View Full Version : Arrow through back trick

While doing a double arrow or any arrow cancel tap the opposite direction after hitting B on the canceled arrow. The button pressing has to be timed very fast, it can be compared to fox's wavedash in melee for all who want to try.

Watch the bow in the video. When Toon link lands, the bow will face the wrong way.

Video done in training mode against humans.

This can be implemented to get a quick turnaround to start bair combos earlier.

Good find... but I doubt it'll be named after you. It's a tad narcissistic to name something after yourself. Usually only combos are named after their creator, and they're not self-proclaimed. So lets give it a better name =D

If you're joking (that smiley face through me off... xD), then forgive me >_<

it's a shame that in reality firing arrows point blank at your enemies face is only going to get you punished.

i cant pull this off, someone explain it a little more indepth if you can.
isnt it just an arrow reversal close to the ground yet airborne? how do i cancel it?

I depends, if you do a lot of SHDA while approaching this can really help you not get punished and combo faster. If you can get people when they jump so they get hit with both arrows then this works really well but it's all situational so you need to learn when it would help you to use it and when it would probably get you into trouble.

It's not that hard once you get the timing down, when you do a SHDA right after you hit b for the second arrow you tap the other direction and you should be facing the wrong way with your bow.

It work because the arrow comes out before the bow does when you do an arrow cancel, so if you are fast enough you can turn around before the bow animation starts after the arrow has already come out

Maybe its just me but ive been calling it BattleChrist' ATB lol. On a side note I find it much easier to pull off in the heat of battle so thats a major plus!

This seems like it would only be useful in just a handful of situations or to show off. This is probably however best used in free for all modes.
