Shutter Step?

[Da N]

Ive heard of the stutter step around the forums but i dont have a clue as to what it is, how to do it, or what its useful for.

Some help please.

i know the thread name is not shutter step so you were mis lead by that but the thread called ike's forward smash by comboking is about shutter stepping. We have a short brief explanation why shutter stepping is unnecessary to Ike.

Yes i read that and that is where i first hear of it, but you guys say nothing of what it is or how to do it. That is my question.

The Stutter step I belive was first found with Sonic... it's a way to increase the range distance of your f-smash (I think, unless I'm thinking of something different...)
anyways...to me I think it is pretty useless to Ike considering his smash is so slow, even if you predict their movements they can still probably get their sheild out in time...

 

[Da N]

yeah but even if they throw on their shield it takes off at least half their shield and it could hit them if their shield is already small

true, and truth be told i have broken shields before cause fsmash ---> to massive pressure to break their shield, but not blindly. truey great when you land a fully charged forward smash on someone. I never had so much more fun with ike.

Use captain falcon and go to FD and roll to the edge.
Use fsmash and look where his feet are.
Now roll back to the edge, this time tap forward to run, tap back IMMEDIATELY to run the other way, then smash the C stick in the original run direction to do a Fsmash.

Look at his feet now. Should have gone much further if you had done it correctly. That is a stutter step smash :o

Hes not the only one who could do it but some characters get more range from it than others.

I will get youy an explanation also I will chang the name of my thread maybe!

 

[Da N]

Yeah that helps.

I guess the shutter step could be helpful in some ways but im already able to hit with the incredible range it has.
