I really don't know what happened here. I'm testing his UpB side By side and the size of the hitbox and range of the move is unchanged.
Yeah, now that I've played some more, I'm not sure the hitbox is bigger or not. I'd love to see someone compare the two versions side-by-side.
I'm fairly certain that the hitbox is larger in some way since I'm able to combo Usmash to Up B (29 dmg) at a couple extra percents that I wasn't able to before because the opponent got hit too far away. Up B doesn't seem like it really has much more range directly in front of it off the ground though.
Perhaps, but maybe your opponents are DIing better than they have in the past. I guess we won't know unless someone can do a side-by-side comparison of the two versions. Either way, I'd say if they did make a change, it's not really that much of a change.
Yup, pretty much. I remember doing this to a friend in friendlies.
It would be worth checking if Dair comes out faster now too since it's been kind of slow at 11 frames.
Doesn't seem like it. I don't think the Up-B got buffed either. The video that D1 retweeted was uploaded before the patch. Just ignorance on the part of the uploader.
I don't think so. Still doesn't go high enough to land on top BF platform. You still need to angle it upwards to recover after dropzone F-air.
Hm. Will take a look.
I can't get it consistently so I guess nothing really changed but I'm not 100% sure, the tornado feels different to me anyway.
That tripping can randomly happen, I think it's nothing new x3 But yeah, it's helpful sometimes~
That's what I was thinking. I guess Sakurai just couldn't keep somewhat random tripping out of the game (but thank goodness it's not like in Brawl). It's just amazing to me that after playing thousands of hours of Smash, most of which were with Doc, that I've never once had that happen.
Could you get it to consistently trip? Had you ever encountered that before or is this the first time?
I believe a weak Nair was 5 and a strong Nair was 8 (and, of course, Mario was the opposite).
On the tornado there is a spiking hitbox on the bottom of the first hit and i think on the top of the third. Did you get it on one of those hits or a different one? Also im kind of shocked that you got a lot of tornado spikes and i can't get one. Any tips?
