Shorthop side b

[BrlRl]

Well, I've lurked for awhile now, and I didn't see this posted so I decided to just shoot it out there.

I was screwing around with Ganondorf in Training mode and found that his normal sideb does around 8% dmg, but when I short hop'd and quickly did a sideb afterwards it did around 12% dmg. You have to be quick, otherwise he jumps too high, though.

Nothin profound, but everyone likes more %dmg, right?

this is good against some taller characters you cant jab afterwards, but against most you are better off doing the grounded ver. because the jab sends them the direction u want them to go (off the stage) and does more damage.

on another note they are dropped so fast from a short hopped Forward B that they usually react at the pace of the grounded one, if ur quick u can sneak a thunder stomp onto thier belly!

Um... this can work on any character. I just tested it, and it can grab smaller people [Kirby, Lucas, etc.] no problem...

 

[Ganny]

sounds like an idea, I'll keep this in mind

What does the Jab have to do with where you do the side-B from?

Aren't they grounded from either one?

 

[BrlRl]

Yeah, what he said confused me, too. lol. And yes, both air and ground side-b ground them.

Actually, unless I'm mistaken, I don't think you can jab them if you down them with the aerial version. Am I mistaken?

 

[BrlRl]

Er... I'm fairly sure you can. 1 second while I go and see...

EDIT// Crud. My brother left, took his computer, as well as the powerstrip it was connected to, which means my wii and the TV are out of power, too. ~_~

not really, your landing lag effs you up. plus, they usually hit you with a get up attack;
