They're both at the same time. Vs mk and snake and other top tiers you need to rack up percent without grabs by capitalizing on their running away from it, but at the same time you need those grabs lol

I prefer BF, then FD, then YI, then SV against Snake, but maybe that's just me.

Another cool question. How useful is the desynched Blizzard wall? How long should I do it? When am I supposed to end it?

I love when our Olimar doesn't know how to beat Bliz so I can just spam it the whole match.

Hi, I'm going to second Ice Climbers and I have just a few questions.

1. What is the safest way to get back to the stage?

2. What do you find to be the easiest most used method to desynch during a match?

3. What are some of the top ranked IC's to watch on YouTube?

Thanks in advance.

Usually belay (Up-B) to the ledge is most safe.

Ask DeLux. There are lots of good desyncs. LD1, LD2, Pivot, etc.

Check the video thread. It's stickied. The first post has the top ICs videos.

Just follow the grime...
You realize that whistle can be grabbed right?
If you are desynched blizzarding, and as popo jumps and blizzards; Olimar jumps in whistling through it and dairs/fairs. You get hit. The only olimar I've seen actually use this, is Logic. And I have yet to see him get grabbed for it.

I would say that is rather risky to do. The other Climber is still free to unleash a hell upon Olimar. But I haven't played any Olimars who know the MU well.
Can't he simply throw purples at us when we Bliz?

I am skeptical

Which IC did they do this to? They probably weren't blizzard walling correctly :\
You can't just spray and pray. It's a zoning tool, not a shield

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you can do it faster.

Purples would have to hit our head, they do get stopped if they get hit by blizzard.

Squall has a lot of uses that people really don't realize or use.

For one if you squall someones shield it should be a free grab.

Another is punishing people who hit your shield, many many moves can be squalled out of shield and they can't smash DI out of it if you follow their DI with the control stick and tapping B.

You just spam grab while squalls ending?

:phone:
Don't spam it haha. Just do the normal timing for the squall desynch and press grab. You can also get a guaranteed grab if you jab their shield by jab -> hitlag desynch -> grab. This also works if you jab them out of the air.
