What is the difference between a nair and rising nair with Marth? Thanks for clearing up the confusion. :bee:

It's a nair with vertical momentum, usually performed close to the ground. It would be no different than a rising nair with other characters.

Since this is already a Nair, thread...

Dash SS Nair, FF Dash SS Nair... can trap characters... and guaranteed if improperly DI'd against...
And Air Dodge isn't too good against it either, since Nair has 2 hits, and usually, 2nd hit will still land.

I bring this up, because: It looks strange, because of a horizontal momentum (which was not canceled) along with Nair's vertical momentum.

And with this, if correctly executed, should be able to hit most character's excluding Kirby, Jiggles, (I haven't tested) with the second hit.

I mean, I've only done this with bad players, and level nines... so I'm not sure if it'll work on good players. But i don't see many people talk about this or do it... I mean I see people use SSNair as their taunts... But ya

A rising Nair is a Nair that originates in Japan.


Fun fact. Nair has the most knockback (and kill potential!) tippered of all Marth's Aerials if I remember right, including Fair and Bair. >>

rising nair is when you jump and immediately press the a button to rise with it. A normal nair is just doing it as you're falling.

Since we're on Nair fun fact. The first hit of Nair usually chains to MANY of Marth's quick moves, such as Jab, any of his tilts, Dsmash, perhaps Fsmash (depending on %) Dancing Blade, and Dolphin slash, since it has set knockback (very little).

Some attacks many need to be reversed.
