So... is Samus good?

[Savez]

@Peligrad I still have to grasp the timing on the spike but I feel you're mostly right. I also don't see enough ppl missile spam or charge shot on the stage just as a bait as it cancels VERY fast into the grab

If custom moves are allowed I can see Samus being really good, the slow charge shot/missiles are killer area control tools and trip bombs allow for interesting setups. Her base move set is (like others have said) probably around mid tier though

As a side note, the fact that you can grab while you're charging charge shot is like my favorite thing ever (idk if it was in other games, I discovered it by accident today )

Ordinarily, you can't jump while charging. But you can shield! since you can shield, you can jump outta shield. Therefore, enabling you to jump at will while charging.

If you do it fast enough, it'll look like you can jump without shielding. You can also spot dodge like this too. Or fair/dair/uair/nair/zair.

The more you know!
