Well, because we apparently like to use this as an arguing point, https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DsAoOqhWsAAX7cQ.jpg:large Just read it with "going through the stage from the bottom creating a lost game which should have been won", rather than "hazards creating the uncomfortable situation of...

https://clips.twitch.tv/ImpartialRealLemurOSsloth I would like to add the above to the "ban lylat" discussion. TLDW: You can go apprently through the middle of the stage from below.

Well, you're partially right. The unlocks from classic mode ARE in fact confirmed random. BUT these guys aren't unlocking King K Rool from beating classic mode with Link. They're TECHNICALLY unlocking him from a challenge that yields KKR as a reward for beating boss Ganon for the first time...

After *...looks at watch...* 35 hours of offline competitive (Cincy locale) Roy v Ryu matches now, I think Roy will have the advantage barring some new technology. A properly spaced Nair stuffs most of Ryu's neutral tools when mixed up with pivot dtilts (a la NEO) and jab/grab shenanigans. At...

In order of how often these circumstances in which you would want to wind jab occur: 1) You are waiting for fire tome to respawn. 2) Your opponent is a fatty. 3) Your opponent is RIGHT on top of you when you start jab1. 4) Your opponent happens to spot dodge jab1, then spot dodge jab2. In all...

WARNING: Most situational thing ever. Want to do something hilarious with your Nosferatu book? Sometime mid-match, have used 3 casts so that one more will break the book. Then sit about half a battlefield platform-length away from the edge of the stage, facing mid-stage. Then when they...

That's certainly a usable option select out of down-tilt, but is probably only useful once or twice a match. Anything more consistent than that is going to be mostly input lag or a mess-up of the opponent. I would say doing a RC-grab would be a better option at lower percents because the dash...

You say it turns you around after you grab them? This could actually be incredibly useful for us to punish standard getup off the ledge since our backthrow kills. If it's any faster or has better frame data/range than our standard pivot grab, that is. In your first paragraph, you say...

Thanks, I don't get to watch his stream often. I understand the first point, but Pit's arrows are so good off-stage that theoretically they should more than compensate for any damage benefit that Dark Pit's arrows would have. Interesting choice Nairo, interesting choice.

What I want to know: Why is Nairo using Dark Pit over Pit unless he knows something we don't? Nairo isn't one to play a worse but similar character for no reason. If there really are only 4 differences between them, being Pit has better arrows and a better Side-B, but Dark Pit is edgy and has a...

1) Well the lag-cancel item toss got removed in the latest patch. 2) If you want to practice ATs, practice dash dancing as it IS useful in this game for some characters (not as a movement option but as a mindgame and mixup), practice roll-canceled grabs, turn-around forward smashes, running...

I understand this, but this point is moot because in the 5-stage starter list it gets struck when needed. I don't have it as first in any sort of meaningful list besides it being the stage I decided to type first (note how I didn't say my lists of 5 or 7 starters were in any particular order)...

Hahaha my example section was originally longer until I realized the metagame isn't developed enough yet to have examples strong enough to emphasize my point. Halberd isn't bannable of course, it just isn't starter-material. I would argue the "best" flying platform stage would be the best 7th...
