Diddy Kong Video Guide Covering Every AT

I started on a project a while back of me making a guide of every AT, trick, or tibit Diddy has. I made some videos and then took a break and recently started it again. I'll have it all on my youtube channel in a playlist so it's easy to find and watch all of it. I need people to remind me which ones I'm forgetting, so far I've only done ones that have come to my head immediately so I obviously don't have all of them yet, but I'd like to keep a list. This is what I have so far, remember it can be any little tibit about Diddy, as insignificant as it may be (Note that I'm not going to record the jebus dribble as it is too advanced for any player to do consistently except jebus himself), I'm still trying to get it recorded:

-Glidetossing
-double dribbling
-single dribbling
-pivot dribbling
-difference b/w monkey flip and monkey flipkick
-difference between monkey flip attack and monkey flip jump
-monkey flip kick edge cancel>dair
-buffered monkey flipkick
-jumping out of buffered monkey flipkick
-combos out of buffered monkey flipkick
-smash monkey flip vs regular monkey flip
-DHGR>footstool and all chars it works on
-Opponent being able to move while in diddy hump
-smash banana vs regular banana
-popgun cancelling into glidetoss, shield, roll, spotdodge, airdodge, nothing
-b reverse popgun
-momentum shift popgun
-z dropping out of popgun
-z dropping
-dodge dropping
-smash throws vs regular throws
-banana slide on slopes
-fsmash with banana in hand
-dtilt with banana in hand
-z drop banana to regrab with aerial
-down-b aerials with banana in hand
-banana caught with aerials to aerials with banana in hand
-instant tossing to throw bananas after down-b or catching bananas with aerials
-instant tossing (in air and from ground)
-dash attacking to the edge of the stage and banana plucking carries over momentum
-dash attacking to edge of the stage and reverse banana plucking carries over momentum
-DACUS
-BDACUS
-Usmash lifts diddy's hurtbox off the ground
-Utilt lifts diddy's hurtbox off the ground
-jump cancel tossing
-weak glide tossing
-bananas do damage based off how fast they're going
-pivot tossing
-double banana lock
-single banana lock
-jab lock
-ftilt lock
-fair lock
-bair lock
-wall jumping
-wall jumping to aerial
-wall jumping to side-b
-wall clinging
-side b from edge to stage
-side b from edge away stage to banana pluck
-"Special K" edgeguard
-rising reverse peanut gun cancel from the edge to banana pluck
-reverse peanut gun cancel from edge to banana pluck, z catch and recover
-rising/fast falling up-b
-barrel cancelling
-barreling into objects
-up-b heavy armor
-reflected barrels
-uthrow freeze glitch


Need to add (things I listed off the top of my head):
-peanut lock
-all infinites
-dthrow stage spike
-BOAT combo
-boost pivot grab
-z catching
-during up-b you can't DI/get stage spiked
-True grab release combos
-Character specific trip frame data stuff
-edge slip animation
-DI/momentum cancelling
-Spinning banana on edge of slopes
-banana at the edge>dair combo
-banana lock > footstool> barrel spike
-banana at the edge > barrel spike
-Banana at the edge> push off > barrel spike

Note that I'm not really looking for strategy or combos. I'm looking for tricks, ATs, and tibits
that Diddy can do, maybe a trick that involves a combo (like edge cancelled monkey flip kick to dair). I know I'm probably forgetting some stuff in that list, but it's just some stuff off the top of my head that I thought I need to add still. Post any ATs, tricks, or tibits you have about Diddy here no matter how insignificant it is and I'll try to get videos of it. Even if you look at the list and it says like "infinites" and you're like "hmm, I know a certain infinite, but he probably already knows about it since he has 'infinites' listed" post it anyway as I might not have it.



Another note is that I need a video of the Down throw stage spike because the user who had it up before has taken it down. For those of you who don't know what it is, Diddy can Dthrow an opponent at the edge of the stage and get their opponent to get stage spiked on the side of it instead of coming back onto the stage. Right now the only documented stage it works on is SV and on Ganon and Falco, but it could (and probably) works on other characters and stages. Note that it was theorized it had something to do with the opponent's DI being very specific before. If someone can get a video of this then that'll be awesome.





My first batch of videos are done, correct me on some wrong info on here, I know when I watched them when they weren't on youtube there were a few things that I wrote that were wrong, but haven't corrected them yet. Guaranteed you'll learn something new when watching these.

Diddy's slide animation goes lower than his crouch animation. Same with his shield pointing downward.

well I have most of the videos already recorded, just need to upload so I can do both, but I'm actually going to wait until I'm back at college after Apex to upload it cuz they have better internet speed so it'll be faster for me.

A sticky definitely awaits once this thread gets going. Do you need any help recording stuff?

well like I said before, I don't have my capture card with me right now so it'll be a couple of weeks before I get it back so I guess I'd prefer you to upload it yourself.

I think it would just depend on the background of w.e stage I'm playing. Like FD my font looks fine for some parts, but bad for others, I'll keep it in mind when I get more videos up.

Excellllent work! If you wouldn't mind, I'd like to put links to these videos in their appropriate sections of the Kongpendium when there isn't a tornado

EDIT: Also, it's stickied now

Sorry for the bump but a barrel trick that your video didn't cover is that on thin stages that your opponent can attack you through from underneath (such as Halberd) you can spike them with upb.

I haven't tried this out but if you tilt your shield down to avoid getting poked this might work OOS.

Yeah, Barrel Spiking to stop Sharking, that is a good one. I'm always conflicted as to whether it's actually safe or not, but I've never thought of doing it OoS after angling your shield down, that could work well.
