Anyone who has play Wolf for a short while has probably experienced this. It happened to me twice last night, and I decided to never play him again because of it.

Ok, so when Wolf is coming back onto the stage, and you're in just enough reach for a forward-B, watch out. If you're trying to sweetspot it, and you hit the ledge just right...Wolf's face will smash into the edge of the stage, cancelling a ledgegrab, and he will fall to his death. Face cancel.

The first time I was like WTF, but after a second time I decided I'm not going to deal with something like that. I can't play a character that dosen't grab the edge every time like they are supposed to.

Yes, but as Drack's Wolf Guide says, it doesnt put you in a special fall, you can just up-B to the ledge after you hit the stage. You can use this for mindgaming if you can do it consecutively.

o.O that is serious a bad reason to not main wolf. I mean I have had the problem before too but he's still fun to use.

Well...if it's possible to up-B out of it I might reconsider. I'm still calling it a face cancel, though.

Doing it intentionally in order to nail your opponent with a full Up-B is priceless though.

Apparently not only do you not special fall, but, you get your jump back, too. It's a good thing, really, not a bad thing.
