2 hitter quitter; Wigz's guide to Sonic

[ToastMAN]

As you know Sonic has no range, weak priorty, weak attack, yadda yadda...

In order to play sonic effectively you really have to hit the person once or twice and then run away...Also, spamming the Side-b, down-b and dash attack will do nicely

Some nice 2 hit combos:

Up throw to up air: does around 20% and works best at low % (Opponents)
Dash attack to up tilt: towards the end of the dash attack if you manage to get behind the opponent you can do an uptilt:

Side b - midair: if you dont know how to do this...leave

homing attack to back air: well, you have to miss with homing attack and hit a platform, if your opponents a noob you can hit him with a back air

Kill moves: Fsmash: best of all...
DSmash: Good at high %
Back air: can even hit them moving forward, but kills at high % also sweeting spotting it helps
Homing Attack: at highg % and you have to sweetspot

as for survival i hardly use the up b or homing attack, i think it works best if you do a side b, immediatley jump, and then do a side b again

Nothing that the whole Sonic board doesn't know.

Pretty full of fail. The combos aren't combos, and Sonic only does hit and run to certain characters. Others, he is on top of them the whole time, pressuring, and others still, he's playing campy as ****, waiting just outside their range for them to mess up before zooming in and punishing.

You're really hyping up homing attack waaaaaay too much. Fair, uair, and nair are all more reliable for killing/gimping than that is. Utilt and usmash can kill at about 130% on Halberd/Corneria/etc. Sonic's able to keep pressure up the whole time. He's one of the few characters that doesn't just camp for the whole match.

I wasn't aware that the homing attack even had a sweet spot :x
You sure about that one?

lol, yea there is no such thing. You can hit the attack at a better angle than other times, but there is no real "sweetspot".

 

[ToastMAN]

lol i dunno...all i know is that ive killed people with it by hitting them in a matter that felt like a sweerspot

Before we go on.....do you even know what a sweetspot is?

 

[Doc Chronic]

Captain Falcon and Zelda are chars with sweetspots (fairs). You really "feel" the sweetspot connect if a character has it....I never get that sensation with his homing attack, therefore no sweetspot. IMHO.

Oh...I see now....my bad, I didn't think of it that way before.

 

[FrostByte]

Probably the opponent DI-ing away.
I think you should take the "guide" out of this thread.

 

[ToastMAN]

Lol it was more a joke guide, i d care less if it gets deleted Sonic is only an alt for me...a friendly alt

 

[InterimOfZeal]

Don't waste people's time with joke guides. That just screws over scrubs.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't, else the guide would have some sort of humor, even if it was in bad taste.
You're just saying it was joke thread now, because of all the negative feedback it received (and deserved).

 

[Spin Dashie]

It seems you tried to go a bit in depth with this guide for it to mean a joke to you. Like Zeal said, it'll confuse those who hardly know how to use Sonic. Post a guide for your main, and the Sonic mains on this board will take care of our own guides.

The only joke in this thread is you. Yes, it matters - if you're not capable of intelligent discussion, please leave =o

You see, Toasty?! You see what you've done?!

LOL good one

 

[Johnny Smash]

Doesn't seem like the most horrible info, not anything groundbreaking though. You guys are mean!

 

[Johnny Smash]

And maybe the "sweetspot" of the B attack is actually that you just charged it? As far as I know holding the B attack longer makes it go farther I haven't really though about the knockback though.

edit: actually i don't know if this is true i read it on gamefaqs though

 

[InterimOfZeal]

****, I was hoping Johnny Smash was the infamous SSB64 player.
