ROB Q&A!! Read this before asking questions...ALL OF IT!

[Sudai]

You know how if you're in your Up-B and you run into a wall, you will bounce off that wall with equal but opposite momentum? Basically, people are running into a tiny "wall" on the bottom of a level where there shouldn't be one (logically or visibly). This is most likely caused due to design error.

If you still don't get it, go into training on Yoshi's Island and Up-B at the wall of the stage bellow an edge. That's what's happening but on the flat underbelly of a stage where there's no reason for it to happen.

 

[ccst]

Oh, I understand now, thanks!

 

[Croissant]

That's the most frustrating thing... it's completely fail when you're trying to stall and that happens XP... either you'll just get ledge hogged because it takes so much time or they'll have enough time to just go under and hit you for a stage spike... it's the worst >=[

On another note, is Norfair considered any good for us? I've been taken there before and done pretty well just sharking lasers through the platforms and recovering in really weird ways. But it's really strange to move around there...

 

[BoTastic!]

I think norfair is very great for rob. You can **** ddd there, lol. Too bad its banned up here.

 

[CT Chia]

Oh man Norfair is such a fun stage I love it.

And yea, it's my #1 DDD cp when legal. Still deciding on a second, Vex recommends Brinstar.

 

[Croissant]

How's D3 on RC? Seems like it'd be really awkward for him to keep up... then again he does have multiple jumps..

 

[Silhouette]

There is also a wall at the first part for him to CG us against.

Norfair really banks on whether there is a ledge grab limit or not, if theres none we grape, but if there is this stage becomes annoying.

I'm not a fan of janky stages.

As a DDD secondary, I can tell you that I love RC. It's a great stage for him, because there's plenty of walls/walkoffs for CG's, and the low ceilings throughout the stage help his Utilt kill earlier. He doesn't have trouble keeping up either. I can pretty much guarantee ROB would get wrecked by DDD on RC. It's still better for us than Delfino though.

 

[Sudai]

If you're gonna CP DDD to Norfair, just go MK and make it official.

 

[Croissant]

Sudai, you live in LA? We should meet up over summer and play sometime! =]

 

[Sudai]

lmao

Louisiana

**** n00bs. Los Angles is L.A., not LA.

I'm moving to Colorado this summer anyway.

 

[Croissant]

loll k my bad... in my defense I had just woken up.. XP

 

[Revolutionary1804]

can ROB grad release combo into anything other then a situational fully charged or puny laser?

 

[Silhouette]

On Wario?

 

[Revolutionary1804]

On anyone.

 

[Sudai]

DTilt on Ness/Lucas ground release. USmash on Wario air release but Wario has to input a jump to be air released by us.

 

[Black Mantis]

When trying to get back on stage, is good to use nair, fair, or bair?

 

[Sudai]

All of them depending on the enemy char, the person behind the char, the stage you're on, and where you're coming from specifically. Just try them all out in diff situations and you'll get a handle for it fast.

 

[Tin Man]

Other options are Uair from below, and then of course roll, ledge attack, getup do nothing, and jump. Even try laser and gyro, but return to the edge

 

[Sudai]

Even ROB's side B is useful for getting back. Helicopter jump ftw? Really only DAir is bad for coming back. lol

 

[Tin Man]

u mean when u jump and side B at the same time? That's only useful in Brawl+ haha

 

[Sudai]

Nah, I've seen it used as a semi-decent mix-up for coming up from the ledge.

 

[Tin Man]

is that so, I'll have to try it sometime.

 

[Black Mantis]

Thanks for the useful info.

 

[ccst]

What is "Tap Jump"?

 

[GwJ]

Pressing up on the analog stick to jump

 

[ccst]

But there is an option for that in Brawl, why do people sometimes put it on?

 

[Sudai]

It's preference. I have it on for some characters and off for others.

With tap jump on it's easier to Up-B and USmash out of shield. With tap jump off it's easier to UTilt and UAir plus you can up-b without using any mid-air jumps.

Can somebody explain how you do this please?

 

[buenob]

just hit dodge (or rob can also use his downB I believe) as you are hitting floor level on a _MOVING_ platform and it will automatically snap you to it...

 

[Sudai]

Any action snaps you to the platform, including simply pressing down.

Yeah but do you jump all the time or what happens? xP
I mean, what exactly is it?

 

[Sudai]

It's the ability to jump with the joystick. With tap jump on, you can. With tap jump off, you can only jump with a jump button.

 

[ccst]

Okay, but the "joystick", is it the C-stick? And you can jump with "Up" on the analog stick + X and Y buttons. Sorry, but I'm stupid. =P

 

[Sudai]

Tap jump allows jumping with the left stick, not the c-stick. Prolly should have clarified which joystick.

 

[Silhouette]

Yeah tap jump on is 'Default' controls, but turning it off is pretty typical.

 

[Sudai]

It's the opposite here in Louisiana and Texas. Tap jump on is more popular.

 

[GwJ]

This shouldn't be this difficult to explain. You guys need to defrag yourselves.

Now I understand, thanks! =)

 

[stingers]
