Smash 4 Social Thread 3.0

[Croph]

I used have a lot of lag playing online, and usually after every match I got disconnected. I tried everything, even restarting my internet. I was about to give up playing Smash 3DS online, but then I tried playing in the basement (more closer to my router). And guess what? I'm lagging and disconnecting A LOT less now. It's so much better... I can't believe I didn't think of that before lol.

I'm actually the biggest poor sport in video games. I was playing a match with 2 friends. I was Greninja, they were Robin and Peach. I accidentally side specialed two different times instead of up specialing so I just kept SD'ing out of frustration for the rest of the match since I knew I wasn't winning anyways.

I SD'ed 11 times.

Looks like you guys fell for the feint I pulled. Look back at the post that USED to have that Nostalgia Critic video in it

Probably, they still might want Goku too

Let's put Toro Inoue (the Sony cat) and Master Chief as well!

Good to hear, but that "More closer" though...

Do you remember the name of this person?

Nope. Do you know one?

Well thank god my computer (therefore my DS, I never leave my computer chair) is right freaking next to my router.
Whoop whoop.

So you tricked us? You were just hiding in the shadows waiting? Like a ninja? Cliffjumper really is Naruto. Confirmed by himself.

[Blargg888]

Yes. I do know a good Shulk player. And I myself have been practicing Shulk quite a bit recently, and I've gotten better. The reason I'm asking this is because I've played so many Shulks, but there is only ONE good one I ever played.

It's CliffJumper. Nobody gets him.

IT WAS ALL JUST A SOCIAL EXPERIMENT!

I laugh at the CPU's pitiful attempts to use Shulk.

*activates jump with his double jump remaining*
*just uses Air Slash too far from the edge and dies*

Pretty much anything you say can be put right next to this:

I just realised something.

@ Jason the Yoshi could never have jumped off a cliff if he's still alive talk to us.

YOU LIED TO US ALL ALONG.

WHY WOULD YOU DO SUCH A THING UNDER OUR NoSeSss... *sniff**sniff*

Several explinations:
1. He used his ninja naruto powers to survive. (Okay, enough of this joke for now)
2. He wears a parachute
3. This is the Ghost of Cliffjumper
4. He's a dirty lying jerk.
5. His definition of cliff is the same as our definition of table
6. He doesn't know what a cliff actually is, and just made it up, (See 4)

 

[MunchyMunch]

He's Chuck Norris.

Not sure if reference to Nostalgia Critic (because, y'know, we're talking about CliffJumper) or just a Chuck Norris joke.

I don't know what's sadder. The fact that CPU Shulk is so dumb, or the fact that most human Shulks are worse.

*sigh* one day...

One day human Shulks will learn the risk of using Buster at 0% and finally get good.

I actually started out doing that as well, but I'm better now. Once I finally learn when the best time to use Shield is, I'll finally have gotten all of the arts down. I have already used shield successfully once though.

 

[ThatGuyYouMightKnow]

If I'm right...shieldstun canceling is in.

Yes. Shieldstun canceling. It's, apparently, possible. Or by some other reasoning, you can act a lot faster out of Shieldstun now.

Back in previous gameplay videos with Keitaro which I'll post below in a second,

Spoiler

(Here it is in .webm format: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4bzhojlyfzu1eip/Hitlag Cancel.webm?dl=0 (Original Video Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjbNBMOuNvE&t=0m19s))

I saw Marth shielding, Pikachu runs up to him and SH fairs, Marth is able to grab INSTANTLY despite Marth still being in shieldstun and Pikachu was in TREMENDOUS hitlag. Normally in Smash games, electric hitlag/shieldstun would freeze you both for a long time (longer than regular hitlag/shieldstun) and you can't act. In Sm4sh you can unshield/shieldgrab instantly during shieldstun no matter what, even while the opponent is still stuck in hitlag.

I have also punished every single Greninja dair on block JUST by unshielding and utilting ASAP with DHD. No, you don't need to perfect shield.

What does this mean?

-PacMan's dash attack is NOT safe on block (I am able to consistently shieldgrab him out of it despite the move having pretty much no openings to attack, because I'm shieldgrabbing as soon as I'm hit on shield for the second hit)
-Greninja's dair is NOT safe on block (People need to stop thinking this move is safe, especially not now that you have a new way to punish it)
-Nearly everything in this game is probably punishable if it's shielded and reacted to properly

This changes a lot of things because it means certain characters who relied (at least somewhat) on gimmicks that revolved around dancing on you can't do it anymore. (LITTLE MAC, Sheik, Greninja, Jiggly, Fox to an extent)

I've been consistently punishing Little Mac's ftilt by reacting to the second hit, unshielding and ftilting with DHD.

Shulk is an enigma. Nobody can handle him.

 

[Blargg888]

I love fighting Sheikk players as Shulk. They think that they can use burst grenade, but NOPE. Counter is Shulk's friend.

I learned not to buster at 0% after losing to lv 9 Captain Falcon taking advantage of my debuffs. Speed is better. I'm pretty good at tanking with shield, but I am awful at using jump. I've only used it for recovery once, and I had already used my second jump. Jump does increase height gained from Air Slash though.

IMO, Shulk's counter is one of the most satisfying moves to land in Smash. Not only is the effect cool, it also has really good range.

It's even more satisfying when your opponent screws up the counter. (Ex: I hit a countering Shulk with Greninja's down air, and due to the bounce, the counter attack misses.)

So I just looked up CliffJumper. Apparently, he was a (toy)clone of bumblebee, reckless, terrible at stealth, made false accusations, almost died, then got demoted to a background character. Why'd you name yourself CliffJumper again?

Problem with that is that I've never seen anyone else land Shulk's counter.

He wasn't demoted, he was only used as a background character after the movie when his voice actor quit the show.

As if Shielding wasn't safe enough already. My hopes for the game being any faster paced just went way down the drain.

Speak of the devil, I got Shulk's CPU from the Random Box.

It used buster when I was at kill percent and got me to rage percent using buster so it was easier to kill him.
