Why in the F*** did it take us so long to find out about the Reversing of Up-B's and mastering them, when we had this video since 2008?

Better yet, why did it take me so long? I have never seen this until now. O-o

He did every type of reverse in this video. DA PHUCK!?

Who is "us"? I think most of us knew about that stuff in 08. I remember when that video was released. I was pretty hyped in fact that SDM was playing our character.

Yeah, that's been known to the ROB boards for a while. Could have sworn there was a vid of it in the video thread or a guide or something. Maybe I'm wrong though.

Yeah, but none of you guys ever used it or mastered it. I have never seen it done in one of your videos/matches, ever.

Yet his Up-B reverses are his most useful techniques, especially in recovering. O-o

I quit shortly after it was discovered and never learned new tech after turn around gyro canceling got discovered. That's my john. lol
Pretty much this.

I stuck around a bit into 09, but by then any motivation I had to "practice" Brawl techs had been destroyed.

I do find it strange at how little it was implemented until the past yr or so.
Same with ledge grabbing.

I'm down. When though? Some of us live in vastly different time zones and our toilets flush the other way.

And lawl at 8bitman.

On a seperate note, while trying to learn how to b-reverse it on the ground I discovered you can dash >pivot > jump and then b-reversal the up-b, which creates this zig zag effect on the up-b. Not useful at all but weird looking. Also up-b has 4 invicibility frames on the ground.

Speaking of all the ROB trixies and Brawl in general, another thread made me think about something I wanted to ask you guys.

What characters did you cycle through before you decided to stick with ROB? :o

Pokemon Trainer, then Lucario, then Diddy, then Zelda, then Game and Watch, then Falco, then finally ROB.

I'll be at a casino for the first time on Saturday, so I won't be able to make the call. :(

I guess I'll get in on this if it's some time after my little bro is asleep. lol

Or if we wait half a month then time won't matter but that's a lot of time for time to matter.

Well, if the 5:30-6:30 pst doesn't fall through, it'll be 7:30-8:30 for us. Maybe you might get lucky. :p

We should probably try to get a time where everyone can come though. Leisha, do you work/are you busy on Saturdays?
