Hello everyone! This is Mr. Escalator of the G&WBR, and I decided to make an open door thread for everyone to see some of our documented tricks/glitches. These don't exactly have to do with anything that goes on in the group, just some lesser known things that happen regarding our character.

The hazardous effects of Pit's Mirror Shield on G&W's health:

In this video, it's shown that reflecting G&W's upB with the Mirror Shield sends G&W flying in the opposite direction, usually fatal when done correctly.
As in the description, credit goes to both Ruuku and R@vyn for informing me on this one.
*It's pretty loud for some reason. Sorry about that.
Two Pirate Ship exploits:

G&W is able to Dair under the rock transformation on the Pirate Ship stage. Similarly, he is able to hide under the rudder of the boat, taking occasional boundary damage, but not dying if done right.
G&W's Norfair-Parachute Glitch:

G&W's parachute animation, for whatever reason, doesn't get affected by Norfair's large lava wave and random background spurts. This isn't completely investigated, as G&W occasionally is hit out, but it's still a cool find.
Neb's Oil Slicking:

Found by our very own Neb, G&W's unfilled bucket can trip Snake's Dsmash, inexplicably.
Short video on G&W's Uair in teamsaving:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rD6_pncqc3Q
Shows how G&W's Uair can be used for saving teammates in doubles, because of it's trait of resetting knockback.
G&W's UpB restored by windboxes:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZs5ti9nboA&fmt=18
G&W's UpB parachute can be restored when he gets influenced by a windbox, such as Pit's Wings of Icarus and G&W's Uair. This video simply shows this, since it's not a very well known fact (but more well known than these other videos), and it also shows an application of this feature through boss battles. Even less people realize that G&W can upB almost indefinitely on some bosses heads in Boss Battles, as they create a windbox around themselves. I don't think this applies for the Hands or Tabuu, but I havent checked. Definitely on Rayquaza, Petey, Duon, Galeom, and Porky.
Use this thread to either discuss the things shown in these videos or to point out other things that should be here but aren't included. If you find something, I can either upload it to your own account, or upload it using mine and will give you credit in the description.
