Running jab desync. If you perform a jab while running (quickly halt and jab) and then perform a special, nana will perform the special by herself. I discovered this a few weeks ago. You have to input the special immediately after the jab, though. It must be very very quick

They call me shulk

A cool idea but unfortunately not that practical. Timing is tighter than it should be if you're trying to use this competitively. Not to mention sometimes nana will be the one attacking during the desync, other times popo will be the one attacking(yes, this matters). This creates inconsistency...

You're suppose to down throw then roll, then immediately Nair (u can press jump and A at the same time to make it quicker for the Nair)

Thanks a lot for the replies. The game is actually out in Australia so you can safely upload clips/footage of the game now. ;) Would be really cool to see a more visual and demonstrative guide! A lot of cool info in this thread, thanks for taking the time.

Thanks. Quick questions. 1. Wouldn't it be possible for nana to perform a special right after popo wiffs a grab by simply inputting the desired special as popo is in his wiff animation? How does the newly assigned special button make it easier? i understand that it makes it so that you don't...

Awesome. Cool guide btw. Nice to see people take interest in the IC's true potential in Ultimate so early on. With that said, how does the three frame buffer window for down throw feel? You think it could be done consistently? 3 frames is pretty tight..

Any way you can record some more demonstrations? It's a little hard to understand how to excute the techniques by reading the given instructions alone..

If anyone here thought that the ice climbers had no desyncs or grab follow ups in smash ultimate, check this out... https://youtu.be/aTWq6Uya5Tk

The short answer to this thread is no. https://youtu.be/ArAeGxYus5c

He seems to be having trouble desyncing. Not a good sign for the ice climbers. Rip. I know the game isn't out yet but they've had enough time to figure something out and the only thing we have is pivot f smash which SUCKS as a form of desyncing. Looks like I'll have to look for a new main for...

Not out of grabs, not out of a spot Dodge, not out of a roll, not out of a dash dance. There is no practical way to desync them in neutral anymore and it's honestly pretty lame. Granted, we don't have the game in our hands yet but it seems that practical desyncing options are virtually...

I don't know if it's just me but, I don't really like what they are doing with them. Seems like their eliminating desync options which bothers me. Desyncing was a very stylish form of getting combos and set ups... Now they just increased their raw damage output which is kind of boring... It...

In cases like that the game might employ a slightly lower resolution and lower the quality of some textures maybe..
