Yeah I agree with Kuz, it can't hurt to know. What's wrong with you people?

absolutely nothing
it's just that a lot of other things demand attention and we don't have all day to play practice mode and ponder the intrinsics of smash 64 :3

Except it takes 2 seconds to check whenever you're already playing in training mode.

I haven't played training mode on keyboard in months lol
Takes about 30 seconds if you want to be absolutely sure (I timed myself when I checked just then lol)

doesn't look like it's possible...I tried it in 1/4 speed and nothing.
probably a short hop f-air you saw, or something to do with saffron platform shenanigans

Are you sure he didn't run off a Dreamland platform and do it?

It's possible. It's also very difficult.
That was one of the things I mentioned when I was arguing DK was a lot more technical than Pikachu lol

Yeah I believe this is where I saw it. I looked for the video but to no avail. I learned it's doable, just hard. And also aa sucks at tech skill.

Does the fair has to connect, or it can be done throwing it to the air in training mode for example?

Pretty widely known my techskill is depressingly bad, given I never practise :3
I really do want proof, I'm simply unsure if you can jump back in time.

You can recover from fair offstage.

I stand corrected.

You can hang on the ledge, release do any aerial and regrab the ledge with upb.
I find that pretty hard.

Shoutout to DK for having the most original Nair in the game.
Also something to practice is running off the stage and reverse neutral b cancel so you can grab the ledge really fast.

I checked it, you're right.
I have improved allot the last 2 months, but my DK hasnt becomed much better. In some match ups, I have becomed descent with him, but overall he hasnt keeped up with my game. 2 months ago he was my third best caracther after pikachu and kirby. Now i've becomed allot better with yoshi, and probably better with puff and mario too even if I have played DK the most. And ness and falcon is soon as good as him.
Is this most likely just a personal thing or do more people feel like DK is easy to get to some level but then harder than other caracthers to take to the next level. I really dont wanna give the great ape up, but its starting to get annoying to often lose to worse players while I use him. Anyone else feel that way with DK?

It was the same for me. DK was up there amongst my characters when I was a lot worse, but he didn't really improve as much as my other characters and got left behind in the dust.
Sad to hear. Hopefully I get him out from the dust.
He improved considerably for me once I started to get better. Once I focused on him, learning his combos and tricks I found he could be a very powerful tool in my arsenal, especially if I played like a homo and Bthrowed/UpB'd all day.

you can beat people by using up-b to deny everything, then throwing at some point :\

Yeah, but I've always played like a homo.

My DK was really tanking compared to my other characters. Then I learned how to uair chain and now just space bairs and camp one of the lower platforms to get in uair chains. Mix em up with sh dairs to usmash or tech chased downb into charged punch. Maybe throw in an nair or two if you're feeling cocky.
Then just get good at upb out of shield and get ready to use it, as aa said, to deny anything when you're in trouble. It also works well to edgeguard someone horizontally from you.
That + bthrows should make your DK pretty good.
I feel mine can compete on a decent level.

Ok possibly never mind about my DK not improving much, because I was playing Firo a few days ago and my DK was ON FIYAH.
Although it was on Dreamland, and my DK is much better on that stage than any other. Platforms are cool.

Dreamland is like DK's favourite stage ever.

Dreamland actually makes DK fun sometimes. That's saying something.
DL is most definitely his favourite stage, but I like the challenge on Hyrule where I try to space my opponent towards the middle under the lowest platform to set them up for combos. Or Saffron trying to do uair combos on the pokemon box.
I never see anyone else take kirby to the West Side (of Hyrule) and do repeated Fthrows from low %'s to Giant punch at 30-40ish. Works like a charm for me; best anti-kirby strategy I have. Of course, it can be mashed out of (ESPECIALLY BY HORI MINIPAD KIDS) but if you get 'em close to the smallwall, that can be really hard to do.
Of course, it's gayer than John Travolta's Carebear Underoos, but there you go.

lol owned by the hori
also fox doesn't combo kirby THAT well in the tent, at least compared to the heavier characters.
Although I love aerial -> usmash at 50%
