Affinity- RUFIO is a term made up by dmbrandon... who was the first to do it... it's the up air strings to tornado death combo.

actually, i'm pretty sure some places HAVE banned mk... unless they changed their minds ?_?
one state (i don't remember which) declared they banned him a while ago... before many ppl were even debating it... it was pretty stupid. it was funny because whatever state it was didn't have much of a competitive scene anyway.
still, if some places have banned him

I think new mexico banned him and ohio had like some absurd soft ban or something where they didn't even want people using MK when OOS, lmao.

A national ban is unlikely to ever happen.

yeah, that's it. ohio was the one i was thinking of.
when they put up the thread stating this... the first 10 comments were something like this "wait... Ohio actually matters?!?!!?"
:laugh:

everyone thought italy banned him, but he didnt get banned there
they just made a poll, if players want to get him banned or not, but they never did it

I know New Mexico has him banned. Also Louisiana is considering it strongly. Now Xyro is planning to ban him at all Hobos after Genesis.

Looks like I'll be dropping MK soon.

you're dropping him BECAUSE xyro is banning him for the upcoming Hobo tournaments?
or do you just want to use another character?
:(

He's not banned anywhere, and most likely will never be banned. Play him if you want.
Read the question again.

Is metaknight band anywere? And how likely is it he'll be band in the future? I'm just wondering before I practice using him :p
He's obviously asking if MK is in a band.

No, MK is not in a band, but he was a roadie for Mike Kirby before he got real ****ed up on meth.

Meta Knight doesn't have any AT's.
Meta knight has a semi easy to pull off jab lock with Up-air/N-air, footstool, D-tilt, walk, D-tilt, walk, D-tilt, F-smash. At 0-15%

Also, the infinite dimensional capping, which is probably the hardest AT to master in the game with a gamecube controller. Wii mote + Nunchuk and some special third party controllers make this a lot easier to do. Most tournaments ban it, but I say screw them, nobody is going to care if you use this, as long as you don't use it to stall the whole match.

Eh it's a mix of both. Half the tourneys I go to consist of Hobos. Not really but quite a bit. On top of that I've really enjoyed learning some of the new characters I have. In my 2nd MK banned tourney I used Kirby for the first time and continued using Diddy and managed to place 4th out of 70 losing to Razer like my 3rd round in, then losing to PX later on who I had beaten back in winners. I still managed to beat almost half of our PR in tourney and although it was extremely hard, it was soo fun. xD

I love a challenge, and that's all this is. A new challenge. I'm pretty happy with where I've set my name with MK, so Genesis and Evo will be my final tournaments with him.

Most people don't consider IDC an AT due to its ban.

The timing for MK is just a little tighter. Practice it enough and you won't have a problem.

thats what i figured after thinking about Marth and Zss' glide toss.

When i go to do their toss', i can press A+Shield+direction required, simultaneously on Zss/Marth....and it usually goes.

When i try it with MK, it feels like i need to Shield+tilt analog stick in the direction needed----THEN press A after a short delay...its so weird why it happends but ugh thats diff. roll animations for u.

Uhhh...know any thread here with frame data to this? Or at least for the roll dodge animation?

I'll have to check the Marth/Zss boards for info on theirs to see whats up..might be able to get a better conclusion if i look for it abit.

You should just be able to cancel your roll with your C-stick in the direction you want to toss the item.

Getting drilled by AWPers
Have there been any useful applications for the "mach Ftilt" (buffering the Ftilt while doing repetitive Dtilts)? Currently, I really haven't found anything good that could be used for it, especially when the Ftilt can be punished if the 3rd hit is shielded.
