It seems to me that Ness has a few flaws that work entirely against him: - limited ground range - below average grab range (non dash grab) - not too many options out of shield against opponent who conveniently spaces an attack - recovery is simply degrading - gets grab released by...

This is interesting. It would only be safe to assume it was a glitch, as most AT's are result of brawl's mechanics. If this is a solid AT, then I'd love to know how to do it.

Thanks for the feed back.

The only thing Ike has going for him in this match up is his power and close-range skills in comparison to samus. His jab cancel will keep you guessing and because Samus has an awful side step, that can be punished if used too much. Samus can keep Ike at bay with the projectiles in her arsenal...

Using consecutive jabs with characters like Yoshi and Zamus can result in no damage dealt. I'm not completely sure what the reason it but my guess is stale move negation. It applies for jabs too. I was playing an lulz match as MK not too long ago against a Yoshi player. He grab released me...

Btw Dryn, Marth's backwards slide toss is EVEN further than Pit's. Marth can move 3/4 across Smashville with precise timing. His forward glide toss has harder timing but he can still go very far. Characters that can glide toss: Zamus, Samus, Diddy, R.O.B., DK, Pit, Peach, Marth, Meta Knight...

I personally think that Diddy has the advantage (with and without bananas too). Unless you can prevent a Diddy player from using his naners, he has the clear advantage and with good reason. Samus has a better defensive game in this matchup whereas Diddy has a better offensive game. Give or take...

I'm really loving this thread and the other threads here as well. I picked up Samus a little while ago and I've already learned so much about her! I learned to double homing missile and triple homing missle cancel. I learned how to cancel the lag of her bomb attack. Despite samus being nerfed...

I'm getting a mental image but I feel it's sort of off. Please provide a video if you can.

I don't agree with D3's match up ratings between Lucario and Snake. They aren't exactly easy for me. :(

This thread seems too epic to miss out on. DDD is a really great character and has been my main for quite some time. His bair has such good reach for a person with no legs. o.O

I've played too many good Ike players recently to say that he's a horrible character. When I hear the word "Ike" the words "bad recovery" and "slow" tend to come to my mind. Really good Ike players very well know how to work around these two cons and make them hardly noticeable. I never used to...

Very nice guide. Ike's QD is good for recovering from the top left or right corners of the map. I liked how went in depth on your descriptions. Keep up the good work!

Nice Ike player. I just got through losing to one on a AiB ladder match not too long ago. I even commented the 2nd video. :)

This guide is very promising and see much potential for it. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
