Link's Real Up-B Cancel

[tw0 side]

wow, great find Seibrik

 

[SexyDoodles]

People really didn't know about this? I thought everyone did, but it was never mentioned because this sucks and is really hard to do. >_>

 

[shadic101]

I don't think this is new but I've been wanting to really look into it. I think it was in SDM's "Perfect Control" where he made Link do ledge cancelled B-ups over and over again really fast. lol

Also, now that I think about it a lot of b-ups have strange edge techs. Bowser, Yoshi, CF, Ganon, and others have things similar to this. Maybe I'm just crazy or naive though. :|

Ganon don't have any edge tricks or not that i've heard of...

 

[Sensei Seibrik]

Ganon don't have any edge tricks or not that i've heard of...

i think he's refering to gannon's ability to drop and jump to hog again, giving him invulnerability. i did however, find a way around that, i was playing sheik, and all i had to do was run off and back air, and it hits...

oh i thot he was talking about his b up and anther way is that u wave dash and take the edge causing them to SD

 

[Sensei Seibrik]

heh thats funny.... but a good gannon can catch it and just get bak on, but this is a good way to put them in an awkward position

 

[Truegamer#1]

Thats cool...

 

[Smasher89]

I haven´t read the twhole thread, but you can do double shieks up-b th is way too, which might works as mindgames but it´s real hard to perform since most often you go off the ledge..

 

[twilight_hero]

Can you do it with YLink as well?

 

[Sensei Seibrik]

i dunno if u can, my guess is u cant cuz I think he's lighter so he may go higher, i could be wrong. I'll try it out later.

 

[linkmanuel]

hey seibrik, really that is a good move, I use in batle, I made a video about that, but not cancelling it. see it, I think to do a better.

[Sensei Seibrik]

thats a real well made vid. and I was thinkin bout somethin while watching it.

Up-b cancel hogging, ledgehop onto level, waveland back, up-b cancel hog again repeat?

that make sense?

if not i'll try to make a vid to show (if its even possible)

 

[technomancer]

This is actually pretty cool... IMO follow with a nair off the stage to catch sweetspotters, and it's probably fantastic against Foxes and Falcos that like to mix up phantasming and foxfiring, allowing you to hit both timings with a double spin. Mindgraines!

ok if you made something like that , don[t forget to tell me

 

[Sensei Seibrik]

will do

Old News...

:/

 

[Sliq]

The fact that the hit is week makes this seem remotely useless...might as well just jab, or ledge cancel Spin onto the ledge, then bair (if you plan on hitting them with a weak spin anyways).

It is cool and all, but there are much more practical alternatives...even more practical impractical alternatives, as much as an oxymoron as that is.

Cool find though. I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but your time would be better spent practicing l-canceling than practicing this.

mY L-cancel if perfect so I try other moves to, L-cancelling if helpfull but not is all.

Well, try practicing your English so your posts are not incomprehensible.

 

[Ensee]

I tried this the other day, it was quite easy to do. I got it on my first try.

 

[Les Money]

so just wondering.... would the hit be weak? cuz from the video that linkmanuel gave up, the animation looks like it would make it a strong hit. and if it is a strong hit than i think it would be kinda useful if you want to edge hog in teams.

 

[ꓰspeon]

lol i discovered it by myself just a week ago. (but it's just a coincidence)

 

[Wave⁂]

I don't know if a 3 month bump is bad... but i have a question about how you do this.

Could this be done with other characters? Like with Samus's Missile? Or is the reason this is possible because he rises into the air a tiny bit?

 

[Sensei Seibrik]

The reason this is possible is because his Up-B does have him move his body up a bit, but also because it slides off the stage, like a few other up-b's. It's done by trying to find the perfect timeing and spacing to do the falling off Up-B, then pulling back, like DI, so he lands back on the level, canceling the animation.

I think that's the biggest explanation i've given of the move so far, and hopefully it helps.
