So the other day I was playing a Cloud CPU on 3DS and I was playing fox. The cloud CPU used finishing touch on me at around the 75% range. Just as the animation started, I used fox's reflector as a last ditch effort to avoid the attack. Now for someone reason, the following happened:

-The camera zoomed up on me as it normally does when hit by fi sniping touch HOWEVER
-Cloud got knocked away by the reflector, so it could be assumed my hit registered first
-Oddly enough, I also received knock back (wasn't paying attention to whether received damage or not) however it was severely reduced. I was in kill percent range.

So what happened?

Also I would have the video up here but I was stupid enough to skip past the results screen without saving the video. Sorry. The best I can do is try to replicate it with a friend at some point.

I'm gonna guess you soaked the hit with shine's invincibility and simultaneously hit Cloud with the hitbox. You then got blown away by the windbox of Finishing Touch. I do this a lot to my casual friend's Little Mac, when he goes for the KO Punch.

If you were in hitstun or took damage, then I have no idea.

Thanks for the reply! I think I did get stuck into hitstun, though I might have been shocked that I didn't get KO'ed. Also shine has invincibility frames? Didn't know that!

Did you use the reflector while you were standing on the ground?
