Snake Moves
I havent been in this thread for about a month =O
Anyways, Snake is my 3rd main, and I play him, A LOT. Here's what I know about Snake's moves:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Snake has many great moves to use at his disposal. Even though he likes using all of his moves, these are the most common of them:
F-Tilt: The most Strongest, long range, and annoying F-Tilt EVER. Uses it when your ever near him, or when he tries to approach you. Does about 20% damage, hits 2 times, and can stop our fully charged AS's (when your at low %'s)! A well-timed DT, Shieldgrab, or just a quick roll behind him will stop it. This can also be very predictable.
Grenade: Snakes most common move. Used Offensively and Defensively on you. It has nice damage and explosion radius, and can be picked up by pulling it out and pressing shield. You will see A LOT of these on the field; it has "Mindgame effects". Watch out for the Grenade Cooking, and whatever you do, do NOT pick up a Grenade and try to throw it back at him (unless he's in the air)! When he does the Shield Grenade Drop, it automatically takes the Grenade in your hand, and drops it below your feet (this is called Grenade Stripping). Spacing and mabye even an AS at long range can stop these annoying things. Also, try grabbing him more often: his Grenade Countering can really hurt you.
C4: The coolest of Snake's moves. With its great damage, knockback, and exploding radius, this little thing really changes the mood of the battle. He uses it for a lot of things:
1. Platforms- Its explosion radius makes it able to hit us under the platform he plants it on. WATCH OUT FOR THIS.
2.
Edgeguarding- Jumping high, droping, and detonating it anywhere makes this dangerous. DT it when its above you and when you hear "Now!". Also, watch out when he drops it off the stage and near you when your trying to recover; it hurts.
3.
Random locations- With his built in "Mindgame potential", he can plant it anywhere, including on you! Always keep an eye out for the C4 and where he plants it, and if he ever gets one on you, either run to him and stick it on him, or, like I said, DT when you hear "Now!".
Those are just some of the things his C4 can do. The C4 is one of Snakes best moves; WATCH HIS PLANTING! Oh, and he can also use the C4 to recover. It resets his Up-B move, witch could be a problem.
Up-Smash: The only Up-Smash that shoots a projectile. It is used greatly for Edgeguarding, or when your above him. You'll have to time DT very well when your above him, and just use some Airdodges when he Edgeguards with it. Also, aim your Extremespeeds perfectly; his Up-Smash > your recovery game.
Mortar Slide: A sliding Up-Smash. It moves really fast, and is highly spammable. This is VERY predictable; just use a DT, or chunk an AS in his face when he does this, nuff said.
N-Air: his most common Arial move. His 4 times, does about 20% damage, and has awsome knockback. Space yourself from this move, as it can really hurt you, REALLY.
Nikita: One hell of a projectile. He's able to control the thing, which gives it cool mindgames. Its mostly used for Edgeguarding, and screws around with our recovery. It also goes right through our AS's, no matter what size, but messes up the way the rocket goes. He usually follows up with another Nikita or a F-Tilt. Rolling behind it, jumping over it, or mabye even a DT should help with this.

I hope I helped. Snake looks like a tough fight for Lucario
) for X-C currently, and after I'll be too tired to post anything, hehe. Sometimes within the end of the week I'll get some stuff up.
