Hey fellow puffballs, Bo here. Been thinking about taking puff seriously but I learned that she doesn't have a jab reset like she did in Melee. So no missed tech follow ups to Rest :(

I do wanna know if any of her moves jab lock.

I think falling weak fair has gotten it for me a few times? I'm not sure at what ranges nor if the timing is more stringent than just weak fair.

its sad that the jabs are too stronk for Jab Lock, if she had, I would have abused it for years.
especially for easy it is to make the opponent tumble on the ground by either a dash attack, running shorthop Fair or Nair!

Sourspot F-Air and F-Tilt are the only moves she has with a reset property. Nothing realistic, basically. Sourspot F-Air could happen if they miss a tech on a platform, I suppose.

A throw onto a platform at lower percents, I suppose. That's basically it.

I've found something that could work but is super situational. Puffs up tilt can put fast fallers in to a tech situation around 10% and leaves them in a good position to jab lock. But I'm pretty sure they can act out of it before hitting the ground. It could be useful to catch someone off guard tho.

Did you even read what the thread was about? YO]ou randomily said something that has nothing to do with the the topic. xD

The thread is about jab locks, and you are talking about uptilt combos.
Tragic. Well, there are no jab locks anyway. So yeah.

There are jab locks O_o Now I'm convinced you disregarded the thread because the second post says so. Come on man, pay attention to the threads please.
Jigglypuff has a jab lock? This is the first I'm hearing of it.
