Luigi/Mario alternative up B guide

[Zantetsu]

Recently eric cartman posted a video on youtube showing luigi's alternative up b which allows you to go farther up instead of going diagnal. Its not to easy to do at first but you eventually get it down. Just like z canceling and other advanced techniques. Basicly what you do is you up b and move your control stick, pad or keys back then forth. For example on the luigi part of the video below i did it in this pattern

Diagnal = D

Up, Up right, Right, Down right, Right, Up right, Up, Up left

And for mario i did...

Up, Up right, right, Up right, Up, Up left, left

Im sure there are other possable ways of doing this but im not to sure. Anyways heres the vid. Click here

Ant-d got any facts?

thats weird as hell. this game just keeps comin out with new stuff...ant-d will probably make a vid that shows it better

Ya. And a better explination

I thought that trick was common knowledge o_O

I remember the first time I did it, like, MONTHS ago (maybe even a year), it saved me. I was coming back from the left side on sector Z as Mario and I was kinda below the cockpit so upb = gg 'cause I'd have slammed under it and died, but I did it anyways because I didn't have any other option and I guess somehow pulled of the vertical one because I was desperated and by luck, which allowed me to grab the ledge. Sexy stuff.

Nephiros is a story telling grandpa T_T

oooo lucky guy. i dunno if i would ever accidentally figure something like that out. like i understand z-teching and DI'ing but something as minute and specific as that? wow...methinks there be a way to do something similar with falcon's upb? perhaps make it go more horizonal and less vertical? that would be a huge help

 

[ant-d]

it is common knowledge Direction effects movement.

Explanation would be nice I can only do this on accident : l

We need something like the bat signal, only it reads "Ant-D"

I see Nephiros has managed to thin the line between arrogance and skill.

I didn't know about the up-B, although I thought I saw a few opponents angle their up-B's particularly high... reminded me of melee. Cool though. I'll practice it.

 

[Thino]

its something you know after playing Roy

 

[_kSo_]

clarification would be lovely

What do you want to do?

To go higher press back before the character moves upwards.

yeah, same thing with falcon, kso.

 

[ant-d]

Nothing

Right

Left 1 frame

There are many possibilities. All the pics are of the same frame, so you can see the difference in height etc.
