Gannons uptilt uses

[Piccolo_Z]

So I kept abusing gannons uptilt on ffa wifi and I was surprised just how effective this attack is.

The range on this thing is disgustingly good. Once people are caught in the draft they panic. They try running away or rolling away which usually ends in your favor. Obviously though this move is escapable.

However I did find some pratical uses for this move.

For example if pika uses downb thunder in front of you, use uptilt to suck him in, if done correctly the uptilt foot comes out too fast for pika to do anything after the downb.

Also, as soon as lucas releases his retardly long upsmash, uptilt and you will suck him in and connect because the lag on that move is too great. That will teach him not to abuse that move.

Also, as a video showed, if they foolishly shield the uptilt it leads to a shield break, which then leads to gannons neutralB fist. Unfortunately this is the only practical use i found with warlock punch.

You can also use it to mess with the momentum on Ike's Side B and throw him off the stage, like with Kirby and Dedede

 

[Dragmire]

it's usually useless but for edgeguarding it's extra range is quite useful

In order to break someone's shield with the U-tilt, you also need to hit their shield with a D-air most of the time.

But yeah, the U-tilt actually has situational usefulness in Brawl. =P

U-tilt to Warlock Punch combo ftw. XD

I use it primarily to specifically edgeguard Ike. His up B doesn't edgesnap on the way up, so if you time and space it correctly so that it goes off at the height of his up B it can connect from outside the reach of the sword's reach due to Ganon's uptilt range. Other than that there doesn't seem to be many practical uses for it. I throw it out sometimes when I think the opponent is going to recover above the stage, which they will sometimes do if they are a character who is susceptible to spikes.

1. Break someone's shield, or watch Jiggly miss a rest.

2. utilt them.

Ganon U-Tilt hits an enemy on the ledge at a moderately ridiculous range.

I only use it when I break a shield, jigglypuff misses a rest, or occasionally to edgeguard. Seems alright for those things.
