between doing one move and doing a combo (min 3 moves), there are wonders. wonders are 2 consecutive hits in which landing the first practically guarantees the second.
there useful for potentially obvious reasons. since the second hit is practically guaranteed, you do more damage. wonders are just one step away from being a combo, which is why i'm so interested in them. they carry the same, although diminished, effect of making the opponent sad. spirit crushing "theres nothing i can do" "oh snap" "samus is a beast" kind of sad.
throw out some wonders of your own. additionally, i'd like to use this thread to discuss ways to follow up every attack, even if the only way to follow it up is in a very special circumstance

double zair - you and your opponent are about to land. you zair and cancel on the land, your opponent gets lagged in the air and you immediately SH zair. try to sweetspot the second zair
fair zair - full-jump fair, get the last hit and zair. depending on your position relative to the ground and the opponent, this one could lead into a combo. i wonder if this would work SH'd, does connecting with an aerial still extend her air time?

I might've actually supported calling them "wonders" had you used the spelling, "wundrs" and not preemptively try to keep me from bringing up the pun.

You suck as bad as Xyro.


EDIT: I'm sorry man, you know I don't actually mean something that harsh. You're nowhere near as bad as Xyro.

i need to make a vid about these. today was crazy. i did more wonders every match than combos and singles combined. wonders are a critical part of my game.
how would i organize them in the vid, since some wonders are short? a collage would be almost a blur

Y'know, making it so people have to watch the video over and over in order to catch everything won't increase your view count. ^_^
