Footstool -> Up-B [WIP]

[SpawnSean]

So Doctor Mario can Super Jump Punch some characters right out of a footstool. This is probably not new to most of you. Although I have found a way to extend the amount of character we can Footstool -> Up-B. If you jump right after a footstool then Up-B you can hit some character you normally wouldn't be able to. The reason for this I am not sure of, but it is either one of two things.
1. When you jump after the footstool you actually lower your Y coordinate a bit to reach lower.
2. When you jump the jump allows you to stay relatively close to your X and Y coordinate for a few more frames, which allows you to hit more characters with this trick.

This tech might be able to be applied to other characters as well.

I never though about it being applied this way. I'll be sure to try it out.

EDIT: Also, keep content like this coming. The Doc boards are a litle dead

I know right? I'm trying to find as much stuff as I possibly can.

Pretty bad when someone who doesn't main Doc has to post on the forums for us XD

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I use Doctor Mario in tournament play if that means anything.

 

[Eight_SixtyFour]

Interesting find. Can't wait to see what else you have come up with.

 

[Coolwhip]

I'm laughing coming across this thread due to footstool > up-b a bowser in dubs last night. But yeah, it works!

 

[Fliflob]

Grounded footstool to neutral air also works, although I'm not sure how much of the cast if works on (and I may be missing something since I'm really bad at this game). I can't see it being that great at low percents, but at high percents I think it could be a viable setup for getting the untechable spin (or just a missed tech in general), since you can jab lock afterwards with a pill, then forward smash. Hope that someone finds this useful

I found out about this around 4 months ago. I don't think that this is any better than normal up-b, except when used against Yoshi when edgeguarding (It lets you bypass the super armor of his second jump).

I've been testing with this on and off for a few months now - you can get the untechable spin into a pill jab lock at about 100% (as for how true this is I'm not so sure), and I think there's a stupid thing on battlefield if they're at a higher % but it seems really tricky - I'll keep testing it because I'm not sure if it's a thing, and if it is, whether it's true, and how to cover options if the opponent doesn't get put in an untechable state. As well as this, there's some stuff you can do with platforms and sliding at lower %s - you can get some pretty high damage combos, and what seems like a combo that goes 20% to a KO if the opponent misses a tech. However, as with the other thing, this seems tricky, and I'd need to do more testing to check if this stuff is true, how to cover options in bits that aren't guaranteed, etc. Anyway, in all normal circumstances I'd agree and say up b is better - by the time nair would put them in an untechable spin up b will either get a KO or put them in a bad position offstage where you can edge guard them. Thanks for the clarification!
EDIT: Just to clarify a bit more, the only way I can see nair being a useful option is if there is a way to convert that to more damage/a more reliable KO than with up b. I also remembered the low % thing, so I put that in. Anyway, Sorry if you guys already know all this stuff, or if it's completely useless (I'm pretty bad at the game, this is stuff I've just found by messing about).

 

[LoneLabbr]

I'm talking about footstool up-b, not footstool nair.

Sorry, I just misinterpreted .
EDIT: I just misread actually, since I just read your message again and saw that I just straight up read it wrong .
Again, sorry about that.

I do this all the time to CPU's. My gosh the hit along with the sound is so satisfying....
