Sopo/Sona vs Fast Fallers

[Stray Element]

This may be known already (or it might just be obvious) but I've found that a solo Ice Climber can perform a down throw chain grab on all of the fast falling characters till about 70% (this means before they can break out, no legal stage is big enough to do this without reaching the end at least once and having to regrab). Even if this is common knowledge I just wanted to point out how awesome it makes me feel to chain grab a Falco with just one IC and bring him from 0-70% . It is great to see the face of your opponent when they think they are free from the chain grabby wrath of IC just because they took out Nana/Popo.

While I am on the topic of Falco, does anyone know a good way to recover when he knocks a solo IC off the edge? There is nothing more frustrating to use your second jump, and get hit by a lazer just at the start up so your solo squall gets you nowhere . Anyone got a tip (other than air dodging)?

for one, if he gets chained to 70, then he sucks. And what stage is long enough for that?

squall! Or if you think you can, just airdodge, and use your solo belay.

for your recovery question, have you tried using your second jump and immediately doing and uair? cause that gives some nice vertical height...

as for the dthrow thing...totally well known & nothing new lol

 

[Stray Element]

@kRaZyAzN: Uh, he CANNOT escape before 70%.

And yea, I figured it wasn't new, but its always nice to read what people have to say about things like this.

vs Fast fallers meaning.... like 2 characters? only like... wolf and shiek get ***** by dthrows alone..

 

[istudying]

What!? Downthrow with 1 char can't go up to 70%. Just can't.

What about MK, Lain. You can do it to him till maybe 40-45?

 

[lain]

MK can footstool you out of it (around 28-30%).

This is why if you're ever sopo dthrowing and your nana is far off, dthrow cg simply to stall so nana can get to you. At 26%, you can bthrow into nana after a single popo dthrow regrab and they cannot shake fast enough to get out (or at least, I've never experienced people doing it while mashing and making circles like mad lol)

If you're referring to your own statement earlier in this thread, it was pretty obvious...

Seriously? None of you have done this? Play against a Falco and try it, as long as u have the timing on the forward rush figured out you can do it.

Everyone in this thread knew this. Or they should have anyway.
