    Ultimate Yoshi

    I'm not so sure that down-B has super armor. In the clip provided, it looks more like the first hit of down-B connects with Falcon's side-B, Captain Falcon is unaffected, but Yoshi avoids the hit and lands the second hit. Yoshi never gets hit. Also, Egg Roll does not appear to have any...

    What's with the lack of Yoshi Players?

    Yoshi was a lot better before the DLC characters and before the buffs to miscellaneous characters. There was a period of time after the Diddy Kong nerfs and before the 'everyone gets a hoo-hah' buffs that Yoshi could have won major tournaments. Unfortunately, the amount of practice and labbing...

    Do you guys think that Cloud should be nerfed?

    It'd be nice, but it's too late to save the competitive spirit of the roster. It would take too many nerfs to make him a skill based character. High level smash is a gentleman's club that would all be playing Cloud if they didn't realize that they need viewers to make a buck or two playing this...

    Guide Knitting a Yoshi Chart - MU Portal

    Regarding the above MU spread, being completely honest with myself, I would create a new category called impossible and shift each tier downward towards it. Disadvantage becomes impossible, slight disadvantage becomes disadvantage, etc all the way up the list. I think there are reasons that...

    My 1.6 Match Up Spread (please leave you input)

    I would subtract 15 points from Yoshi on each of the tiers and it would look more reasonable. Yoshi doesn't have very many positive MUs, let alone 90% of the cast being at least even. Yoshi thrives on close-to-even MUs, but when character mastery reaches a certain level, Yoshi doesn't have very...

    "Who WAS That?" The Player-Finder Thread

    I just played a really good 3DS Yoshi. I forget the name though because I don't save videos. I will always remember the fight though. That Yoshi knew how to do all the stuff mine does, with B-reverses and retreating aerials. If it weren't for one little kink in your gameplay, we might not have...

    Yoshi's Island: Stage Discussion Thread

    I think Yoshi's best stage fluctuates between FD and BF depending on the MU. In matchups against characters Yoshi can space eggs against well, FD (and similar stages like Duck Hunt) are prefered. Also, Yoshi seems to be better against disjoint heavy characters on flat stages, since they get...

    How do you guys approach in neutral?

    I approach with a mixture of F-air and Egg Lay. I try not to approach too much. Better off letting them approach then bopping them with a retreating F-air or SH retreating Egg Lay. critical edit - I approach by walking towards them. Walking. Watching, Anticipating their reaction. Walking is so...

    Yoshi Dair Testing Not Matching Game Data

    It has to be the TC's technique that is the problem, not the game. Buffered short hop d-air with the landing hitbox does 33%, sometimes 34% depending on half-percent damage. F-smash and D-tilt do half percentages, so they can contribute to 34% D-air, as well as leftover damage from stale moves.

    Viable Secondaries for Yoshi?

    I think Rosalina is a good secondary for Yoshi. Yoshi struggles with 'playing lame' defensively. Rosalina allows you to 'play lame' (tall character with massive shield radius, perfect shield everything, frame 6 grab, etc). I'm not sure about the Rosa v Cloud MU, but I'm pretty sure Rosa can...

    What game are you currently playing?

    I've been playing Metal Gear Onlin3 for a week, but it's given me mixed emotions. The player-base is divided between five platforms, so there aren't very many people available to play with on the dozen or game modes/game mode variants. I'm playing on PS4 and it''s even garbage matchmaking. I...

    Yoshi's imperfect shield

    @Cat8752 - You're not the first to notice, but one of the brave few to speak up. Maybe having someone else discuss the matter gives the topic legitimacy. I'm glad someone has finally done the testing on this. Shield radius is Yoshi's greatest drawback at a high level. You'd assume that a...

    TSM | ZeRo - Let's Talk: Bayonetta Drama

    He probably should have shown the dive kick > dive kick > witch twist > f-air > witch twist > f-air > f-air > dead so people know what he's talking about.

    Guide Knitting a Yoshi Chart - MU Portal

    My problem with eggs is when the opponents just aerial attacks through them and hits Yoshi in endlag. This is especially true with Cloud and other swordsmen. They eat eggs with their 360 degrees of coverage n-airs and f-airs and still have a hitbox to land on Yoshi. In some MU, eggs are only...

    Important Bidou Tech

    One thing the video doesn't mention is that you can still do retreating c-stick aerials using Bidou, but you have to be frame perfect on inputs. The only thing I'm not sure if it can do is c-stick N-airs with momentum, but if it can there's no reason not to use Bidou, as long as you can...
