    Bowser MU discussion

    Huh? Anyway...here: 1. Don't approach. 2. Whiff punish. 3. Edgeguard. 4. GG.

    Any Charizard specific tech?

    Hi, I just started labing with Charizard a bit myself and these are some of the things I've decided to work on. I'm obviously not experienced at all because I'm just starting, but maybe this will help. On Ledge Options: Regrabbing with down-b and b-reversed down-b (not sure if these are fully...

    Let's share combos

    The problem with Bowser's jab reset is that his jab-1 has relatively high damage (6) and relatively high KBG (91). This means that most characters at mid or low-mid percents will be able to buffer a roll (or another option) because the KB will be too much for the guaranteed forced get up...

    Bowser general discussion thread.

    Yeah, the full hop DJ snap to the top platform and short hop DJ snap to the side platforms (when at full height) is actually pretty easy once you get the feel for it. But I've found JCing BB is a lot harder to time. Do you know what frame you need to JC? Also, any other stages you've found the...

    Edge Canceled Down-B

    Ohhh, I see. Yeah, I know about that glitch; it can be pretty annoying at times. What Chaos and I are referring to is different. The down-b animation is canceled without ever grabbing the ledge, just like you can ledge cancel normal aerials with every character. So Bowser does a down-b halfway...

    Edge Canceled Down-B

    What is the "it" in "it happens without using down b"? Aren't we talking about edge canceling down-b? If it is a glitch it must be a super specific one because I tried pretty hard to replicate it without hitting anything and came up empty handed (except for the sweaty controller, that is).

    Bowser general discussion thread.

    In general, I think getting to the ledge with down-b is one of the safest options. Yes, you'll still be at a disadvantageous position hanging from the ledge, but Bowser has a lot of good ledge options so getting up is usually easier than getting down. From the top platform like in the video you...

    Edge Canceled Down-B

    Thanks Chaos, I bet you're right, it must have been the wind on Dreamland. Looks like it only happens when bowser is pushed toward the ledge as you said. Disappointing it can't be done on command, but at least I'll be ready to react properly when it does happen.

    Edge Canceled Down-B

    I was practicing some tech tonight and accidentally edge canceled down-b. I don't know how I did it and after spending forever trying to replicate it without success, I've finally given up. Unfortunately I wasn't paying attention to specifics like whether I was holding a particular direction or...

    "I'm an earthquake in a can!" - Bowser video thread

    Hi Raiden, sick blue bowser skin! Here are just a couple of my thoughts on the game you posted. I am by no means an expert player, but maybe you'll find them useful. Crouch canceling: You use this to great effect to move through razor leaf and stuff his approaches. I would be careful about...

    "I'm an earthquake in a can!" - Bowser video thread

    What? A new post in the Bowser video thread? Impossible! I'm a scrubby bowser but am trying to get better so I wanted to post about things I really liked about your gameplay and ask some questions. Set vs ChuDat First off, congrats on beating ice climbers. God I hate that matchup. Some things...

    Bowser Fix proposition Thread

    About the suggested KK changes: I really like them. I understand why the KB angle of KK fthrow was changed, because getting guaranteed follow-ups seems a bit un-fair (see what i did there?). Having follow-ups which are dependent on your opponents DI and your ability to read/react to it sounds...

    Secondarys for Bowser

    I've been thinking about this a bit more recently as I think my bowser is maybe good enough to start thinking about secondary options (okay fine, probably not but it's still fun to play other characters). One approach would be to look at particular matchups and counter specific characters. This...

    Bowser general discussion thread.

    Yeah, Koopa Claw is going to be an even better mix-up tool now that it's much harder to spot doge on reaction (and losing the armor is negligible as grounded claw sucked anyway). It's true that some of the KB angles are more horizontal and combo-ing might be a bit harder, but given bowser's...
