Something About the Nades

[AznNoob123]

Um. Today in a wifi match , I was using Snake vs someone's Marth , when i was at 128% or so I shield dropped a grenade and picked it up and ran into Marth tipped Dsmash ( being the noob that I am) near the edge of Fd and got knocked back horizontally and when I was near the end of the screen about to die, My nade exploded in my hand and stopped my horizontal momentum and sent me vertically up , and that gave me the chance to recover.

Is it already known that nades stop horizontal knockback?

someone inform me plz (couldn't record. match was 5min long due to me being a campy *******)

Yes, grenades tend to do that. They have vertical knockback, if you're holding one, and it explodes, you'll be sent flying up.

It resets most (if not all) of your knockback into vertical.

It's like being hit by one move, then being spiked. You'll just go straight down + have a chance to DI/SDI the hitstun.

Sometimes I'll pull a grenade to save myself from things like fsmashes. :x but it's generally not worth the % unless you know for a fact you are going to die.

Don't we still do that, SuSa?
