That is a very sexy fox. I havent played melee in awhile, actally picking it up again today :p, but that was some rapege. I have been looking at some of the other fox's that say "critic my fox" and I thought that melee was going to the dumps. I had almost lost all faith with these other fox's till i saw your. Brings back good memories. Anyways keep it up that just made my day :)

If you can shine backair on level 9 cpus you can do it on humans because 9's have hella good di a lot better than humans that's for sure. Good **** I have to work on my Fox a hell of a lot more now that was very entertaining =).

shine bair is really easy against humans, they of course CAN di out..but most dont unless you do it a lot
shine turnaround bair is harder but still doable and still works just as well on humans

That shine -> nair was pretty sexy. So was every else that you did, but that opened my eyes the most because I saw OVER 9000!!!! shine -> bair's, so I thought I'd point something else out.

Good stuff. I need work with backward waveshines. T-T Lol, after going through your video again, I just noticed that all of your opponents were spacies. Probably more interesting to watch shinefallers anyways, since everyone else gets comboed by waveshine-->waveshine-->waveshine-->waveshine-->up-smash. XD

Nice vid. Computers have crazy DI. I've done shine-dairs on them, and I think on Bowser I did shine-grab once.

ALL technical foxes need to learn to ledgecancel. It's "hella-sweet". There were a couple of REALLY nice combos you had that you could have finished in dair-bair.

Very nice!

Actually, shine-bair only works if they survival d.i. the shine. They float up like the cpus and get hit by the bair.

Doing it a lot won't make it work any better...if anything, it would force your opponent to smarten the **** up and stop d.i.ing into useless/flashy shine combos.

The vid was cool though. When the very essence of it requires your opponent to **** up d.i. really really badly, you know its not a reliable technique. Take the Ken combo for example, EVVERYONE + their mothers d.i.s the fair survival and gets daired because they get scared ****less when they fly off the edge.

I wouldn't recommend trying those combos on human opponents. Like I said, good vid still.

RaynEx is right about everything,

I'm not sure if positioning yourself to hit with the top of the shine helps, if they DI it correctly...

It actually does help, because if they **** up the d.i., it gets just that much easier. still, whats the point?

In a real match there are many other ways to simply take a stock instead of doing shine bair.

I just tried out the shinebair, and it actually works without DI if you hit the the upper part of the shine. I've done it from an uthrow on peach, falco, bowser and marth (pal) so far but it should work on everyone.
Its hard like **** though, you need to hit with the very tip of the upper part of the shine and time your dj and bair perfectly.... I only get it like 1/20 times >.>

Like I said, its not worth even trying if the chances are that bad.

Just do a bair instead.

Yeah, it's sad when you have no one to play and you just set the CPU's stocks to 99... But cool video.
