Boost Smash to an Usmash

[classic240]

I've been trying to do a boost smash for quite some time now~
Im only been able to get it like 25% of the time.
Maby you guys am know an easier way to accomplish this move? to a tip?
i know you have to 1) dash - 2) Down-C - 3) Up and Z ... but its not clicking much for me
Anyways, i appericate the assistnace.

are u holding the control stick up at a 45 degree angle?

 

[wasabicheese]

like diagonally upwards i mean

I always do this the same way you do, dash, down-c, up + z, took a bit of time practicing it against the sandbag to get it right, but brawl's online sucks so I guess that's time I had

One thing I was wondering about this though, can it cancel to up-smash the moment it connects no matter what? Like, even if your dash attack's been out for a while and THEN it connects, can it still cancel into an upsmash? I've tried it a tiny bit with no success, but maybe I just haven't got the timing down perfectly yet

I still have the timing a bit off...but hopefully this will help...

I usually can't get it to cancel into up smash after hitting late into the dash attack, but I am probably putting the input for the up smash in too early.

I've never actually got it. Most of the time, I jump at the 45 degree angle.

 

[hmbtnguy]

wait is pressing Z necessary at the end? I know I never press Z and I can still pull it off...

If you have tap jump off, it's extremely easy. All you have to do is put the control stick at a 45 degree angle, hit the C-Stick down, then press Z immediately afterwards. However, with tap jump off, you can't do USmash's out of a shield...

If you're like me, and you like USmashing out of your shield, you'll keep tap jump on. Basically what I do is I hold the direction I'm dashing like normal. Right after I press down on the C-Stick to initiate the dash attack, I push the control stick to the 45 degree angle and press Z.

i'd rather Dsmash out of a shield personally
