Excellent guide Rusty. The hitbox pictures are classics.

*Wonders if he remembers me*

*Remembers*

Played you on Wi-fi long, long ago.

[SolidLegend]

WOW! That's a good thread. Thanks! I learnt a lot from this:D

 

[SuSa]

I don't care if this is an almost -unneeded bump.

Whoever has the keys, PM me I lost mine.

I want to update this with %'s dealt from moves, and a few other things (when I get the time.....) which includes using the frame data we have from Eternal Yoshi for certain things, and other things if I can think of them.

 

[abit_rusty]

edit: eh you know what, nvm. ignore this post.

Just a hearty best of luck to all the new snake players.

 

[Wild ARMs]

[marth_is_not_a_girl]

This guide really helped, my snake has already improved within one week of reading this, thank you abit_rusty, you help people see the true potential in snake.

 

[Gadokan]

Great guide, the C4 part of the guide interested me to try using it some more. Most of the stuff on the guide was good and its good to know I'm right on track :]

 

[exdia_16]

This should help me alot my friends snake is so much better then mine so i will practice this under his nose. any new AT can u send them to me.

 

[ungulateman]

Can't you drop grenades off ledges? It didn't say anything in the analysis.

 

[StealthyGunnar]

Nice guide, I'm not sure if this is noteworthy or not but... If you execute a mortar slide sloppily, ( slowly ), the dash will stay out longer and you can actually hit them in the middle of the dash and then continue sliding and hit them with the usmash. I've only done it twice though, it might not be something you want to rely on.

That's the "contact mortar slide" where you buffer usmash right after the dash attack connects.

 

[Supreme65]

It's All about weight and DI'ing. Punish the character with low killing power. Ulilts

 

[Supreme65]

Snapping the opponent's necks yesss. Only if they have one

 

[IxxI]

Are we ever going to update this guide?

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

Are we ever going to update this guide?

I doubt it. :/ Besides, space with Ftilt and camp with grenades has been part of the motto xD

 

[Dark Zeus]

Awesome guide. Helped me quite a bit. Thanks abit rusty.

 

[*CT*]

I learned some new tricks not really lol but it explained or made me remember some things that I forgot

 

[PinkFloydEchoes]

Something worth mentioning:
when falling in the air in a certain direction, you can press b and a direction really quick (like changing directions on falcon punch) to completely change your DI as you fall, and confuse opponents trying to juggle

 

[SuSa]

B-reversing, extremely known. But thank you for trying to contribute.

 

[Berserker.]

Nice guide but I know all of these techniques but still nice.

 

[N.A.G.A.C.E]

this is very helpful i have not played brawl for a while and i was talked into going to a tournament and since i did not want to hurt my brawl+ zelda a friend talked me into picking up snake. This thread has made it so my snake is pretty solid after only two days (still not perfect but i am able to compete against good players already)

 

[BloodySnake]

I think I know why the C4 has to be place out of a Cipher. When you place a C4 in normal fall, you press the down button, causing Snake to speed up, falling past the C4 before he can detonate it. put, when dropped out of a Cipher Snake doesn't speed up, but instead falls in tandem with the C4, allowing him to detonate it.

 

[-Ran]

Er. Missposted.

 

[Berserker.]

Wow, I thought this thread was outdated?

 

[SwordsRbroken]

I've been trying to get better with snake, but this guide helped a ton! Thanks for making it!

 

[6Mizu]

Isn't this outdated?







It doesn't matter.....it still goo info.

 

[BloodySnake]

Yes, it is... also, try box spikes, nikita juggling, and sticking people with C4.

 

[6Mizu]

meehh.....Nikita...isn't reealy that good. Don't use it too often.

 

[Berserker.]

Well the C4 info was really in-depth and useful

 

[Doc71890]

I think i love you

 

[6Mizu]

WTF!?!?!

are you talking to Breserk?
LOL

 

[$Lil' Gerald Is In Dat Style$]

meehh.....Nikita...isn't reealy that good. Don't use it too often.

Use Nikita when you're way in the air.

 

[6Mizu]

Use Nikita when you're way in the air.

Do you mean as an Anti-juggle when you say "way in the air"? Cause I think everyone know that.
