not sure if anyone has mentioned, but I didn't see it anywhere on the forums or in videos, but I was messing around with samus and remembered that in melee you could cancel and air dodge with the Zair. Well, it still 100% works, you can cancel any part of the dodge with her air dodge. This provides her a way to cover a LOT of ground while invulnerable and still come out with one of the fastest air attacks with a lot of range at any time. not to mention that with her lagless air moves, you can come down with an air attack, jump again, dodge any direction and beam them. Figured this was worth a mention


also while testing I found out that samus' grab->neutral A jab only works very seldomly on bowser. Most of the time it'll look like she's hitting him, but deal absolutely no damage, and have no hit spark

Yea but it has been mentioned a few times (last time by me in one of hylian's posts).
imo it's many times more tricky than regular zairing.

I made a post called "Samus messed up grab" where I cover the inability to tack on damage to bowser (and some other characters) after a grab.
