How difficult is it to get a purple to the front of the line to prevent an edgehog? I've only seen the top olimars consistently do this.
Noa.
Smash Master
You can do it easily with the whistle. Read about the whistle in Fino's guide and you'll learn about the pikmin hierarchy.

This or pikmin shuffle.... which is basically just blanking aerials to get a desired pikmin.

I'm probably mistaken, but that looks like a perfect pivot to fsmash.

He DPC->fsmashed, which is a dash pivot canceled fsmash.
To do it you run forward, pivot, and then fsmash the opposite direction during the latter part of the pivoting animation.

I keep it off for tether tricks, but I can still upb/usmash OOS/pivot usmash because of my control scheme.

when i do that they spot dodge and i get hit, i f-smash they power shield and i get hit >>;
Noa.
Smash Master
While camping, there's a distance when you need to stop throwing pikmin and start fsmashing and grabbing. This distance is right outside of your grab/fsmash range. When they reach that point, stop throwing and start throwing out fsmashes and grabs.
If you're abusing fsmash's range, they shouldn't be able to powershield and hit you. Keep throwing out fsmashes if they spotdodge. Grab when you predict a shield.
It's very important to space. If you don't then you will get punished.
That's only for ground approaches. For aerial approaches, shieldgrab, pivot grab or usmash them if they aren't doing an aerial.

i need some help, i played this intense falco and i didn't even stand a chance... im not a noob olimar lol but this falco just beat Dojo... and his spacing was so goood it was unreal, i never got him down to 1 stock and i friendlied him at least 10 rounds. how can i beat lazer camp combined with side-B dash when its spaced to outreach my grab game? olimar's side-B purple wont stop it and my smashes wont.. and my Nair wont...
another question about falco is after he chain grabs then spikes me while im off the stage i felt like i had no options.. i know you can get out of chain grab at 20% with good timing but then he would Dair Dthrow then like another combo with his jabs and tilts that left me uncontroled... any info?

so outcamp sethnalon? 0.o its so hard to out camp falco cuz his lazers are fast and stupid but i'll try it next time thank you!

With super campy falcos, I learned that it's best to literally never EVER jump. This doesn't work on all Falcos, only the ones that really laser camp. You can just do grounded sideB and Fsmashes to keep them away. Try to learn their sideB habits and bait the sideB while putting yourself in a position to punish it. Something I recently found that really works is when Falco is recovering, put myself at a position that will make him want to sideB on the stage, but face away from falco. That way the moment it hits my shield I can grab because when he lands he will be past me.

wat rich said plus just let him get comfy, let him get u to a good percent (about 120%), he'll come to try to kill u with an u-smash, then just space ur *** off and dont let him kill u while u rack up damage and then when u get a kill, just keep racking up damage

Let Falco hit you with your lasers; there's not much else you can do.
When the time is right, you will know. >:D

I'm still getting used to these terms we use but I have one question, what is autocanceling?
I saw DanGr mention something about autocanceling a nair, but I don't know what that is D: Help!

autocanceling an ariel is where u cancel the ariel on the ground during the frames of the attack so it has les or no landing lag

I mentioned auto-cancelling aerials in the social thread.
Noa.
Smash Master
Autocanceling aerials are aerials that have no extra landing lag when you land while doing them.
None of Olimar's aerials autocancel, but nair has a very little landing lag.

I believe all his aerials excluding nair autocancel, they just don't have hitboxes.

That's not really autocanceling. To autocancel you land while you're using the hitbox. Autocanceling is named that since it automatically cancels the landing lag of the aerial.
You're landing before the aerial comes out. It's an aerial cancel since you cancel the aerials before it happens.

How do you cancel the up-b into a second jump off the stage after you used your second jump once?

Wow, the questions have been building up in this place >.>
- I'm not sure if Peaches dair can be beat out by our utilt, i'll have to try it out
- yesterday
- Are you refering to tether canceling? The only way to cancel an UpB is to press down after the tether has made contact to the stage.

Just to expound a bit...
You can't cancel your upb into a jump if you've already used your second jump.
What you can do is latch to the stage with upb, disconnect by pressing down, then jumping up if and only if you've got your second jump with you still.
