Lightning Kick

[Canvasofgrey]

I didn't see any thread about this in particular, so I was just curious about this.

Whenever I execuete a second jump and Fair or Bair at the same time, Zelda does her lightning kick while still carrying the momentum of the second jump. I'm wondering if doing this would also make the sweetspot on her Lightning Kick bigger, because I seem to score much more sweetspoted lightning kicks this way.

Then again, it just might be some spacing issue.

I havn't heard of this before! Sounds quite interesting.

It would be really cool IMO if we all take snap shots of every lightning kick we do and in every situation that we do it, and then build up a gallery in order to understand more about the sweetspot!

It most definitely could. Try using this code:

Press Start to freeze the game(don't worry, the music and sounds are unaffected).

Press Z to step through frame by frame.
Press Start again to unfreeze the game.
(The new Start command is X+D^)

Find what frames the sweetspot hits on, then find how far does she move if she jumps right before doing the atatck so you can carry the momentum. Then compare this to the normal distance she would travel going horizontally. Remember to DI forward the entire time so we can get a good comparison of the total increased possibility.

However, it doesn't let you do a C-stick DI so you can't get maximum distance with that.

PM if you need to know how to get to this stage anyone.....

Based on theory, yeah, it would work.

Fast-falling stretches the hitbox, and fast-falling is neither a move nor a glitch, so it must be reliant on her momentum. I am worried that jumping forward will stretch thit box BEHIND zelda. (This could explain why I sometimes lightning kick characters forward and they fly away in the opposite direction)

Hmmm... Then would this be better if you can conjunction a Second jump and use C-stick Lightning Kick like a retreating Fair or Bair?

Assuming the extending Lightning Kick actually works.
