You will miss it if you face me. My dair is more powerful than a regular dair. My fair has range +1 too. =P

not sure if ppl saw it in the video thread, but here's a video of me vs ewbf on the week before G6. it was basically a 0 dollar MM; it was the last set we played before i left. it shows how my ganon's dealing with some falcon stuff, and how i choose to counter falcon approaches, such as wd oos to change falcon's crossover spacing and grab him. if he means to cross over but doesn't because of a short wd oos, then a grab becomes a lot more likely. it wont get broken up by a jab/falcon grab because he thinks he's behind you.

this vid also shows how god awful my fox still is LOL.

when the tourney vids are up, i'll post them in the video thread. as always, all feedback is welcome and appreciated.

This is tangential but I have to know; what is the origin of the term west coast DI? Anyone know?

I am the origin of WC DI. After I won my first tournament when i traveled to WC Canada 3 years ago, I noticed a lot that they would DI either combos wrong or their survival DI was horrible lol. And then from that point on whenever I went to my first US tournament (Pound 3 and so on) everytime I saw a bad DI I made sure to scream WC DI so that everyone can hear it and I still do. lol.

West Coast combos like beasts
East coast is jealous and says WC has bad DI

Ganon combos Ganon, it's not even funny lol. It's probably the only matchup that Ganon has the most ridiculous combos ever... it's so dumb haha.

Ganon dittos ****. Gotta love the unholy combo (dair to wf spike at ledge). I think renth or the cape invented it, but dorsey and I have been doing it for years, lol it's so demoralizing.

i think WC DI was something different...unless i was just being trolled.

you see, whenever jiggs rests you, if you have good "survival" DI, but you're above like 10%, you're gonna fly back into the background with no chance at punishment. with west coast DI, you choose to die on the side, but then you can actually punish the jiggs.

needless to say, the DI to die on the side is far from survival DI. so when this same DI gets used against other moves and characters, it really is a horrible choice of DI.

WC di is just bad di, so when you get rested above like 20% or so you wc di on purpose so you can return and punish.

kage: never heard of that, but I have attempted that before offstage lol

The dair to wf spike combo is actually a true combo at low% if they don't di the stomp.

Nah most people suck at DIing still.. lol. WC DI will last forever.

Edit: I've heard before something like this: "I said WC DI" and then the other said "What? I did a good DI there!" And I'm like ">_>" lol.

Weed DI is the best.

At the last tourney i was blazed as hell, and me and my partner beat the team who won doubles because i lived to over 200% 5 times and another time to over 180%. My partner just whomped on the other guy while i was being "edge guarded"

Big *** tourney too, not a local, the yearly major MW regional.

PRIY GUD.

When he's recovering and his location gives him a lot of options you can just kinda wildly throw out a reverse uair and hope he flies into it. you might be able to do dthrow usmash on pika too.
