ya know, i looked at that vid for a sec and said "Its another one of these dumb vids". But i skimmed through a few sections to see if I could find anything interesting.

I didnt know peach could platform cancel turnip pulls. That **** looks so dumb.

__

As for a Chaingrabbing guide, im pretty sure there needs to be a new one, cause I swear to god that info about ganon is wrong. I know ganon can jump out at some %s, i just dont know which ones. And i've been ****ing d.aired so much for that **** im kinda scared to chaingrab ganons.

Yeah I'm going to work on a CG guide at some point (saturday? I have two tests friday). It will mostly be for Spacies/Sheik and maybe a few random low tiers. I don't know the specifics for CGing ganon because most of the time I just combo the balls out of him from a dthrow instead of CGing lol. If anyone wants to help me that would be great, I plan on covering the following.

- Updated and hopefully accurate %'s
- Follow ups for individual characters including DI
- Ways to get grabs in (Doc don't have too good range lol)

At least that's my game plan for now. Obviously I'm going to have more detail on the matchups that actually matter.. like Fox/falco/falcon/sheik. Sadly I don't give a **** what you can do to Pikachu or roy. Just **** them.

replace the dair with an uair and you have something thats harder to di out of. on space pets do uthrow-usmash-regrab at ~20 to skip like 10 of those pointless punch-less chaingrabs so many docs love to do and always mess up. if the spacepet di's anywhere but hard away for the throw AND the usmash, the regrab is yours. most people di the usmash towards you because they are afraid of a strong hit. its really easy on space pets who arent familiar with doc.

Yeah, that's nice but are you sure it's guarenteed? To my knowledge they can jump out around that percent if they DI it the right way... or atleast from what I've seen, when it connects it's awesome.

Spikes, you don't seem to like Uthrow->Fair when fox is around 100 and opt for Uair instead..... why?

I hardly go for CG's anymore unless it's at guaranteed %s. Nowadays I just do the respective throw (dthrow or uthrow depending on the opponent's character), full jump dair FF uair, uair shffl and there's the 40% damage right there. Depending on the situation either uair shffl or whatever else you think is needed. Usually I CG the FFers and do the throw to dair combo at %s around 75% (if I remember correctly, sheik along with the FFers), but against the weighted/semi-floaty characters that it's a bit more annoying to CG against (Ganon, DK, etc.) I definitely lean more towards the throw to dair combos at %s around 40% or so. I do the throw to dair combos a lot against Marth and Peach at %s around 10% as well (grabbing them at 10% to begin with).

collegio lol
Oh word you go to WPI? That's sick dude. Uh... what's his weak spot. Well, he tries to gimp a little too often, so it's pretty easy to predict what he's going to try and do by the ledge. He plays smart, and if you're using Doc, he has A LOT of experience against me, so just be ****ing random.

But yeah he goes for gimps alot, so try to exploit that.
