An in-depth look into Peach's uair string

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

The future looks hopeful, but sadly will not change anything until a later date. Needs to be used in games first

Edit: Just wondering, is there enough time to get a Dair started on Fox from a dthrow?

 

[Kitamerby]

I swear the only way this character can get any gayer is short hop double turnip.

That exists already.

 

[LanceStern]

How hard is this to do, control input wise?

That won't be a true combo, but it could still work depending on what he does.

How hard is this to do, control input wise?

I think it's pretty difficult, but obviously very doable. Just practice it a bit each day and it'll become second nature eventually.

 

[Razmakazi]

i don't find it that difficult at all if you claw. it's way easier than bonewalking for me at least and I don't rly have any tech skill haha.

but it's still a little hard to start the combo from dair to uair on the fox/wolf from zero but I guess you can just continue the dair/dair combo until you know a uair is gonna pop 'em up real good.

 

[Matador]

*Hopes Mario somehow is exempt from this *****

 

[Dark.Pch]

I have a friend comming over today to play. I'm gonna try and pull this off on him. I think I can do it since I am a quick player and have quick fingers/reflexes. He will be my first pry. And yes, matches of my sexy Peach along with this **** combo will be recorded.

And ha ha ha ha haaaaaa @ other character boards coming here to see and question this. Thes boys are scared of a blonde in a pink dress. Or a my case, a brunette in a yellow dress.

 

[LanceStern]

So I can chaing grab wolf and ike pretty nicely...

Can I do this uair string at after that?

 

[C.S. Dinah]

Peach has full of surprises, I love just her lol

 

[Sesshomuronay]

zzzz why does wolf have to get pwnd by almost every random thing

 

[Excel_Zero]

I performed the technique on a tournament today. Lots of times. Thanks a whole lot for this specific info, Hotgarbage. <3

 

[Airgemini]

I'm starting to get the hang of this. Even if you can't perform the full chain, it's still a nice set up for other attacks.

Wait.... There was a tourney at Kaizen?

**** it, I didn't go because I thought I was just gonna be walking around looking at cosplayers and anime stuff... Well, i had to study for a final I have tomorrow, anyway, and can't afford to use too much money on the count of me going to Pound4 and needing some cash on at all times...


Nice to see characters are still discovering stuff these days, it would have sucked if Brawl's metagame would've stagnated half a year ago (at the first aniversary).

 

[C.S. Dinah]

This will be one more thing I'll have to practice to master

 

[LanceStern]

I can get about 2 off and then I just go to a different attack. It's still very nice.

Now I have more reason to abuse short hopped dairs

 

[The Sage of Shadow: Darklink]

how about starting the uair string with a z-dropped turnip for another possibility?

EDIT: If you z-drop a turnip from about a metaknights or so distance above the opponent, you have enough time to get to the ground just before it hits, and can then start the upair string from the minor hitstun
and if they shield the turnip, they might drop shield and you can punish that? or if they don't you can get a free grab anyway
maybe this can be utilized reading a dash grab or dash attack approach

I'm just theory crafting, not testing

 

[Gea]

While it *could* work, many characters are too short. Not a terrible idea though.

 

[Thibault]

............and i now we rocket up the teir list and everyone talks about how broken our upairs are and not metaknights

 

[deepseadiva]

Wait, why is this still being called a "string"?

Isn't one of the few real combos Brawl has?

 

[-Ran]

Looks hot, and it makes me glad that I got into the habit of SDI-ing every attack already. <3

 

[hotgarbage]

So I can chaing grab wolf and ike pretty nicely...

Can I do this uair string at after that?

To be more specific Peach's dthrow gives about a +9 advantage at max, so it won't be a guaranteed combo or anything. It could still work considering they're in great position to start it though, it just depends on what they do.

Awesome to hear it's being used in tourney! And thank YOU for thinking it up

If your opponent is tall enough sure that should work.

