Reverse Grab!?!?!?

[LessThanThree]

So i was messing aroung the other day, and i'm not sure if this had been discovered, but you can dash grab with MK and turn around at the same time, effectively grabbing an opponent from behind. I can't really think of any applications for this, i was mainly tryingto see if i could fall off a ledge with this but i was unable to, maybe some1 else could though. I was just hinking it could be useful when opponents are in horizontal kill range, so you could grab from whichever side is most beneficial. Also, it would be a nice skill to develop so your opponent never knows which direction they are gonna be grabbed. In case you are wondering, works with all characters, at least all i tried, but MK was the only one that was even useful, as all other dashgrabs are too slow IMO. So, let's see what we can develop out of this little find.

I think this is called a pivot grab. Yes, all characters are able to perform it.

Don't. Just because someone else beat you to the punch on the forums doesn't mean you should feel stupid for discovering something for yourself.

dash pivoting is an awesome tech. there are alot of things you can do with it, check out the advance tech forum

You can also cancel a dash attack into a grab.. (or pivot grab.. works for either direction)
For some characters this gives a little bit of extra momentum
