ways to extend link's recovery

[jigglesthepuff]

as we all know, you would be better off trying to fly with a bag of bricks on your back than using link's up b to recover. if there are any ways to extend it, even just by a little bit, post it here. is there a way to effectively use bombs to recover? is there a move that lets you hover a little bit like puff's pound?

 

[M4TT]

nope. Nothing. besides bombs which only work if you've been blasted high enough

That's the max. Link can do:

By doing the upB at the max height of your 2nd jump right before you start to descend. That's pretty obvious but the same principle goes for kirby/jiggly even more.

you main kirby, of course it's obvious for you.

Seems he just threw the bomb down. Is that how you bomb jump in this game? o.o

link's recovery is probably the worst recovery in the entire franchise, and that's the only way i've seen somebody extend it.

He buffered the down input so he doesn't "throw it down" like you normally would.

And as you see in the video bomb jump always turns you around the opposite way, so you have to actually land on the stage which furthers the height you need to recover with it.

What Uair said + sick DI

the boomerang toss will propel you slightly more forward.

No it doesn't, It just locks your current speed which even at max isn't going to give you any more speed than what holding the stick left/right would do.
