He can follow up with a neutral b when you land on the platform so be prepared to read that.Go to a stage with lots of platforms so it's harder for him to do his grab release stuff on you
lmao, this post is so badThe part of this MU that needs to be focused on is what happens offstage:
Yoshi will most likely die if he gets knocked offstage, provided he doesn't get enough height from DI'ing upward. Metaknight's aerial Shuttle Loop breaks Yoshi's DJ armor at a measly 34%, so if Yoshi doesn't airdodge through it, it's curtains. If Yoshi is recovering low and doesn't airdodge or uair during is Double Jump, footstool him and he's dead.
Lol i know, at Whobo Xyro tried to tell me Yoshi is easily spiked. I watched him fight Polt in the Low Tier tourney, he missed every single footstool and spike on Polt, and the one he LANDED hit the DJ armor rofl. Yes easily spiked. Snake is more easily gimped then Yoshi is rofl.lmao, this post is so bad
you say you can just up b yoshi and he will die
doesnt work, since he can just double jump airdodge = he wont die
you say you can just footstool him, if he doesnt do anything during his double jump, but why would he do that?
So... Based off one match you saw, Yoshi is automatically not easy to spike?Lol i know, at Whobo Xyro tried to tell me Yoshi is easily spiked. I watched him fight Polt in the Low Tier tourney, he missed every single footstool and spike on Polt, and the one he LANDED hit the DJ armor rofl. Yes easily spiked. Snake is more easily gimped then Yoshi is rofl.
He can, but it's retardedly slow. Having a very powerful shield that can't be poked has its weaknesses.He can't jump oos? Wow lmao. What about grab?
For one, i mean singles as doubles is entirely different, and 2, who is slush, sorry but if its not Poltergust (or Deltacod, the only other Y oshi i've ever seen do well in Tournament), im just going to assume they aren't very good.So...

Watch Polt half the time.

Last Stock.
@Kaffei - He can't jump out of it for One.
free shield break lololHe can, but it's retardedly slow. Having a very powerful shield that can't be poked has its weaknesses.
Fun fact, Yoshi's Shield falls down so slowly, that if he shields the laser on Halberd and lets go of the shield button, his shield will remain up until the laser stops
Nah brah, his shield's waaaaaaay too strong for that. Besides, the laser's weeeak.free shield break lolol
Because Yoshi's attempt to solely rely on using their Double Jump Armor to get back to the stage? DJ Airdodge has been less commonly used lately since people actually started BAITING AND PUNISHING IT, despite it being our safest option.lmao, this post is so bad

Ask Judo how to gimp Yoshi. He will give you an essay and you will become enlightened that Yoshi players are borderline sh*tting their pants when they are offstage.Lol i know, at Whobo Xyro tried to tell me Yoshi is easily spiked.

Uhmmmm... well, he can't punish anything out of shield that has less than -17 frame advantage on shield, seeing as that Shield Grab is the fastest punish he has OoS. He can actually manage to drop his shield and then dash grab Metaknight if Metaknight does nado without the lagless landing.I have questions about Yoshi OoS. What can't he do oos that other characters can?
We can only spotdodge or grab OoS. Even the mechanics of the game ****ed us over for our powershield (still forces us to go through the unshield animation).He can't jump oos? Wow lmao. What about grab?
Well **** then. Since I'm free and bad, I guess I don't need to post my input here.For one, i mean singles as doubles is entirely different, and 2, who is slush, sorry but if its not Poltergust (or Deltacod, the only other Y oshi i've ever seen do well in Tournament), im just going to assume they aren't very good.

Goddamn I needed a good laugh from that terrible post.Well **** then. Since I'm free and bad, I guess I don't need to post my input here.
Rofl nice counter argument i guess?Goddamn I needed a good laugh from that terrible post.
@Staco - While those were the best examples I could find from my picky internet and not being very good ones. There's a Match somewhere, where K Prime footstools Polt twice off stage even after he used his DJ while he was off Smashville's Main platform.
While I may not be good, i'm nothing from random since i've been in the scene for almost a Year now, Also the fact your previous post of asking "Who's Slush?", despite the fact I'm the one who posted the video with the Username Sinister Slush for Smashboards... I dunno how you can possibly miss that, While SkyPirate is the Mod for the Olimar Boards and goes as CloverLeaf.And im sorry, but if we are talking top of the meta game here, im not looking at lower Yoshis, and im only going to look at Yoshi's who HAVE done good in tournament setting. You can give your input, but link me videos of any Yoshi who has done well in Tournament just being spiked repeatedly, or hell even once a match (I've seen polt kill himself quite a few times, not get spiked). Using a "Random Yoshi vs Random Olimar on RC" hardly proves your point lol.
I must be in the wrong thread, I thought this thread was about Meta Knight Vs Yoshi, not Who's Easier to Gimp: Snake or Yoshi?but still SNAKES get gimped more then Yoshis do.
Heres what it means to get gimped:

