The Guide to Comboes/Techniques Named After People

[Laijin]

The Lai-Fire attack
Z-Drop bomb -> d-air with Young Link while edge guarding

coined in 05'.

 

[Roneblaster]

he guys, phanna didnt know i dropzoned a shy-guy until today.

 

[Cactuar]

pretty much all of these would be better of being called what they are lol

This 100%.

 

[ChivalRuse]

• Does Chu Dat have anything named after him?

He was probably one of the first to use ICs' SH auto-cancelled bair -> d-smash shield pressure.

Also, the patented grab -> headbutt -> blizzard -> d-throw -> dair -> regrab -> headbutt -> blizzard -> d-throw -> [any smash attack]. He popularized its gimmicky use on floaties especially.

 

[BigD!!!]

chillindash is the run at the edge and shine so that you slide way off i believe

an accident for most people, tink still does it and calls it that

chillin, correct me if i'm wrong

 

[Esper]

does noone remember the "Azen dash"?

 

[Kyu Puff]

He was probably one of the first to use ICs' SH auto-cancelled bair -> d-smash shield pressure.

he used it like once

chu would probably be d-throw d-air, or d-throw -> f-smash -> wd f-smash (with nana) on heavy characters--but nothing is really named after him

 

[ChivalRuse]

Oh, I had forgotten about the f-smash combo that Chu does all the time. Yeah, that'd be the ChuDat.

 

[stabbedbyanipple]

Drephen Shielding

 

[Juggleguy]

How the hell did you forget the Darkrain combo?

 

[ChivalRuse]

"Darkrain special": Stomp -> f-smash.

 

[WokeR]

Gimpyfish combo!!!

 

[Ocho(*8*)]

lmao "the dc homeboy"

aarosmashguy did the dc homeboy in 2006, but i'll let it slide cause nobody saw it except tapion

whats the dc homeboy?

 

[choknater]

i call it the mango, but it's basically when u aerial someone, fade away, they whiff shield grab, and u fsmash. most commonly seen in the early vids of mango's falco when everyone fell for it.

 

[Sizzle]

Champ Combo is Dash Attack - Up Tilt - Up Air

 

[Wretched]

Champ Combo is Dash Attack - Up Tilt - Up Air

With who?

How the hell did you forget the Darkrain combo?

Eh, I haven't updated it since the first day.

EDIT: First post is updated. Enjoy. If I missed anyone, please tell me. I'm not very organized.

 

[Stratford]

the lovezone
what is it?
down throw run off pivot upair?

Yes. (With Falcon, if not obvious)

And the PC edgehog, walk towards the edge, turn around, slide onto the edge.

 

[ChivalRuse]

With who?

With Fox. Does it even work with anyone else?

 

[Divinokage]

"Darkrain special": Stomp -> f-smash.

What the ****, I used to do that when I first starting playing this game, it's not special.

 

[ChivalRuse]

But when Darkrain does it, nobody ever DIs the stomp.

 

[phanna]

And the PC edgehog, walk towards the edge, turn around, slide onto the edge.

First saw Wes do this

Spoiler

but I also watched Samus mains more than anything ofc

 

[Wretched]

But when Darkrain does it, nobody ever DIs the stomp.

He did it to me like eight times in the one game we played.

 

[South_Paw]

The DoH should be the Smiles. Smiles was doing that years ago, he's the powershield pro.

 

[SpeedGhost]

I've bin calling forward throw -> KNEE with Falcon 'SHOWTIME' for the last year. Get's in people's heads when you say it as you're about to throw them. I know these are supposed to be named after specific players... So as of right now, I call it the 'SS SHOWTIME'.

SHOWTIME


Ohhh.. I'm also pretty sure that airdodging off the stage to death while trying to wavedash edgehog is called 'Azen Dashing'.

 

[Wretched]

If you try to name it after a specific person on purpose, it takes away from the original fun that comes with comboes with names. It should happen naturally.

 

[Caleb Wolfbrand]

Stomp knee is way too generic to be named after anyone.

Less commonly you non Young Link players should know the "Lai Fire Attack" is not something he discovered (I showed it to him a year before the name came about, and he said it was "not practical") but it's something YL players SHOULD do pretty regularly, so like a stomp-knee there isn't much signature about it.

Please remove that nonsense from the list.

 

[Wretched]

Where is stomp -> knee? I wouldn't consciously put that as a combo.
Also, I did say vaguely say that local terms are okay, and the fact that Laijin's technique is specific, I'm going to let him have it.

