Jigglypuff used rest! But nothing happened...

[Lyric]

Am I the only one that feels that Puff's rest isn't like it was in melee? In melee I could smack people with it all the time, but in PM I feel like it should be hitting, but it doesn't, and when it does, I feels like it shouldn't have. Has anything changed, or am I just being really weird? I want to get my rest back on.

You probably still have all your HP left. Or you got taunted.

 

[Revven]

Rest is unchanged from Melee; same size hitbox and stats.

 

[5-oNe]

yeah i think you just have to practice it a little more. it usually works fine for me

 

[Lyric]

Ok thanks, maybe it's just the visuals that are throwing me off, with that spark and everything.

On the topic of rest:

Does uthrow>rest work on anyone aside from spacies?
Who is dthrow>rest guaranteed on?
How exactly does jab reset>rest work?

My apologies for the questions, but I recently switched over from brawl and need to understand how P:M Puff works.

 

[tripwire]

I'd imagine Up-throw>Rest works on all the fast fallers. Like Diddy, Lucas, Cpt.Falcon. I'm pretty sure Down-throw>Rest only works with bad DI. Jab reset Rest is pretty much literal. Jab them on the ground they get up then Rest. I'm pretty sure you have to wait a split second because of the invincibility they receive when standing up.

Also is it just me or do jab reset not work everytime?

uthrow rest ONLY works on spacies. it doesnt work on the rest of the fast fallers. dthrow rest will work on almost anyone except floaties that is with little or no di which can be fairly hard to get since her dthrow animation is so long anyone should have time to react to it. and i had a little trouble with jab reset-rest combo for awhile then i just practiced. best way i can describe it is hit them nair,bair etc. jab them. (next part is all while they are getting up) and run into them until the point where you see them being pushed by your body. then you have to short hop towards them and rest. because the hitbox is almost inside her...also to see jab reset at its best watch hungrybox in melee. he usually does it atleast once a match.

this is pretty awesome but I find footstooling very hard to pull off in project melee.

 

[Chibi-Chan]

... You can Footstool in P:M? Haven't seen a single one in months of playing.

 

[Kally Wally]

You can, but it's mapped to up-taunt instead of jump, so you won't do it on accident.

 

[jruzzin]

I feel like part of the problem is probably just that you're fighting new characters. Different moves, different sizes, can be tricky to adjust to.

WHAT!? This is why Project M needs a good changelog >.<

So can you map uptaint to Y/X? I only use one of those! Let's seeee!

Thread Revival!


Changing moves was something that was in Brawl. You can map your moves differently, turn off tap jump when you use the Control Stick, and all that fun stuff.

 

[Kally Wally]

I'm pretty sure he just didn't know that taunts are the new footstool. The fact that he even mentioned rebinding controls tells me that he knew it was possible, but he didn't know if you could rebind taunt buttons.

 

[SoulPech]

I mean...it's an option on brawl to update the D-Pad, so..


lol.
