Repeated shots, every 10 frames

[painlord k11]

can you phantom hit a sweetspot knee

i dont think so considering that sweet spot means it actually hits................ idk im a noob anyways........ id like to know is mute city banned and someone just give my the new stage rules link my the thread or something k thx =D

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

yes you can. sweetspot knee has a hitbox. any hitbox can phantom hit (except grab ones...)

 

[cjugs]

My link is getting fairly good, but i am still being tech chased hard by CF not just that but lots of other character have little things they do. i want to study them and figure all of their options out but a cfalcon or fox guides aren't just laying on every board hints?

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

that wasn't a question btw

 

[Tamoo]

But there was a question mark

 

[EC_Joey]

The answer to the nonexistant question is watch vids. Nothing better than watching vids of pros.

 

[ranmaru]

Link has to camp. Errr... Like, link is slow... CF is FAST-- *KNEEEEEEEED* ow.

But yeah. Fox is fast too. So camp those *****s. Projectiles, Nair, Fair... : D And refrain from Dairing! I know Links love to Dair so I always shield and wait for it, link slides into my grab range hahaha.

 

[Fade2Nothing]

so do you guys think that melee will continue to run strong in the next few years? 2010 was surprisingly a pretty golden year imo pound4 biggest ever, cat5 coming up, rom3 coming up, apex is coming up
unfortunately i cant attend any of these T_T mostly because of my parents so i probably dont think i can until 2 years when i get into college
so will melee be this strong in 2 years? or even as a general question how long will melee last?

 

[EC_Joey]

It'll last as long as there are people who love playing the game.

 

[Fade2Nothing]

^ love that answer LOL
its too bad i cant find anyone to consistently play with
i think hax (Aziz al-Yami o_o?) goes to my school but we dont really know each other LOL
besides i dont wanna get ***** too hard itll destroy me inside =[
so does any1 wanna play with me? :D please dont be a pedo and **** me or something x_x

 

[EC_Joey]

Don't worry, Hax ***** everyone.

Just ask him if he knows any people around your level.

whats the best way or a way to muiltishine fast?

whats the best way or a way to muiltishine fast?

I've tried different methods, originally I would use the joystick only, and that worked fine with falco, but since foxes is a little quicker, I've had to use Y and B with my thumb, just slide from Y and B. I would speculate that this is what a lot of people do because if you watch, when they mess it up, they end up doing a drill, which is because you usually hit the C stick on your way down.

Any way, the best way to do it is the way you're comfortable with, you can try joystick only, or Y and B, or X and B if you button slide.

The main way to multishine proficiently is to practice.

 

[Incronaut]

its seriously practice and preference... people say Y to B is the best distance-wise.. but im pretty sure zhu uses x to b and i think mango doesnt use x at all lol

 

[Kanelol]

Y to B here. Stuck at double/triple shines, but it's improving. Just throw a few out in between stocks, waiting for an edgeguard, at the start or end of a game, or if you just feel like sandbagging. Give it time. Start with double shines, then triple, then once you have the timing down you can do as many as you want.

I have no ****ing clue how someone would multi shine with the control stick though, that sounds like.. ****ing ********

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

falco it doesn't really matter. fox it kinda matters.

Y+B is the best option out of efficiency and you have less of a chance to accidentally hit A

 

[ranmaru]

what should I be thinking when I want to wavedash consistently with Falco? I mean, he jumps pretty high. A few times I may have him jump instead of dashing.

I know I have to practice, and I will. I just need to know if there is anything little I need to know about the timing and stuff. If not I'll just keep practicing I guess. : D

And also sometimes I try fox and I wd fine on the stage but sometimes I might not get it, so edgeguarding with him is a bit tougher.

Generally if you're messing up wavedashes and JUMPING, it's because you're inputting the air dodge too soon.

Falcos jump is a little slow, I believe he's air borne on frame 6 instead of 4/5 for a lot of the other cast

In this case you just need to slow it down, even if your WD's look choppy and ****ty, once you get the slow timing, you can speed it up gradually, it's a lot easier to speed it up a little than to slow it down when you have no gauge of how much slower it needs to be

Hmm that maybe true. I always use the same timing for other characters haha. I usually get it but theres like a 1 out of 5 chance I'll not get the airdodge.

I thought it was more like falco jumping earlier than I could airdodge but since you say he does it later that may help.

Thanks. ;D

 

[Kanelol]

With Falco, you have to drop it like 1/10th of a notch to get everything right

you just need to get the flow down, then it'll be easy mode

 

[Rappster]

where'd that thread of epic matches go?

 

[Kanelol]

it's still here

it was on the front page at some point today, idk just look

 

[Rappster]

ok, i found it. thanks.

 

[Kanelol]

Does anyone know if Fox's D-throw over the ledge count as a meteor smash?

I swear I just saw m2k meteor cancel one

:<

 

[Lovage]

ya its a meteor

 

[Kanelol]

what a coincidence the time i saw him meteor cancel it was during your match against him at TP 5

good **** bro

 

[X1-12]

if you are shielding, does your whole shield become grabable, or just the area where your body also is?

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

just your body i believe

 

[cjugs]

Can you tech a platform when you are sent going straight up through it? say i am on Fod and fox usmash hits me (link) can i tech the platform?

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

No you must hit it with some downward movement.

 

[Kanelol]

Some characters can tech as they go through a platform. Or at least one. G&W. I dunno if there's anyone else.
