Who ever was giving you Meta Knight advice is a ****ing *******.
Never take his advice again. >;[

Nah, seriously, MK has no legit chain grabs unless your opponent is really dumb enough to just let you CG him.

does tornado really gain priority when you mash b? or is it just because the part with the least priority (the top) is harder to hit?

Frame data threads o.0
Do the MK boards have any data on what kind of frame advantage you get after landing the first/second hits of Fair/Bair? And any other frame advantages lol.

I'm suddenly curious about this.

i hate that feeling, im really on the fence between wario and mk. my mk did well at pound but i feel like i have more control with wario due to his air capability. in the same note, his potential to do good pales in comparison to mk.

What are my options when Wario Dthrows me?


Also, Kirby OWNS Lucas if the Lucas plays aggressive. About 8 months ago I was playing against a Lucas in grand finals. He knocked my MK into losers 3-0. I came back from losers and my MK lost 2-0. So the last game I decided to switch to Kirby and I won 6 straight games to win the tournament.

I'm not saying you shouldn't go MK against Lucas. But if the Lucas doesn't spam and play campy against Kirby, they will get wrecked.

when wario d-throws you can roll away, dodge, jump away, f-tilt. just mix it up

he just combos the **** out of me. TBH its probly because he really knows the matchup, and I don't.
When I play against Lucas, I just stay out of his range and slowly inch closer. When I'm in range I look for PK Fires and the like. When close enough, I punish his laggy attacks. Or are you having trouble when you get inside?

Alright ppl i need some moar help. I am goin to be fighting a very skilled Olimar tomorrow. im wondering what would be a good stage to go to for the match. Keep in mind we are only allowed to pick neutral stages for the match.

Alright, another question. Let's say i've got an Olimar above me @ an 87 degree angle, y'know, like an angle where he is nearly directly above me but behind me JUST enough to where my up-B wont hit him. Should i Uair him or will his Dair outprioritize it/clash with it?

Mmm... in that situation I just either roll/run away or Utilt. But I haven't really faced many great Olimars...

Yes, Utilt has a nice range and active hitbox time, so I'm sure you will be able to hit Olimar before he gets to you if you time the Utilt right. But also remember to mix up your game and still be "unpredictable" (but you probably already knew that).

If he's in that position just wait for him to air dodge then tornado.

edit so I don't double post: What determines when the tornado will have landing lag? It has something to do with the height from the ground when it ends but I don't know the specifics.

If you are able to touch the ground before you go into free fall animation, you will have significantly less landing lag. So basically it really does have to do with how high up you are lol.

Yes, just go into Training Mode or whatever and try different heights, you will find what works and what doesn't.

^^^^@above, his Dair is the closest thing, it's a semi-spike (I think that's what it's called), which sends the opponent horizontally. There's a thread on this, don't know where it is though.
