It feels that I get d-aired a lot of the times when i try to do that.... i needa check fresh on d-throw within that range. Gonna see if i can do that every time against TL.

Assuming you were talking to me:

Pika's uair and nair both come out on the same frame, but uair has more vertical reach. If you're getting hit before you can uair but can consistently nair, you're just not uairing soon enough.

Oh yea... sry for the confusion... Of course i kno u-air is faster, i was maining thinking aloud (but typing... lol) about landing Nair in the first place. Unless, i am getting the freshness/diminishing wrong I feel like TL could d-air me even on the first time (of u-air or n-air). Anyways, never really crossed my mind to try it within that damage cuz i normally jolt him far and beyond the point it would have worked.

Ima gonna try that n-air between that range... that's what's sorta new to me, need to see if the d-throw>n-air is a true combo tonight.

Uair may take 1 or 2 more frames to hit than Nair because Uair's initial hit box comes out from behind Pika and dthrow sets the opponent up kinda in front of him.

Couldn't you buffer a turnaround and do a reverse uair? I dunno how big of a difference that'd make since turning around takes 1(?) frame anyway, but it might help.

Either way, I'm pretty sure uair would work just as well -- TL's dair comes out on frame 12, so it's not really fast enough to be worried about as far as getting your combo interrupted.

The choice of using uair over nair is a personal/situational one anyways. I was just throwing it out there that uair is another viable option and the one that I usually prefer.

Buffering a turn around + an attack takes 0 frames for the turnaround, but you can't buffer a turnaround + a jump. :(

Really? That's dumb. Nevermind on that part, then, but the rest of what I said still applies, methinks.

The nair should always work unless they pop out of the D-throw, similar to how you know when the fox/falco chaingrabs end.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think dthrow to anything works on tlink. He's too floaty

I like to d throw floaty characters to bait an airdodge, follow them and either pivot grab them or w/e I feel like :)

I do this with peach but usually d throw -> baited airdodge -> peach bomber if I can't combo them

Yea... that's precisely what i thought... but gallax said specifically that during 10%-20% d-throw to n-air works (alse he's said he had TL experience so I am currently giving him benefit of the doubt). I am right now (tho very confused that i haven't noticed it yet fighting against my lil' brother TL main) trying to confirm whether it works against my brother *I do wish he'd finish his college papers already... waiting patiently*. From my experiences tho, whatever I do from d-throw always gets a TL d-air to the face if I attempt any aerial (that's why i resort to u-air or just spotdodge most of the time.

You could actually test-test it K-prime. but I'll find out sooner or later when i meet up with Andy. I am currently producing a new video in which my brother is performing a new toon link AT. almost instant kill against wolf's, falcos, foxes, links and olimars. Dsmash in which a stray bomb guarentees and increases the gimping power of the tipped d-smash but it can be used at any damage range.

Hey Prime can you put these last videos up. It is Miquel who is realy a great pikachu.. one of the best.
Dont worry he is the last great pikachu from europe so i wont bother u again! (Me, Moko and Miquel are the top 3 according to most smash e.u). He is a very aggressive pikachu player with loads of skill... he doesnt play like me..... more towards esams playstyle .

Inside joke below
because of the spanish/ american language difference esam couldent sit down with miquel to discuss whether him or miquel is the second best pika after anther lol)

****************************************
Trials and Tribiluations of Someone Legendary... lol
****************************************

Okay! After coming back from my hiatus during summer vacation, I am BACK!

Here are some of the money matches/Tournament matches that i've had recently. I've been practicing more QaC stuff and thunder stuff in preparation for whenever I play Stealth or ESAM in RL. I'm still predominantly a 'jolter-pikachu', but hey... that's just my current preference ^_^. Some are wins and the others are epicly close losses (against the same people):

vs. ROB http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOSQJDKn1jc R1 (winners bracket) *Thunders dedicated to stealth; QaC mindgames dedicated to ESAM and Anther*

vs. ROB http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JW6_5j8meFc R2 (winners bracket) *QaC dedicated to ESAM and Anther*

vs. Olimar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p45PqAE_nno (winners bracket) *dedicated to anyone who likes YI ^_^*

