Platform tactics

[XKCP]

I have a question that I think I have seen somewhat answered elsewhere on the boards, but cannot find it. Does 64 have isai dropping, shai dropping, and all that good stuff like Melee does? What would be missing?

On a side note, I really like to do ledge-cancelled shielding on platforms to something like uair. It's so rewarding.

i had to google both of those terms

i am pretty sure there is no isai dropping BUT shai dropping is just shield dropping through a platform while dashing, which is present in 64. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYjwptqwJt4&feature=player_detailpage#t=36s

i think that's what you mean, anyway.

I guess we'd need TAS to see if there is Isai Dropping? I just rewatched the video tutorial for it and I'm still confused so idk.

and "#t=36s", does # not work only for me?

You want an ampersand, not a hashtag.

so &t=36s

Yeah, I've done shai dropping myself, just like the video presents it. I doubt that much else besides that exists in 64. I actually find that shai drops help me do uairs more consistently off a platform than any other way.

Yeah, I think we don't need TAS to know there's no Isai dropping. But I did it anyway, there's no Isai dropping.

 

[prisonchild]

for those too lazy, what is isai dropping?

 

[Sangoku]

Start walking, then hold down to go through the platform faster than while standing.

Isai dropping is irrelevant as aerials don't have any landing lag at all in this game, you can drop trough at any moment without having to move. Shai dropping is possible as people have answered, but it's alot easier than it is in Melee. A cool thing you can do in 64 is pivot shai drop! Pretty cool with falcon bairs.
