Possible MetaKnight Counter!

[Irae]

Before I state anything else, this needs more testing.

Last night in some friendly matches with my roommate, we played a DDD vs MK matchup.

I had 200 damage, and I was up one stock, so I was attempting a DDD-cide.


He used his Side-B, drill attack thing and came at me as I was perched on the ledge, sucking.

He hit me yes, but in a move reminiscent of Ike's Quick Draw glitch, he flew off the side, and couldn't recover. His normal "rebound" didn't function either.

Stunned, I tried it again vs his tornado, and it worked there, too.


So...

I think we may have a viable counter to the whorenado as long as we edgecamp. But that's only IF this is confirmed.

Anyone care to test it? I won't be able to until tonight.

why would a smart metaknight do a drill rush towards the edge of the level... or even a tornado... what if he messed up for some reason... Fall Special OH NOOOOOOO... then metaknight fails


good idea but it wont work in the way you are stating

The drill rush one isn't useful, but the tornado is spammed so much, it could conceivably be useful.

At the very least, it would give metaknight pause when rushing ddd.

But think about it pro MK dont use the Tornado towards the edge cause of the fear of death...o.o
But still I believe its a great find tho...

I've confirmed this to work flawlessly. I just need to get it filmed. Look for a video soon, either tonight or tomorrow afternoon. Depends on how fast I can finish this essay. This technique is actually very useful, as it causes the MK player to hesitate before using tornado near the edge.

At the very least, it's good for mindgames. My roommate relentlessly approached with tornado on my DDD, but now, he's a bit more cautious.

old.

they need to be in the later few frames of the whorenado when they get near you, and your suck will kill the **** out of them :D

LOL. but tornado spam is gay.

 

[CO18]

it works if they dont expect it, the drill rush pulling is more effective but a mk would never really do that.

The tornado doesnt work though unless they barely press B and use the nado for like 2 seconds otherwise theyll just return safely to the stage

Hey, DSF recovers with OverB.

This might work on some more stages than others. I can see this being really useful Do you think this might work for Kirby?

Yes. It uses the same physics as the Ike quick draw glitch, so I'd say any sort of inhalation would do it.
