Bowser Bomb Cancel

[NinjaLink]

I seem to discovered some way to cancel it. I Didn't delve into it but it happened once so imma show ppl.

Here ya go.

Bowser Bomb Cancel

See if anyone can duplicate this. Thanks

Interesting, NInjaLInk, thanks for the find, hope we can make this practical.

I tested it with Bowser (B-Stick) and Snake in training mode, and from what I have seen, the Dspecial is cancelled by ledges that can't be grabbed. To do this, you land the Dspecial so that it hits at the end of the space where Bowser can stand without wobbling on that ledge, and a character shields the attack (doesn't have to be a power shield). I replicated this on all neutral stages and some banned ones, with the exception of Smashville (it's hard to do it by yourself on the moving platform). Very situational, but it does good shield damage with low risk of punishment afterward.

So it has to be shielded? Well I guess the flashier Bowser players could pull it off... Sounds too risky for me though

 

[Hixxy]

I didn't test it with invincibility or super armor, but invincibility should only happen in items or you're being hit with a hit box and if you're hitting super armor, it is or will be a hit box.

Very interesting. It's a shame that it's so situational though.

Yo i figured out how to do it even though others here did as well lol. it INSTANTLY breaks their shield. I tried it today to test out. Each time i landed it. INSTANT BREAK!

 

[Hixxy]

Are you referring to the Bowser Bomb Ledge Cancel or is this something else?

 

[Crzy]

Holy ****...O_o If we can find a way to do this without ledges, it would make Bowser much better without having that landing lag from missing a Bowser Bomb.

WAT? where's the video? NO BUENO now Im interested...

Edit: lol it works now... That is AWESOME. So basically you just have to position yourself right at the edge of a ledge? If thats it then Bowser on battlefield just got 100% aaamazinger.

Neat.

Ill try this out tomorrow.

Seems very strange, and rare-occuring, reminds me of the Pit arrow sticking thing.
If you ask me, It's probably one of those things that happen in Brawl rarely, like that "fall through that one Rainbow cruise place" glitch.

Okay here is what happened I think happened.. You landed there but because Falco power shielded, He remained in the same place and that caused you to be pushed off, because there wasn't enough room.

This is good stuff.

Thats partly true. When i was at the weekly, i was testing it out and i was able to replicate it over and over. Each time it canceled, the person blocking got his shield broken.

 

[Hixxy]

What character was the person using? Also, were they just hold block throughout the duration of the Bowser Bomb, or just to shield the actual hits? When I was testing, I didn't break Snake's shield once.

 

[NinjaLink]

I believe it was DK.

 

[Ref]

It was DK and Yes it broke his shield every time...

 

[Teh Future]

so basically it happens when someone is below you on a platform or edge and you have to land right inbetween them and the edge for it to cancel?

 

[Ceph]

This could be useful, but then again it could be disastrous

 

[mmf]

Now the question arrises, why does DK's shield break and not other characters like Snake? Is it the shape of the character, or how the shield covers so and so's body? This could be kinda interesting to find out.

 

[NinjaLink]

DKs shield is AZZ!!! Marths shield breaker from what i remember from full shield just killed it.

 

[Qckpy01]

Too bad. Otherwise that move would definitely move bowser up in the tiers. Being such a strong attack with no lag.

 

[NinjaLink]

Lets just say its somewhat safe to do it on the edge.

 

[Qckpy01]

That's true.

 

[Sliq]

I'll look into this and try to setup some sort of video guide.
