Charizard is too low. Gliding says hi.Wario and snake is too high. Once fixed its good to go.
Pit can basically dodge because of contol and 4 Jumps. He could go up high fast and back down quickly for a safe recovery.
How many times have you seen Yoshi gimped?
Omg, nowai. Lucas has Zap Jump and a tether. D:
You won't be doing it to Sonic because he rarely needs to use his up B.
His recovery IS better than Pit's. Pit doesn't have the range to compete with others who edgeguard him. His Up-B is not as good as DDD's either. While it doesn't happen often, it's significantly more gimpable. DDD's is only marginally more punishable, and it's usually difficult to punish with KO moves.
Samus's recovery is amazing. Due to being extremely floaty and bomb jumping, she can float offstage for a long time where almost nobody can reach her. Her tether is very useful due to its range, and her Up-B is difficult to challenge. She also has the ability to Z-air the ledge from knockback.
Good luck predicting Pikachu's recovery consistently. His Up-B is fast, and if he has good reactions, he's going to go somewhere where you won't reach him.
Falco's recovery is excellent in Brawl believe it or not. It is very good for the same reasons G&W's is. It gets great distance, and goes really fast. A good Falco is very difficult to punish while recovering. It's not easy to predict what he's going to do once he makes it to the ledge anyway. His recovery is only bad if he has to Up-B, which is rare if he DIs well.
Diddy's options for recovery are diverse and solid, and get him excellent distance. His SideB is fast, and difficult to react to. His Up-B can be used in areas where it cannot be reached, and goes far and fast.
When did I say his recovery was consistently gimped? His recovery is bad though, and is easily punished. He does get gimped more than other characters. His Up-B is horrible. If you hit him out of his second jump, it's extremely hard for him to make it back.
Lucario's recovery isn't bad. It's just more punishable than other characters recoveries. Actually making it back without taking a hit is difficult.
His recovery is much more predictable than the ones above him. It is not hard to punish his 2nd jump, and if he's unlucky, punishing his 2nd jump results in a gimp.
Charizard is slow, is not amazing offstage, and his Up-B doesn't go very far. Most characters can hit him before he has a chance to Up-B, and he's too slow offstage either gliding or using midair jumps to be completely safe from edgeguarders.
Wario has the Waft, he rarely ever needs to Up-B, and his amazing DI makes him ridiculously hard to chase down.
Quite on the contrary, Falco's recovery is amazing. It's hard to punish if he does it right, as usually, he's the one reacting to what you are going to do due to the insane speed of his SideB. His SideB also makes him amazing at escaping ledge traps.
He's still limited in terms of options offstage, and it doesn't completely solve the problem of his Up-B being very punishable. His tether doesn't have amazing range either.
Samus basically gets the same distance, is harder to outprioritize, and has a much better Up-B. Her DI down to tether is also the best in the game.
im pretty sure Foxs side b goes farther than falcos, but its slower, which actually makes it a little worse. Compared to Falco's though, Fox's Firefox is amazing lol
Yeah, it does go farther. And it is amazing compared to it but still easily interruptible.im pretty sure Foxs side b goes farther than falcos, but its slower, which actually makes it a little worse. Compared to Falco's though, Fox's Firefox is amazing lol
I dunno because although Popo can almost always make it back, Nana gets stuck in the dark a fair amount. And thats troublesome because that is very important to the IC
It depends on where the IC are but 80% is still a decent amount (I'm playing devil's advocate here because although I think she has a better recovery than Sheik but you gotta prove it).
He has 2 glides. 4 better jumps, use up B as a last resort. His glide is the fastest in the game. DDD's jumps are bad, and he has a predictable Up B.
This list is about when you're making it back to the stage, not prevention. Tethers are garbage in this game.
When he's away from the stage, he's either going to go to the edge or on the stage. It was set distance, a pause and 8 directs, it's not that hard really
His side B doesn't have great distance. It's predictable, a good Falco or not. He can be hit out of it with timing, SA, counters ect. It's not that good. Also the pause before he does it is a good gave away.
You forgot to mention that it gimpable and his up B takes time to charge.
Ummm yeah about that. The important part is that he can air dodge. Because nair strong or strong fair from a Jigglypuff knocks him out in the 40's or so and then fair, sourspotted fair, nair, sourspotted nair and bair all interrupt his recovery at 60%.
If you had to recover the entire distance of Bridge of Eldin, then yeah, Pit's would be better. But for practical purposes, ROB's up-B fuel is more than enough to make it back from anything. He can go under FD twice on one tank (or maybe 3 times if pushed, I've never really tried) and can survive multiple spikes from every character in the game, which is something that Pit definitely cannot do. Also, ROB's recovery has better vertical distance than Pit's. You'd be surprised how long you can stretch out a single tank of gas with interspersed fairs and a large boost with your last drop of fuel using nair. If there's 30 seconds left and ROB is ahead in %, GG because he can go hover in the top corner until time runs out.
Pt moves much faster than DDD and has much better vertical coverage than DDD. when DDD is recovering, he is a big, slow target and even if he doesn't get gimped, he will take damage and be forced to use his ^B which is extremely vulnerable.
She can only air the ledge if she is knocked horizontally which requires her to Di down which is bad because, if she whiffs it, it a stock.
this has got to be a joke. Hey guys, Falco has great distance on his side B, lets totally forget that several other character have just as much distance.
It has several DEAD angles. It needs to be charged, it can only move up to a certain angle and even then several other characters can recover faster, more greatly in distance, more safely.
Learn to airdodge and getting hit out of it isn't an issue.
