Edge Gaurding with Down Aerials (video)

[Sai Winner of Games]

The technique itself is simple. Jump and immediately momentum cancel with down aerial near the edge. Usually, it will not work unless your opponent is positioned properly depending on the stage. Here is a video of it in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO9VNSHtobE @2:20 (ignore the parts were I suicide 2 times). Wall cling/wall jump to down aerial is also useful. I will try to get more videos soon.

[Repryx]

[Annhialator Zero]

[Mule50]

Is the shame thing that I used in my lucario´s versus in the minute 2:50 =P (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWMRhSEnjV0), but in this time...try to use the edge guarding in the form that shows this video ^^...is more usefull and is more effective in all the stages .

Cyas :D

from the videos i have watched it looks like lucario is an excelent gimper. What other techniques can he use to egde guard /gimp.

 

[AngelOfSkyland]

Wow, great technique! Thanks for sharing!

 

[Van Jones]

I really like using this technique. Even if you don't use it all the time it starts to mess with your opponents head when they are recovering.

Yeah, but it's fairly easy to gimp Lucario also.
