SHDBA(Short Hop Double Back Air) Too Good

[Lovage 805]

As anyone who's played Dedede a lot knows, Back air is ridiculous, excellent for killing, comboing and spacing. But did you know you can fit two back airs in one short hop? **** right you can, and it is TOO GOOD . Dedede wall of paining just got ten times better, you can poke someone's shield with his best attack twice, and still land outside of their grab range. TOO GOOD .

The downside: It's hard. No, it isn't easy to do, compare it to mabye short hop double lasers with Fox in SSBM. I jump with control stick (shock, I know) so those things have never been hard, but I expect this to be pretty tough for someone jumping with X/Y. But anyway, it's good, it's very good, and competitive Dedede players will get to know this move pattern very well, and so will your opponents.

Can you c-stick aerials in brawl?

If so I shouldn't have any problems heheh

It's not hard, and I really didn't think it was comparable to Melee Fox's SHDL.

I really like how he can sneak a second b-air in with a Short Hop, but when you do he lands with lag. So there's still a minor draw back to using it.

It came in handy once when I missed with my 1st one and I knew my opponent was going to take the opportunity to move in for an attack without realizing I could do another b-air.

Edit:
Yes, you can still use the C-stick to perform aerials in Brawl.

My comparison to SHDL was an exaggeration, I know, I'd say there's mabye a 10 frame margin of error. Yep, this trick is pure awesome

Finally somebody else who jumps with the control stick! YAY! However, SHDBA is definently brutal. And to think I though DDD would be mid-tier a month ago.

After more practice with this, it's still very very good, but when you opponent begins to expect it, I try to mix it up with SH Bair -> land outside grab range and Ftilt

2 times better.

How would you say the timing compares with, say, Melee Marth double-fair?

 

[Lovage 805]

Slightly harder, but comparable.
