Cool Pivot grab WHEW! Dthrow Pivot grab is cool. Or when people are returning with attacks.

 

[DominusHaven]

This is a very lucky Pivot grab that barely works, but When you use the D-tilt and get the spike off, then predict their roll into a pivot grab, it's cool but only work's if you know the sweet-spot.

I'd like to see some videos of those fights, if possible.

 

[kown]

they were all friendlies...i beat hylians mk on the live screen...so you might of seen that.

It's really easy to punish ppl as they're landing. Run to where they are going to land. If they attack, PS and counter. If they airdodge before they touch the ground, Pivot grab. If they start catching on, just jump and uair. Mixups son, mixups.

 

[Valuno]

Pivot grabs are pretty useful. I use them a lot to punish rolls actually. Since Pit's pivot grab has a little bit more range than D3's standing grab iirc, sometimes I've spaced a pivot grab against other character's aerials and grabbed them :D.

 

[kown]

i know ive done that to a pit who was gliding at me....

 

[yummynbeefy]

wow so now people wont be chasing after pit ITS A TRAP!!! well also something ill do is do a d-throw and start dash dancing then wait until they are abot to hit the ground when they do i run past and pivot grab

 

[kown]

i cant dash dance..my thumb is too slow..lol.

 

[rinoH]

dash dancing is easy especially with tap jump off

 

[kown]

my fingers are too slow!!! i would dash dance for ultimate mindgames...if i knew how!!

 

[CHOMPY]

Dash Dancing + Pivot Grab= Too Good for words to describe

 

[kown]

thats what i want to doo!!!!!!!!!! if i can only move my **** thumb..lol

 

[Rogue Pit]

Lol at kown. Also you can only pivot grab pits glair if he attacks to early and slides on the ground. Majority of the time you wont be able to. Also Dash dancing leads to tripping, which leads to fail.

yeah dash dancing is not applicable in brawl..too easy to trip, therefore to easy to punish

 

[rinoH]

so ive been playing around with his pivot grabbing and it does not have a very far range compared to jiggs and such and to me its prtty useless except for punishing rolls and predicting techs and stuff and as Rogue said above dont dash dance =) except when you kill someone and rub it in their face that you can dash dance

*sidenote kown you must fail at melee then if you cant dash dance man i would love to see you try to waveshine i bet you would accidentally do side-b or something lulz

 

[kown]

wave shine.... i didnt play melee....HALO2!!!! wasTHEgame.

 

[Valuno]

Dash dance into pivot grab is like 50-50 for me, that other 50% I do a dash grab instead which is pretty bad lol

WHAT?¿¡!?¿¡!?¿¡!?
Try stopping approachs.... That there is enough, pivot grab is my life dude.... And you just insulted it. You should be ashamed......

 

[kown]

how did u do upside down question marks...? and pivot grabbing is good...i really like dthrow to grab...super effective.

 

[Valuno]

Yeah, dthrow to grab is pretty good... if you dash(following their DI) and shield, you effectively shutdown 2/3 of their options, which are an aerial, or airdodge. The thing is they can jump... but if they do that an uair would've hit them anyways, so it's still legit. If you dash the wrong way because you followed their DI wrongly(lol) then you can just turn around and ftilt and still maybe hit them... >_>

It sort of feels like cging with marth or dk in melee just not actually a cg.... if that makes any sense lol.

just shield cancel out of your dash and get a see where they are gonna DI after seeing you move and them either dash grab or even mind game them more a slightly dash away from where they are goig to land a piviot grab back, but once they catch on yu'll need to throw in some PS because they'll attackon the way down and so PS and punish. also as they begin to catch on just throw in some jump uairs and you have momentum controlling strategy in itself.
