Dislclaimer: All of this is theorycrafting atm until I get a reliable Melee setup at college.

Usually a PM Samus but have been messing with her in Melee a bit more recently and have one question:

How viable is RLD (straight Hax$ style) to refresh your tether? I know this isn't falcon and she will be mostly vulnerable but if someone could give an exact number of invincible/ vulnerable frames that'd be cool.

As an alternative, perhaps ledgehop + bomb (looks a bit like a NIL) to slide off regrab might be slightly safer because it lays the bomb in the way, but definitely is slower.

Samus can fully invincible hax dash. She can also use AI to clip to the stage and wavedash back off and be fully invincible, although it is VERY frame tight. Haxdashing to get your tether can be reliable on most stages if you practice it.

Read through the forums before posting, look before asking. Also been doing that bomb on lip of the stage then trashed the idea because it really is unsafe as hell and have very limited uses as a result, plenty of mix up if you do get the bomb out an roll back on with zair cancels and wavelands from the bomb explosion, ect.
