yeah but if you hold A you can keep the banana in your hand and fsmash whenever.
But isn't that uncomfortable? I can't really see using my index/thumb to hold a while using the other to smash c-stick whenever. How do you guys do it comfortably?

Also, when you have the item in your hand, can you smash in any direction while holding the item?

I think I might be doing it wrong because whenever I hold A and do a forward smash it always charges. Also, this is making me holding the controller awkwardly. How are you holding it?

I use my index finger on the A button then have my thumb use the c stick. Yes it's awkward lol but like, once you get it to habbit it won't be a bother to you.

I learned you can z drop it while landing and re grab it and F smash at the same time. Sexy good

I have z set to attack (makes dacus and a couple other things for secondaries easier) which makes it a LOT easier to smash while holding an item, lol.

Probably because you're still holding the attack button (basic mechanics of charging smashes) lol. I guess some people forget that .-.

You should make some more worthless posts.

Why the **** would I set R to attack?
hahaha that was harsh. Also i have R set to attack. It makes DACUS easier for sheik IMO although i used z for a while. My question is if z is attack whats ur grab button? I made mine R at the time then realized why bother switching 2 buttons instead of just 1. So now R is attack.

Isnt this the same as doing two aerials?

Catch the banana with an aerial then buffer or be frame perfect to do another aerial while still holding the banana.

I was kinda irked he edited my post in a ******** way and then made a worthless recommendation. lol, and like you said... why bother switching 2 buttons?

I agree, having a top button set to attack makes sheiks dacus (or any for that matter) sooooo much easier, haha.

I use both L and R to shield. I typically use L for shielding, but I like to press both at the same time. Which ever finger pushes the trigger faster, I guess lol. I've noticed that consecutive powershielding (like a multihit move or something) happens a lot more frequently when I use both. A big thing I do with oli is try to pshield an attack or projectile and then go for the kill - I just click the shield and go for it, so if I press both it's two inputs... if I hold the other one (for multihit attacks) it buffers a shield for the next hit - if I'm lucky I pshield both :)

I had Y set to grab for the looongest time (seems to be a running theme for olimar players XD). Beginning of 09 I played lain for the first time, kinda messed around with ICs for fun before but it was like o_o that's cool. So I went on to mimic lain's style IC... practicing CGs with that that tiny *** Z button hurts <.< so I switched to Y since I never used that button =]

I need to try this banana thing. It looks useful.

I set my Y to grab. L for shield. R for attack and Z for attack because I don't use it.
