[FBC] ESAM
Smash Legend
ESAM here with a breaking discovery! Along with K_Prime, we have discovered a game-shifting technique for pikachu!
Basically, at the %s it says below, you can uair. This will give you enough time to footstool. When you are footstooled, you cannot tech the ground. So, you can initiate a QAL. However, with the properties of diminshing moves, you can use the uair and footstool until very high %s. This will let you get into a high enough % to jab lock. So, the combo is:
Uair->footstool->QA->uair->....->QA->Jab lock->Thunder
Tested in Debug mode, Brawl mode, DI+Fastest option

So there you have it, Pikachu is amazing. Have a nice day pikachus. I'll have a video up in the next week or so.

The reason this works is frame advantage.
At the % on the list is "When it is guarenteed no matter what" compared to "guaranteed if your opponent doesn't do anything for X (IDK real numbers) frames"
So there you have it, Pikachu is amazing. Have a nice day pikachus. I'll have a video up in the next week or so.
