I was looking for guides on how to preform the ICs homerun contest but couldn't find a proper guide anywhere. Any info on that would be greatly appreciated!

I was talking to a friend the other day about jab>grab. He said that it seems like the jab is an unnecessary as it just gives the opponent an opportunity to CC into something like shine. My explanation was that the jab gave additional range but other than that I couldn't really think of other...

Hey, I wanted some opinions on two different desyncs I found (new to me, definitely have been done before by others). While doing blizzard ice block desyncs I found that my opponent could land on top of me fairly unpunished even when I'm changing my position with WDs. I found that I can...

With regards to the LED mod, it says yo use a low power soldering iron but would it be okey to use a higher power one? The one i was hoping to use is around 60W.

@Sycorax Thanks! Much appreciated. Like I said in the edit, I tried to check the thread but couldn't decipher a direct answer. EDIT: also, jesus christ that is extensive http://www.meleelibrary.com/

I was brushing up on my use of SDI/ASDI with the specific idea of using it to escape Fox's dair shine tech chase stuff when I thought about how it would apply to ICs. I know that Marth can ASDI against Fox's drill to get a grab but was wondering if that is available to ICs considering their...

I was going over SDI/ASDI and realized that I wasn't 100% sure if the hitlag frames were always a static amount or if they differed with %. I'm assuming they are the same and the only thing that changes with % is the hitstun, is this right? EDIT...

Yeah thats a good one. I found that a throw mixup at the edge is either f-throw if you catch them DIing out or Up-throw dair off DI in. Also back throw suuuper easily chains into another grab on FF at low percent if they arent DIing for it but that one is pretty established at this point Im sure.

"but I mean... you've got Falco combos." Lmao, fair enough. Thats pretty good can't lie. XD Just was wondering. The other day I got to thinking about how the reading of DI works and that the person will pretty much always DI to either 1) Avoid taking damage 2)Avoid going offstage 3)Avoid...

So hype, my god.

I was thinking about it and I realized that I can't really think of a situation where DI mixups are effective w Falco outside off throw mixups and combo-ing at higher percents towards the edge where you can either get a guaranteed edgeguard situation or try to read their DI and get a kill...

Funny that somebody made a whole article about this after I reposted the same initial comment in the Olimar Forum lol.

With the somewhat recent release of the 4BR v.2 Tier List we saw a slight fall for Olimar in the ranks. For those of you who haven't yet read it Myran made a post explaining some of his thoughts about Olimar's placement, room for improvements, and other general thoughts. I decided to repost this...

Your best chances if you actually are hoping for a challenge is to go to the T.O. locals. The two main ones I can think of are Smash on Tap and the weeklies hosted by A&C World. If you are looking for practice partners I suggest joining some Facebook groups such as the Smash Ontario group and...

I think the fact that Iwata actually took part in helping code Melee when it wasn't technically his responsibility really shows how his care for the games he helped make was really from the heart. #ThankYouIwata
