Hey guys, I was playing around today with Mario, and then I noticed something with his up B. If you do the first hit of up b, usually easy to get grounded, if you tilt the opposite direction on the control stick, Mario will travel there and the up B will only do 1 hit. Im not sure if its known or not but, if it is known, what is it good for? The only time i see its useful is if you are out of jumps trying to recover, you attempt to hit the opponent, with your up B, then move to the direction of the ledge.

Yea, it's known already...Hitting with a Reverse UpB deals exactly 5%/1 hit everytime and it has the most knockback of any hit it deals...


...Or are you talking about something else?

What I mean is that, you do up B, then immediately move the control stick the opposite direcion of where you are after you do the first hit.

The result would be the rest of the momentum of the Up B on your opposite direction.

Already known, though I'm sure over half the Mario boards doesn't read the metagame analysis.

-A regular SJP is a 70 degree angle.
-Holding forward makes Mario jump to a 45 degree angle.
-Holding Up, then back sends Mario up to a 90 degree angle, and actually increases the jump range, to the point where Mario can land at the top Battlefield platform.
-Holding backwards will make a reverse SJP.
It's a B-Reversed SJP. Generally just a neat trick. No serious application.

There is serious application to B-Reversaled SJP actually. The initial hit will still have a hitbox as if you were going in the original direction, so it can actually be used as a retreating move (or manipulated for stage spikes and the like).

Yeah, that's what I was thinking about. Maybe you can save yourself with it after attacking someone offstage/ in a specific area? etc

Reverse Up-B is really awesome on Battlefield.

Actually so is upwards angled Up-B. And I don't use them enough.

And Mario is so awesome on Battlefield I really don't think most Mario players are exactly aware how well the stage works to his advantages.

I generally call this a neat trick and not a serious application. Situational even.

B-reversed SJP has almost no practical use whatsoever. Any kind of "usefullness" it has, however small, is very situational. Honestly, if you are going to do a grounded SJP, it should be OoS.

@Jux: Agreed

I'm pretty sure that's inputting an Up B, then hitting the control stick the other way right after. Mario's fist and the first hitbox should hit the way you're originally facing, then he'll turn and travel upwards the other way.
