Okay, this is pretty cool combined with side-B, but I can't help but wonder what else it can be used for. B-sticked B is useful too, simply because it gives B some better range and it can make B even less punishable. Too bad you can't charge it. I can't get it to work with Zamus' DB for the life of me, and I'm curious about what it would do to the jump trajectory. Anyone have insights?

Seems pretty impractical, though I would imagine that its possible without rebinding the c-stick. If thats the case, then thats kinda neat. If not, its useless. Also, lol @ reverse neutral b is hard.

After playing around with it a bit I've found that wavebouncing can be done on any forward jump including jumping directly from the edge and jumping into the stage from ring side which means great spacing for the sideB. The distance you go backwards is more or less the same distance you would go backwards if you DI back normally after jumping.

I can see this being a great tech for Zamus players in the future and is differently worth giving up the smash stick.

Edit: On a side note doing a neutral B with the C stick is going to be extremely hard to manage in a fight as it seems that you have to perfectly tilt the stick into one of the unused axis corners.

It could work. I've got a B-stick modified scheme just in case someone finds a use beyond the current limited one. Currently, though, it feels unnecessary.

Ever since it been discovered that the "B stick" can allow you to be pulled backwards while attacking I’ve been using it nonstop in my game play and I've found that not only does it greatly increases my options with Zamus related mind games but it also make her >B much more flexible when it comes to killing.

Anyways the main reason why I'm even post here again is because I've discovered something…small related with the B stick. Basically if you use the B stick while you are tether hanging off the edge you will immediately be pulled up to the edge and if you continue to hold it do a jumping edge recovery as soon as possible. This little advantage cannot be done with any of the other sticks except attack (not smash).

I love B-stick with Zamus. I think I'm sticking with it.

And maybe I'm not understanding what the above poster is saying, but I don't automatically pull myself up when I tether with B-stick. But I can kind of do what you're saying if I double-tap it.
