What color Game and Watch did you use? :s
There was like a Game and Watch on the livestream when it first started streaming yesterday. The tag was ''Yoshi'' so I assume it was YoshiFreak since he uses Game and Watch is and is from CA. Then after his long streak, another Game and Watch came and beat him. D:
Don't know any other Cyan using Game and Watches from West Coast.

Yeah idk, I find there's some charm to guys like Boss, NEO, Emblem Lord, and Pierce7d (to a lesser extent since he rarely acts black lol).

And Emblem Lord these days has been making me laugh a lot while we discuss various stuff about SSF4. Or when I read up some of his old posts on this forum and SRK lol.

So yeah as I was saying, black people are teh awesome. I'm asian anyhow.

I don't own a PS3 or Xbawks, so I dunno. Maybe my friend will let me try wifi with his PS3.

I'm terrible at SSF4 though, my friend however is like an amazing Ken main. I mean seriously, he doesn't spam fierce shoryuken lmao.

I main Ryu and alt Zangief, T.Hawk, Gouken, and Juri I guess.

Guys, learn to space the 3rd hit of N-air perfectly. Done correctly, it true combos into D-smash on EVERYONE.

Perfect N-air spacing is the future of G&W.

Here's a tip: buffering a fullhop B-air then a N-air immediately afterwards is one way to set up the perfect spacing.

You only need to land the 3rd hit, so if you can deliberately space so only that part of N-air connects on the opponent, they won't be escaping your combo in any humanly realistic way.

On lightweights 3rd hit N-air -> D-smash sets off the training mode combo counter, but the combo is still unblockable and unjumpable against all other heavier characters.

The catch is you need to hit with the outer edge of 3rd hit N-air, and if you want it to best combo into sweetspot D-smash, you have to be moving into them at the same time.

I got RocketPSI interested in researching G&W's N-air, so expect more details on the possibility of comboing N-air -> F-smash, frame data, tips and spacing tricks, and other stuff from him.

ah pretty interesting. I also know that the last hit of the N-air hitting an opponent on the ground can be comboed into a judgment, but the spacing is really messy, and N-air must be done really late before touching the ground.

It needs more investigation, I agree.

People say to spam d-smash and it works. XD; Not all the time of course. Just in certain situations. I always feel so bad. XD; But it actually does work. People don't know what to do, and try and approach and get hit. Lol.
I think Random smashes is just part of the way GW works. We're blessed with some amazing smashes as far as the speed:range/power ratio goes. We don't have to be afraid to just toss em out every so often (or even more than that) For most characters the person using the smash is at the disadvantage but for us (Not saying our smashes are unpunishable, obviously) the opponent usually is the one forced into an awkward position even if we're not completely safe about it, because Usmash is so good and deceptively big, Dsmash is so big, and Fsmash lingers

ignoring the fact that they're so strong too.

plus if you throw random Dsmash, some might actually try to punish you but will fail due to poor spacing. Raep time!

So, I'm in frame by frame right now, and it seems as if that if you n-air at the apex of Gdubs SH, you'll get the third hit.

FF a Nair is a really good setup into almost anything. Jab, Utilt (eww), Dsmash, you name it.

This is really good while edgeguarding a marth. You grab the ledge, he upBs back on stage, you hop off the ledge, wait til the apex of the jump, FF nair, then dsmash and send him offstage. They die around 50%.

This isn't FF though. This is legit third hit, true combo. No FF, I'll try to find the frame in which you can initiate in FF.
