lemme put it this way...
I never said doc and mario's b.airs were the same. I believe i said something along the lines that they serve the same purpose very similarly(?). If i could reiterate the point...for the situations where you most use the b.air, its moreso common that it won't matter.
When you're hanging on a ledge, and leg go *b.air* intercept their recovery (possibly using invinicibility frames), both mario and doc will succeed in a successful edgeguard. THIS is a common b.air edgeguard use.
I believe what you're talking about is a money-shot. Assuming you're oponent is recovering correctly...it should rarely happen. Yea...for those uncommon situations, doc's b.air is much better...but marth, especially, should be almost entirely immune to doc's b.air. If your cousin's doc is edgeguarding w/ that b.air, you should f.air and outrange him when he does that and mix up your recovery more. I play a very good marth often, and he has no problem swiping me away (unless i'm b.airing from an edgehog, in which case i'm invincible and its close enough so i can edgehog immediately again, whereas mario could do the same)
Peach should avoid nearly every b.air edgeguard because she should always recover above that.
Yeah, doc's b.air is better...but my point is, the situations (where it is Much better) are few and far between against a skilled oponent.
I'm sorry I worded things mean, but your agrue your points with really wierd logic. You said i ignored your points??....your "points" consisted of...
"my cousin", "level 1 bowser", "i tried it on the sandbag."
It just really looks bad, no offense.
For the record, many attacks' trajectory distances increase indepedently from one other, based on damage/weight/fallspeed.
One move that is stronger than another, MAY BE WEAKER at a higher damage instead. You said you did homerun contest, and thats basic homerun 101.
At 0% Ganon's homerun swing sends the sandbag further than his reverse warlockpunch. But at higher damages, his reverse warlock punch sends it further than his homerun bat.
At KO percentages, mario's f.smash is alot more devastating than doc's d.smash, additionally the point that during upair chains, oponents will be DIing away...plus oponents will usually be slightly more in the air for mario's f.smash, than doc's d.smash. Its not so easy as to explain it by means of 0% w/out DI. There are so many other factors to take into play. "testing" things out proves nothing, its what happens in the real match, as i've now explained into the nity-grity of both their b.airs and upair finishers i hope it makes more sense now. I'm sorry, i guess i should have gotten this hardcore into explaining my argument from the beginning.
I don't do "honor" MMs. They don't settle any rivalries. If i beat you, you would only be more sore towards me, and the chance i'd lose, i'm sure you'd proclaim to the world you beat me...so that i obviously suck and you're awesome. I would agree to MM under the terms of no hard feelings, but that not only seem unlikely..but impossible since we may never play.
I don't doubt your skill...in fact i have no idea how good you are, and i don't underestimate anyone, ever. I just think you're arguments are weak, since you're basing it off your cousin and computer tests. But hey...thats how Mew2King started off, so you might be better than me, who knows.
