You just press forward on hit. It's sorta like power shielding with the timing, but it's after the hit and the window to input is bigger. That little extra boost forward can help on grabs. C-stick works too.

I actually use it here and there.
Or, at least try to.

It's helped me out before though.

Okay then. Yeah, my definition of "doing anything" was a lot more broad; Speed and K.I.D. were included in my definition...

:green:
i talk about myself alot and I know how I am, but with all honesty I havent been to a tournament in close to 6 months. I am clearly not active. whatever happens at pound, you can name drop me after that, but as of right now, bringing me up in anything aside from 'KID said ______ on (insert smashboards thread)' is willingly taking a big hit to the viability of your opinion.
DDD's also say pika isnt that bad, I think its pretty god awful.
Ill just give a small example of my reasoning on this.

Having played this matchup a good number of times, I can say that honestly, pikachu can not feasibly attack ddd without entering ddds grab range. If he can make a good read and get in on ddd, he can juggle him for days, but ddd should be winning so many more of the neutral position encounters just by grabbing preemptively.

Jeez, it's not like Dedede, ZSS and Pikachu are below average characters. How hard is it to find occurences of decent mains playing each other?
cus everyones too busy playing MK or being the one skilled person in their region that doesnt. There was a point in time where my region was
Ike, Pikachu, ICs, DK, Sonic, and lucario
then there was another point in time where my region got really close to being
Mk, Mk, Mk, Mk, my falco, and mk.

Does anyone use shield sdi?

nope. gotta focus on the basics before you get to the niche stuff.

There was a point in time where my region was--

Pokémon Trainer, Falco, Luigi, King Dedede, and Diddy Kong.

Now, it's--

My Pokémon Trainer, Meta Knight, Meta Knight, Ice Climbers, and Meta Knight. :(

I'm gonna have to make the jump back to Wario. No way around it.

Wanna trade? :(
No way, our scene is far too amazing.

But we do still have a few MKs, Diddys, Snakes, ICs, etc., but almost everyone stuck with their original character from the beginning, so we have a good amount of diversity.

im glad, and i found it funny that you didnt put yourself on that list of good people in your region.
Well, there are a lot of people better than me here. Saying i could be top 10 is a bit of a stretch, and if I am, only barely.

My region is, Snake, Fox, Wario, Olimar, Pikachu, Toon Link, Diddy Kong, Dk, Kirby, Falco, and Lucario. We only have one or two good Mks. My region may not be the biggest region out there, but it sure has variety.

:snake:
:kirby2:
:metaknight:
:dedede:
:popo:

@Nick Riddle: Icies Vs. ZSS isn't that bad imo, I still think it might be on your favor though, what Ice climber players do you have in your region?

Coney has the best images.

Also a lot more Lucarios running around than I originally thought.
lol Yay. After seeing that thread by ripple, I was surprised by how many MKs there were. Out of about ~500, ~85 were MK. Then the rest of the characters were spread out sort of evenly. There will always be more of any character than you realize.

:wario:/:metaknight:/:lucario:
:falco:/:snake:
:gw:/:zerosuitsamus:/:fox:/:falco:
:sonic:/:yoshi2:/:jigglypuff:
:pit:/:luigi2:
A :metaknight:/:pt: from time to time
A :marth: even less frequent than the one above

A (very) small scene, but a diverse one nonetheless. If only OK's smash scene could get bigger.

I think ICs wins this match-up, or I did.

I was talking to NR about it last night and he gave me a few tips and I can see where he's coming from.

The big thing is, grabbing Nana is really easy because she doesn't spot dodge until X amount of frames after Popo, so ICs are pretty easy to grab and thus separate and juggle (ZSS IS really good at keeping them apart).

Only the top 5 are active though, and some less than others.
