Meta Knight Q&A Thread

[jorgen aune]

sorry for my influence but, MetaKnight is: (extremly) overpowered, easy to learn and play, overused and should be banned in all serious fights and turnements. =/ "Victory is my desteny, even if the guy that use me sucks in brawl... because it is my desteny!"

 

[The Real Inferno]

That was the greatest question ever and I am now totally convinced to give up Meta Knight, amend my evil ways, and main Ganondorf.

No, he's definitely trolling. As someone who trolls the Metaknight forums, I can tell you that I definitely know trolls when I see them.

I use Ganondorf instead of sandbagging. True story.

I play with it on, it just feels better that way. uair strings work way better with tap jump on, and I guess im just more used to tap jump

 

[Aesthetic]

I play with it on as well. It helps with uair strings, and Shuttle loop.

Watch actual matches, not combo videos, you'll learn more.

Yeah, just watch anything recent with M2K and you'll see the way an amazing MK plays.

 

[oOJaseOo]

k i just wanted sumin good to watch is all, this M2K wats his youtube name? anyone know? same for u dojo wats yours? iv seen one of the matches against santi and that made me to go toon link/meta knight instead of pure toon. thx for the help guys means alot <( '-' )>

 

[Babar-Thorbald]

Just go to the mk video thread...
Then, If you want to see the recent matches of m2k, just write "ecrc m2k" on youtube, then you'll just have to choose the video you wanna watch .

 

[oOJaseOo]

thx man will try that ',;D

what's mk's worst stage(s)?

Green ****ing greens

 

[Staco]

MKs worst stage is situational.
You have to look mks opponent to find the best stage versus meta.

 

[Tbagz]

hey guys Tbagz here again wanting to improve over a new matchup.

some one in my crew has improved ALOT and his olimar now beats me on the regular when i used to always win.

how does he not? if MK approaches olimars grab outranges all possible attacks and out-prioritizes the tornado, if i approach with a short hop d-air, or even a normal Dair, the U-air punishes him, olimar is to light to combo and can normaly Nair out of ever possible set of attacks MK is trying to pull off. and he overall just has more Range then MK

-my recent post on my crew forum during a discussion.

what can i do to beat olimar? i learned to never glide attack or i get punished, his U-smash stops me from being able to approach from the air, if i try to foward approach i just get f-smashed or grabbed. and the short hop normally isnt high enough to not get hit.

suggestions please?

 

[brinboy789]

im not dojo, but are you talking about when your gliding? then you either press A do a glide attack which btw has virtually no lag or press b to cancel the glide

Huh? You mean you need help getting the correct distance that cancels it with a landing, such as that used for "Halberding?"

Green ****ing greens

No way. MK can blow up bomb blocks without getting hit himself.

Staco, what you say is always true for counterpicking with any character, but the stage that gives MK the most disadvantages in general is Yoshi's Island (Melee).

I would CP Rainbow Cruise or Delfino, and you can force him into the air that way.

 

[oOJaseOo]

learn from it do a normal approach like ya would but stall if he trys grabs he misses then u punish, if u learn his grab distance u can then if your close enough charge fsmash if hes at 60-70% or use MT or start a fair combo dont let him touch the ground then just glide back while he cant recover and drops but make sure u dont take him high enough so he can just get back and in time he'll learn not to try grab u but i dont rlly know alot about olimar cause i rlly dont like him. hope i helped ',;D

Lee is one of the best MKs in the country; he placed 3rd at HOBO 11 behind M2K and Azen. I'm pretty sure he knows how to cancel his glide

So I should invite him to the MKBR?

Oh, he was just spamming? >_>

It's not my fault that there's a Lee and a LeeHarris who play MK and that I can't keep them straight!

 

[Overswarm]

With meta knight, how should I approach spammy campy toon links?

Tornado when he is throwing a boomerang or arrow and doesn't have a bomb in his hand. If he has a bomb in his hand, stay near enough to where you can jump over the bomb and fair if he approaches. If he throws the bomb and isn't approaching via the air, tornado him. Repeat ad infinitum until you can get off an up+b, d-smash, or f-smash and then edgeguard him.
