Hi !
I've already posted this on another thread but I haven't got any answers so I assumed the thread was kinda dead.
Anyway, reposting here!
I was trying to get the hang of b-reversing my shadow ball when I found a tech that to my knowledge, has not been discovered yet.
Basically, it allows you to get down from the edge of a platform while instantly turning around and throwing a special.
It should works with most of the cast with a projectile neutral-b (I've tried link's bow, mario's fireball...)
By the way, it's impossible to do so just by quicly flicking the stick (without a neutral b), so it offers you some more movement freedom.
It's performed quite easily, you run to the edge of a platform, as soon as mewto starts falling from it you quickly flick the analog stick in the opposite direction and then press b.
Kinda the opposite of b-reversing as while performing those you gotta press b, then flick the analog stick.
I can see a good amount of uses to this tech, especially when getting off of platform pressure can get really tricky in this game.
I think mewto is a character that's gonna benefit the most from this as you can cancel the charge of shadowball by double jumping just before touching the ground, allowing you to have way more mix up than most of the cast.
I can see some uses in neutral like, instant turn-around -> Shadowball, instant turn-around -> shield, Instant turn-around -> dash grab... Kinda whatever you want as mewto gets to his standing position when you cancel the charge of shadowball.
Anyway, here's a video of me performing it in a match (Sorry for the bad quality, and yes I got freaking tagged in a 1v1 item and ****ty map )
Let me know if this isn't anything new, and if it is let's try together to find some good usage of this tech !
