You can throw forward with a very specific diagonal angle on the control stick. It is too difficult to be consistent, harder than Brawl and it was already somewhat tricky there. I think Link still has a glitch where it's easier to throw it forward. I asked the Link Boards last November and it's still old tech to them.
Yup, Link can throw it in all directions just like in Brawl. We call them bombslides and personally I can do forward consistently. That's the most useful direction of bombslide as this gives enough extra distance for Link to actually true combo on the bomb hits with with Zair, Fair, Nair, Up Tilt, etc.
(Tap) > (Hold) > (hold) + method once at full speed on 3DS. The timing on that is really hard to figure out. Does anyone have a video of the timing so that I have reference to practice with?
With the recent wave of criticism of this thread, I would like to make it perfectly clear that my intentions with this thread was to just get some seemingly new information out and not "make the hottest new AT" or anything silly like that. I thought this was really interesting and new and wanted to see who else could perform the monster slide with similar results. I was ignorant that this has been a tech for some time. I did take some effort to find if it had been recorded elsewhere, but that fell through given the different naming tendancies this AT has surrounding it. I apologize.
And by 'convert' do you mean copy paste what I wrote in the dictionary and then change the words 'bomb' and 'Link' to 'item' and 'character' respectively?
I mean, it is the same AT so the instructions will be similar but I had no intentions of lazily plagiarizing what you'd wrote. You've written some great instructions and all I think I'd add to it would be direct button inputs and maybe some troubleshooting tips learning the AT based on what results come from flubbed attempts. Would you like me to do that? Would you want me to change anything else with the thread?
Of course I would appreciate it if you went to the effort of making the OP technically correct. You are of course free to do so. You don't need my permission to do so. I had actually hoped that by referring you to what I had written in the smash dictionary that you would realise where the OP is wrong or incomplete and fix it. So long as this thread doesn't become a source of misinformation I'd be happy.
Fox Is Openly Deceptive
. I'm aware of the existence of a forward tossing DITCIT and have seen instructions for them, but I'd like more time consistantly doing it myself before I update the OP with instructions
Except this isn't a DACUS, don't call it that.
You're right about Sword having one only that it's a weird slightly delayed timing. Maybe add that info in the OP.
I said it was an item DACUS not that I ever call it that being a Link main.
It's the same inputs which is why people have called it that.... The first time I ever learned of it was through a DACUS video where it was pointed out that you can do a DACUS with items, an item DACUS to slide during the throw.
You're a Link main yeah? Do yourself a favour, forget everything you think you know about this tech because most of it is wrong to some degree (including this thread still), and read the 'bombslide' write-up which can be found here https://smashboards.com/threads/the-comprehensive-guide-to-links-ats.400585/
