Q&A The official "Ask Your Questions" thread

[Soft Serve]

What are the mechanics for the Giant Punch? I understand the charges are held in full, no partial charges between swings, but what about dropping and losing the charges? I find a lot of the time when i get hit out of a move (mostly Up-b, but f-tilt occasionally) while steaming i lose the charge and have to start it over. The same thing happens with Samus's charge shot, but focusing on DK, how does this happen? is there anything that i could change (besides not getting hit) to stop this? Thanks.

 

[KILLA.FOR.CASH.]

if you get hit out of your upb, you lose the charge on your giant punch. i dont think theres any method you can do to prevent this

 

[Soft Serve]

Thanks for the reply. I guess I'll just focus on recovering safely, that'll hopefully improve my game anyway.

Working on some new stuff against spacies. Hyperbolic time chamber.

Wish me, Phish-It, Ripple, and potentially Captain Jack luck at APEX! I wish PKM or RockCrock were going but that's the way it goes.

 

[Krynxe]

you guys (except probably cj) gonna stay dk?

Good luck. Hope you guys can make it through pools, it'd be awesome to see at least one dk in brackets :3

 

[Strong Badam]

My goal is to make bracket, but I'll probably only get to round 2. This tourney's gonna be stacked.

 

[Max?]

How many rounds of pools?

 

[Strong Badam]

Two apparently

 

[Pachinkosam]

one question how do escape a chain grab from DDD, falco, wario.

 

[Beat!]

This isn't Brawl lol

Are you trolling? With 703 posts you must've been aware of that.

 

[Ripple]

no DKs are going to make bracket, that would require we get a pool 2 to be full of foxes that don't ever realize that they can beat us by camping lasers and grabbing, falcos that full hop dair or cross up our shield and get up-b 'd, no marths at all, bad sheiks, falcon's that can't do aerial> gentleman. or 3 people that are deathly afraid of the DK match up

 

[Strong Badam]

Not with that attitude, Blake!

sorry my mistake and all 703 posts are not trolling.

[CptDiabetes]

Im bringing my dk as well. im in a pool with hungrybox...Ill be looking around for strongbad+crew.

Tang is beatable, dr.pp, good luck. lol

 

[CptDiabetes]

Imo, the best advice for going against falco is to get him off the stage then just go from there. NO, im not implying that this is easy...

 

[MEXICAN]

So i don't play anymore, and I hate to admit it, but i don't even remember enough to be giving advice anymore. I haven't touched a controller since genesis 2 and i probably won't again for awhile. Strongbad knows DK well enough to answer any of your guys' questions. I'm never on here anyway. lol. So this thread is all you Strongbad

 

[Strong Badam]

against Falco the main thing is to try to force a knockdown and techchase a grab or something. getting him offstage is a great goal as well, but a big thing to keep in mind is that despite all of falco's options in the neutral game, every character has the same set of options when they get knocked down.

mex... u should fix my name lol. :3

Tbh your pool is one of the dumbest pools there.

 

[GHNeko]

What place is DK in, in his crew? I'd like to know.

 

[Nedech]

[GHNeko]

[Strong Badam]

[GHNeko]

[Strong Badam]

Pfft, that's not it at all. I just don't play smash anymore because everyone always gets together when i have to work AND YOU ALWAYS HAVE AN EXCUSE FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO HANG OUT. lol

 

[standardtoaster]

Get ready for APEx.

Sup 15?

 

[CptDiabetes]

I know strongbad and ripple are going to apex, I was wondering if anyone would like to get a few friendlies in. Ya know, theres only a few of us brave dk mains going to this after all.

 

[CptDiabetes]

Glad I got to meet ripple+ strongbad today. I wish I couldve seen the double kong team...

 

[GHNeko]

Ripple was holding it down. I didnt see SB on stream tho ;_;

 

[Strong Badam]

I was only on stream for two games on friday, and they were in doubles. Teamed with VanZ against Shiz & Eggm I think? They were only friendlies but the games were really close.

DK tier list:
1. RockCrock
2. Nedech
3. Phish-It until I stop sucking at nationals I'm comin for you though
4. Me

ripple's DK is legit too it's hard to tell though because he uses Roy for some match-ups.
cuz PKM & MEX stopped playing

 

[phish-it]

Nah don't worry, I suck too. Who is Nedech and where is he from?

And did you guys end up doing that DK round robin?

 

[Strong Badam]

no. i played CJ a bit tho.

Nedech is from Sweden. He's beaten Calle W before.
