Only a bad snake will blow themselves up. A good snake will just nade camp till he's out of CG range. If the snake is good at camping all he has to do is drop a nade, duck under the lasers, and time the stand up>throw the grenade. And what's the worst that could happen? You get lazered up to 40% and then you fight normal.
It's the same situation you were presenting. xPTo be completely honest, I couldn't follow the situation you posed. I'm kinda making a guess at it from here:
As far as the facing the wrong direction thing, you CAN B-Reverse a Popgun Cancel if you're fast enough. Good luck doing that under pressure, though
And of course you have to be cautious, but Diddy has more than enough tools to get Bananas back in his control in a short amount of time. Also, if Diddy is about to fall on a Banana (the point of your second paragraph?), you can just Side-B away from it or, better yet, pick it up with an Airdodge or falling N-Air. You can even Airdodge > Glide Toss for a quick retreat. That's what I do, anyway; between these options (and a few more), I rarely if ever trip on a Banana I'm going to land on (if I am, then the opponent is probably too good for me to handle anyway =-=).
I don't know what you said in the last paragraph :x
nooooooo, I've been destroying Luigi's recently on wifi, and I play BigLou regularly offline well, use to, because he hasn't came to a tourney all summer, but you need to be using bananas just as much as you would any other character.
What are the Banana combos? I've got a vested interest in finding out
no...he just doesn't get the bananas in the first place.
this. .
You're too slow!!&& You beat me to it Coyn
Well... Yes... That's why he's our hardest match-up (one of them, anyway); almost nothing we can usually use against others works on Luigi because he slides. It's not a point to prove; it's just a fact of playing Diddy that Bananas effect Luigi differently.
But technically, you can throw the banana anytime from a standard run too. If they get all mindgamed by it then use it but it has never really worked in my favor outside of perfectly spacing against long reaching attacks.
Charging it will make you go higher, extra fall or not. Just don't charge it over the blast zones, and you'll be fine.
I use GR on Marth because they usually try to jump up and Fair and i just Dsmash immediately and then we have D3 who if you buffer the grab attack then you both go off the edge and you can get a free spike. I also GR anyone who has a bad recovery.
That's a wonderful idea... I think I just found another way to bring the opponent to the ledge using a Banana Choke, actually (the technique might not work, but it's worth a shot >>). Unfortunately, Ledge Grab Releases alone don't merit their own thread, though...
