Home-Run Minigame

[Sonic80]

Ok, so this may sound stupid, but I really need to do better at the Home-Run Minigame. I tried with several characters, I did what it says to do on the smash world wiki, but I can never do all the moves in 10 seconds. The farthest I ever hit it was 87 feet with Samus.

What can I do to get a better high score?

Use the BAT.
If you use A> the sandbag will go hundreds of feet.

LOL this is funny. xD

-Learn to bat-drop (takes a long time).
-Learn how to SHFFL.

And go on youtube and search videos like 'ganon homerun record'.

Don't actually do Gannondorf's record, though, it freezes the game (anything over 4500 or so will).

I'm not good at all that fancy stuff either. The most I've gotten is with Yoshi, over 2,000. Use a short jump with down-A until the last second, then smash it with the bat (if you're lucky, you can pull off four down-A attacks before using the bat). Try to have Yoshi land just barely to the left of the sandbag's center, to push it over a little bit every time.

I think I was able to get over 1,300 with Roy. Up Smash until 4.5 seconds remain, then charge his Sheild Breaker (hold B).

Interesting note: If you stand directly next to and face away from the sandbag with Pichu or Pikachu, and then smash attack (with the bat, of course) toward it, it will fly farther than if you were facing it the whole time.

my highest is 440 or something in the PAL version.. in the US and JP its "feet".. and is usually 2000 ft. or something..

87 feet?! lolz. whaaaaa? I have almost all characters above 1000, though I haven't taken the time to learn the bat drop.

I've always had problems getting over 1,000 with Captain Falcon and Sheik. Although, I don't really worry about Sheik, since I can just use Zelda instead, but C.F....I can't figure out (I've done it before, but I can't remember how).
I know to use Falcon Punch or his knee, but I can't seem to get the sandbag's damage high enough <.<

What I like to do is do some Usmash->Dair, and some fsmashes with the bat, but not the automatic kill one. Then I just Falcon Punch.

I've only gotten it to 1145 doing this.
