Hey p1 how'd that mm go against my brother?

 

[Shaya]

P1 is free against Australia.

 

[Player-3]

P1 is better than me so I'm super free

 

[Youngster Joey]

idk if diddy kong truly needs this but i was in the falco boards and they have an entire thread dedicated to learning the mk mu. falcos seemed to do really well against mk at apex since xzax almost beat nairo and i think dehf did too. maybe if we get character specific threads maybe diddy's will start doing better again? idk just an idea. im still a diddy noob :<

 

[Ayce God]

^ u don't have to be a pro to have a good idea

Best thing ive read all day

You can learn something from anyone

 

[Youngster Joey]

so are we gonna go with it? make character specific mu threads? like mk and snake and falco? not just those. which ever characters give diddy most trouble

 

[Tigrex777]

I think the general MU information should be updated, too. We actually haven't finished discussing all the characters like Fox and other select few that could be met in tourney at some point. I know there are a lot of obscure MUs I don't know yet.

 

[Gamer_Mason]

I think I agree with jellybeanman. I fought a Fox with my Diddy once and got knocked out of tournament. I use G&W against him in a friendly after I'm eliminated and my G&W wins. My Diddy is considerably better than my G&W and I get asked "Why I didn't use G&W in the tournament".
... I will admit to high performance inconsistency because that was only my second tournament.

MU threads would help a lot. I don't think they need to be extremely detailed. I'm at least certain it should be possible to discuss more than one MU at a time. Extremely intense analysis is fine I think for the top guys, but I think the club level might appreciate a larger volume of information sometimes so that it can prepare for those unfamiliar matchups just a bit better, instead of knowing one MU so well a dissertation can be written on it.

One might suppose that to do this, one should just watch videos. But a lot of the time when I'm watching a video, I forget to be critical. It's too easy to shut off the critical thinking center when watching a three or five game set. I think words help with this.

 

[Youngster Joey]

so i tested it out. diddy kongs side b does beat out falcos side b. so if you're feeling risky then it might be a good idea to read the recovery and side b also you can duck under falcos reflector when crawling. but the side b thing can be very useful i think

were these known already? i was told to test it but i was just told it was already known

 

[GDX]

maybe we should just copy paste some of the matchup chart stuff into a matchup thread of some sort

 

[Vega4]

which is the best way to SDI out of Rob's down smash?

 

[Player-1]

up.

[Youngster Joey]

What's the best thing for diddy to do when an MK has me on the ledge and is waiting for me? If I jump he'll jump and nair. If I roll he grabs or does anything he wants. If I do that drop jump thing.. Well that gets predictable. Is there a way to safely get a banana out when I'm on the ledge to help?

 

[Gamer_Mason]

I don't really know about safe, but I think you're okay if you do it perfectly
For BF, FD, YI; drop down and wall jump before plucking a banana, then catch it and re-grab the ledge (FD timing gets tricky, don't risk PS1, Lylat tilts, and I think it doesn't work on Smashville). Zinoto has a really cool Diddy video which includes getting bananas off the ledge using other methods, which might be safer against Meta.

There isn't really a safe way up without a banana. Get up attack under 100% is possible, but I think a Meta Knight is too dangerous for that. Don't waste your banana either, because then you have to pull out a new one and you're just asking to be gimped the second time.

It's okay if Meta gets your banana if you get back onto the stage. Even if you don't, if you can instant toss proficiently it still might even be favorable to having a Meta with his :abutton: arsenal on the ledge.

 

[vato_break]

i do ledge jump b reversal popgun cancel to bannana pluck and look where mk is and get back on stage from that usually.

 

[Napos]

alright, who is attending genesis3????

 

[Youngster Joey]

i have the slightest chance of going but there might be a chance i can go. it'll be my first out of state tourney and it'll be across the country but i hope to go!

 

[GDX]
