Yeah, you're right. Probably should have explained myself better in the previous post.I'd actually be careful about strictly following Melee Falcon guides. Falcon can't rush in as hard in this game so his game has emphasis in different places in P:M.
You can't short hop off the edge. The only jump that can be short hopped is your normal grounded jump.does anyone know how to knee someone who is edge guarding when falcon is grabbing the edge? I try to shorthop knee off the edge but my falcon always does a complete jump so its easy to predict
Good catch, I had only just realized that he was ledge jumping while trying to ledge hop.If you're asking about the actual mechanics of how to ledgehop (in comparison to the normal jumping get-up that occurs when you just press jump while hanging on the edge), you have to let go of the edge (this can be done by pushing either the C-stick or Control Stick down) and then immediately double-jump.
It is indeed possible, you just have to be extremely quick with the Bair. What button/stick combination are you using when you're trying to do this? I was only able to do it by adjusting my grip in way that would be completely unpractical mid-match (but for testing this it did the trick). I normally use C-stick for aerials, and I was never able to get my thumb from Y to the C-stick fast enough doing it that way. Perhaps with practice I could get it, but it's also possible that the only way to pull it off is to use control stick + A to execute the Bair so that you can basically mash Y and A at the same time.Hey I was watching a melee vid and it was showing the ability to edge guard with aerials and still grab the ledge. Is this still possible in pm? I can't seem to do it, however it may just be my timing or button presses.
Yeah i'm testing it some more right now, and it seems that the only way i can get it is if I use a claw grip, which I don't normally use. Damn I feel like this is a pretty safe option to edgeguard.It is indeed possible, you just have to be extremely quick with the Bair.
