I guess what GAWes said about Brawl being more character tech based ,rather then universal tech based, is turning out to be right.
Quick! Someone find something like this with Ike!

Edit: These come in fast...

I still say Klaw Hopping
On another note: 2007 makes a point. Even if this is perfected, it will find some fluke. Like how hard it is to pull off the infishine in Melee. I say Pikmin and Olimar will own this.
Or at least make it less useful.

Peach? What's so broken about her besides the ability to float and such?

Playing melee and smash ultimate
This is why all glitches should be banned from competitive play.
This is why nubs don't decide what gets banned.

This is looking to be a very useful tactic for bowser... probably make it up to high tier with this now. But unless it ends up being even more broken than we think, it will be by no means necessary to ban it.

I didn't know Koopas and Pokemon could cross breed. With Bowsercides and infinite jumps Bowser seems to be a broken character.

Her Gliding Toss.
While anyone can do it, but I'm assuming with items off.

Diddy can do it too with the bananas, but your right it's not that broken. Yet.

Edit time...

I don't remember anyone suggesting that...

There are better names than "Klaw Hopping" too. I'd say just give it a rest, if people like the name then it'll catch on. No use forcing it upon everyone.

klaw jump cancel

thats what this is, the end.
Sounds like you use the Koopa Klaw to Cancel a Jump
sounds Like wavedashing, cept with a Koopa Klaw.
Therefor, name failure.
And then everyone will complain and kill you
*closes book*
The end of your story

Jesus you even put it in your sig...

What's the name even matter, no one thinks of the name creator when you say a AT anyway.

Are you even a Bowser main Ulti?

Wrong. Sounds like canceling the Koopa Klaw WITH a jump, WHICH IS WHAT IT IS!
Give it a rest, man.

How is this particularly useful?
In a word: mind games. Well that's 2 words.....
Just read the thread.

@Xengri:
I split it between Mario and Bowser. I'm pretty Good with Bowser. I know all the goods that Bowser can do. One of the Main reasons I subsrcibed to Gimpy on Youtube. Watch Bowser Ownage.
Plus, I had a monstrocity of a Banner in my sig, and I needed something to override it. So until I find something better....
:p

Distributing justice 24/7.
did testing just now stops working off level sorry bowser recovery is not too good. and makes me think such a thing was planned in development if he has infinite jumps above the stage but not while hovering over " the abyss"

Okay, this is a great technique, but on the scale of brokenness, it's pretty low. From my understanding, Bowser needs to cancel before he lands, so it's not like he can just do this out to the kill line and back with some WoP. This just gives bowser an option that other characters don't have, and makes him a better character, IMO. Good on him.

I got the perfect name now!
"The inf. jumps with Bowser's Koopa Klaw Cancel that people want to name so badly that we cannot finalize the name so we are just calling this"
See, everyone wins!

As kool as this looks, i still think once brawl comes out this glitch will become seemingly useless. He's jumping too high for it to be as useful as a shorthop and the fact that its a cancel means that to hit someone with it you have to not try to cancel. (or at least i would assume) Therefore missing a hit with the claw would result in hitting the ground and having full lag when you hit the ground. Sure its really neat, and i could see it being useful for a speedy retreat if your about to get a marth tipper in the face from a jump attack gone wrong, but it just seems like this is more razzmatazz than a really useful technique. If used against an actual person rather than a peach just standing there doing nothing, im assuming this klaw jump cancel wont be useful. To all the flamers out there they may jump me for not thinking this will be a broken move that makes bowser god tier, im just saying what i think after watching the video. For all i know this COULD be a crazy technique, but from what i see this isn't going to be for bowser what wobbling was for IC. This looks like a fun little move and nothing more.

Wow, this is great :psycho:

I dont think think this is enough to ban bowser though, but it definitely pushes him up a few dozen notches

No problem lithos lol, on a serious note i think the easiest thing to compare this too is samus' superwavedash which is a much harder technique that is almost useless except in certain situations but given to the right person near anything is possible not to mention fun to watch. I seriously doubt many Bowsers will focus their entire strategy around this, but will find effective uses that will directly result in boosting bowser as a character.

I agree that We will have to wait and see this used to really determine whether it will prove to be a meaningful technique, but I like to see the cup half full, and this tech seems to have lots of application.
