I don't know how useful or obvious this is, but vs a Mega Man if you get stuck with a Crash Bomber the bucket will absorb the entire explosion and fill the bucket completely. The resulting oil, however only does 18%. Not much for offense but nice if you don't want to take shield damage or the 8%.

Not much to discuss about, mostly just informative, but maybe you will

I guess this gives the bucket a practical use against Megaman other then punishing him for poor forward smash usage.

That's neat. I mostly use Mega Man right now in this game. I'll have to be careful not to use it too much against Game and Watch players, or keep my distance.

Any form of explosions go into the bucket now.

Useful for sticky bombs, bombchus or any character relying on explosive attacks.

I fought a very genre-savvy Mega Man who filled up my bucket with Crash Bomb on purpose so I couldn't absorb Charge Shot.

The problem was ,of course ,that he filed my bucket on purpose .

Even the minimum power bucket isn't something you can just shrug off in like Melee, but a lot of people don't seem to be aware of that. It still hits about as hard as a smash attack, only with a two frame start-up.

On a side note, is there anything G&W's up smash can't negate other then Final Smashes? He can tank even a fully charged PK Flash without a scratch if it's timed properly.

the point is to not keep your distance, keep close to G&W as megaman because most of your projectiles are energy based