EDIT:

......huh, I guess you're right. By definition a "string" is a series of attacks that don't true combo, unlike this. So what do you think would work? Uair chain? Something else that I can't think of? SCREW THE RULES and keep string?¿?

Also nah, Brawl has quite a few combos, especially at low %.... of course those usually involve only 2, sometimes 3 hits.

 

[Meru.]

Uair chain sounds boring. Uair string is better. Another more original name would be even better. Idk, maybe Excelling or Garbaging, anything.

 

[PokemonMasterIRL]

This is basically shuffling from melee.

why does it need a original name.

but you are right.


an original name would be fun.

Puerto Rican Garbage - ****'s Nasty :D

loooool

 

[White-Peach]

Can Can is good too! The dance, and the combo. She CAN combo, in brawl? She CAN!

 

[LanceStern]

Can can sounds very nice.

I stink at doing this. I can't seem to hit the second uair or sequential uairs it seems the computer can dodge while I'm short hopping.

Should I buffer the SH Uair?

You can't buffer it with the c-stick unfortunately. Anyways there are quite a few things you could be doing wrong here, and as such the best thing to do here would be for you to send me a replay so I can look at it a see just what's going on . My Wii FC and Brawl FC are in my profile (you have to add both to send a replay).

 

[Gea]

I find this way easier to do with the control stick. Its just getting into the correct rhythm of tapping up and down.

 

[EdreesesPieces]

I'm not sure how this is gay. Of all of the strategies in Brawl, I'd rank this combo one of the top 3 least gay things to surface in the game. A real combo, lets you build damage, encourages approaching, isn't a chain grab, quicker matches. Definitely less gay than lots of stuff in the game that does this kind of output.

Think about it. If you are ****** people with a combo, and better at that a JUGGLING combo, while other matches being played are Metanight's using a bunch of tornado, IC doing infinites, falcos and ddd's chaingrabbing all over the place, which match would you prefer to see?

 

[Gea]

This actually takes some form of techskill to perform as well.

 

[Razmakazi]

and i can do it rly well 'cept i can't effin' start the stupid thing on wolf/fox. it's hard for me. they fall so fast. I'd hit w/ one uair and then i'd lose the combo. =(

oh and people...

this the Excel Combo or the Zero Combo.

just name it after people. like when I suggested Bone-walking.

or we can call it...EXCELlence

**** yea~

 

[EdreesesPieces]

It can be called Zero's Geass.

 

[Scaphist]

Often when you groundfloat on uneven ground(Yoshi's Story, Lylat etc), and move, you get grounded. When the opponent getting upaired SDI's left/right, you'll be forced to move towards them. If this becomes a common Peach strat, couldn't stages with uneven ground be considered in counterpicking?

Edit: I guess I shouldn't have said counterpicking Peach but just a way to counter the strategy.

 

[Razmakazi]

well yea but it's not like those stages are bad peach stages though.

 

[White-Peach]

And it gets easier frame-wise the more you do. There would be more time to compensate for uneven terrain, but it would still be effective to counterpick and try and stack something against it.

 

[hotgarbage]

Aye, those guys are difficult, but because of that they're the best to practice on. Like on 26% fox you have to hit with the uair within 3 frames of your float. Really if you can do it consistently on these two you can consider the technique mastered.

**** yea~

*spies a Peach pulling this off*

Well gee, looks like that Peach sure is EXCELling!!!

LOOOOOL

 

[Razmakazi]

what exactly is the window of error we have between uairs for those two.

they're haaard. so now ima try to be gay and be like sh dair to double jump dair into The Excellent Combo.

But yeah I pretty much have it down on the rest of the cast but I mess up in-game because I haven't memorized the percents to start trying fh uair n stuff haha but I've at least landed this one time last night playing Vicegrip on wifi haha.

 

[cHeWe]

gonna start to learn this 2night. Does any1 know how hard this is to do in comparision to the IC infinite cg?
