I said about a week back that I would release all the tech that I've been hiding under my skirt for some time. My first post talked about slip edges, but only grazed the surface of it. The poll is the list that I've selected to start with, and the order I reveal will be based on popularity. The poll closes monday and I'll be putting out content weekly every monday following, covering the various subjects. Some subjects will take longer than a week to finish since I will be giving stage-specific information as well and when applicable, video.

Slip edges for me.

I feel like I have bomb combos and ledge options pretty well covered (though not perfected, so there's still stuff to learn) but I know nothing of slip edges.

Bomb combos. I think there are hidden follow ups for far away bombs. Maybe drop bomb, bair into the bomb, RCS?

Assuming slip edges are prattacks.

Slip edge is where you push someone off a grabbable ledge with a move that has minimal knockback, which sets your opponent up to make huge mistakes. Jab 1 is a prime example.

Bair into bomb is in fact a combo, so is every other move in your kit (move into bomb into follow up.) This will probably be the hardest to accurately give information for.

With Bomb combos maybe a way to setup into them? Other wise I'm with everyone on choosing Slip edges.

slip edges sound intriguing to me, i already use bombs excessively and developed bomb comboing on my own. Im curious to see new ideas, any of these would bring a new tool to my small but growing toolkit of understanding when it comes to Samus.

So yes, slip edge = prattack. These are pretty cool and pretty strong for Samus, just like you said, mostly off jab 1.

Prattack is pushing someone into a tech situation from a platform.

The list of moves that can cause an effective slip edge are jab 1, jab 2 (low percent), sour spot and regular ftilt, cs at various low charge levels, and bomb.

Yeah missle works in the same way it works in a jablock situation but it isn't really reliable or effective.

You can cover getups on the reverse side of the stage with a homing missile and run it down as it explodes. You cover roll and jump get up on reaction and let homing missile cover normal getup. On no getup I jump over the ledge and RCS back toward the stage which covers everything but ledge drop, now they have no ledge invuln.

Speaking about Samus tech, do you Tonetta or anybody else know about this?

It's at the min 2:32, Depth cancels his jab to quickly repeat the first hit three times. Do you know how to do it?

0:29 & 1:08

There are 3 Methods:
- Jab > Flick the left Stick downwards > Jab

- Hold the left Stick diagonally down/back and press Attack > wait for AISA Frames while still holding the left Stick and Jab

- Hold the left Stick down and flick the right stick diagonally down/back or straight back to Jab (C-Stick set to Attack)

That's crouch cancelled jab, set your c-stick to attack, crouch then hit/flick diagonally on the c-stick.

Dang, this is pretty hard. I'm trying the first two methods since I'm very used to smash attacks on my right stick and I think I can do it every now and then but I'll have to practice again and again. Thanks a lot.
