Victory Is My Destiny-The *New* Guide to Meta Knight by PEEF! Feb 1 2009 Update!

[Fox_kirby]

Awesome guide! I read all of it but It took me 2 hours:|

 

[Conspiricy]

I belive that Meta-knight's dimensional cape is massivly underrated, I've been working out some combo's and approaches using it. It is actually a decent move for mixing up ledge recovery and breaking predictable combo's up.

No. Its just bad.

 

[Conspiricy]

how is it bad? it destroys predictable approaches, follows D-throw up well and is great for punishing a dodge roll. It's tricky to use it well, but I think that it pays off.

how is it bad?

-It's attack has way too much lag to be viable.

-Its only uses are for mindgames and recovery, and there are always better recovery options.

No, it doesn't. I don't know where you're getting this from.

 

[Conspiricy]

Using DC I absolutely ***** a turtle approach, dash grabbed, d-throw, DC, FF SL.
It's great when used sparingly and unpredictably.

Try that on a player that doesn't suck. You'll see what I mean.

 

[Conspiricy]

Godammit, there's noone near here who is nearly good enough by your standards, although it has worked on many people online though.

All I'm saying is that the people you successfully pulled this off on obviously are not good. When discussing strats, character match-ups, techs, etc. on this website, we discuss them on the highest levels of play. It has nothing to do with my standards.

On top of that, you've been doing this on Wifi. Offline is what matters.

 

[PEEF!]

If anyone wants to make an update to my guide, just PM it to me, and tell me where it belongs. I play Melee now, but I know alot of people use and appreciate this resource. If you would like to do your part by contributing, you will be credited.

Please, no petty things, like sentance changes or opinions. If not alot has changed, then the guide will remain how it is, if it has changed, then write up a legitimate piece and I will add it to the guide. Thanks.

The matchups are wrong in terms of some characters. As far as I know Olimar and ZSS aren't considered easy matchups anymore.

 

[FelixTrix]

lol. a guide on how to play mk.

 

[Deoxyribonucleic_acid]

Get the **** out.

 

[WhiteOblv]

Seriously get out of here smash child.

 

[Overswarm]

If anyone takes any information from this guide, throw it away.

Seriously.

He MIGHT be right about a thing or two by accident, but this is not what you need to get better. This is full of noob tactics that work on noob players.

Mods, you really need to have this NOT stickied. This guarantees bad MKs will get worse.

Shuttle looping from the edge? Are you serious?

ROB is HARD to edgeguard? The character that moves at a slow max speed and can't air dodge and dies at 60% to a shuttle loop is hard to edgeguard?


Seriously, you guys need better stuff. -_-;;

 

[o-Serin-o]

OS, chill. The mod of this board will handle it.

 

[Nic64]

This...isn't sticky'd anyway o_O

 

[:mad:]

OS, chill. The mod of this board will handle it.

How can they handle something that nobody complained about? There was nothing wrong with what he said, though it was a bit out of line, if you're really that sensitive.

And Nic is right, at least it isn't stickied.

I'm just saying, no need to go crazy about something that isn't serious. TBH, if I was sensitive about something, I would have flipped out about it. >.>

Back to the D3 boards!

 

[Overswarm]

Subtlety isn't one of my specialties.

 

[Deoxys]

Combos:

D-throw > Grab Attack > F-air > Up-B:
Works very well. 33% damage.

D-throw > Grab Attack > Neutral B:
I normally get this to swing for +- 22%

D-throw > Grab Attack > D-air:
They DI down, you’ve got ‘em. 20-22%

It is impossible to do a grab attack without grabbing them again. So do you mean "d-throw > Grab again > grab attack until grab breaks > Fair?" I don't get what you mean. Either way, D-throw does not combo into another grab, but I am curious what you mean.

 

[FB Dj_Iskascribble]

he means pummel

 

[Afropony]

Yeah but you can't pummel them if you've just Dthown them.

 

[Omnicron's Baklava Enterprises]

Simply because D-throw sends them diagonally upwards, it would be impossible to grab in-air.

I'm very impressed by this guide; I'm going to try all of these techniques!

This will surely improve my Meta Knight.

 

[Deoxys]

he means pummel

Lol that's not the point:

you can't pummel them if you've just Dthown them.

 

[xXMeta-KnightXx]

Wow. This is a really in depth guide. This mustve taken hours upon hours of dedication just to write. Never mind testing the methods, gameplay mechanics to utilise.

Cheers man. This shall be evry useful indeed

 

[13th Nightmare]

This has helped me out a bit. I was playing Meta Knight last night after months of not playing him. And after last night and reading the guide, I know that I want to re-learn how to play as Meta Knight

 

[darksamus77]

This guide has merely confirmed that my MK strategy is effective-I use up-B CONSTANTLY and everyone hates me for it. However, I do believe Yoshi and Snake should be switched, cause I have much more trouble with him. but beyond that, AWESOME GUIDE

 

[xKirin__]

wow.. great guide!

 

[Weet]

TL;DR

I will end up reading this on a day where I have nothing to do but learn MK

 

[Kaffei]

I think this guide should be updated.

 

[dniMretsaM]

This is really great! The only thing I could suggest is that you mention glide canceling (I don't know if this has another name or not, so I call it "glide canceling") which is done by doing a glide attack and landing on any frame of the attack. If the angle is small enough you can slide a little bit when you land.

 

[Luxor]

I think this guide should be updated.

Yeah, it is getting pretty old.

 

[Vega4]

Yeah, it is getting pretty old.

Agree.
This guide has interesting information, but a lot of that is old, specially the match-ups...

The videos are now not accessible because they're private...
Why?
