The f-air makes a decent edgeguard, but the up-air is usually a lot more useful. The f-air wouldn't suck so bad if you didn't ALWAYS land with that atrocious lag.

What Dragmire said- you have to double jump from the full height of your first jump, and use f-air at the same time you press jump.

It's best used off level, or as a finisher move if your opponent can't punish you immediately (eg, both of you in midair)

well i really dont use it as a finisher what i use is thunderfoot to down tilt you crap like that.

just wish that there wasnt lag on that move. cuz if it didnt i might use it as a finisher.

dair with lag what is this nonsense? just auto lag cancel via thunderstorming
I think he meant F-air.

I wouldn't use F-air against a grounded opponent, but maybe the landing lag isn't too noticeable if both of you are in midair, since both of you have to land first (and maybe he has to travel to you, too). And if he dodges/punishes from the air, well, that would have happened regardless of which aerial you used then, so there's nothing lost with using F-air over any other aerial in that situation.

...mebbe

hummm you have a piont Tenki.

but what i dont get is why you can stop the lag with his thunderfoot and mid air up A,there should be a way to stop all of it i think i have been messing around with him ALOT,and i still cant cant find it but if i do i will post.

also the ppl i play with are so much better that me like alot lol it is really hard to pull stuff off with him.They play ppl like diddy,wolf,fox,lucas,and basicly fast ppl sad face. thats y im trying so hard to figuire this out

Not to sound mean but threads like this are why I stay out of Tactical Discussion. I don't get why people even humor this guy.

Just use fair in combos problem solved. I use it after a down throw because everyone is expecting uair so it comes as a complete suprise. Use short hop fair for suprise attacks after your opponents miss a smash attack (doesnt work on a couple of fast characters).

Whats with you using people like zamus/marth (fast) and ike/ganandorf (slow) Its mixing two opposite things its almost like mixing peanut butter with chocolate absolutely insane :chuckle:

well i like use zamus because i like her combos. Shes just a well rounded char.

Marth i think in MY opinion has to be one of the best players in the game. The tip of his sword omg its nasty combos,really well,and has a spike.

Ike i really hated him at first i really did(my friend owns me with Ike) but i played him and overall hes a fun char to play yah hes slow but powerfull out the butt.

and we come to Gannon well i hang out with a group of ppl who play ssbb and no one was touching Gannon and when i asked why everyone said the same thing "He sucks cha-cha!!!" and i was like every char has it uses am i right? well i picked him up and saw all that lagg *sigh* but i never gave up i wanted to be a decent Gannon player. And i started to like him more more and so i really wanted to main him before this turney(in 2 days :p) but no hes not there yet but i will play with marth and dede as my two mains right now
