[En.Ee.Oh]

Minty literally.. LITERALLY.. gives horrendous advice more often than he gives good advice, it actually makes me slightly upset.

How do you play the Falco match up? I can't get in.

 

[Player-3]

powershield beats lazers

back roll beats lazers > phantasm

dash attack does under lazers if timed right

nair beats phantasm easily

jump and while ur rising, input a dair on a moving platform!
timing is strict at first but it gets way easier.

OH AND P3 I COULD OF SWEAR I POSTED THAT SOMEWHERE BEFORE !

I play exactly like pierce did in early 2009 friendlies <_<

ugh, i feel like i'm so behind the metagame. lol

 

[Reizilla]

Dash doesn't beat lasers O_o Maybe if the falco times them very wrong. But everything else was good.

No this one I'm positive i actually checked it -.-

 

[Almo]

grab release dair is a real combo. if you don't time it correctly they can uair or shuttle loop, but it does work on humans. lol

 

[Player-3]

dash ATTACK mzdam

it goes under almost all lazer heights besides like silent lazer iirc

 

[Reizilla]

Holy ****. I've been reading things wrong all week >_<

 

[Pierce7d]

Mr. R

You can input ANY action while holding down going through a moving platform to platform cancel. It doesn't have to be a Dair. In fact, I wouldn't recommend using Dair, lol.

it does if you time it right but I wouldn't recommend trying

If you don't hold down, you can just press dair as you pass through the platform and it works the same. I think thats what he's trying to say.


Guys I can't seem to get the fthrow > fthrow > dthrow > dthrow > dthrow > fsmash on any of the spacies! Sooo hard, how do you guys do it? Can I have an exact breakdown of how its done, and what is needed?

 

[Player-3]

fhtrows are easy

the dthrow is kinda hard but you buffer it like , right after the enemy hits the ground

 

[Remzi]

well yea i can do the fthrows >_>

lol, ok, i'll try that. thanks.

*edit: checked it out in frame advance, now its really easy lol

ur right i've tried other aerials i think dair is the most easy one but at the same time the most risky one as well.

idk dair works good enough for me to do it consistently without failing ._.

 

[LordAizen]

How often do you guys do the Foot spike Dair?

 

[_Kadaj_]

You can platform cancel with a light shield which allows you to block upon canceling your animation and landing on the platform

 

[Shaya]

dair is good because it gives you a 5 frame leeway to platform cancel I find.

without using c stick down to 'dair', I can only ever platform cancel to shield... !_!

dair before hitbox comes out auto cancels, and I think you can 'platform cancel' once a character is auto cancel position.

 

[mikeHAZE]

No this one I'm positive i actually checked it -.-

who are you and why are you making me



oh yeah

uhh, i thought light shielding wasn't in this game lol

do you just mean not pressing down L all the way, or is this a typo?

Would you guys be so kind to contribute?

I thought the same thing. Someone please explain.

 

[Blacknight99923]

do you mean powershielding?

lightshielding doesn't exist in brawl

 

[earla]

frame data listed here. is it 100% correct, up to date?

[Blacknight99923]

nothing major should be inaccurate

 

[salsa~]

How many frames do I save using usmash Oos instead of dropping the shield>usmash?

 

[Albert.]

The difference between their shield being up

 

[Lord Chair]

Way to give an inconclusive response.

Shielddrop > usmash takes 19 frames, JC usmash OoS takes 13 frames.

 

[LordAizen]

What's a good secondary for Marth besides Meta Knight and Snake?

 

[Blacknight99923]

falco. snake isn't that great of a secondary since he only semi covers metaknight
otherwise possibly ice climbers

 

[LordAizen]

What are Marth's bad Match ups? I cant' find them in the marth section.

 

[Reizilla]

MK and DDD. Close matchups are ROB, DK, ZSS, Snake and Wolf. Peach, if you're West Coast. Falco and/or MK wreck most of those matchups.

 

[uhmuzing]

MK and Dedede mainly, and then there are some other more evenish MUs to look out for.

Edit: ninja'd.

 

[LordAizen]

So Ice Climbers would be a good secondary then? I don't wanna secondary meta knight lol.

 

[uhmuzing]

ICs handle Dedede, but I don't think they're that great against Meta, who's the bigger problem.
