Ganon's Lair: The official "Ask a simple question, get a simple answer" thread

[A2ZOMG]

I make this thread in hopes that there will be less clutter in the Ganon forums. Most of the questions I intend to have sent here involve people asking "How do I get better with Ganon?". If you are about to ask that, please ask that here.

As for a few common questions, I will answer these right off the bat:

Q. How do you Thunderstorm aka autocancel D-air?
A. Do a buffered SH D-air. Watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyZUlALAArc . GCN controllers, on default settings, Y to Down-A in a wavelike motion, or circle jump and C stick down quickly.

Q. What can you do from a Flame Choke?
A. Read Swoop's stickied guide and you will find a list of the guaranteed followups. The tl;dr answer? Jab the big guys. Buffer D-tilt on the mid weights (hold the control stick down lightly and press A). You can do Jab, D-tilt, and F-tilt on the really light guys.

Q. OMFG LOOK I DISCOVERED THIS TECH WHERE YOU JUMP AND QUICKLY DOWN-B AND I WONDER WHAT YOU CAN USE IT FOR?
A. Yes, we know about the Murder Quake. It sucks. Never use it.

Q. WTF do I do in this thread?
A. You dare to bring light to Ganon's lair?

Q. Ganon sucks.
A. no u. GTFO.

Eh, it works.

Ray Kalm beat you to it... I think.

Is Ganondorf's DACUS good?

 

[A2ZOMG]

Bah, I've been beaten to it already? Well, better tell a mod to sticky either one of these topics... =/

And Ganon's DACUS is useless. You only go like 1 inch farther than normal. Not significant at all.

 

[Face124]

ok thanks. I read somewhere that characters with low traction have better DACUS', so I thought Ganondorf's would be good.

I thought that too and tested it, but like A2 said, you don't go much farther.
