Yoshi ~75% Kill Setup+Up Air Buffer

[YoHeKing]

Basic video about the double up air kill setup that can kill pretty darn early. Opponents can DI but you have way to much time to react to it even if your reaction isn't the best. You can do similar things with this at lower percents when it won't kill like:

• uair>fair
• uair>bair
• uair>dair
• uair>footstool/downB
• uair>nair
• uair>egglay
• uair>uair>uair

List can go on and on but ill save that for another time.

I play Melee and Project M Yoshi alot. Would it be just the same as having default controls and DJC U-air? or is the only way to effectively do it is the change the controls?

Unlike Melee and PM, DJC does not exist in this game as it did in previous titles. DJ can only be canceled with some special moves.

This is the optimal control setup because any other setup requires either very fast fingers, or tap jump on which is awful for Yoshi as it's very easy to accidentally burn your double jump with tap jump on.

Theoretically you don't need this setup, however, without c-stick it is impossible to buffer up air. Learning the perfect timing for inputting up air without buffering it in jumpsquat would be a tremendous waste of time and energy.

 

[YoHeKing]

Actually you can do it without it. Theres actually a big range between the middle of c stick and upwards were you can up tilt and neutral B at the same time but you can actually buffer up air with it also.

Neutral b or holding special?

thx for the list. I was too lazy to test that myself

Well ofc you've known this since the trailer was announced.
