~ Dair Pummel.

[the5souls]

I've re-purchased Brawl (yay for Circuit City).
So I've returned to my experimenting trying to expand on Snake's Meta-ness.



I know you guys hate reading and prefer visuals... so here's the video!

The Dair Video



How to do:

1) Make sure opponent is grounded, body touching floor.

2) Get close and short-hop your Dair.

3) Land the first 3 kicks ONLY. DO NOT LAND THE LAST KICK!

4) Fast fall on your THIRD KICK (timing might need work).

5) The person will be knocked into the air slightly, and in the mean time, you're recovering from your landing lag.

6) Short hop dair again, and repeat.



Now, your opponent will DI somehow. You may have to move along with your opponent, following the character to whichever way she/he DIs.

Also, I do not believe this works on heavier characters, because they will not be able to be knocked into the air as effectively on the third kick.

And even if it isn't completely possible to lock the opponent into a cycle of Dairs, this is an excellent way to rack up damage like nothing.

Enjoy!

can be DIed out of and teched when they land

still pretty cool and a good mixup

 

[UltimateRazer]

This can be very useful if you follow your opponents DI.

Down grab -> Dair Pummel...yeah that sounds sexy.

 

[ssbbFICTION]

It actually has THAT much hitstun?

 

[Shadow_of_Link]

If you can follow up with another dair, does that mean you can follow with other ground moves (such as Utilt)?

 

[DemonFart]

i can only assume so...

 

[indianunit]

This is actually a really good find. I'll make sure to try to put this into my snake game.

 

[sMexy-Blu]

Epic Snake Dair Pummel is epic...

 

[Taeran]

Epic Snake Dair Pummel is epic...

Figures, it's in the title.

I think most people would figure out that they need to DI the hell out pretty fast, however, if this leads into ground moves then this could be pretty good, I didn't realize the hit stun on this was so ridiculous

edit: just did some minor testing, I think 3 hits of dair FF to ftilt and utilt works provided that they don't tech it, still trying to see if I can get anything more useful out of it but at the very least dair to ftilt is 8% more than just finishing the dair, my favorite roll punisher just got better, gotta do more testing on this later to see what characters it works on

 

[istudying]

Wow impressive, this could be so usefull is u opponent is in shock and doesn't DI.

 

[UltimateRazer]

Wow impressive, this could be so usefull is u opponent is in shock and doesn't DI.

You can follow their DI, though.

 

[magikguy]

thats is crazy looks great since i use dair alot

 

[Toneh]

LOOL too funny. ill have to try it out later

 

[Sago]

no way dose it have that much hitstun im sure mk could up b out

 

[Anth0ny]

Wow, if this actually works during a match with DI and upb spam, Snake just officially got the 60-40 on MK.

 

[Azgner]

Well, I've never thought of using another Dair again(can´t they tech when they hit the ground? They might not be expecting to not be hit by the last kick, so they got the first one, but the second?), but It creates openings to use ground moves.

 

[zeionut]

thats funny, i found this out a month ago and didnt really tell anyone except my friends and bladewise, but after the 3rd hit i do sumthing different...

 

[PKSkyler]

I think that meta could up b out if, but it sounds great to use at least once, then lead into an ftilt or utilt if they are in killing range.

 

[Ken Neth]

This is a very good find. I'm definitely going to be trying this out next time I play. Nice work.

 

[lanky_gunner]

I used to do this when I was new with Snake. It's a pretty good combo to use if you are successful with it.

I haven't used it recently to help develop my nade game, but I have to say to those it's a good thing to use when your opponent is caught unaware.

 

[Exia 00]

I cant get it to work o.o

I assume it's my timing.

 

[Hax]

can characters break out of this or not?

 

[Ken Neth]

I'm assuming characters can smash DI out of this if they tried. If not, they can always just tech it to get out of it.

 

[Joker490Frozen]

Yeah it seems you can just DI or up-B out off, but is one of those moves that will work once, then you won't do it again till next tourney or so XP kinda like when people just lay down after Snake's down grab(way back), then you stick them with a C4, or any other move, point being people learn to just move away, so it could work on an actual match.

 

[Tanuki]

i just need to work on my timing, ive only pulled it off like twice but its useful, its good for mixing with other attacks and what not

 

[Traviz]

yup gonna agree that its a good mixup, and useful on people who dont really have the timing down for teching

 

[iRjOn]

Wow this is sex
o.o

 

[Bakithi]

Nice, 5souls. I like it.

Good ****, son. :D

 

[Excelsus5100]

Impressive. I'll be sure to try this out sometime.

 

[Ken Neth]

I've found this doesn't work as well as I thought it would in an actual battle. My friend's falco is able to punish me for it before I can get out of my lag

 

[TwentyTwo]

While you can't actually dair pummel, using dair and canceling the 4th hit still has a good amount of hitstun, but you can cancel into jabs, ftilt, utilt. Not guaranteed, but most likely they'd be trying to DI dair, so you'd have a good shot of them not shielding. Nothing to spam, but could be useful.

 

[Ken Neth]

The Falco I was playing is top in state though, so he doesn't have any bad tendencies like that. If he can get out of it, he gets out of it. Well, most of the time.

 

[PsychoMidget]

It should be called the Crombo Dair Pummel variation 13

 

[Bakithi]

...I don't get it.

._."

 

[.AC.]

you can DI up.
