Did you know you can fast fall a full jump back air so that you hit the top of someone's shield AND auto cancel the back air?

falco can short hop back air and have it auto cancel. Auto canceling really makes a pretty big difference

I think fox can out camp anyone. you just have to be patient. falco cant shoot as fast and fox can be super evasive, more so than falco.

starzonedge camps falcos all day

Powershielding is hella easy.

if you can't Power shield, use down b.

I think approaching with shine, both in the air and on the ground, is pretty solid.

my favorite is JC grab out of shine. Honestly.

Is it plausible to edgeguard someone by using a Dair edge cancelled followed immediately by a shine? I thought I did it to a level 1 computer messing around while practicing but maybe I just imagined it.

Can Fox ledgehop illusion and retain the invincibility from the legde throughout the hit frames of the illusion. I know Falco can and I'm pretty sure Fox can't, but I don't have an AR.

Yea it does seem at times that fox has a longer delay than falco in just how much time you have to wait before trying to ledgehop w/e after grabbing the ledge. IDK maybe because fox is faster the delay just feels longer. IrConfused. Thursday night = Pong night so my judgement is a bit off at the moment.

Well, let's think about it. Fox' illusion hitbox comes out on frame 22 or something like that, and finishes going forward at like frame 26. So if you can ledge hop so you're above the stage in 4 frames or less, it's possible. If they're standing close to the ledge (so you would hit with the illusion in the earlier frames) you would just have to ledgehop within 6-8 frames or something.

So is 6-8 frames enough for to be higher than the edge? I woudn't think that would give him enough time, but I could be wrong.

Why bother edge hopping illusion when you can edge hop down air?
I wonder the same thing when I'm playing against a Fox who does this.

Well, a perfect pillar is pretty hard to grab and it seems like "ungrabable" (when you do it)

But everyone knows that the more you mix up your pressure the more harder to grab it is. You can use multishine pillaring and or do something else instead of dair (bair or nair), or shl out of your shine like forward, or jc grab out of shine (too good) like shiz (also, too good)

A perfect pillar with Fox cannot be shieldgrabbed.

scotu said:
Pillaring (w/ dair):
Shine puts +2 advantage after jump, drill comes out on frame 5, and has a 3 frame disadvantage.
Drill lands w/ 4 frames of shield lag (past the hitstun on the drill), so after l-canceling (9 frames) you have a 5 frame disadvantage.
Escape methods: spot dodge (after shine), spot dodge/ roll/ any one frame attack jc'ed by a 4 frame jumper (after drill)
Shield Damage: 22/ Drill, 5/ shine, 8 for shield decay. 35/ iteration.
Notes: you should position your dair so that it's inside of them (to follow their shield DI/SDI, and to make sure you don't shield poke).
Your opponent's shield is left unpressured for 5 frames at most, which isn't enough to shieldgrab.

I usually use the c-stick for dairs out of habit from spiking with falco. So what normally happens is I fast fall the last 1 or 2 hits of the dair with the analog stick and L-cancel right after. This seems to help me alot cause it allows you to make the timing a little more consistent but you'll miss out on that last hit. Then again you'll throw off the timing and maybe get a grab on your opponent before he expects the dair to finish.
On a sidenote. I just recently picked up fox seriously and I'm by no means a pro so I could be speaking gibberish.

You mean drill to shield grab? Drill>L Cancel>Shine>Jump Cancelled Grab, so C stick or A+ Down, Down+B, Y or X Then IMMEDIATELY press Z


OR do you mean shieldgrabbing period? Um..L or R+A >_>;

Whats the point in arguing about being frame perfect? None, because its not possible unless your REAL LIFE runs at 60 fps. Frame perfect is silly to even try to justify talking about being frame perfect. because If it was possible, I bet characer discussion wouldnt exist.

Real life obviously isn't even divided into frames, but the rate at which a human eye can percieve the world is much higher than 60fps, iirc. Also, doing something frame perfect isn't all that hard. It's doing it consistently that's the problem.
