Star K.O.'s on Meta Knight?

[xiferp]

How often do you get them, and how?

I rarely ever get them, since I rarely find my opponent that high up with that much damage. Usually with Tornado and sometimes SL. I only ever Star KO people with Uair in 4 player games, probably because that's when I see people over 150% floating around.

I guess I'm just wondering if I'm missing something about MK that lets him get kills upward too, or he really just leans more toward side and bottom kills.

I'd say about a quarter or half the kills in certain matches are Star KOs for me, with most of them utilizing Meta's Utilt; from what I can tell, his Utilt works almost just as good, if not as good, as his Usmash, and it's devastating to use in platform stages like Battlefield and Lylat Cruise, since the tip has enough height to go through the platforms.

Woah. I still don't know how to pull those off when I want to. It's either a jump or an Usmash. >< Is your tap jump off?

 

[R1ngo]

it's alot easier to do utilt with tap jump off

Yes. I'm so glad this game lets you turn off that drat option now.

 

[xiferp]

I figured, but then I use the control stick to jump more often than I find myself in situations where I'd want to utilt. Or is this just me?

 

[Master Raven]

I personally never got used to using the control stick for jumping. It's just so much easier for me to use the buttons.

I'd say about 1/8th. Up B out of shield is great, but I don't Star KO with any other moves .

I wish I could turn off tap glide (tapping left then right, or vice versa for the other direction, while airborne). Does this piss anyone else off?

I rarely get star KOs. Maybe 1/20 of my kills is a star KO.
