MetaKnight Guide By Kappy

[AlmightySo]

If you haven't heard WindyCitySmash ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqLYyPcx0tOY5MuOhLvKISw ) has been doing video guides with commentary on characters recently. One of the newest (uploaded yesterday) is one on MetaKnight.
( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNocgY7rhbM&list=UUqLYyPcx0tOY5MuOhLvKISw) This guide is lacking some things and couldnt cover everything, its only 1 hour long btw, but it still covers many basics and A.T with MetaKnight and can be very helpful to new/seminew players. It also has info for more experienced players.

eh.. I don't really like these long and broad types of guides. I think it's better to make short and sweet videos that discuss one certain aspect, that is important to the character. With the shorter videos, rehearsing what you wanna say is viable and you can be a lot more effective, when trying to deliver your message.

This is not my guide btw. It is Kappy's.

I get what you're saying but real talk seems like they do try hard to make these and it is for the better of the community. You should be more grateful :\

Wow I was actually about to post that exact video here because I just found it and it's pretty awesome lol

Obviously he doesn't cover every little thing about MK but it's super good for basics or just improving what you already know, plus the character matchup section is good for a rough outline of what you should know.

Yea i know alot about mk but its nice to use it for review and it taught me a few things.

I agree. With longer videos its much harder to remember things.

For those that watched the video, when he was doing the double u-air in a single short hop... I'm really struggling with it. It feels too slow to switch from the C-stick from the X button in such a short time. For those of you who do this, did you switch Z to jump, or do you have to use the A button to do the aerials? Thanks in advance.

I just use the A button. I'll either do Y -> Up + A -> Up + A or Y -> Up + A -> C-Stick Up. It's easier to do it this way if you have Tap Jump off, but it's not necessary. You might want Tap Jump for some other things too, so just make sure you don't use it if you turn it off.

If someone thinks it's in a poor format, and that it could be done better they should be able to voice that without someone telling them they should be happy they got anything. That's some bull****.

In regards to what you guys were talking about, longform guides work much better when written out than in videos. In a video format it just seems boring and hard to navigate.

You're just using a dumb argument man. If people told me the Mario guide needed work (which some have) I wouldn't tell them they should be happy I worked on it at all. I'll improve it for them if I can, and if it doesn't suit their fancy that's fine. Saying "be grateful there's anything at all" is just a non statement.

Tbh you sound like your just trying to start an argument. I never said FU ez you suck be happy they gave you a guide. I said he should be more grateful.

Not trying to instigate man. It's at least something that the guide made it here. I just didn't agree with the way you responded to some criticism on the guide.

I short hop with the control stick (which is hard) and up-air both times with the c-stick. That might not be the best way to do that, but I don't use custom controls (besides setting X to grab).

PM-Claw for the win!

Claw is 4newbz. Cuz luk at Dark. Mayley tek skell gawd, dus nawt use claw.

Claw is pretty good, but tbh its kinda meh for MK. He doesn't really need it. Uair waveand is a much better juggle/pressure option than double uair imo.

 

[Chesstiger2612]

I do use it mainly because the c-stick is always available and I have a much easier time to do momentum-controlled aerials. Tbh, you are right about MK not needing it, but I play multiple characters (most just for fun but still )

You play claw? Like you're holding the controller with one hand clawed all the time?

 

[Chesstiger2612]

Right hand (all fingers, from thumb on):
C-stick / B / Y / Z / R (set to attack)
Can only recommend it, works fantastic for a broad set of purposes. Only difficulty could be the difference to Melee where something like remapping R is not possible.
