I'm no expert, but I think stage positioning and character variation determine escape options how easy it is to cover. Also, how are you desyncing nana for the turnaround d smash?

Glad we had a civil discussion over the internet that resulted in us both learning things about our characters we did not understand prior.

I guess I misunderstood what you meant, my mistake.

Wouldn't it be easier to grab off an f smash because you can control when the f smash is let go, don't have to worry about multiple hit boxes, and don't have to worry about the positioning of nana when you start your desync? And if the hitstun changes from when you're hit to when you're being...

The optimal rest punish is desync-charge f smash-release f smash-grab. Beats out pre mashing for a raw grab and potential SDI from blizzard. https://youtu.be/djJ9DgHtHq8?t=3m38s Wobbles does it here. Puts the opponent in hitstun, so they can't mash before the wobble starts. I've certainly used...

Huh, so maybe I don't suck. I've been trying to work on it, but couldn't get it either out of AC bair. Maybe doing a quick dash dance desync could provide a similar purpose, but it's pretty weird that std doesn't happen after AC Bair.

I think that most of this also relies on stage positioning, which would limit their options enough where I feel this to be good. mid stage or on a platform doesn't seem like this would be strong, though I think that mixing up wavedash back as Popo and dash back in as popo would make it scarier...

Yo, what's up, I've been coming up with new mindsets and playstyles to adapt into my overall game, this is what I've been working on: So, as Falcon, I'm quite a fan of his shield pressure in try to bait you to act out of shield and then punishing for it, so I thought, "Let's try it with ICs"...

Thanks, that's super helpful!

so, to get the auto cancel, I have to bair as soon as I jump? About how many frames is that?

Hi PP, due to some things in my life, I currently cannot go to tournaments, but I still want to improve. I only have an hour a night to play, so I plan to focus on general tech, movement, and desyncs. During the day, I have time to study VODs of mid level ICs, and read (currently the art of...

I hear a lot of people talk about Auto cancelling back air, but I don't think I've ever did or consciously thought to do it? Can anyone explain the frame data to it, when I should fast fall, things like that? I see the frame data, but I'm not understanding how to apply. Any resources how to...

I never thought of counting jumps. That seems so obvious now. What positions on stages, generally speaking, are best in this match up? Center stage seems like the obvious answer, but I want to know why.

I really appreciate the notes. What if puff is doing jumping bairs above the side platform of a stage? Is there anything that counteracts that? What do you do in that situation?

I remember some time ago that the solo dash notch for ICs was once a moonwalk notch, am I remembering wrong or was that once a thing?
