Nope.
will there be vids up eventually?
But still it can be situationally killer. Like if Marth uses his side B twice and is below the ledge within Up B distance, You can use Warlock Kick and have the worst case scenario be a trade. It's specifically a tool for edgeguarding people who are returning from below the stage but with proper timing I can't see why it can't be a good edgeguarding option.
Oh wait, I was watching that. It didn't click that that was you until just now, derp. That was some solid play.
I noticed that too, ha. Specifically, in the third game against Prime I tried peppering in more Flame Choke when I realized that would be landing crazy frequently if I just, you know, used it. Didn't really start landing them until my match against #FreeToby, but I played like trash in that set anyway so it didn't really matter.
Musashi Miyamoto, one of the most famous Samurai, said something similar once “The important thing in strategy is to suppress the enemy's useful actions but allow his useless actions” . There is another quote about winning - in order to achieve victory, one should concentrate on not losing. Hope that makes sense.
Vids aren't up on Youtube yet (I'll post them to the video thread when they are), but here's the twitch archive: http://www.twitch.tv/62bitgaming/b/517362608?t=494m0s
Grats dude, you've done better than me, I've only been as far as top 8s a few times >.<
Ha, personally, it's my favorite way to kill fast-fallers. Seeing all the pieces fall into place is very satisfying.
You should embrace that video evidence rather than dwell on it. Watch those vids and see what it is you're doing that's getting you hit, and what it is you could be doing that would work better in some of those situations.
good stuff. 8:30:45 i didnt realize you could jump from the ledge into an aerial so quickly in pm. you cant do that in melee lol
It's incredibly useful, I would recommend working it in to your repertoire. That, along with ledge invincibility, gives you a lot of extra range while edgeguarding.
Will do.
wise words indeed.
Ah good, you're coming to that, we can finally get in those friendlies that never happened at Polybash.
Maybe? Though if Leon were to team with a Snake player I would think it'd be TO Joe
It take's experience brah!
Yeah, i think Bandi mentioned it a few days ago too.
Why not X? I always use Y to jump so that's what I have it set to. And yeah, this tech is good ****. Someone actually just brought it over to the Mario forums too so everyone's freaking out over there, though we don't have a stomp to capitalize with.
well, the fact that ganon is kind of bad overall, matchup-wise, helps to temper the amazing awesomeness that is playing him : p
like, if they're shielding, it makes them drop shield?
It's even better than that. It makes them bounce on the ground if they miss the tech, which they probably will at this point in the meta, and leads to a free dair that will pop up them up. At low percents, this can lead into ANOTHER FOOTSTOOL, which leads into another dair that pops them up. I can't remember who posted it, but somebody has a video up where they combo a Snake at 0% with a down throw -> footstool -> stomp -> footstool -> stomp -> stomp and it could have even added an aerial flame choke onto it. **** looked so sexy.
