Ask NickRiddle how to be amazing.

[Kiiro Caballero]

is there anything for a new zss player like me to watch out for such as certain bad habits many new zss mains make

 

[Zero]

Don't utilt all the time

Don't use jab, don't get into that habit now, only to have to get out of it later

 

[Kiiro Caballero]

hmm i see...d smash would prolly be a better option then jab right?, i noticed earlier that i was relying on jab to get me out of enemies that got too close for comfort

 

[Zero]

No. Dsmash does not replace jab. Dsmash has 20 frame startup, which every single character can punish at neutral, at the range that you would ever use jab.

Jab is probably best as an anti air, as the combo is guaranteed in the air, and you have advantage when you cancel into a dtilt.

 

[Kiiro Caballero]

oh okay thanks

 

[NickRiddle]

What is your favorite move in ZSS's arsenal, and what move do you think looks the best?

D-smash is clearly my favorite.
I like how down-taunt looks the most. :D

Don't jab, don't utilt that much, try not to always d-smash twice/thrice/however many times. Do it once as a check swing.

AA jab is too good.

When you footstooled Ally on his first stock of the second match, after a D-smash, what are the properties behind that? I never knew that footstool effects still took place after the D-smash stun. Whenever I did it, they would simply fall out of the D-smash stun. Why was yours so awesome? D:

I d-smashsed him out of knickback from his C4. The game had to register the knockback stopping, and the footstool takingp lace.

[#HBC | J]

what do you do as ZSS if you get a sheild break? I was in a friendly and I was like "uhhhhhh what smashes are good again for killing" lol

I decided Down Taunt + Side B :3 but what's the best?

 

[#HBC | ZoZo]

Dsmash dsmash dsmash > bair
or dsmash dsmash > sideB

depending on staleness.

 

[LoliLovesRain]

dsmash to short hop bair?

 

[NickRiddle]

Fully charged d-smash > d-smash > something.

 

[#HBC | J]

[#HBC | ZoZo]

Fully charged dsmash hardly adds any damage, iirc :/
