any dair spammers?

[Velda]

I love spamming kirbys air attacks and I wanted to ask, does anyone spam kirby's dair?

 

[Kewkky]

Hmm.... Not me. In fact, I barely ever use it... Maybe to "spike someone", but that's about it. I usually find other attacks much more effective than dair when trying to rack up damage. :/

 

[Velda]

really? Wel i go above, dair them, right when they get back up, air them, etc, etc.

I have come to find that if you time your dair right, when you land there will be NO landing lag and the person who just got hit will have JUST enough hitstun(omg it actually exists!) for you to do a fsmash without them being able to do anything about it(for best results c-stick). It's a great combo that has yet to fail me if I time the dair right. =]

Yep! I love doing that. Dair flows perfectly into Fsmash assuming you don't attack the wrong way. It's a real good way to finish someone because dair is a lot easier to land than fsmash.

The d-air is one of Kirby's most spammed moves. You can get easy kills with this move at a very low percent if you done it right.

When the opportunity is good and I won't/ can't be punished for it

Doesn't kirby's d-air have no landing lag b/c it auto-cancels?

 

[feardragon64]

Not every time. I think it cancels about 75 to 80% of the time because the window in which it auto-cancels is so large. However, I think if you start it up too early and are still finishing up the last one or two hits, there will be some landing lag. But that is something you should double check.

yes, dair is extremely good. and you dont have to worry about it getting weaker, cuz you just do it to rack up damage and set up for other attacks anyways. its really good. also, jump you a$$ out there and start spiking some fools.

jump 5 times, even :D dair chase them to oblivion!

 

[T-nuts]

if theres an air move i spam, its bair. nothing feels better to me than landing that perfect bair on a shielding opponent that knocks them just barely too far away to shield grab you, but they try it anyway, and then you land and immediately short hop bair them while their shield's down. also, i use bair out of shield all the time.

but yeah, dair is still awesome.

 

[kenja0]

It's also a great edge-guard too. When your opponent is on the edge, most of their options of getting back on the stage are pretty much useless against a d-air because if you control where you hit them, you can always send them back off the edge with the ground hitting frames.

If they edge-attack, most of the time you won't get hit because you're above them when you start the d-air. They end up off the stage and you can spam another
If they edge-attack after 100%, the d-air should be a little bit later.
If they edge-jump, they get spiked.
If they fall, you can grab the edge after d-air.
If they roll, they will be vulnerable and get knocked off.
If they just climb up, they're dumb.

 

[Kiwikomix]

The only time I don't use dair is if I'm juggling with uair or pushing people toward the edge with bair or fair. And I think someone said earlier that its damage doesn't really ever go down since it's 1% per hit in the first place. Kirby's best aerial, hands down.

 

[SLIVRphantasm]

i dont like spamming with kirby it makes people not wanna play with me.

I'd have to agree with h1ro. I've only been playing Brawl since it came out and I've been following up on his, Timmy's, and SD's videos on Kirby since I main him. If you want to get as good as they are, do what they do. I've been following that theory and it's helped improve my Kirby a lot.

 

[paSTAR]

I use dair a lot. It's easy % ranked up and very little lag, so most of the time you can get a forward smash in there right after.

But I have a hard time using it to spike people. Maybe it's just certain characters.
