You da mang

 

[Jon?]

stop air dodging

 

[Stockfield]

Yeah use down B instead.

 

[stingers]

best DK advice ever

 

[TheLastCacely]

stop air dodging nub

 

[Gardevior]

Don't b-moves increase momentum?

 

[stingers]

well that depends doesnt it

they dont really increase momentum either my understanding is they just fastforward you to where you'll be if you don't stop it at all...or something. at least thats how foxes shine works...i think

anyways...stuff like dk's up b and gaws down b and zelda wavebounce neutral b and yoshi side b completely stop all momentum...but only after you cancel the initial kb through an airdodge or aerial

 

[Gardevior]

Those complete momentum cancelling things are all the exceptions that prove the rule, though.

 

[stingers]

i guess but i explained in the paragraph above it anyway

 

[Gardevior]

Man, thanks stingers!

I guess you just elaborated on what I said, but yeah!

 

[stingers]

yeah i guess so lee

 

[Ragnar0k]

DK's b reversed headbutt works too.

 

[TheLastCacely]

mk's drill rush works

 

[Ragnar0k]

Do you have to b reverse it or anything?

 

[stingers]

i think mk's drill rush and pika's skull bash don't actually cancel all momentum they're just effective enough at fighting against the opposite direction momentum it basically does the same thing...though it means you can still die if you try doing it too close to the blast zones because it won't stop backwards momentum right away

 

[Ragnar0k]

pika's skull bash doesn't cancel momentum at the start, It does once he actually starts going though.

 

[TheLastCacely]

warios fart is a bucket break

 

[Stockfield]

I was referring to billfest when shady air dodged then used down b to try to stopped from dying........it didn't work. But Jon? and I got a laugh out of it lol.

 

[TheLastCacely]

shady doesn't believe in momentum canceling. he's above that.


















and also lose's to gdx at herb 2

 

[I am Seth]

I watched that set. I need to just go diddy on him I guess. lol

 

[Shady Penguin]

stop air dodging

Stop placing at tournies....oh wait.....

 

[TheLastCacely]

oh wow......

 

[Uncle]

Even I'm better at momentum canceling than Shady is. You won't see me airdodging.

 

[TheLastCacely]

^ This is true.

[stingers]

shady, hold down on the control stick (after appropriate DI) and use your fastest aerial. now you're a momentum cancelling pro

 

[Gardevior]

If he holds down on the control stick and does an aerial, it'll be dair! :O

 

[stingers]

c-stick it son

 

[Gardevior]

Does that actually work? I'm not forced into Dair by holding down?

I could try that next time I play Brawl. Generally I just c-stick > down.

 

[stingers]

yeah it works o.o if your fastest aerial is dair then you just have to hold down cstick because it inputs fastfalling every frame you're holding it...so its actually superior

 

[Gardevior]

C-stick fastfalling is stupid but I don't play any characters with a fast dair.

 

[Shady Penguin]

^ This is true.

inb4dannyrages

I'm too content with my winnings to do such a thing.

 

[stingers]

if you're content with losing to a ROB, who is C-tier below Pit, 3 times in a row, twice on your best counterpick one after another (thanks for the salt), then you're easily amused, danny

 

[TheLastCacely]

cocky much?

edit: this was intended for danny, but it works with stingers aswell.

 

[stingers]

there was no cockiness. i didn't claim anything. simply stating the facts.

 

[Shady Penguin]

there was no cockiness. i didn't claim anything. simply stating the facts.

Same here, haha.

And to humor you Stingers, ROB being C-Tier doesn't really matter when the match-up is only 55-45 in Snake's favor at best

 

[stingers]

if you can show me any videos of a good rob beating a good snake, i'll believe you. character board matchups are as useless as jon in doubles.

 

[TheLastCacely]

lololololollololololololll!!!!!!!!!!!!

what is up with the jon bash today?

 

[Sushi-Man]

if you can show me any videos of a good snake beating a good rob, i'll believe you. character board matchups are as useless as stingers in mk dittos
