Whuzzam!
The last thing I said basically meant:
- Hold onto the ledge.
- Let go.
- Double jump.
- Do a bair/B.
- If timed correctly, you grab the ledge again.
Bair is for edgeguarding, B is for... stage... guarding?
Anyways, how do you do the backwards ledgegrab again? I seem to remember it not being humanly possible or something... or did Isai do it once? Bah.
Doesn't ducking improve your ability to parry someone's air attack, because when you press Z the parry hitbox essentially "jumps" up from the ground? Like...
|
|
|DUCKING <- Your hitbox is short
Turns into
|PARRYING
|PARRYING <- Your hitbox is suddenly 3x as tall or whatever
|PARRYING
When the enemy is at this height:
|ENEMY
|
|
So at the frame you parry, the other guy is above your ducking hitbox, but "gets hit" by your parrying hitbox.
I've never read anything about that, but I've seen Sossi lie becrouchédly in wait for an airborne opponent, then parry the air attack and beat the poor guy up. I basically assumed that he did that to pop the parry hitbox up from the shorter crouching hitbox... seemed logical...
As of last night, I've almost mastered the eggwhöre. ^_^ There's a particular combination of [wait time after letting go of the edge 'till doublejump] and [wait time after doublejump 'till Up+B] that makes Yoshi throw the egg from under the level of the platform, as opposed to having to pop up above the platform, throwing, and falling back to the ledge. So basically, he's under the ledge the whole time, and thus cannot be projectile'd back.
