I was wondering how many of you guys are utilizing Perfect Pivots with Ike? I'm still working on pulling them off consistently, but when I do get them they work so well. Ike already does really well with the bait-and-punish style of play, and Perfect Pivoting feels like such a great tool to add to his arsenal.

Is there anyone out there that's using this consistently, and if so, how good is it?

It's very useful if you can do it consistently. PP Jab, PP Down tilt, PP up tilt. All VERY useful.

There's also approaching ftilt if you really want to be fancy.

I only find PP dtilt useful in situations where you're way too close to the opponent but don't want to jab.

Can someone make a video of Ike doing various types of PP. I can't even recognize if I'm doing them or not, nor do I really understand which sorts of situations to use it in.

Yeah, sometimes I have problems knowing if I've done it correctly, too (embarrassingly.)
