too bad most characters can meteor cancel and survive such an attempt even at 50-ish or so percents <_<

You could always be like a sonic and try to follow up the footstool with another one.

Cuz you can SH Footstools and then fast fall after you reach your peak. V:

Marf's SH is pretty low for someone as floaty as he is. And he's a good fast faller. I'm pretty sure the window for being footstooled is long enough for him to SH FF to another footstool

he has like a roy ff its kinda ridiculous but all according to keikaku obv

also i don't remember if footstool jumps get affected by the same multipliers (in the grav code) as the normal SH/FH

obv i have played too much melee and stomping on ppl via a non-attack command is most intriguing

i dont have replay or recording eq but i can send a video of me doing it

the highest percent ? i guess would be like 50 ?

i just followed the character and footstoled before they could get out of stun

i was thinking, cant marth like footstool > spike ?

so even if the footstool is meteor canceled, they are still being spiked

and by the time i footstool my opponent we are a little under the level of the stage
so a spike at that low of a height is pretty much dead no?

Well, you can't Meteor cancel footstools IIRC. Just spikes.

So I'm thinking with Marth's gravity. If you Short hop the footstool and then fast fall into another footstool, you can spike the second one for guaranteed death.

Well you can just give me the replay.

I almost pulled this off on a peach at around 50% on WW. I had a lot of follow up time to do this.

This sounds too good to be true.

ok so i have a replay. i got my bro to pick shiek ( with di of course har har)

ok so basically there is spacing for this needed. marth needs to be able to get a dashed sh fair after the fthrow to be able to use a 2nd jump for the footstool.

if you are to close to the edge and just fall of the stage to fair it makes this more difficult to land a footstool because of character positioning after both situations.

1st stock = fail

2nd stock = perfect

3rd stock = another good run with a variation of a gimp i thought up.
i got back on stage to test again. 2nd run = fail

last stock = this works well at low percents lol

tell me a way to send this to you and i will

Have any of you guys ever tried DB first hit to dair? It's like a ken combo, and is a great mix up since no one expects it. Certainly try it sometime. I've been using it to intercept people trying to recover pretty effectively. It seems to work best if you hit with the outer hitboxes on DB first hit, then immediately do a dair without jumping. It almost perfectly places them in the right spot to get hit with the tip of dair. Only problem is dair's spike hitbox seems messed up and only works sometimes. In fact, I would love a fix for that...pretty annoying hitting someone with the tip of dair and either it passes right through them, or doesn't spike.
