GOD F*CKING DAMMIT!! I WAS ABOUT TO SAY THAT!!!!! at final destination or other flat stages i do that:

*takes oponent offstage**taunts while they are fliying**jumps towards them when triying to recover to use the knee**if sweetspoted use secnd jump to land in the stage and taunts**if not sweetspoted quickly uses falcon´s second jump+uair for the kill**uses falcon´s amasing airspeed to get near the edge and recovers*taunts*

I was gonna get some matches in at Gold Mine 3 this weekend, but my car overheated on the way to Atlanta, so I spent the entire day getting it back home. :(

I'll give this a good read sometime and see what I can learn or comment on.

This is more guided for mid-level players, I can't guarantee you'd learn anything from it.

If you find anything to comment on, please do.


Edit:

If anyone can think of something to do with the "Stage Specific" lemme know. It's pretty much ******** right now.

*looks at Reflex's avatar/mains*

Does this mean you've dropped PT for Falcon Reflex? Either way, you're still the best that ever was for PT. Plus you've added serious man points not like you need anymore in your account) for picking the manliest character in the game.

On topic = How good is N-Air > Up-Air > Knee? Isn't it just the sweetest thing ever?

There are often tournaments in the Atlanta area, though most are a little north of it. For example, there's one at UGA next Saturday (Bulldog Brawl), and there's one at an anime convention on October one (Anime Weekend Atlanta), the latter being one that I'm helping with seeding, rules, and such. You should see about stopping by.

I haven't dropped PT, but I have been using Falcon more often than him lately. They're both serious secondaries currently, but I can't say much right now, since I need an English copy of Brawl again to be able to practice at home (hopefully that will be fixed in a couple of days).

Does N-Air -> U-Air combo? If so, I imagine the end of that would be very percent-and-DI-dependent, as F-Air is only going to hit if they panic and airdodge into the ground while they're close to you after the U-Air. It requires a lot of things to work in your favor when they don't actually have to, so I doubt that it is at all reliable.

Well it mainly only works on CPUs, though i have had it work when I've been knocking someone offstage with N-air, then I land, and run off with an Up-air, then F-air.

Probably should have mentioned that I land in between hits.

From what I remember n-air > u-air only works on people like Jiggz and samus, maybe other floaties.

He's tied with falcon in weight iirc, and we're like on the heavy end of the middle. It gets kind of complicated because of fast fall speed. I need to go make sure it works on jiggz, I've forgot about most of this stuff.

Not sure if anyone has nooticed this mindgame/technique but, when you're going after your enemy offstage and you try attacking with the Knee, if you miss the first one and don't sweetspot it, you can use your 2nd jump and it will connect most of the time since they will most likely try to get back towards the stage. My friend found this out and it works on a lot of people, I even returned the combo to him today when having some Falcon dittos.

Explaining things has never been my strongsuit. Let me try a simplier way.

Non-sweetspoted Knee > Knee of Justice.

Yeah, works with Uair too in a more reliable way. It's things that have been done since 08 I think, but were never really taken seriously.
