This replay is very old but I finally got an SD card and can now share this with G&W players. I was doing random vs random with a cpu and something weird happened. This is not the well-known up b invincibility, G&W was standing still and completely ignored an IC ftilt then proceeded to fsmash.

I was planning to upload this but due to the Wii's way of storing replays as .bin files, all I can do is upload it for everyone interested to download.

For those who don't feel like paying close attention to the whole thing, it happens shortly after a sopo CG toward the right of FD, on G&W's second stock.

I'm sorry if this is irrelevant or nothing special but it did seem VERY strange to me, as far as I know IC's ftilt cover everything right in front of them. I tried to recreate it on a G&W standing still in training mode and it never happened again. Maybe this could be a strange ''possibly exploitable'' hole in G&W's hurtbox? Or maybe a very weird invincible frame in his idle stance?

I'm interested to have this explained by someone with a lot of knowledge of the game.
