Cool technique

I am not sure if this has been posted yet, but there is a cool technique for attacking in the air while holding a bananna. What you do is immediately before attacking, lets say a dair, you press z. You will drop the bananna, then once you spike, you will automatically catch it. I notice that it works best to use the c-stick right after dropping the bananna. Its nice because now banannas wont limit your air game. Once again, I am sorry if this is already know.

it says "a cool technique for attacking in the air". Now does this mean both you and your opponent have to be in the air, or can you be airborne while your opponent is grounded

It means that it doesn't matter where your opponent is. As long as you are in the air, you can do it. We gotta figure out an easier name for this btw...

If someone had posted this idea i'm sorry about that.


Hey people did you know you can suicide with diddy as well, you do the foward B without pushing it twice so that way he will grab on to your opponent but you both must be in mid-air in order to work and as soon as he's getting back to the stage you let him have it that's if you're in the mood for killing yourself.
But more important you have to find the right time to do it so use carefully.

Or you can press up and do something like an uber FSJ, saving yourself and killing him.

I thought that was common knowledge.

As far as z-dropping goes, I usually shorthop -> Throw down -> fair / dair (Which tends to regrab it) -> something else

The z-drop is nice but tends to go a little slowly for my tastes, especially against the people I don't have a clear win against.
