Fair spike

6:40 - someone figure out how to do this without the move being canceled by someone's recovery.

If the first or second hit are the only ones that spike, it could be possible that the tip of Falco's beak may have the same effect. So, hitting with the tip and then moving away after the first hit may spike... That's my theory, or for a better word... my "hope" for fair-spiking.

dont think its a spike
looks like the bowser didnt react fast enough or something similar

If you watch a little more of the video you can tell how garbage the people he's playing are. I don't think this is going to be a significant discovery even if it does work since going off the edge isn't really worth it.

Bowser used his up-B and it stopped the fair from finishing, but they both still got hit by each others moves. Then the Bowser went straight down. So... He didn't react quickly enough? What?

It's a really weak spike at least, but the opponent did go straight down. I want to know if the other hits of fair have the same effect besides the last one of course which does not.

didn't look like a spike. just looked like both attacks traded off and stunned each player because aerials don't ping but they do trade damage.

lol its cancels Peoples B ups when they connect i put the Fair section in my movie to show this, i also explained the mechanics of the fair spike on AIB. lol in retrospect i prolly should have put it in my description, but i felt like i would be bragging for making a discovery that i thought most people knew

(most common cancels include DK and Bowser) causes a slight downward push

Whoa, hey dude, thanks for clearing that up...

It clearly isn't a spike, mearly the because of the fact if it was a spike it would of caused much more nockback due to bowsers damage, all it did was cancel bowser's up B.

dont post in old threads ham, this thread was dead and it was widely realized that it wasnt a real spike but was two moves clashing in the air
