Anyone else do this chain grab?

[shadyf0o]

I hesitate to call this new. If I could figure it out after such a short time playing ICs it's most likely not, but I don't see people doing this. Does anyone out there incorporate this CG in their gameplay?

As I down-throw, I foward smash with nana, then regrab. I do it three times before following up with regular CGs in the vid. It only works at lower percents. As you can see in the vid, I messed up the last one. I think that might be it's limit, but I'm not sure. It might work better/longer on other characters besides MK.

You can only do it once (maybe twice?), because they'll get out, but it's good at 0 if you happen to get the grab in that spot.

 

[shadyf0o]

Good to know I guess

This actually might be really good since you can get on the damage quick by doing dthrows then you'll have enough time past like 40% to start infiniting.

Yeah, that's how I was thinking it could be useful.

i dont think you'd be able to buffer the nana fsmash along with the dash grab without making popo dash attack or something stupid.

just guessing, i havent tried it. i will later today

It's doable. If three are possible (to get to ~45%), then that's a guaranteed infinite from a running grab, and quite an easy one.

You still have to shield holding Z in between, better solo cg all the way to the ledge then reverse solo cg until 40. Shield to shieldrop=free mashouts. Notice how he always shield or grab in between.

Whats the reverse solo cg

It's basically pivot grabbing them in place.

Oh. I remember seeing something like that with Bowser. How fast do I have to do it? What are the specifics?

Does it work like Falco's pivot CG?

It's a simple as dash forward and immediately back and pivot grab, the timing is really strict.

Do I run through them and pivot grab?, or do I do this motion on my controller: (assuming opponent is on right) Down (for dthrow), right, left, right+z. Like I do a mini dashdance in front of them?

Yeah, it's like a mini dash dance in front of them, not through them like falco.

fyi you can instant pivot grab

hold left, cstick right+z

10 frame pivot grab from standstill

Does this work for the reverse solo CG? o.o

i tried it and i found just buffering a pivot grab the normal way was easier

also i dont think this works on most characters <_<

 

[r3d d09]

i hope it works with sopo. that'd be broken. ha.

i guess i should look at the IC boards more often, and instead of the threads i've subscribed to.
