If you pivot a smash missile near a edge you will fall off facing the edge. You do not instantly grab so you have a bunch of options. You can also use your grapple to get a nice lagless edge grab. Here are the steps:

1. Dash toward the edge (pref off the level. I've tried on the platforms on BF and can't do it as consistently)
2. Shoot a smash missile the opposite direction as your are nearing the edge.
3. The missile animation is completely canceled and you are now off the level / platform facing the edge. Do whatever you want from here.

I don't see this as game breaking or anything. It allows you to get to the edge with your grapple pretty quickly (fd you just press z, bf you have to fast fall other wise it doesn't tether properly). You can also instantly bair at the edge's height, not sure if any of you wanted to be able to do that for any reason

Yeh Rohin was playing around with that yesterday and the day before, I remembered that if you tap a direction ( Left or Right) your b move is shot the direction that you tapped, same with missiles I use it to recover if I'm backwards out. Provides Cover and gets you a grapple save which is pure sex.

So it's like missile canceling... minus the missile. ...awesome...Iguess...?

It could be kinda sorta flashy if you could use this to get a backwards-run-off-the-stage-to-spike. Unfortunately, the animation is canceled so your opponent probably won't even notice.

I tried it out, and I only done it twice. At first, I thought Rohins was saying that you run off the stage and fire a Super Missile, and then your Super Missile will fly back at your opponent. I thought, "This is already known, but it doesn't work." So, when I tried it, I fired my Super Missile, but it didn't come out. Instead, I dropped off and automatically grabbed the edge. I tried it again after I did it the first two times, but I was unable. Instead, I'd turn around while I was still on the stage.

you cant missle during the dash animation, i dont know how to do this :(
Yeah you can, works the same way it did in Melee. Press forward and press back and B at the same time any time during the dash and you'll shoot a missile. Time it so you are at the edge and you will be off the edge facing the edge.

I'll get my recording equipment and make a vid for it.
