Official Snake Q&A Area

Seven frames.

 

[PEACE7]

What move can snake do to hit Ganon right after Ganon upB's him?

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

Nothing. He doesn't have anything fast enough. Although, I recall SuSa making a suggestion of taking the hit, tech jump off a wall under the stage, and Fair spike ganon lol

 

[PEACE7]

Oh alright cool good to know

 

[Ralph Cecil]

Who would be a good secondary without MK in the picture? I mean in the sense of covering poor MUs, & what not.

 

[Kuro~]

Diddy. Lol.

In all seriousness...

You have to cover what?

Pika, marth, d3.

That's just about it.

So let's see...

IC, Diddy, falco, olimar if you don't mind marth much, lucario can do well vs them all at high level, toonlink, shielda, zss..

 

[False]

I don't mind Marth so it's all good. I just hate d3 so much.

ALSO HOW THE FK DO I FIGHT PIT OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGOMGOMGOGMOGM ARROWS ERRWHERE. I was getting so pissed today.

also: False has a beast Samus.

Hahaha refer bk to all the previous posts on this subject @.@

 

[MVD]

Every snake.should.pick up ICs

 

[Kuro~]

I'm bad at chaingrabbing. I can land grabs so easy so that makes me rage. I can still desync fine =/

NTY!

 

[Reyney]

IC's cover snakes bad matchups best imo.

 

[F A N G]

How can I learn to be patient?

It's not a joke, I have trouble with it lol

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

Try patience endurance training lol
Yea, you have to train yourself on that one.

 

[Attila_]

I used to know, but I forgot.

Someone re-enlighten me.

 

[-Ran]

Step 1) Go on a fishing trip.
Step 2) Catch nothing.
Step 3) Goto Step 1 unless you have wasted several weekends of your life.

I play my best Smash after I go fishing.

 

[Reyney]

put something in your tag that remembers you to be patient during the match

 

[Kuro~]

^^^ this works. I did it when i use to struggle with a mu that i had to be patient in but got all aggro-ey. Eventually it becomes second nature.

I had a little sister for the longest time...so brawl can't even begin to test my patience. I'll pitch them tents up all day and not gaf.

 

[Ralph Cecil]

One of my friends used to play Falco against me. >_> Those lasers got me patient when I got the % lead.

EDIT:Also just a random thought, but can you z grab items while in cypher?

 

[Kuro~]

I don't believe so.

 

[F A N G]

Thanks guys, I figured there was no real answer, but the Tag idea is neat. I'll work on it.

@Ran lulz

Pressing Z would just make you AD wouldn't it?

 

[Ralph Cecil]

Idk lol I was just wondering, because i'm bored lol.

EDIT:Yeah I just tried it, & the closest thing I could do was catching it with the airdodge z made me do lol.

 

[Mike2]

@Ran lulz

I mean, I'm not the most patient player at all(I haven't worked on it), but if I made a conscious effort to get better with it, I would do it like I've done with everything: constantly work on it till you have it down. Literally every time you play, think about it and work on it. Make a tag that reminds you to.
If you're getting frustrated then remind yourself to stay positive whenever you notice it happening.

 

[Ralph Cecil]

>_> I never thought of it until now, but I have seen some really good players do tags to keep themselves calm. o-o

 

[-Ran]

Sometimes I put the tag 180% to reflect the mentality shift that I experience when I'm at high percentages.

 

[Mike2]

Best stages to ban against ZSS and Marth? and then what is their likely couterpick after that?

 

[Attila_]

Zss:

Counter - Fd, halberd, lylat
Ban - Brinstar, delphino, bf

Marth:

Counter - Fd, frigate, lylat, halberd
Ban - Brinstar, bf, rainbow, delphino

Sensing a pattern?

 

[MVD]

ICs do cover all of snakes bad MUs which is why I'm using them,

 

[Attila_]

They don't cover the Brinstar matchup...

 

[MVD]

Snake is good on brinstar and if your worried about it ban it and learn RC

 

[Attila_]

Rc is fine, Brinstar is trash.

I hate auto bans. Still gives the opponent a good stage against you.

Like delphino. or frigate.

 

[Ralph Cecil]

I personally love Brinstar, but that may be just me.

 

[Mister Eric]

^
it i s

 

[Ralph Cecil]

T_T You make me feel so lonely!

 

[Kuro~]

Delphino and frigate can actually be pretty beneficial for snake compared to Brins/rc...

 

[MVD]

I like all stages really just practice on them and learn the dumb **** so it favors you

 

[Attila_]

brinstar sets you up to be juggled hard. the arrangement of the platforms is such that it allows people to edgeguard well both above and along the diagonal; both areas where snake is forced to recover.

we also do not benefit from the extended hitboxes as much as other characters, cannot shark, and are forced to jump to transverse the stage.

delphino is mostly bad for the same reasons.

frigate can be good, but can be terrible also; it's a bit risky. wario/gw/mk/pit have a field day with us there.

 

[Kuro~]

I approve this message.

 

[MVD]

No no I have won on all these dumb stages, brinstar is actually amazing for snake as is frigate, delfino I'm getting used to

 

[Kuro~]

lol same here. I'm still trying to understand it w/snake who can't plank like pit =/

 

[MVD]

I understand it I'm just figuring out the possibilities on every transformation and I like it so far, I hate yoshis tho and bf a little too
