Fast-Falling

[neji49]

I keep reading to do alot of spike techniques(dair spiking), you have to fast fall. How do you do this. Also I'm having trouble with the chaingrab into spike off the edge. I'm too slow. Would fastfalling help this,thanks.

To Fastfall simply press down on your controller at the peek of your jump, you will be able to tell if you've done it successfully or not.

For chain-grab to spike, I usually find that fast falling doesn't help unless its against a very heavy character such as bowser, to do it without fastfalling I usually just downthrow, jump right, then dair (takes a bit of getting used to). Keep at it, I'm sure you'll get it in no time

Dairing right before the peak of your short hop is really the best way to chaingrab>spike combo someone. It's also a great edge guard.

When I chain throw into spike, I usually d-air as I'm rising from the short hop off the edge. It's worked very well for me.

Okay, I have another question. I was watching a video of Falco chaingrabbing into a spike(actually, it was your video, Yeniths) and I started to get what you have to do. But it looks like it's possible to airdodge out of the spike. Can you do this, or did it just seem like that because I was watching in slow-mo?

Yeah this is correct.
