I just got home and am messing around with this.

so what's funny is if you hold A, slight-tilt, and keep tapping upwards on the C-stick, it resets your walk animation.

If you time it right, it looks like he's sliding on his front foot and using his backfoot to skateboard forward.

ahahahah
surf
grind
skateboard.

spinzaku

it's complete.

So, if you hit C-stick to pivot while running, and hold back while you're in turnaround animation, you'll immediately start walking backwards, full speed.

This is useful.

edit:

Actually, I just found

what could be

the most useful thing for Sonic related to this move.



:bee:

while walking at full speed, do a C-stick pivot and SHIELD.

=)

edit:

Marth likes it too :3

we get this huuge slide while pivot shielding.

Marth does too.

not to mention, any sword character looks totally badass while pivot-walk-shielding lol

Marth is all like "lol look i'm an anime swordsman!" *reverse block* *turn and block* *turn and block*

while sliding

yup.

Sonic's pivot shield slides slightly further than his running shield's slide, WITH the shield up the whole time. It's like, the distance from the tip of the diamond in Final Destination to the first arrow from the center. And it reaches even further than that, because your shield is tilted forward already.

I'm pretty cool.

I just tried it.

****'s badass.

But is it really more efficient than dash > shield?

I would hate transferring to the claw position MID-BATTLE.

Dash>shield for multiple attacks, but pivot walk definitely if you're going for that one shot move.

Cat, do you really use both of your shield buttons? Or Z for grab? I'd take a gander that at least one of L, R or Z goes by unused. You can set it to attack in addition to A if you really wanted to incorporate.

I wanna see vids T-T.

Can someone post pics depicting slide distance? Is it similar to dash+shield slide distance?

And did you see what havokk posted in the main thread? You can tap up while dashing from a pivot boost for LAGLESS full dash turnarounds... do you know what that means for sonic?!? :D

EDIT:

I'm not exactly sure if its from a full dash actually from his wording.

I don't see any reason why it WOULDN'T be useful for many chars.

DK can Cargo throw more quickly.

This is more effective than walking for Marth.

Sonic now has MORE dash/walk tricksies, and it could potentially help alot more people make use of tilts.

It's not gamebreaking, but definitely one of the more useful things to have come across general brawl mechanics since like, RAR.

Why do almost no Sonic mains RAR anymore btw? >_>

You can start holding A with your index finger after a tilt, then approach them with a single-turn pivot walk, or maybe a 3-turn pivot walk+shield

you mean like, from the 'original thread'/crazy walk?

tilt forward, tilt backward, tilt forward, tilt backward... lol

Noone ever noticed this slide from Sonic with the old version because you had to release the control stick.
