Nair-still sexy?

[linkskillsKILLS]

Yes.

But seriously, the reason I was posting was to let you guys know (if you didn't already) that the nair does more damage and knock back when you hit your opponent from the initial extention of the leg rather than hitting someone while the leg is fully extended. This is the "sweetspot" of the kick.

I would make a vid but its easy to test if you want to be sure. Go to training kick the comp by falling into them with a Nair then restart the comps damage and sweetspot the Nair, you will see the difference.

I did not see this pointed out so i thought i would put it out there, sorry if I am posting old news.

P.s. Do you like the new nair?

I don't like the new nair as much as Link's old nair, the old nair started hitting at frame 4 and didn't stop until the move was over. This new nair seems to have SOME ending lag! Of course, Link's nair in melee was amazing so nothing can compare. His Brawl nair is pretty decent though, with it being lagless and all.

Just so you know, this is pretty much the definition of a sex kick, except for doc in melee, whose nair gets stronger as you hold it out, but that's an exception unless there's another in brawl.
