PP, FL... yes, i said pp.
Anyways, how I learned this was I synced up my button pressing to the song "This Calling" by All That Remains (its at 200-210ish bpm) and now I can wobble perfectly :D every time i go to do it, i just 'sing' the song in my head and go from there. So, I suggest everyone find a song that's easy to remember and is at 200 bpm (there's lots in metal music >.>;;; FTW!) if you're still trying to learn ;)
Ayaame, I love you for this. I couldn't get the timing down until i read this. lol, btw i'm totally burning this song into my next mix CD I make to keep the rhythm better :O

Awesome. Took a few hours practicing but now I can wobble. :D
At first I was aiming to do the rhythm at 200 bpm but it wasn't working at all for me cause I suck so I lowered down to the 160 ish area and I got it fine.

Today I was playing smash at school I was wobbling in friendlies because I'm really trying to get the feel of incorporating it into my game... anyways one of them smacked my controller and another decided to pause the game randomly ><. I don't mind that much since they are friendlies, but we all had a good laugh about it, so I decided to share it here.

what do you guys think is better, freeze glitch or wobbling. and by the way why is freeze glitch banned if wobbling is not? my top four characters are
Main: samus
second: IC ftw
third: fox
forth: ness
i picked these 4 either because of a glitch or becuase of brokenness ie. fox. but now i can own up with IC. great thread

umm, w/ the freeze glitch you could get a stock advantage, do it, and then go to the bathroom or something and come back in time to win by time. Why wouldn't that be banned?

When you wobble someone, he or she still has full control of their character, they just can't escape the grab. It's an "exploitation of the game's physics" much like wavedashing. Just more evil.

I'd assume the freeze glitch is banned because it "indefinitely freezes a character, or causes your opponent to no longer have control over his or her character", or at least that's what every tournament has written under "rules"... ;)

The freeze glitch causes the opponent to have absolutely no control. Wiggling the control stick does nothing, they can't get out if you miss by a frame. Like Pookiez said, it can be used to stall the game, and that is illegal in any form. Secondly, it makes the game unfinishable under a number of circumstances (for example, you froze them too high, or accidentally turned them into an icicle).

yea, whereas the wobble can be screwed up, the freeze glitch completely stops your opponent from moving and they cant get it unless you choose so.

p.s. wobble does not mean win, IC's need to be FAR deeper then that to win at any decent level of competitive play

Great guide. I'm going to learn wobbling as soon as possible. My friends will probably hate me when I do it, but it will be worth it.

Thank you for all your info on infinite grab. Please explain to me further about this. Everytime I try to do it, it lasts for about 50% only. I grab A, tilt it slowly to the side I am facing, then press A (even rhythm) , I am still tilting slowly until it stops as I press A (still in an even rhythm) , then it just cancels and throws them or they are let go of at 50%. Please message me back about more info.

IDontHaveAClue: Eventually you won't need to tilt the joystick because it will go as far as it can in that direction. At that point, you just need to hold it.

Gomi: I do around 3 taps per second.

Wobbling works between 152-176 BPM if your having troubles getting the timing, crank out a metronome I guess. Just set it to 160 or so, in fact if you don't have a metronome, just google an online one.

shafty no, its not. Wobbling is the thing you see when one IC is grabbing and the other one is just doing a ton of forward tilts and the other person is sitting there getting hit, it's what Chu does vs Azen at I think Vegas, or what wobbles does to noobs when he doesn't want to think.

I know. Marth really needs to be able to kill off a grab that works with his insane dash dance and reaches about as far as Yoshi and Young Link's grabs, except it's faster. Then he would FINALLY be competitively viable.

Grab a lot, shieldgrab a lot, wavedash a lot, jab a lot, d-smash a lot, chaingrab a lot, apply wobbling where necessary.

Edit - Read Wobbles' posts a lot.

n00b alert: Yeah, I'm having a whole load of trouble learning the timing for wobbling. I can only pull off about 20-50% before Nana hits him out of it or he escapes. After rereading your guide, it says that I should press A "rhythmically" and try to space the attacks as evenly apart as possible. Does that mean that the speed is mostly irrelevant as long as I'm not going too slow, and that I should focus on pressing A at exact time intervals?

I'm just trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
