Good work on helping with the MK frame data. It would really help out our community if you could do this and I would greatly appreciate it. Also if there is anyway for me to help with this then just tell me and I will.

I didn't know that Diddy also had invincibility frames on frame 5 of his Up-B, I know MK does though, this is going to be so useful.

i was talkin about MK not diddy........

My combo video will be delayed a while more.

I want to get a lot more (high quality) footage, and phase out the terrible, 4+ month old footage I have mixed in at the moment.

Even though I'll be getting rid of some great combos, that's not the point of a combo video. The point is to make it a flash spectacle.

Also, I want to use this thread more. If we keep this bumped and active alot, people will be more inclined to post their questions in here.

So think of it as a pseudo-chatroom. I don't think you'll be faulted much for talking off-topic in here.



So. How bout that US election?

Great trailer...Lol. Trailer.

Also. Hey everyone, I wanna pick up Diddy Kong as a secondary. Hopefully...
So I might hang around a little bit and ask n00by questions every now and again. I hope you can endure me :).

See ya's round.

Yow
Hum i was reading Luigi Boards's "join me" topic asking if sh double airs could be writen as DNAir, FFAir and stuff like that, so i though we should think of a faster way to write backward downawards glide toss, frontward upward glide toss etc... >.>
What about BD glidet for backward downward glide toss ?
We must decide of the order of the stuff : direction of toss or slide first, stuff like that ; and both if and how we reduce glide toss's notation...
If you guys already do that... meh... what's the used notation ?

I guess Backwards Down Glide Toss could be abbreviated as BDGT, which would be the same as a Backwards Dribble. Hmm.

I always find that the best diddy's are the ones that constantly use glide tossing to approach. I'm not that good at it yet, but glidetossing a banana toward your opponent then down smashing seems to be one of his best moves.

Greetings Diddy-players! =)
I just started testing out the ape of yours.

I messed around with his dash attack against the CPU for a while, and now I have a question for you guys..


You know when DA'ing back and forth through your opponent without hitting em with the last hit they get stunned so that you can perform another DA...

IS this a lock? Or does it fail Vs human players?

Just a little something I've been doing lately with Diddy. A lot of my Diddy style revolves around grabs and tech chases so heres a little surprising trick to pull on your opponent.

Not !!!! Breakthrough AT!!! or anything. But if you do a D-throw and run towards your opponent and do a sliding shield grab you can usually get them again. It's pretty unexpected (judging by the facial reactions and screams of hax on those I've pulled it on.) I've actually gotten 4 of them i na row off on one person.

I've got a string of like, 15, in my upcoming combo vid (Though it gets interrupted a few times) :laugh:

It's like Dedede's chain throw.

During a running animation, you hold shield, you should stop running, bring up your shield and slide a small distance. From that, you can shield grab.

lol I sometimes dthrow and just run to them and dthrow them again. But this usually only works with not so good players.

It's still a really funny thing to do though.

So the Sonic Chat Thread is finally dead. Poor guys.
We need to use this thread more often for random chat/discussion.

I'm going to annotate my posts with mankey from now on

So what're you up to? I read the last page or two in the MK ban thread.

I remember when you first posted that vid about charge cancelling.

I'm putting up vids how to beat MK with certain chars since NO ONE has the balls to do so or bother to learn it for themselves.

I reckon. I get annoyed with all the players in my state that ***** and whine about it and openly admit that they're too lazy to do anything themselves. Despite my anti-ban campaigning, my state has decided to softban MK and there's crap all I can do about it :(

I think I've figured out how I'm going to collect Diddy's frame data. It's going to be a long project though.
Good thing I have 4 weeks of paid leave coming up soon.

If there is anything I can do to help the project then let me know Vyse.

And yo NinjaLink I would lyk to see your approach on "good" Mk players with Diddy, if you have any vids with him that is. I have actually put in work into figuring out how to fight against him but I must say MK still remains the hardest match up for me to learn. The only thing I have really figured out is how to gimp/edge guard him :( so any help to the Diddy character match up against him gets a thank you and jamaican luv from me :) lolz.
