Ledge Chaingrab Videos

[Wobbles]

Now I would normally put this in the Misc. videos section, but nobody is going to care except for other IC players. Odds are, you'll all be turned away by the awful quality and weirdness of it, but... well, that's the risk I take. I had to use my laptop's built in camera to do this since I have no other means of recording.

Chaingrabbing Jiggs: This one is pretty much unwatchable, but here it is anyhow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tzTr9EGa_YU

Once Youtube stops being dumb there will be a Peach and Jiggs vid. You can't really tell what's happening because it's all going too fast and the video is low res, but... hopefully this gives you some idea of the maneuver's potential.

the quality burns my retina....! Good content though, gives the general premise to those wondering how it's done. I'll gladly contribute higher quality vids to this sometime.

On a related note, I ledge chaingrabbed a jiggs from 0-death the other day at winter game fest II. Stuff of legends.

It's also a lot easier to get maximum mileage out of the chaingrab using tilts and blizzards. I know Lep knows that, but for the unaware...

Yeah, if you or anybody else wants to promote the ownage then please, please do it. PM or post the links and I'll put them in the main post where people can see. I think this is a technique worth mastering, and it hurts my feelings when people keep gawking like it's new.

I don't get it, mainly because I can'T see what's going on? Could you explain what's happening and/or how to do it?

I've started doing this more often. I'm getting the timing down.

 

[Wobbles]

Witchking: If Popo down-throws and Nana grabs right as the opponent bounces off the ground, then she will catch them. If you are near the edge, her AI will always try to throw them off the level... this means, in certain instances, she will forward-throw. You can catch the opponent afterwards and repeat the process until you don't have any more room, at which point you can charge a smash and release. It is pretty much inescapable, although I think some DI can make the timing harder. I'm not quite sure, since I just try to do it perfectly anyhow.

This is useful because you can perform it on a vast majority of the cast, including Jigglypuff and Kirby, which is hilarious. It is also, I think, an infinite against Bowser, since you don't have to move at all to re-catch him. He's just too big. I've definitely kept it going into the 400s, but I can't tell if I'm messing up at some point or he's just bouncing too quickly.

My God, Rob, it drove me insane when you did this on Friday to me.

Haha, it was fun to watch though.