 

[Stratford]

First saw Wes do this

Spoiler

but I also watched Samus mains more than anything ofc

Oh, that's entirely possible. I'd just heard it called the PC by multiple people.

 

[slartibartfast42]

Pretty sure the king REST ends in downB not neutral B... XD

 

[Wretched]

Lol, sorry. I did that one in a cluster with the others. Thanks for pointing that out.

 

[Dark Sonic]

How DARE you forget the dreaded

TGM COMBO!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzZvR6CouV4

1. Dash attack

2. Smash attack

 

[otg]

The "Trap" (coined by TunaCasserole)

When Marth is on the ledge and tries to come up with a nair or a fair and gets CC ***** for it.

 

[Wretched]

If it's named The Trap, then it isn't named after a person.

 

[Cookiemonsta]

The Cookiemonster: Ledge/Wall teching into an aerial as a counter attack against edge guarders especially with Captian. ( Yes I'm self proclaiming this because I both do this very often and never see others do it both in gamplay or on vids)

 

[Cookiemonsta]

All the below can be consistently performed:

• Mango Rest (jab reset rest) [I think you have this one]
• The DaShizWiz I've always seen as ending a combo by KO'ing them with Falco's up-B Nvm that's the Bombsoldier

My main additions:
• Wobbling (ice climber infinite grab hits after Wobbles)
• Planking (edge stalling, named after Plank fka Plarinkk)
• King Rest (jiggs reverse nair to rest)
• The RockCrock (jump walltech forward air)
• Zhuicide (side-b suicide as falco or fox)
• Phannacies (lots of unecessary edge cancels)
• And more specifically, The Phanna Rest (edge-cancelled aerial into rest as Jigglypuff)
• JV# stocking (not a "move" per se, but certainly a smash event named after JV3x3 - where you end a match with 0% on X stocks so you are said to JV (X+1) stock that person)
• The SilentSpectre (moonwalk backair edgeguard)
• Isai Dropping (dropping through a platform faster by starting to move forward before dropping to reduce landing lag)
• HungryBox (wall of pain; bair spam)
• KeepSpeedN (fox shine + back-air in the air). Does Falco's Shine-Backair have a person's name?
• The Mew2King (Pausing deliberately during the match)
• Echo Slide (missing your dash-dance and doing the longer turnaround after the Samus player Echo)
• Germ-grabbing (grabbing someone behind you as with Link)
• Tree-grabbing (self-proclaimed move by FastLikeTree)
• Hylian Lowrider (from the edge as Samus, jumping and firing a missile but still regrabbing the edge)
• The ColBol (moonwalking with fox)

Moves I know but forget the name reference:
• I've heard a fox edge-guard where you wavedash back, fast fall, jump back with a back-air as an edge-guard named after some fox player but I forget who...
• When a person runs off the stage then midairs back with a backair toward the stage, I originally heard this as the Lumbro (retired FL fox), then the Hostess (name of a crew) Probably different names regionally
• not sure if it's named after any players or if it should be, but raging after a match (eg throwing controller). Similar vein are excessive campers
• Drill-resting as jigglypuff (I first saw / heard N2K7 popularizing this)
• running toward and beyond your shielding opponent, then forward-smashing back at them
• Does Chu Dat have anything named after him?

Items that probably don't fit as well but I still feel compelled to mention as I brainstorm:
• The PoundSlap (serious posting)
• The Windmill of Fury was inspired by Wes I believe
• The Rohins (Luigi misfire SD after a jab)
• Nairplane taking off (spamming nairs especially as fox or the links), or HarrietTheGuy's Nair-Per-Minute challenge
• Horenado (Peach down-smash, also called the Mercedes combo [zero to sixty in 3 seconds])
• The Ka-Master (anything good with Luigi)
• The Gimpyfish (anything good with Bowser)
• The Taj (anything good with Mewtwo)
• Nipple spiking (CF true spike)
• Wombo Combo
• Johns

Your The Bombsoldier Combo "performed on" has consistently spelled wrong btw.

*Lmao at the Mew2King "combo"!!! LOL

 

[SSBMLahti]

Any combo ending with firebird is called the Taylor Swift combo.

 

[username12345678]

The Zhu mad combo - consecutive back throws on Fox as Falco


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQr3E6QY394#t=00m25s

 

[Wretched]

Thats already on the list as the ninja, or something like that.

 

[Juggleguy]

The Darkrain combo is listed wrong >_>

It's uthrow to dtilt to uthrow to dtilt to nair to knee

 

[RTpmwe]

Why ain't zelgadis special listed yet
