Olimars Tether recovery is better then I thought. (Video included)

[Zanmato145]

Yeah, this is a replay i've had saved for a while, but my friend finnaly recorded it for me. Recovering from Ganondorfs epic spike with olimars tether. I'm around 110% at the time too. Enjoy~

I have other brawl vids up too if your interested.

 

[TrueRedemption]

Huh...

won't comment on how you could've avoided that by not double jumping that early ( its a bad habit that i'm working on too 0,o ) nor will i go on about how the tether recovery really is that bad. I don't even have any real logical reason or understanding to explain it... I mean theres no denying even that the chain length is far less than how far down you were, even overestimating how much vertical movement UpB gives olimar himself.

Closest thing to an idea of how this happened is I imagine you were attempting to UpB right as you were spiked, to either hit him or grab the ledge? and that may have buffered due to the end of your air dodge, somehow coming off at some random single frame lacking hit stun despite the stun prior and what should be after that one frame you somehow caught. The chain animation didn't show due to some glitch or something, but once the chain time wise would've grabbed the ledge it put you there.


really... Just huh...


-True

Yeah, if you activate tethers while flying out of range and they sweetspot the ledge, you can grab onto the ledge even if it looks impossible. I've done that a few times with Olimar and ZSS.

Airdodging and tethering the normal way is recommended, though, as it's far safer. ^_^

 

[Zanmato145]

Yes that double jumping habit is a real pain to break, i'm working on it though

 

[Evelgest]

You jumped right into him. You could have faired him there. But it's an interesting video nonetheless.

 

[Zanmato145]

Yeah, I coulda Fair'd him. I shoulda Fair'd him. But I didn't. I kinda made this topic about the tether recovery, not to play the shoulda coulda but didn't game.

i would have bdown super armor frames ftw

 

[cHiCkEN_TeNdErS]

haha I gotta say it, what was the point of having all those old school games as an intro?

I mean like 5-10 seconds worth sure but not 24

also was that recovery done with 6 pikmin or 5?
it seemed to have a really long range

 

[keeper]

I love meteor canceling with Olimar's Pikmin Chain. Good stuff.

Watch this video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=OknHBztBl0A (3:40 to the end).

Olimar's tether has awesome range.

 

[Fredd]

You must have tethered just in time or you would have been a goner.

P.S: The first 35 seconds, or so, introduction was a total, and complete, waste of my time.
**** you.
Just kidding.​

 

[Zanmato145]

That intro is a good way of stealing 26 seconds of someones life.

 

[DanGR]

yah, same thing happens on fd. u can't see yourself but youre able to tether. it rocks.(range wise)

 

[Kashakunaki]

Guys, what he could've done is not the question, nor is how that happened, but simply HOW BADASS that was, lol. I'd be bawling if that'd happened.

 

[Pinoy]

nice intro...NOT
lol
Anyways, interesting video.
and yes kashakunaki, that was very Badass.
If i did it and came back on the ledge id be sitting their drooling at my past actions (which is prolly why he was immediately KO'd XD)