vs. Olimar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leAsUIPIwuQ (winners bracket; funny storybehind this match if anyone wants to hear it (PM me ^_^)

vs. Toon Link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAyXJ1DuNRs (loser's bracket) *dedicated to anyone who likes t-jolts ^_^*

vs. Toon Link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SyXzoIFiMg (loser's bracket) *same as above*

vs. Wolf http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18_KsBmdH2k (loser's bracket; honorable friend of mine > no chaingrabs) *dedicated to wolf mains... lol ^_^*

vs. Wolf http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggI_I8fqFGc (loser's bracket; honorable friend of mine > limited chaingrabs) *dedicated to wolf mains... lol*

Hope the vids are good enough quality (I uploaded them myself :D). I'll keep you guys updated with anything else that happens. Thanks guys! ^_^

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meKGSy0E5f8 *just uploaded may not be done processing on youtube yet... but its VERY WORTHWHILE*
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dczlaNoVxTg This is what happens to my sanity when playing/training (mentoring) with my crewmate's samus for 4+ hours straight.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Svlk9gl-gPU -another video against samus

Samus vids are dedicated to stealth or ESAM who (i think) seconds samus at one point ^_^.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOaDrx7N8pM - comeback
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkHQ5xSBD0I - serious fight... until we started screwin around... lol.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKUEycQgxrU - Proof that we think alike... lol.

**** Part of the OWNAGE vids*****
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XwsFgKgW4Q - My brother's.....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_3LPXZ2Rmo - intense... when mindgames collide
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNihpjRAmgg - Important footage... knowing boomerang is key... lol
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYehrDvzx54 - Why he's just my little brother ^_^

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHanmmKJp28 - The most coveted feat in all of Brawl ^_^ (witness the pinnacle of my reading skills)

Hope you guys like.... These TL vids are all dedicated to you, Kaylo. ^_^

My first game against boss in friendly (i'll get him next time... i think i did okay for a first time ^_^:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LeKlAoQnN8 - 1 stock for 1 stock for most of the time... not too shabby for my first Boss encounter... lol ^_^
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ir6skAG8DjA - *watches Boss plank-taunt me off the edge* LDPK: "Don't screw with me! >:O Take me seriously!".... lol. ^_^

Please...don't lose to a samus...

FOr starters, DON'T fight on the ledge against samus. Shoot T-jolts and make her go back on the level...the ledge isn't a good place to fight against a samus. Also, SDI her Screw attack and stop blatantly attacking her shield from above her...Cmon man. SPace on the ground with D-tilt and approach with T-jolts. You will be able to duck under Super missiles and you can get close to a samus really really quick. Also, in the match missile and zair patterns were pretty easy to read (maybe just for a retired samus player) but you have to read them too.

All the other matches...good ****

Lol.... yea i know... but you don't understand... i played like a 1000 pika vs. samus matches that day alone O_O... i can only do the same thing so many times before i'd get sick and tired of it--after like the 1001th match, i almost like started "seeing things" that weren't there... tis a scary thing (WAY TOO MUCH BRAWL O_O). Twas my crewmate to so i could gamble and stuff and both of us could maybe learn somethin new or something. ^_^. I needed to post about equally decent footage of both me and my crews matches online... so i just picked the best of both ^_^. Plus, i know you are a (retired samus player ^_^) and apologize if you felt wronged by some of my losing footage, but it happens... even to me -_-. ^_^

Well since you won on most of them, I couldn't really say much. Try posting those on volt tackle vids ^_^. The one game and watch loss was just unfortunate. If he's got the bucket, most of the time the only advice i could give is to bait it out and block/avoid it. I f-smash and d-smash a lot less against a full bucket G&W.

Overall, you did great and have improved since the last time i saw your videos. Good job and keep up the good work. Personally, I like seeing MK's and marth getting beat up by pikachu. ^_^

I have some really great matches with a good snake, but It'll be a while before I can upload them.
EDIT: alright I got them, I don't win quite as much but there still pretty good matches.

Minor thing, but it's "Arikie," not "Arkie," lol. (In the title.)

Thanks for the update, tho. =D
