up smash edge guard

@:16 and at 2:06

im most intrested in the second one on falcon's up-b

if it works its sick

looking at it again the other falcon up-b'd a little high

idk

 

[CableCho57]

yeah the opponent just needs to sweetspot the edge

 

[tubes]

I'm looking at the hitboxes of upsmash and comparing it to uptilt atm and I'm gonna say no. At least not if they sweet spot correctly. Doesn't meen never use it I mean if you know there gonna Illusion into it and it'll kill why not? Uptilt seems superior though.

 

[young wus]

i believe it work!

 

[skyheart]

it only works if your opponent sucks at sweetspotting. But for me the upsmash on fox forward be works best of FoD. maybe its something about the edge? or the foxes i play just dont know how to forward b to the edge right? but yea it's worked a couple of times for me. I wouldn't put too much faith in it though

This will undoubtedly spark a new revolution of edgeguarding with Falcon.

there are better uses for the u-smash. I dd/move back and just pull it out. It's like a wall, and when you hit it, it's a killer combo starter. You can use it when edgeguarding at low percents, by throwing a fastfaller off the stage and then try to catch their double-jump or illusion with it.

 

[Scar]

it works if the opponent doesn't sweetspot

utilt works even when the opponent sweetspots

ultimascout is a crazy dude

 

[skyheart]

no jonadiaper, no

 

[condemned_soul]

yeah i had it done to me before......freaking suck dude

 

[Chuz]

yeah i've done it a few times myself

If you're pretty sure they are gonna try to illusion past you, or miss sweet spot, upsmash can lead to a Knee alot easier than a Uptilt can. But, Uptilt covers both options (Although slower than upsmash)

that's my experience with it.

Btw, since you wondered about falcon. What about Upsmash vs Ganondorf's up+B? >.>
