    Rank the 5 Smash (fighter) franchises you have spent the most time playing

    1. Splatoon: I have nearly 3,000 hours in splatoon 2 alone as a competitive player in that game. 2. Pokemon: Platinum, Black and Black 2, Y and Omega Ruby, also sun and Ultra sun but wasn't into those as much. Reached max play time on both Black and Black 2. 3. Mario: 64, Sunshine, paper mario...

    Ranking moves in Characters (Round 21: Discussing Down-Special)

    Alright, I'll say it one more time. Fox dthrow isn't D-tier. How is bowser Jr dthrow, which does the same amount of damage and has no sort of combo or follow up that even remotely works, an entire tier higher? It also doesn't kill until 200% at the ledge, which is probably uthrow kill range...

    Ranking moves in Characters (Round 21: Discussing Down-Special)

    Fox's dthrow isn't D or F-tier, imo. At low percents he actually does have situational combos even with optimal DI (I've tested it, believe me), and a lot of the time, when not true, the opponent won't have any fast enough option to escape a RAR FF bair except airdodge, which is punished with up...

    Fox's Out of Shield Punish Data

    Do you mean after they hit my shield and I am trying to punish them? Because if so, jab and shield would be the same frame for those two characters, but shield is much easier to test. Shield is always frame 1, and no option can outspeed it, making it the universal fastest option to test with. Is...

    Fox's Out of Shield Punish Data

    It's been going good but, I accidentally screwed up and deleted All my aerial data. I have to redo all that and then get help with cloud, corrin and bayo. And yes, I use training mode and slow it down, pause during shieldstun, then drop shield immediately and buffer dash attack or usmash or...

    Ranking moves in Characters (Round 21: Discussing Down-Special)

    Why is fox in the same tier as pikachu? Three pika uairs does less damage than one fox uair, and with platforms fox can combo 3-4 of them, and it autocancels as well as kills. Fox's utilt, tipper dtilt, AC dair, and even landing uair (yes, that's a thing) all combo into his uair, which again...

    Q&A Mechanics & Techniques Discussion

    Hello I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I have a question regarding safety on shield data. When the data says -X number, does that mean that any move that takes X or fewer frames to hit (assuming the move has enough range) will punish the opponent before they can shield...

    How do I beat a Bait 'n Punish playstyle?

    One tip that would help you a lot is to use dash attack OOS on some of his pokes. You will be surprised at how many seemingly safe pokes become unsafe against a skilled fox.

    F air is not useless after all...

    I found that first hit fair combos into utilt from around 0-15%. But why do this when hard nair to jab is safer and still does good damage?

    Auto Cancels and Movement

    Does buffering a walk or run after an aerial like this cancel the normal 2 or 4 frame landing lag? If it does then we can use an aerial to "L-cancel" a few frames of lag off if we aren't in another animation.

    Why do you play fox?

    I love his playstyle, the mobility (which some find wierd), combos, punish game, good frame data and kill setups are just what I look for when choosing a main. If he sucked, I would still play him, but he wouldn't be a main.

    Dashing Upsmash Input (tilt stick)

    Whenever I miss a JC usmash I get an fair, not a dash attack or grab.

    Is Fox solo viable?

    Lack of results? Larry places top 8 in majors with fox consistently, and Xzax places well consistently too. With the nerfs to other characters, I honestly think fox is solo viable.

    Practicing alone?

    Literally just make a box with lava on the walls, that's what I did. Make sure the bottom part of the box is not lava covered so that you can actually time your techs when you want them, instead of endlessly being thrown around. It would take you longer to find a good stage then it would for you...

    Practicing alone?

    Some of the CPUs are stupid because they literally sit there and spam unsafe projectiles. The only CPU's I usually practice against are characters that don't spam burst movement options (falcon pick, PK Thunder, etc.), and don't spam projectiles. The projectile characters can be used for...
