Possible New Move

[kigbariom]

I was playing a friendly and I was on the ground. I wanted to do a side b but I was pushing the control stick up. So Luigi did a super jump punch, but immediately after I did that I held in the opposite direction on the control stick. In mid-air Luigi turned around and landed facing the opposite direction.
To try this, just go to training and hold up, then press b and tilt backwards as fast as you can, Luigi will turn around.
I don't know if this is undiscovered but I've never heard anyone talk about it. It could serve some purpose, which I have yet to find. Try it out.

That is a Reverse Up-B....You can do alot of characters....Mario, Marth etc....

Luigi has no use for it at all

I see, Its strange I've never done that move before. I've been playing forever.

Scrubs is right. It's called a B-Reversal. You can do the same thing with a Fireball. The same way Captain Falcon can Reverse his Falcon Punch.

Mario's is different though... if you hold Backward on the Analog immediately after his Up B just like you're describing, he'll go straight up instead of at an angle.

Do a reversed Up B when you are coming from below FD and you'll turn around to sweetspot the edge (faster than trying to grab the edge while facing the other way).

yeah like el said any character can do this with any b move, well most of them anyway. its what makes DKs reverse giant punch possible
