Patch 1.0.6 Notes

[Game And Guy]

Since there's no thread for this, and since I'd rather have one set place for discussion on this rather than the social thread, post anything you find about G&W in this thread.

All I can tell off hand is up tilt seems...nerfed.

Can anyone test if d-tilt have less endlag? I feel like it's quicker now

As someone who use D-throw > Up-tilt a lot, I don't see any changes in speed.

EDIT: I think Up-Tilt knockback has been increased, but I'm not sure.

Acorrding to reddit: "Utilt second hit sends the opponents up+diagonally behind of G&W instead of straight up." that's the only confirmed change in the list

I feel like his uair got buffed a bit, the second hit has been killing at lower percentages and more frequently.
I also feel like his dair gained more lag, and so did his fsmash.
Am I going crazy?

I can't string together u-tilts after downthrow anymore, so I feel like the new u-tilt is a nerf to him.

That's your problem. Instead of chaining U-Tilts, why not go for a backwards Nair? It does more damage than a second U-Tilt. Against Falcon, it's actually easier to string U-Tilt, you can string 3 in a row for 5 hits.

Just thought I'd mention, in the vanilla Smash 3DS, d-air could do directional spiking if a direction is being held when it's used. In every update prior, directional spikes have been removed, this involves things like the varying d-air by R.O.B.

In 1.0.6., they returned, but GW can no longer do one if a direction is held. It's always straight down.

Woah you're killing with utilt? What percentages are we talking about here? I don't think I have ever realized it was a kill move

U-Tilt isn't a good kill move AFAIK, last time I killed with it was 160%. Also, the post might be outdated anyways.

He didn't say U-tilt, he said, U-air. Read below. Also, sort-of-related fact, the first hit of U-air when canceled on the ground can combo into U-tilt.
