Did the fair off stage a few times yesterday, felt really good and works like a charm. plus edgeguarding with reverse upair is too good as well.

Glad to hear it. Run off fair is one of the hardest things to react to, and it stuffs tons. The tipman is the underrated edge-guard IMO. It's better to be consistent with your tipman than go for dairs, and fairs, and whatnot. Ganondorf is weird.

LMAO carroll.

You know, if you lose to someone, you'll either hype them up or it was a fluke...

In this case, it can be both ;)

Ganon on Ice wasn't even that crazy to me. If I had enough time to record I could do a few things that definitely wasn't on there, and he made some mistakes in the video.

ganondorf tech skill vids need to 1up each other. like if it ain't gonna be better than ganon on ice then don't bother imo. you gotta innovate.
Click to expand...
Agreed.

though to be fair, ganondorf tech skill videos need to not exist past ganon on ice. There isn't much ganondorf can do that isn't already in that video, I mean I can show off a few things but... It wouldn't be worth the trouble.

Combo videos > tech videos


that video is also 3 years old.

yeah when i first watched it i thought it was crazy hard to do half that **** but i can do just about everything in that video and i'm not even that good. still a good tech video considering it's ganon and i like how it's put together. so props to bizarroflame

the one tech i'm really struggling with right now is the ledgehop waveland. i got everything else down. it's just that one ****ing maneuver, which happens to be super helpful for ganon. any advice on the timing anyone? i was able to do it a few times last week, but i can't do it at all anymore.

That shouldn't be too hard. Ledge-dashes are relatively easy, you just gotta not do them too fast.

Try this: Ledge-hop onto the stage and try to see right when you start standing up. Note that. Now try to ledge-hop again, but hit L or R (whichever you prefer) like 1-2 frames before that standing animation. If you did it right, you should slide across. It takes some practice, but it's a really helpful technique in certain situations.

Hey thanks a lot. Using your advice, I got it down in one practice session. I am now versed in all tech ganon can do. Idk why, but this was harder to learn then moon walk

No one is fully versed in all the Ganon tech. I haven't seen anyone do the dair->utilt combo yet.

Also, X WaNtEd X you should most likely learn to ledge-drop uair into regrab. That's very important, and even I don't practice it enough to be useful. It's a very powerful tool against a lot of characters.

I can legehop uair already (as in land on the stage with an l canceled uair). I got that down before I got the legehop wavedash down. I feel like you'd only get the grab if they shielded the uair or they were at a low percent though.

There is this thing called DI makes that combo not work, there's only a certain percentage it works and it's unreliable.

So.. uh yea... It's pointless for a lot of reasons. The only good use of Up tilt I ever saw was Linguini up tilting sheik's as they recovered.

Try doing a reverse wave land of the ledge, edge cancel double uair. **** is godlike vs spacies/c-falcon/Ganon/Sheik. Haven't tested it on any of the other characters. (I don't have a cube, so someone here can try on the rest of the cast for me: Renth?) Oh where were you? You know I got you on the Falco MU

I'm also down to do that Ganon tech vid. Bizzaroflame stealing all my tricks. :laugh:
