I prefer jab combo's to flurries, no question. Partly because I tend to not stop pressing the button long enough and end up flurrying too long (lack of experience since my mains are all jab'ers) when I'm trying to do a smash or something instead, and partly because they give the opponent less...

I'm thinking its DK. You need to keep them at mid-range (and he has the attacks to do it), he's got some attacks with a lot of winddown but quick startup, and he's definately got the shield pressure thing with his SideB doing massive shield damage and his DownB punishing dodges and such.

Description for Charizard's Dair is wrong (a copy of the desc. for his Bair). Should be something about stomping his feet downward. And yah, all Pikmin colors spike with Dair as long as you hit in the right spot. Straight down, so its a proper spike, though its possible hitting at a different...

Toon and regular Link are worlds apart. Toon Link is twice as fast, and jumps twice as high as normal Link, not to mention Link falls like a rock and Toon Link is pretty average. That alone seperates them quite a lot. Their attacks might not be too different (though still more different than...

Interesting read. But I thought starting position was randomized now, not dependent on your port...

Interesting. I never thought "Hmm, Yoshi's horizontal speed is crazy", but now that its pointed out... yah. I suppose that's the reason I can leap out to almost the border of the stage to attempt spikes (if I'm feeling particularly daring) and still live. I don't think it "changes" much. Its...

Wow, that reverse Double Team is pretty cool. I almost never use DT though... nor counters in general. Don't like the idea of mistiming and then suffering enough lag for Ike to hit you with a Fsmash, plus its really hard for me to break the habit of just instintively shielding / dodging in...

Speaking of wall cling... does anyone have a list of exactly what stages you can actually use wall clinging successfully? Some of them are obvious, but others not so much. I'd just like a list so I can get an idea of everyplace to use it, and where not to. I don't use Wall Cling nearly enough...

I'm fine with the hazards on 75m. Any and all of them. Fireballs are annoying, but they don't kill you, and the springs are easy to see coming (and fun to throw your opponents into). My only problem with it is the ladders. Being someone who uses Tap Jump as his primary method of jumping, its...

Hmm, Dtilt is nice. But with the removal of CC'ing in Brawl I've been rather bad about using any Dtilts in general, with any character. Need to force myself to use them despite that, some of my "mains" have really good ones. Lucario especially, since you can even crawl to move yourself around...

Its pretty meh. Some characters can dodge it with almost no effort whatsoever (anyone with good vertical movement), and almost every character can dodge it if the player is good. Even if you hit them on the way up, its still pretty easy to dodge, especially if your opponents "bait" you into...

Dsmash's attack comes out faster. Yes. But going by the total frames it takes to complete the entire animation, Fsmash finishes slightly faster. Dsmash has a lot of winddown lag. As far as the opponent shielding / dodging, and which one will leave you less vulnerable, Fsmash is better. But of...

A lot of that vid is just clinging below the ledge. You did it a couple times, though. The one on Yoshi's Island was exactly what I've done a couple times by accident. Where half your body is above the ledge and appears to be clinging to thin air. Never done it out of ES before, though...

For the 17 damage Fsmash... is it possible the Ice Climbers bashed into each other as you sent them flying? I think that deals a certain amount of damage. I seem to remember it doing 3% damage just from noticing it during matches (never actually tested it), so maybe if both of them ran into each...

Eh, I've never focused on "tested" combo's. I make my own as I go. Though I do like to know what moves "pair" well. Like Jab -> Force Palm. I don't see anything wrong with combo discussion, though. People should know that combo's are never going to be 100% reliable, especially in Brawl...
