New gameplay feature!

[The_Famous_SK]

OK so I noticed in today's update..

Notice where Samus' grapple beam is going to grapple. That's a platform ledge, not a stage ledge. It could be that this is a feature included ONLY in Pit's stage, because the whole **** thing is breakable. Or maybe it's a global thing.

So, does that mean we're going to be able to edge-hang from platforms? Or is that just their way of getting rid of edge-cancelling?

hmm plz dont call me a n00b but i dont get what u mean platform ledge/stage ledge

and the breakable part ... i dont get that either

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

You could do that in Melee too, with the characters that could grapple onto ledges

Pit stage is breakable literally breakable you can break it the platform is the thing pit is standing on.

I think the platforms in Pit's stage are grabbable, but the clouds below them aren't.

So, say in Battlefield or Pokemon Stadium, if you jumped up and shot a grapple beam at a platform (not the floor/bottom part of the stage), you'd hang from it? I call bullspit.

You should learn to read better.

Why the ****....you could do that in Melee...****it try it. The stage edge is not the only thing you can grapple onto...YOu can grapple onto platforms

You should learn to read better

Alright, i'm pretty sure you cannot grapple onto normal platforms in SSBM. Either they changed it for brawl, or this particular stage has platforms that you can hang from. Nice find.

How would this threaten edge cancelling, though? Unless i'm thinking of something else...

I think when he says "stage ledge" he is refering to the big, main platform of the stage. These platforms are usually not pass-though ledges. The "platform ledge" he's refering to the other platforms that are typically smaller and more often then not, pass-through. I hope that cleared a few things up for you.

Why is no one listening to him?

It's not even that rare either. Some Samus players do it really commonly on stages like Pokemon Stadium(grass stage) against the wooden platforms..

What the hell? The stage is the platforms. Just because somethings relatively thin doesn't mean it can't be hung from. Check the stuff on Great Bay.

First of all...

Spot on. Well done sir.

The wooden things in Pokemon Stadium I think you're referring to... on the left... you can "hang" from those. You cannot hang from the platforms in Battlefield, which I think these platforms resemble a lot more. These seem to be the general, run-of-the-mill platforms. Except, if you can grapple them, you can (PROBABLY) hang from them.

As for nerfing edge-cancelling... wouldn't you edge-cancel into an edge-grab instead of being open for another move, if you edge cancelled facing into the platform?

 

[raphtmarqui]

So ur saying that in melee u can grapple onto the three platforms on Battlefield too?

 

[Magnacor]

I think that you can grab onto the pass-through ledges where you can pass through bottom but not the top. The ones where you can go pass through the top and bottom are to thin to grab onto. If I remember correctly, the wooden platforms of the jungle part of Pokemon Stadium were only pass though, if you went through the bottom.
