Before u come here and tell me that this isnt going to werk and blah blah blah just stp typing. I understand that most pro's probably won't do this but there are def. more average/good Mk mains then there are pro's. This "tech" or wut ever u wanna call it is just a little something that may help. Just leave positive feed back or questions that you may have..

Explination: WHen a Mk shuttle loops to teh edge he does not do the full swoop because he auto grabs. But if he hits something (in this case a shield) then he continues to swoop allowing time for you to grab the edge. VEry situational since most Mk's drill rush or tornado (Which i like to call pressing the emergency red button lol thanks NAsty). But we all kno that when a mk sees an oppenent running or stand by the edge they sometimes shuttle loop, thus allowing u to gimp.

Srry for the bad quality.

Nice find, every bit of information helps (:

but if a good mk does this, he mostly does it along the stage, so you can shield it, but he directly grabs the edge

however, mistakes happen, so it's good to know

btw. if you have shielded him, you could push him away with WoI, so he cant grab the edge anymore^^

Mirror shield is better.

Mirror shield is better.

mirror shield also takes a few frames longer to come out the a nearly instant ppwershield

It's a very nice technique! Although, it seems very difficult to do and require some practice to do, But still! I say its a good way to cancel his ledge grab!

Nice, for those who has trained powersheild on melee, this should be easy x)
(I did, but not mastered , sheik just didn't have reflectors u_u)

Mk can fly below the stage and to the other ledge. It will work on average meta players though.

 

[PsychoNess]

wow lololol that looked funny

 

[Rogue Pit]

It happened to me and I was like "D@mn... really?" But he didnt edgehog, i just hit his shield and was like... meh. Than died. Than I Tornado'd

 

[D4V1]

well, its very useful against a lot of Mks, but like Sagemoon said, an expert mk player will just glide to the ledge on the other side of the stage instead!

but a i cant complain...techniques against MKs will be very welcome!! xD

I did this to a marth once but I didnt power shield it so i fell to the ledge and edgehoged him lol
