Might have found a new desync AT

[Gandolftheman]

I found that you can actually desync Luma into performing a dash attack while Rosalina grabs.

the input for this is dash -> dash attack -> quickly press shield.
Sorry for potato quality.
(oh, and sorry if this has been discovered before.)

I also found that you can Pivot Grab while Luma attacks behind Rosalina. Really hard to do though.

EDIT:

As you can see, multiple failed attempts.

To clarify for everyone, the first thing he posted is a boost grab.

Umm, what's a boost grab?

EDIT: Never mind. Seems this has already been discovered. Locking thread.

I dont know if you found out or not but boost grabbing is cancelling your dash into a longer grab.

To clarify, a true boost grab is done by cancelling the dash with a dash attack but throwing out the grab in the first frame of the attack (Brawl tech, idk if its still 1 frame) before the dash attack animation actually occurs. Without that, it is simply a dash grab. Pretty easily done if your x or y is set to grab you can roll your thumb to do it or if you dont have that, use the c stick and L/R/Z

Yeah, I've always used Cstick and Z.

Ive since changed my controls from Brawl and my R is grab and I just hit/hold A into R. Its not seeming to be quite as reliable, but that may just be me not having the timing down as well as I used to.
