i dont know if this is used a lot, or if it was already discovered a while back, but while i was playing my friends a while back, i usually get their % over 100, so i couldn't finish a ken combo because of them going to high. so instead of trying to spike them in the end, i do a jump then quickly do a reverse dolphin slash, which sends them flying. :ohwell:

so basically, its a good combo finisher if the opponent is too high to do a dair spike. another thing is that since your opponent is at a certain/high percentage, he/she will fly.

would you consider this effective?:confused:

(look, as mentioned before, i don't know if this move has been already discovered, or if it has already been mentioned, but its just something i found by myself.)

Yes, it is effective at higher percents, but only if its sweetspotted. It comes out extremely quickly, and as it's used so little it often catches people off gaurd. You can do it out of your shield as well, which is an added bonus.

I use it a lot against Fox/Falcos using firefox/bird to recover, but running of the stage and hitting them with a reverse dolphin slash.

Yea its old but its sexy as crap. Just use it, dont even think of the punishment you will recieve if you miss or get shielded =p. I like using the 1st or 2 moves of the DeD to hit with it. Dtilt > Wavedashed Reverse Dolphin is pretty sexy as well. These r just some simple ways to get into it arouns low %'s, figure out some things yurself, pop it out at random every once in a while for the quick kill, just 1 more trick up yur sleeve. =D

My friend uses side b -> Reverse Dolphin Splash once in a while. Gets me sometimes... It's a pretty decent move to end a combo with because as someone said it comes out quick and isn't too too tough to sweetspot.

Edit: What double post? He has the same avatar as you, but it's not you.

uggh I've been having issues rattling that off. But the Reverse and the regular are really good if they're above 130. Normally finishes them off nicely and they never see it coming if you mix it in well with the rest of my marth play.
