I was wondering if anyone could explain how to do a couple platform tricks for me.
1: The platform cancelled aerials (not the ones that you cancel by sliding off the edge, the drop through platform cancelled aerials as seen at the end of Phanna Phunner)
2: No impact drops
3: PC drops (<- I heard its almost impossible to do more than 2 in a row?)

They really are all just timing things that you'd have to get used to. I know for the Platform Cancel Fair you have to drop through the platform and fair somewhere in between the crouch animation and the fall through animation, but the timing is really tight. I really don't see it being that usefull either. There are some technical things that aren't requried in any way, but I encourage you to keep trying if it's really something you want to do. Who knows, maybe you'll find something amazing that you can do with it like what XIF did with the Peach's Nair to Jab pillar thing.

Yea, I don't know how useful these techniques would be but I'd like to learn to do them anyways. I'm sure if I get fluid enough with these techniques, I could use them during a match and it certainly wouldn't hurt to learn. For the platform cancelled aerials I was kinda wondering if you could do aerials other than fair. For the other two I simply don't know how to do them :/.

For the no impact drop you have to time your jump so that you land on the platform at the peak of your jump.

I'm think Marth might be able to Platform cancel the first hit of the Nair.

What exactly is a PC drop? I've never heard of the term, but I may have seen the technique before.

PC drop is a faster version of the no impact drop, I'm pretty sure it requires frame perfect timing though. My friend told me about it and then showed me a video of it on youtube. I forgot the name of the video but I'd be willing to bet Phanna made it, he's too godly with the platforms :p

Honestly, I don't see the point in knowing how to do the platform cancelled aeriels with Marth, though I do it occasionally just to see the reaction from people. It's not that hard once you get the timing.
