Heyo, I'm holding a tournament at Oregon State (Corvallis) some time spring term (late march - june). So, that'll be up on the boards sometime too. Just have to get around my senior schedule :-p.

I've had this happen when I use shuttle loop after an edge-grab (with intention to hit the foe, land on the stage, cancel and continue). Havokk's explanation works there too because if I were to create the proper fast falling conditions (i hit down to ledge-release), I would not come back up to...

Hey guys. I've been reading up and practicing peach for a while. I'm not too good as of yet and University life keeps me from tournaments most of the time. Anyways, I pulled #2 on a Pit who angel ringed me and used Fair to retaliate. Good times. I really want to try out the nair gimp, it...

I feel like my skill slips if I don't practice, (eh, it might be me trying to juggle 4 characters too), but school is more important. I'm a Senior in Chemical Engineering. It 3-stocks me on a regular basis :-p. The nice thing is, a few rounds of smash is a great way to take a break from hours...

Mmm, I do believe that Marth gets a few invincibility frames on his UpB. Just as GaW and MK both do. Marth's is more like MK's though, and he's invincible sometime in the middle of the move, not the beginning like GaW. Hopefully that helps! -Kenpachi

I think he's suggesting that any use of the move forces you to give up the ability to win by timeout. So if you use it to stall then you're only hurting yourself. Though I do agree that its kiiiinda overpowered in every other respect too. True, this ruleset would prevent some of the "was it...

I've been trying to reproduce it using those conditions and have failed. There may not be a button input that allows for an instant grab break, but it would be nice to learn the nature of this phenomena nonetheless. This is the only phenomena that I've seen in brawl, thus far, that the...

DI-ing away from the stage and recovering lower is a pretty good idea. Like mentioned above, MK can only go so far before shuttle looping to his doom and looking fairly dumb. MK can reverse shuttle loop but in order to hit you with it and recover he needs to be further away from the edge than...

You know, now that I think of it... most, if not all, of the grab breaks I've seen were near the edge. I will check this out soon to see if I can replicate the results under these conditions.

I was thinking about the relative weight thing. especially since the times I did it (on accident) was MK vs DDD. And the times that my friends did it was DDD vs Pikachu. In both instances the smaller character (MK, Pikachu) were the escapees. BUT. There's this video...

I think thats been mentioned. but everything is worth mentioning more than once. We should also remember not to try to shield two nado's in a row. MK can extend the tornado and keep relatively low to the ground, which means he can pound your shield with a near full tornado... then if you...

My friend and I are working on this issue a bit. If your character has good out of shield options, its a good way to punish MK's who like to Dsmash more than once in a row. I think this has already been mentioned by M2K, but there isn't much positive feedback going on here so I'd like to...

Herg. I've been trying to replicate this on 1x, 1/2x and 1/4x speed without the addition of chain grabbing (to avoid the hitstun complication -- for now) and I can't seem to get any results. I'm using DDD as the grabber and MK as the escapee. I've tried inputting the command (A, i think...)...

That does make sense. Every time I had it happen the "release" sound occurred at the about same time that the "i grabbed you" sound happen. I can't seem to figure out weather or not pressing A can be interchanged with jump or not. My friend and I are still giving this a go at 1/4 speed. I...

Well, I was hoping to spark some conversation about it and possibly bounce ideas about how it works. My friend and I have been chain grabbing each other with DDD across FD for hours trying to figure out what button might do this, or when to input the command. This all became very interesting...
