On Yoshi's, Fox can jump to the platforms. And Uthrow > Uair > Uair > Uair kills on YS. Spacies get waaaaaay too many advantages there. Even little things like easy it is for fox to tech on the base of the stage, or the **** cloud that comes at just the right moment to save fox.

Wait what? You can dropzone aerials on Yoshi's Story and not die.

Also, earla, pivot edge grab would be when you run at the edge until it stops because of the "whoa I'm going to fall off" animation, and then instantly turning while you still have your forward momentum. It is not easy to do.

Reverse needle edge grab would be running off, turnaround needle charging, then grabbing the ledge before you fall too far. Also, not easy to do.

I doubt videos would help, but you can look them up if you want. It just looks like Sheik runs off and grabs the edge.

^ drop zone Nairs and Bairs are kind of important.

Nes Noob - LOL, those thread titles annoy me. That's why i don't post on the Falcon boards anymore. Not that i contributed anything useful, but that's just how garbage those titles are.

edit - watch this match.

Well...obviously against anyone. Marth is just incredibly stupid when you're above him.

Tap down on the C-stick for great justice.

Much like playing Meta Knight.

But we shall not speak of that game here.

What name aren't we supposed to say? Brawl? Is it Brawl we're not supposed to mention? I hope it's not Brawl because Brawl is a fun word and it's fun to type "Brawl", especially when I mention that it's technically one of our descendants and therefore "Super Smash Bros Brawl".

just don't fall for empty SH => grab
ya I know. Trust me I learned that not to abuse but can use pretty often. Sometimes I n air put of sheild for mix up or my favorite sit in my sheild and grab.

Sheik falcon is so easy for sheik. Like all of her mover just out beat falcon or contest him. Retreating f airs nicely spaced for tilts retreating b airs and grab to d throw. And when the tech onto platfroms from d throw wavelanding onto and grabing them is so good. I simply love the match up.

What do you mean "the layout"? Just the button inputs? It's really not that difficult. At least not if you can reverse needle alone...

Tap the opposite direction you're facing - Press and hold B - Press L/R and release B (if you end up throwing the needle, then delay this input) - press the direction you can now Bair in on the cstick (or direction and A of course).

Maybe wanna start with doing fullhops to reverse needle Bair, and then when you get the muscle memory down start trying to do it with shorthops to learn to get it out faster or something...

If i was normally asked how to do it i certainly wouldn't have explained it this way either, but by the way he asked it sounded like he already knew technically how to do it :dizzy:
