ok since melee is dead i can disclose my mad trix
here's one
how to live from sheik's fair
people say DI UP AND TOWARDS TO LIVE!! well guess what, they're WRONG!!!! sheik's fair hits a bit more horizontally than a nice 45 degree angle, its part of why its so deadly.
now we all know that perpendicular is max DI, but if you're holding up and towards you're only reaching 75-80% of your potential DI!!!
if you hold in between up and up/towards you get the exact perpendicular DI to sheik's fair. i have successfully employed this technique in tournament to piss off lonejedi once on dk64!
hope dis helpz.
