    Those current buffs listed won't even be noticeable honestly. The only thing I really want at this point are better counter activation frames.

    Tips with fastfall up air?

    If your opponent isn't DIing you can just hold down on the control stick, that way you can input your UAir and immediately fastfall without too much timing. The most important thing to get used to are the setups though, you can set it up from a dash attack pretty easily from low to mid % on most...

    In the long run I would suggest switching, some movement techs seem alot easier using the GC controller as opposed to the pro controller. This is coming from someone who used the pro controller since release basically, i've never been able to b-reverse my shurikens or wavebounce them with the...

    Muscle memory from practice, that's why you should practice it on shorter characters since the timing is more strict.

    So I just recently bought a GC controller after having used a pro controller for months and i've come to the conclusion that SOMEHOW it's infinitely easier to do wavebouncing and b-reversing with a GC controller than it is with a pro controller. Why? Iunno... Gonna have to start using the GC...

    What would you change about Greninja?

    I've only had one instance similar to that, but the reason it didn't hit is because I UAir spiked and they bounced above the hitbox.

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

    1: Landing it consistently just comes down to practice, practice using it on shorter characters the most. 2: Just empty hop fastfall constantly if you're not being approached too much, it'll keep them guessing. 3: Try to retreat with it instead of approaching, only approach with FAir if you can...

    Yeah. Hm... I found it easier doing my method, but I guess the length of the slide for the jumping method will always be consistent since this relies on walking animation speed than initial dash animation length.

    I've already discovered that months ago, there's an easier way to do it. You can do it straight out of runs without having to jump at all but with this method you can't do a standing grab or special (if you even can with the jumping version). This method makes use of Greninja's (or any other...

    As far as I know you couldn't UpB after a ledge bounce in any version.

    Official Mysterious Arsenal - Greninja Information & AT Thread

    Not practical for everyone but I dash dance with my right hand on the control stick. I have very quick hand dexterity though so it's easier for me to put my right hand back in place faster than other people might.

    It'll probably be easier to just :GCD:+:GCA: instead of :GCCD:, your thumb will have to move further to hit the c-stick than the A button.
