Didn't know that about Lucario. I guess it's usefulness is pretty character-dependant. I agree with the input thing.

It's deceiving since it's Fox. I've done it. I have perfect pivoting down and I've tried this. It's no different than a regular perfect pivot, but since Fox's perfect pivot is already pretty long (range) crouching makes it seem as though he is sliding backwards rather than simply perfect...

Lol the amount of despair in this thread before the shield stun increase was mentioned :P Anyways, this patch is a significant buff to Marth overall. Tippers matter more now, increasing shield stun even more than a standard hit, hopefully leading to more shield pressuring and follow ups (I...

Sakurai took away his sword and, instead, gave him a dagger. Sakurai took away his short-hop double F-air and gave him added landing lag. SAKURAAAIII!!!! In all seriousness, though, I don't think Marth is bad. He's just not as good as he was in previous games.

Was Captain Falcon's D-air always so easy to land in Brawl as it is in Sm4sh? I wanna say Captain Falcon, Mario, Yoshi, Bowser. Quite a few, actually.
