Meta Knight Unmasked: A Dimensional Guide to Meta Knight

[theunabletable]

Except it’s not how many hitboxes the attack has that causes it to unstale your moves. Up smash and nado don’t restore your stale moves queue on your other attacks to full (or –3 for up smash). I’m almost positive that up smash doesn’t unstale your moves any more than dsmash or fsmash, and I know for a fact that a single tornado does not unstale your moves any more than, for instance, shuttle loop or dsmash do.

This guide's amazing! I got a Wii on the 29th of June and instantly bought SSBB since i've loved the series since I first played it on N64

I really liked MK but the shuttle loop really screwed me up since i'd do it and end up being off the stage and die lol

From this guide now MK is my main since i'm infinitely better with him now, thanks!

EDIT: Sorry for the double-post...my internet's been slow lately so I pressed reply a second time and..ya :S

Very nice so far! Much better than the old aged guide!

 

[Ragnar0k]

yeah tornado does not refresh all of your moves just because it can hit 9 or more times.

i thought diddy was considered a counter?

 

[FD96]

i thought diddy was considered a counter?

My guess is that he is only a counter if the MK doesnt know the match up, such as using the bananas against the diddy.

 

[Kaffei]

i thought diddy was considered a counter?

Not at all.

 

[-LzR-]

Diddy isn't that hard as people say. M2K, the biggest MK representative just doesn't know the MU too well. Falco is the MK counter, as far as MK counters get...

 

[Player-4]

Falco is no more of a counter than Diddy or even Snake. I think all those match ups are 55-45.

 

[Ragnar0k]

Nobody is an mk counter, as of now at least.

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

Diddy isn't that hard as people say. M2K, the biggest MK representative just doesn't know the MU too well. Falco is the MK counter, as far as MK counters get...

I hate LGLs. With even ridiculously easy-to-beat planking (think grab ledge->drop->jump, fall a little 5x sticking near the ledge->regrab), the matchup becomes beyond horrible for falco. Srsly.

Also, nobody counters MK. Diddy is getting worse and worse, Snake is decent but not that good, ICs get daired all day, and Falco is probably your second-best bet after snake, but still not that great.

 

[Player-4]

Why is Diddy getting worse? Because Wyatt hasn't doing so hot? Lemme meat ride for a sec, Gnes has been stepping up his game big time against MKs with his Diddy. It's not getting easier, at least not for me and my region.

 

[Exdeath]

Is that so?

More MKs are learning the matchup, and it's getting figured out.

Is that so?

Pretty sure. Just be careful as ****. And counterpick them as gay as you can. Try to push for larger starter lists in your region, too.

Nice guide, man.

 

[Rob_Gambino]

Am I the only one who thinks this guide sucks just as much as the old one?

 

[Player-4]

And who are you?

 

[TheJerm]

He's Rob Gambino, the person who thinks this guide sucks just as much as the old one.

 

[KassandraNova]

Well kind sirs, I personally think that this Guide is quite NIFTY!

 

[Player-4]

Be gone Jerm, take your trolling back to the TL boards.

 

[Darkfire150]

Nice guide p4! I ve been a meta main for over a year now and I learned 2 things I didn't know. 1) jumping from the ledge has no vulnerability 2) dair out of sheild is safer than Nair oos. Just those 2 things are going to help my game for raleigh. Thanks!!

Your avatar made me think you were M2k for a second

MK is pro, nuff said, kthx.

 

[IIIIRICK]

so when is this going to be 100% complete?

 

[Player-4]

so when is this going to be 100% complete?

When Orion gives me his write ups on Offense and Defense. I may just finish things up myself if it doesn't happen soon. He's pretty busy so that's the main reason.

But I mean if people want to help out and give me write ups on what I'm missing then I'll add it and we can finish this bad boy up.

 

[IIIIRICK]

Summary: It’s not one of MK’s better moves or more used moves, but unlike Usmash and Jab, Bair has uses. You can cancel the up to the second hit into the ground and buffer turnaround Ftilt, or stay where you are and Dsmash. This is a nifty way to set up into Dmash kills. Otherwise this move is outclassed by its faster counter part, Fair.

just thought id point out the typo, i read this for my 3rd time now and cant believe i missed it the first two times >.>

 

[BlueSuperSonic1]

Thank you for this guide. It has helped become much better with Meta Knight. I have learned many helpful things from this guide. I can't wait till the guide is completely done!

 

[Tokyoinamerica]

Useful information here.

But you should out somewhere that Drill rush is the best move in the game.

 

[lilseph]

did you just say drill rush the best move in the game?

 

[BlueSuperSonic1]

How is it the best? All MetaKnight does with it is recover, but then again there's a chance that you're just joking when you say that.

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

Well, it's pretty amazing on Halberd...

 

[BlueSuperSonic1]

I just saw that video about him being able to go under Halberd now, so the Drill Rush has redeemed itself.
