Down tilt lock trick

[Mew2King]

I figured this out a long time ago but never posted it but thought it was pretty cool

If you down tilt lock them, at low and mid %, you barely have enough time to roll behind them and down tilt lock the other direction. This doesn't work past like idk 60% or so




edit - if opponent DIs the down tilt lock it only works to like 30% or so pretty useless. Still cool though. I guess you can trick people that are expecting down smash at the ledge, and instead do roll + down tilts across the other side of the stage?

Yay, a new way to be gay! Thanks M2K!

 

[Mew2King]

that's why they call me m2gay

jk there's a million more reasons than that :[ and it's not literal

 

[-Mars-]

Does it work on all characters or just a specific weight class?

 

[Jupz]

Woah, awesome.

 

[Corrupted]

mk's front roll is stupid fast

 

[Palpi]

D-tilt lock works on all characters, pretty sure.

 

[Omnicron's Baklava Enterprises]

Yay, more funny little games to play with the opponent.

I'm going to go try this out.

It's especially nice because an M2K roll is always a front roll.

i couldnt do it all at first but now i can yay =]

Now we just need to find a good DTilt Lock Setup.

Umm, what? Hit them with a DTilt. How's that for a setup? o.O

This trick must be brutal against Diddy!

 

[CaliburChamp]

How about D-tilt lock to wavedash, to reverse D-tilt. Oh, this is brawl... thats why.

By the way I find it easy to D-tilt wall infinite by hitting them with dash attack, it knocks the opponent forward at low % and positions MK near the wall for an easy wall set up infinite.

 

[Affinity]

lol Nice, I always wondered if this was legit. Good stuff.

 

[Xposure]

Cool. I'll have to try this out.

Lol so little of this quote makes sense.

Really? Now all we need is a stage that allows a wall infinite to suddenly be tournament legal and we're in business! Not to belittle your tip; it is still good to know.

Edit: I just now realized why M2K usually has dtilt->reverse dtilt in his between-stock "keeping-warm" regimen. Practicing this technique has shown me that it takes more precision than I realized to input dtilts in alternating directions, unless my controller is just jank.

 

[Mew2King]

Deoxys, hitting them with down tilt, even if it trips them (like 1/3 chance), does not start a down tilt lock. He has no good down tilt lock set ups really, you just have to get lucky. Maybe teams?? lol

 

[ksizl4life]

lucky little mew2king

 

[Staco]

Shiek and Falco could set it up very easy for you in teams.
But I would better team with a Snake than doing this.

DThrow (maybe also B and FThrow?) to Footstool to Lock should also be legit.

And I think MK got some Uair to Uair to Footstool to Nair setup thing.
I dont know if it works with your enemy using DI and after doing it your allready close to >30%.

 

[OverLade]

Cool beans M2K. The only real setup to Dtilt lock against someone who isn't being lazy is knocking them off a platform while they're shielding (they go into the air rolling animation and bounce on the ground) but they can even get out of that by jumping (attacking?) so its not likely to happen.

Still way too good though.

 

[FB Dj_Iskascribble]

sometimes for no reason when you d-throw them they do nothing and they hit the floor and dont tech its a free lock

 

[Deoxys]

Oh, I see. So it's not a worthy trade-off to use dtilt if it's close enough for something like nair or a grab to work....

DThrow (maybe also B and FThrow?) to Footstool to Lock should also be legit.

And I think MK got some Uair to Uair to Footstool to Nair setup thing.

Huh? Footstool sends MK pretty high, are you sure he can get back to the ground for a lock in time? Or are you talking about in teams?

 

[Staco]

When you stand next to Snake (dunno on which other chars this works) you can short hop uair to rejump uair to footstool (the small short hop foostool, not the big one, there are two different footstool heighs) to nair.
The nair (2nd hits) makes the first lock hit and gives you enough time to insert a DTilt.

I cant find the video. Its very hard to get the footstool.

 

[M@v]

It's like keitaro time....but with a SWORD.

 

[Palpi]

Mew2King, can't you continuously keep using; d-tilt, roll, d-tilt, roll, d-tilt, roll?

 

[Jupz]

No because it only works to 30% he said.

 

[Palpi]

Regardless, it would work to 30% then.

 

[PottyJokes]

theres dtilt lock that works on snake at 0-5%.

works when ur back is facing snake, you short hop dair, then uair before mk lands, then full hop uair then double jump footstool him, then fastfall nair on his body when it hits the floor then u commence the dtilt lock. i think it also works on rob

vs. DDD you can do:
Uair while landing to short hop uair to rejump footstool to fast falled nair, then lock

What doesn't work on ROB?? lol


/topic


which is the best follow up for the lock? And btw, nice thing m2k =)

 

[PottyJokes]

vs. DDD you can do:
Uair while landing to short hop uair to rejump footstool to fast falled nair, then lock

you can also do the same vs snake, and other 'taller" characters but its kinda hard to land an uair that close to the ground

something similar to that? =0

 

[Staco]

On DK you can do single short hop uair to footstool, lmao.

But I prefer uair to tornado/nair follow ups (50+ damage), instead of the lock. ^^

 

[Hype]

You can do a semi-charged Fsmash at the edge of a Dtilt lock instead of Dsmash (they have a period of invincibility in the middle of the get up animation so it has to be charged a bit)

 

[Mew2King]

i like down tilt locking them then jabbing them near the edge, then either down smash or down throw down smash after that (so they don't DI). For damage or guaranteed knockback, semi charged F smash is better.

 

[saviorslegacy]

****it, just what we need, MK to have a tilt lock. -_-

 

[Jim Morrison]

****it, just what we need, MK to have a tilt lock. -_-

U maad, U maaaad.

Interesting Tilt lock, I usually just do one D-tilt to poke them off the edge or grab them afterwards.

 

[Palpi]

****it, just what we need, MK to have a tilt lock. -_-

SHUT UP!

THIS ISN'T USEFUL EITHER.

STOP!

OMFG!

 

[Crizthakidd]

where are u guys downtlit locking? like when they hit the ground with no tech?
i thought u could only do it against a wall

 

[Palpi]

Yeah, say you dair someone and they don't air-dodge or tech it, then you can d-tilt walk up (if you need to), d-tilt etc.
