even shining? i feel that it may not increase horizantle distance, but while getting knocked back and you shine and jump out of it i feel it definetly stops alot of the momentum. But i could be completely wrong haha

magus had some gifs of two foxes getting hit with the same move at the same time (side by side gifs), then recovering, 1 with DJ no aerial, 1 with DJ and aerial, nothing changed, at all, it was all the same, it's just to look cool on the way back

or two characters of some sort

and no
the shine actually pushes you up/away more than if you just DJ'd

but DJ can cause you to die up

i think it stops SOME -VERY LITTLE- horizontal movement (dj)

Shine does stop momentum.

Magus just proved it isn't better than just double jumping out of the stun.

So if your flying off the screen and you don't want to die your best best is to doublejump. Shine is perfectly acceptable to stop momentum/stall otherwise. You just don't gain anything distance wise than if you just double jumped in the first place.

I wish I knew how to get shield pressure that consistent. All my ideas of practicing it usually doesn't help me when I play people.

mango wins apex all fox?
if he can get around HBOX's jiggz then yes...he's already proven he can beat Armada and m2k's marth without puff. He's also proven to be a pain in the *** against Hbox with puff just watch Winterfest vids. Id rather he go puff against Armada/M2k in GFs if he gets on e of those 2...just for nastalgia reasons. Puff vs. peach/marth is epic.>of course m2k will only go marth against mango's puff once or twice like usual and if he loses a match then he'll switch to fox.

Mango also beat m2k's sheik, and fox(arguably one of the best foxes in the history of the game).

I do this with all characters, I just think in a match I speed everything up and that ruins it. The day I manage to stay calm and keep my finger speed normal like in practice will be a happy day.
