precise uairs

[Siglemic]

so i feel like i miss like 50% of my uthrow uairs because my opponent DIs them and i don't have enough momentum going to the side or whatever

i use up + a for uthrow uairing because it's a lot easier for me, though i feel it's kinda limited.

i use the c stick for pretty much everything else

is it worth learning uthrow uair with the c stick ? should i claw it if i don't trust that i can get my thumb down to the c stick fast enough ? it seems like really strict timing

thanks!

What I do is use the control stick to run, then use the control stick to jump as well, using the C-stick to do the upair with. You don't have to ever change the control stick direction to put in the upair like you would have to do with A so you can put your full attention on chasing their DI, and I think pressing the buttons to jump takes too long, and if you use the C-stick, you have to rush etc.

TLDR, use up for jump and direction, c-stick to upair.

Edit: i actually don't know if that made any sense at all.

I'm still trying to figure it out, guh

For single jump uairs, I use the control stick to dash and jump, and then cstick to uair. For double jumps, I dash with the analog, jump once with x, and then dbl jump uair with up+z. 'm fast enough with this to consistently uair jiggs up to 100% on any DI.

Using the c-stick will help you meet some of the faster uthrow uair requirements (i.g.: Jiggs). No, it is not necessary to perform every uair with the c-stick, but practicing it and knowing how to use it wouldn't hurt.

^I'm starting to think that that is what I'm gonna have to learn to do; I can't hit Jigglypuff out of a grab at all. X.X

i use up to jump and c-stick for all my aerials

i think in your case it would be worth it to learn to uair with c-stick

when you start playing really good people they get really good at DI'ing uthrow uair so you gotta be very accurate and fast to connect at high percents.

Control stick jumps are so underrated.
