This may turn out to be a stupid question, but does anybody have any videos of the Ken Combo being performed? I'd really like to know.

This is a viable question but should go into the Q and A. It gets tough sorting through all these new posts only to find a question that should go somewhere else and prolly was already answered.

Thanks much.
I would say it's possible, but a lot harder. I tried doing it multiple times but all of them failed. I suggest just doing fair > reverse up+b which is what I did when I played.

I was hoping that in Brawl, there will be a lot of long, SSB style combos and a few Melee ones. I'm sure a new technique will be discovered in a few months.

Brawl will def. have fewer/shorter combos than either of the previous smashes, due to easier DI and decreased stun time.
It doesn't look good for Ken Combos, and even once you pull them off, they are more likely to survive due to lower stun time.
EDIT: here's my post I made about Ken combos:

Yes. Ken Combo confirmed for brawl.

it makes me laugh how a lot of other classic melee combos got nerfed (and characters), but some how marth almost seems even better and still has the ken combo. i love it.
of course, sakurai would never take it out, I'm pretty sure he likes doing ken combo's too

I know I saw a video where Marth f-aired someone all the way across Final Destination JUST to miss the Ken Combo. He even connected with the d-air, but he didn't sweetspot it. Still, good (or very, very bad) to know one of Marth's staple combos transitioned into Brawl very well.

I think that Olimar could have gotten out of that, but only time will tell if the combo is still viable.
Lots of characters could DI out of ken combo in melee, but most marth's used mind games to keep them in it.

There's another one in here at the end, the last stock. It was like a half Ken Combo.

Lol!! nice to see the old school combo............
there is still hope Xd
just kidding... it seems this time we will practically have to connect the fair with the hilt.... for the enemy to not go too far... and it even depends on their DI.
also, even when olimar was in 54%, he was send with such force.... but the hit lag is noticeabley less.
But is good to see anyways!

Awesome that Ken combo is back. Too bad the range is less than it was in Melee, so it's probably going to be harder to execute.

So regaurding short hop double fair....
In melee I would sh by knicking the bottom of X with my thumb nair and do the first fair with Z and the second with c-stick.
The problem is in brawl I can't do airs with Z so now I can't do double attacks in one sh with chars like marth or toon link or anyone else that can do it since I can't get from the X to A or Cstick fast enough...
How do people do this?

Wii will win.
The Ken Combo is already in Brawl, there is video evidence of it. Also, go to sleep somewhere, you idiot. You have no idea of what you're saying, since you just joined like 2 days ago. For all your "knowledge," look Ken up in Wikipedia.
Ken's a beast!
Finally: KEN COMBO...! In Brawl! Now I will actually become competetive in Brawl.

Heck! thats not the half of it man. The real truth is that everybody on these boards has been dening for years is that all Tournament matches are actually choreographed. Thats right TrainerBlue, competitive smash (like Wrestling) is indeed FAKE! Ken is simply a highly popular paid videogame actor. Hes the F**king Fonse of Smash! Thats why he so overrated but you and I know better TrainerBlue.
