so I've been doing a lot of teams at smashfests around college because there is always around 4-5 people with one TV. and of course I pick only fox because I want to become better with fox.
what are some good teamates for fox and what are some good tricks you can do with fox? I will share some of my findings. I guess I'll just list them off
good teamates for fox:
peach
jiggly puff
shiek
no other teammates really stand out to me when I play w/ them so yea.
now tactics
after dieing, we all know you get invincibility frames, and that your partner is now in a 2v1. easiest way to break it up? run in and usmash both of them (preferably the opponent)
also this gets easy kills too if they aren't paying attention and have high percentage. uair also works when they have high percent
this also works during the match if the opponent doesn't pay attention to you. I know I'm not the only one that notices how 2v2s end up in just 2 separate 1v1 matches a lot. fox is probably the best character at going in and making it a 2v1 battle or 2v2 depending if the opponent follows. now you wont always land the usmash but at least you are keeping your opponents focused on you now, and say if your opponent is jigz, peach, or shiek they all can punish people who aren't paying attention with deadly kill moves or combos (this is why I like them as partners, aside from them also surviving longer than usual in teams)
now for grabs. this only really works when you have killed off one of your opponents, and is pretty much common sense. when your teammate grabs the opponent, you run up right where when they break out of the grab your charged usmash will kill them. or if you are impatient, you can do it while they are still being held. the best time to usmash is when they just break out of the grab because you get more charge time that way but it doesn't matter so long as they die.
another tactic I have found is when your friend grabs and does an up throw if you coordinate it right you can run in and get a uair (another reason why shiek, peach, and jigz are good teammates...all have good uthrow that fox can easily follow up w/ uair)
now all of this requires a teammate very aware of what you are doing and when you are doing it, otherwise with these light teammates you may very well kill them along w/ the opponent. also grab combos require communication with your partner which also is developed.
most of this seems like common sense well....because it is. but I want to hear if anyone has come up with anything that works pretty consistently in teams and maybe some other good partners.
note before posting this is stuff fox can do we are discussing, not how say if fox grabs jigz can rest the person grabbed.
