I think I knwo what that explosion in snakes vid was.

if u watch the video updated today(october 2nd) it shows snake quickly pull out an object and an explosion ka-booms right in front of him. after watching this a few times i figured that the object is a remote for snakes mine move, my theory: press down b to plant mine, press it again to set off the mine, if this is true i think this could be a great strategy for seirous and casual smashers. Your thoughts?

OR, it could be his Standard B?

his standard B is throwing a grenade. It does not require him to press any buttons.

come on watch the vid, its not a grenade

Down B is his Box, so it's not that... I could be that his Down Smash plants a Mine, and using a Down smash again will detonate it...

I came in here expecting some n00bish crap...but you're on to something...we'll have to wait and see, but your theory doesn't seem too farfetched...

how do you know his box is his down b?

how do you know his box is his down b?

because it's SNAKE'S BOX! he uses it in every game, and it's an iconic staple item in the MGS franchise! we've already seen snake using it, and since Down B is the only thing it could be, that has to be what it is! it's common sense really...

Down B is usuaully an Item/Shield.


Like Link.

Good theory, very good indeed.
Snake's move seem impossible to predict at this point...so I have no idea.
