1.1.4 Potentially Game Breaking/Competitively Harmful Glitches

[FamilyTeam]

Pretty sure the leg positioning is purely an aesthetics decision, and the occasional missed grabs require a number of specific qualities that makes it feel not intentional: starting with the fact it has to be backwards, grab low, and be very close to her.
Not only top tiers, and not even a majority of the top tiers are affected.


Something interesting is that I have not seen this "issue" at any important match, and we've got A WHOLE LOT of Bayonetta exposure recently.

Actually, although you whiffing your dash grab against a Bayonetta that's both shielding and has her back against you is ridiculously situational, it can still happen.
This Saturday, my friend was using Bayonetta against his older brother with his Luigi, and that actually happened.
I didn't even know Luigi could miss his grab against Bayo like that, apparently it can. Maybe it's not as situational as we think it is. (It was the only time it happened the entire day, though)

Fix this.

Something kinda similar happens with Shulk's Ftilt. When I placed Shulk at a distance just close enough to hit with the sourspot of Ftilt, I'd hit the bottom pillar of Luigi's Mansion right? Yet the more times I input Ftilt I barely scoot backwards & whiff, & then I'd hit it again maybe once or twice & then I whiff more. I don't get it. .

You're saying this literally 9 posts after I proved it's not true?

Would this make a big impact in doubles?

I feel like there needs to be some testing on who/what can trigger the glitch (only disjointed attacks? Or maybe not?) and if other characters can be frozen. It seems like at times MK was frozen for longer, so maybe the duration depends on how long the projectile was charged? Dunno, but I'll probably test things out later when I have the time. Looks simple enough to replicate anyway.

It doesn't look too big of an issue, he stops for few frames before being launched anyway, it's not like those Brawl/Melee glitches where the opponent froze in place indefinitely.

But Corrin DOES have a lot of glitches/abuses with both Dragon Fang and Dragon Lunge.
