Too Drunk to Smash
I thought this was worth naming...
Leap in the air, start fire breath, aim Bowser's head straight down, and you'll have created "the pillar of flame".
This has two key uses that I've seen so far:
1. Since Bowser's fire forms an L-shape when it hits a flat surface, leaping at an opponent and doing this will ensure that they cannot escape beneath you as you descend upon them.
2. You will be able to hit opponents immediately below you.
#2 is key because the PoF makes for an excellent mindgame for immediately after your opponent dies and respawns. Typically, an opponent you've slain will be blind with rage and looking for that ever so coveted "avenger KO".
To combat this, stand on the VERY edge of the stage facing your respawning opponent. The opponent will run at you, not wanting to waste their period of invincibility. As they get close, leap in the air and start the PoF and angle it as you land to catch them. At this time, their invincibility should just be running out and you'll score a 30-40% damage on them.
It works like a charm. My guess is that most opponents realize what I'm going to do and yet are blinded by the chance for revenge and to not waste their temporary invulnerability.
