Reliable because it's usually used off screen and an out of shield option? SH>Bair dive?

bair... Best Aerial In Reality.

Great damage on sweetspot, great knockback, a KO Move, and it doesn't lag.

You can't go wrong with bair... unless you misuse it.

I ****ing love bair. That's all I have to add. If you aren't abusing bair, there's something wrong with you. It's one of Sonic's few good moves.

My Bair gets stale fast, then doesn't kill when I need it to :(

Also, it has some slight momentum-changing properties, right? Like you actually move a little left+right using it? I think Tenki mentioned this before. Anyway, I think it helps getting the Bair to land; I've been spaced so that it doesn't look like it could quite connect, then somehow gets in anyway, when my opponent doesn't expect it :)

Boxidizing is B reversed Spindash.

It's called boxidizing cause it owns people like oxidizing owns metals.

As Sonic Fan said, Bair after a spring is too good.

Uthrow>UpB>Uair is awesome and all, but Uthrow>UpB>Bair is soooooo much cooler looking. Also useful mixup if ur opponent tends to immediately airdodge.

Use alot of Bairs towards the beginning of the match. Once damage starts racking up, switch onto other moves to unstale it. Then come back for teh killz.

I love google chrome. If I weren't using Ubuntu as an OS right now, since my internet is even poopier in windows, I'd be using chrome right now.

Oh yea, can't believe no ones mentioned yet the usefulness SHFF Bair>Fsmash/Ftilt. Recently I've been usin ftilt more though because it has better range, shieldpokes, and fsmash is easier to shield anyways.

Not what I meant fool.

foxtrot > reverse spinshot > bair > Spinshot again > bair.

tsk tsk. I'm disappointed, Box.
i cant believe im about to say this...

the move in the quote is pronounced as follows
boxidized boxcanceled boxcutting boxobair into (possibly) reversed boxcutter

i think that this could possibly be the most epic (and simultaneously) fail-ridden post ive ever typed on a keyboard....
ever

So uh, rampaging bair grabs are fun. It's like SHFF Bair ->Ftilt, minus the Ftilt + Grab.

You remembered what it was called pre-boxterms.

<3

lol, how could you forget? That was too epic. Does that have a new name now, cuz I honestly think rampaging bair grab is too sexy.

Boxobair is any moment where the Bair becomes of epic use.

So yeah, staled bairs. But how about getting hit with a dash attack then falling back down on your opponent for a nice killing Boxobair?
