edgaurding q's

[nigam]

when edgegaurding against people i normally use the tecnique where you do a bair and regrab the stage or you jump and dair and you di forward onto the stage.

recentally i saw a combo vid where you grab the edge then wall jump and spike then firebird bak onto the edge and i was woundering what the purpose of that tecnique was, was it just for flashyness or was it actually suposed to be used at a certian time when your opponent does something.

here is a combo video of where i found this stuff so u have an idea of what im talking about.

4:10 hes doing the bair kick

4:21 hes doing the spike kick

4:28 hes doing the wall jump spike

so once you see these tell me what the wall jump spike is for thanx

It is flashy, but realistically, it's just a different kind of attack. With the wall jump dair, you're hitting somewhere the other two attacks cannot.

there are a few uses to walljump dair

it can catch people offguard(once or twice only, if they arent expecting it)

you can reach out a little farther with the dair. i like doing it to fox when he thinks that he got the upb off high enough to not get spiked.

you create a diagonal line of spike (must be timed to properly cross paths)

it looks flashy.

all situational, but it never hurts to have another move in your arsenal.

the purpose of it is to maker your birdie sexier =O

Edgegaurdd fox by predicting his midair jump then shoot a laser then edgegaurd from there

When I do the laser to a Fox/Falco, he instant front-B, and I don't have enough time to hit him after... It is me or it is normal ?
