Bucket still stops momentum

[Spooty]

I haven't done extensive testing, but from the few matches where I tried to get this to happen and see, pulling out your bucket still completely stops your momentum if you've just been hit hard and are about to die. Still takes about 1.5 seconds to be able to pull it out. Not sure if you can nair bucket like in brawl.

So yeah. Buckets still save lives.

I already discovered and talked about this in the main G&W thread. But yes, you can use vectoring + Bucket to stop your vertical momentum