10 seconds into the first match, Razer loses a stock. Link me a video of this happening to a top Yoshi. This is 2 very known and very good players.
Dsmash too. We won't be doing this if we have any common sense though.If he is offstage, grab him out of his DJ or Up B him, if hes spaced + using an aerial.
Meh depends on where you do it. True enough i guessGlide is pretty good.
Yoshis only good options are to run in and USmash or to use FSmash against it.
Use your glide in a clever way and it can give you an opening.
Everytime i see that i imagine thisRemember, if he shields: He can´t jump out of it.
Wait for the Roll/Dodge and punish it.
Egg camping wont work if you're grounded so yeah we usually do it when you get to the air.Egg camping shouldnt be that much of a problem, just run through it and spotdodge while doing so, if necessary.
I might sig this post for being so bad.Hope you aren't fighting Poltergust and you got this.
I'd say i know this matchup fairly well, Seibrik knows it for sure IMMA FORCE HIM TO POST STUFF
You say that here but you said using his Double jump armor to take hits is a good idea. Say we expect a dair and we're gonna just use the DJ to sap it up and we get footstool'd instead. It happens. And for the SL thing yeah again we dont always AD because we assume you're trying to fake us out. If we were to AD and you didn't SL we could get SL'd anyway lol. (talking mid/high recovery here.)lmao, this post is so bad
you say you can just up b yoshi and he will die
doesnt work, since he can just double jump airdodge = he wont die
you say you can just footstool him, if he doesnt do anything during his double jump, but why would he do that?
Meh he isn't really that easy to spike.Lol i know, at Whobo Xyro tried to tell me Yoshi is easily spiked. I watched him fight Polt in the Low Tier tourney, he missed every single footstool and spike on Polt, and the one he LANDED hit the DJ armor rofl. Yes easily spiked. Snake is more easily gimped then Yoshi is rofl.
Jump.I have questions about Yoshi OoS. What can't he do oos that other characters can?
People who play polt don't seem to understand how easily he could be gimped for some of things he does. Also the average Yoshi knows more about his character than polt does. Just sayin.sorry but if its not Poltergust (or Deltacod, the only other Y oshi i've ever seen do well in Tournament), im just going to assume they aren't very good.
Who can't?Kaffei, Yoshi's shield can take a full shield breaker from Marth with a full shield lol
Using Yoshi is a huge headache sometimes. For low/mid this is how it goes usually. If we try to DJ armor we can either get it beat or get footstool'd. If we attack we can get beat by something(if it isn't a spike and doesn't kill us off the side and we DI we can possibly get back from there), If we DJ airdodge if we don't Do it perfectly to land onstage we are screwed and if we get it read its either free damage or a possible gimp. Honestly once MK starts understanding how to bait out what he wants it gets harder.The option still is used a lot and it is actually one of the best options to avoid getting gimped, because you can get punished but not gimped for it!
getting some damage >>> losing a stock
If you're pressuring hard enough and we think its either DJ AD too high or get wrecked, we'll do it. And assuming you read that we're gonna get punished if not gimped for it.(again talking from recovering low)Most characters also cant throw/hit you back offstage after jump dodging back to the stage, so its better to get back to stage and take some damage instead of getting gimped.
If you mix it up with other options (for example if you see your enemy preparing to punish a DJ Airdodge and throw/hit you back offstage) you can avoid getting gimped.
No Vids but im sure i can get a delta testimony in here.Link me a video of this happening to a top Yoshi. This is 2 very known and very good players.
Tornado can be extremely painful for an airborne Yoshi who has to land. It's also a good tool if we're not prepared for it, since we need to be somewhat precise to beat it out.Tornado isn´t save, if Yoshi still got his DJ.
He can beat it by DJ through it and attack.
Or we can Bair it. Bair will clank with the Glide Attack, it can hit you, and we can get a follow up out of it. Usmash and Fsmash are AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL options against it, as are our grabs.Glide is pretty good.
Yoshis only good options are to run in and USmash or to use FSmash against it.
Use your glide in a clever way and it can give you an opening.
Hence why we only really throw eggs when you're jumping/airborne.Egg camping shouldnt be that much of a problem, just run through it and spotdodge while doing so, if necessary.

DJAD is a terrible option in this MU because MK covers it. It doesn't matter what option we pick, SL beats all of them."Because Yoshi's attempt to solely rely on using their Double Jump Armor to get back to the stage?

Yoshi having a high airspeed and living really long makes this option even more efficient.
I may be misreading here, but Polt has nothing to do with me losing my desire to compete in this game. It's just MK. Meta Knight Meta Knight Meta Knight. Against anyone who even knows what they're doing, it's an incredibly difficult, ********, gay match up. It doesn't even have to be a top player. I don't want to name drop here, but the last tournament I entered, I lost to a MK who I've usually beaten, because he now knows what to do. And no offense to him, but he is NOT a top player. He's good, but nowhere near the level of some of the other players of other characters I've beaten. It's just MK screwing me over.It's more or less metaknight vs delta, who almost quit the game due to MK and Polt. I may not have had the results back then, by I was pretty sure some people knew about me despite being limited in where I could go.
You know what's funny? You calling our recovery good IN THIS MATCHUP and then comparing it to Snake's in terms of who's is better, not in terms of tactics for edgeguarding, but in some irrelevant competition that holds no bearing over this matchup. It's also funny that you say we're WRONG when we tell you our recovery is free for MK. We. The Yoshi mains. Who know our character better than you.The large number of Yoshi's coming in here being butt hurt about what they perceive as someone calling Yoshi's recovery good is amusing, especially since the claims that I've seen are that Yoshi is relatively difficult to gimp, when compared to Snake. Yoshi has a hard time recovering above and below the stage. Snake has virtually no chance of recovering from below the stage and has a hard time recovering above the stage. The popular subjective opinion of Meta Knight players who have posted here is that Yoshi is more difficult. Get over it.
For the Yoshi's who are butt hurt over Poltergust: It doesn't matter how much you know about your character when that knowledge isn't doing anything for you hahaha. Poltergust is still scarier than you are for me, or pretty much anyone else who actually has experience vs. him.

I'm sorry i must have missed the part where Stacco said the word snake. I thought this was the YOSHI vs MetaKnight thread. If yall wanna discuss snake here you'll probably probably get a lot more done because you don't seem to want any Yoshi opinions.The large number of Yoshi's coming in here being butt hurt about what they perceive as someone calling Yoshi's recovery good is amusing, especially since the claims that I've seen are that Yoshi is relatively difficult to gimp, when compared to Snake.
