attack, which means you still retain the ability to death combo them is worth it? In other words, don't punish them so they stay in the "golden...

    Q&A Meta Knight: Questions & Answers Thread (Don't make or reply to new threads just asking questions)

    Pretty sure it has no intangibility. Here are some other suggestions: 1. Meta Knight found a blind spot of Waft (most likely) Edit: Or rather Waft has less active frames than the animation would suggest. 2. Meta Knight's hurtbox doesn't match his SL animation?
