Close-ranged Nikita shot was dodged and I couldn't figure out how to lose control of the ****ed missile :p Everyone attacked me! Also, any time I've run into/blew up while standing on my own bomb.

I was working on my Grenade drop combos, and was working on the idea of a Drop Mortar Slide Throw. Well, got interrupted mid slide, hit up - Grenade exploded and resulted in the off-screen death.
Maybe not the worst error, but it was upsetting at the time xD

Having a nade counter attempt backfire on me so that it blows both me and my opponent straight up, but my opponent recovers from the stun time first and kills me skyward with an uair/bair. Happened more than once lol.

I had no idea.

Although it seems like doing that would be a good way to catch a hit in the face.

What's an effective way to DO that?

Get them in the habit of expecting you to aerial when they're above you. Then, if they're on a platform, hop up towards them from below. They may expect an aerial and shield, you anticipate it and c4 stick instead. Or, if you're falling from above, you can airdodge if they come towards you and immediately c4 stick after if you're still falling in tandem with them.

Accidentally pulling off an n-air when off the stage, falling helplessly to my doom. It happens all too much on wifi.

Apart from my C4's going off after a set amount of time while i'm standing on them, or setting a mine, rolling away, forgetting it is there and rolling back onto it ( >_> ) i have pulled out a nade, dropped it and picked it up again only to be launched into the air by my opponent, then as i reached the peak of my launch the nade went off and KO'd me XD

Problem #1

Situation: Planting C4 on my enemy only later to find out it stuck on me once I was performing a combo on him.

End result - I blew myself up rather then finishing him off with the attack

Reproduction rate = happens almost everytime!


Problem #2

Situation: Placing C4 on a platform somewhere and completely forgeting about it (Smashville for an example)

End Result - C4 happens to go off at the most random times when you're near it

Reproduction rate = happens ALL the time lol!
