I'm not entirely sure if this has been mentioned before or not, but I'm positive I haven't heard of it here or anywhere else.

A friend of mine was practicing short hopping aerials and found out that just like when you do an UTilt by holding up and pressing Attack, you perform an instant USmash by holding up and pressing Jump + Attack.

It kind of comes out as fast as the C-Stick did, and usually trying to Smash out of a shield doesn't work that well, if you don't let go of shield you will dodge or grab, and if you first have to let go Shield and then perform a Smash it takes a lot longer for the Smash to come out than you would like to, usually making a tilt or grab safer. But, this method of USmashing not only comes out instantly, it comes out without the need of you letting go of the shield.

I'm positive we will find more and better uses for this, but in the meantime I think this is looking pretty solid.

Again, if it had been mentioned before, I apologize. Discuss.

My slide pad is a bit... insensitive, so if this works I'd be interested to try it! Too often I end up with a tilt when I want to smash.
