I was using this against an Ice Climber and it was working. So I tested in training mode and if you jc to illusion fast enough the counter reads 2. Plus you're in a good position considering how far ice climbers go and the length of the illusion.

Could be applicable to other characters. Guaranteed combo's ftw. DI depending of course also.... but who DI's shine srsly lol consistently lol

I feel like the lag after the illusion would leave you open, and the knockback/damage isnt really worth it.

Sounds more like epic mindgames than a combo. hahaha.

Actually at the last tourney I attended, I did illusion -> usmash for the kill. **** was so good.

I've always wondered, why do people call it the "phantasm" when it is actually called the "phantom?"

Ok, the game itself calls it the phantom. It may have changed over time because people kept saying "phantasm." When people kept searching for this "phantasm" the forum members kept talking about, the alternate name may have been created.

You have no idea what you're talking about. Where does it call it phantom...anywhere? :laugh:

Ok, I'll admit it. You're right. I swore it was called that from a long time ago. Also, I had never heard the word "phantasm" before, so I assumed it to be a typo.

Haha, it's no problem, really. I was probably a bit harsh. :(

I was starting to question myself, too, actually. I thought it may have been called that in the SSBM Players Handbook or something, but then I thought "Who the **** reads those things?"

:p
