In search of a lagless Snake.

[Reckon]

Ahoy hoy, quick question looking for a quick answer.
What aerials are Snake's lagless ones and at what point in his jump (be it short or full, ff or not) do they need to be executed.
Im working on polishing my Snake skills and so far, theyre looking good.

Nair: Lagless if you complete the animation of the 4th hit. Have to Full Hop it
Fair: Lags in any instance. Can be SH or FH
Uair: Lagless. No catch. can be SH or FH
Bair: Lagless if Snake finishes the animation Can be SH or FH
Dair: Lags in any instance. Can be SH or FH

Well if you're close enough to the ground when you do the Uair there is some wait time. Unless I'm misunderstanding what is being asked...

Yea but the Uair lag is not anything significant, he bounces back to neutral in less than a second.

I use it as a taunt sometimes. xD

I suppose so. And I guess as a taunt it's better than the wide variety of options he has in that department. Just thought I'd mention it. Also if you use it close enough to the ground it doesn't even damage or hit. And that can't be good for his back. I know he's in shape but that doesn't look comfortable.

He sits in a prone position in a cardboard box for extended periods of time. His back is probably a chiropractor's nightmare.

Yeah, you're probably right. Then again he hasn't really made it a secret that he loves that box. Maybe he has some sort of cushioning put in there or some nonsense. Hell, Konami could get some ingame ads with lazyboy if they wanted. "Lazyboy: The preferred cushion of secret agents."

the only "lagless" move snake has with short hop aerials, is his uair.

though u have to execute it pretty fast, otherwise u'll get his spring up animation and have a little bit of lag.
