I was messing around with Snake against computers a little bit today because I haven't readjusted to playing via wifi and its delay. I was wondering if this would be a decent tactic to use against characters like Marth. I've only accidentally done it against a Marth computer around 5 minutes ago, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be too hard, if at all, to pull off consistently in a match.
Anyway, finally, here it is. Grenade near ledge>Drop it>Advanced hug (or just jump onto the ledge)
The invincibility frames from the hug will make Marth's recovery go right past you and make him hit the grenade. It won't necessarily kill but it still hurt him and was really flashy. I haven't really seen anyone try or talk about this.
The only thing that I can think of that the Marth could use to somewhat bypass it is using neutral B to recover but there are always going to be times when he needs to ^B to get back on.
If you don't know what hugging or advanced hugging is, look here: http://smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=153930
Couples last things. Very sorry if this is known and used already, and I'll be linking some videos of my Snake eventually to be critiqued by you guys. Random, but they are some nice matches.
Edit: I feel extremely stupid and newby for posting this, since you can just down smash near the ledge or whatever and edgehog/hug. Oh well, maybe it'll just turn into another "Critique my terrible Snake" thread.
