Ledge recovery footstool

[Extremenerd]

This is important for other characters as well, but I wanted to get it here first and get some feedback.

First, if this is unknown, I will explain. When you are on a ledge, you can do an immediate footstool off an opponant. The two ways to press jump off the edge, DI towards your opponant, and press jump again. This is obvious. The second and more usefull way, is to press jump 3 times quickly (2 would probably work, but 3 seems to space it perfectly)

There is two resons this is so important. First, it spaces R.O.B (and others) perfectly for a downsmash. Second, there seems to be invincibility frames during it. If done right, you appear to swing up a little bit, and immediatly appear after the footstool. I have gone through Fox's downsmash doing this. I haven't tried with any other characters, so if anyone has any input, let me know. Otherwise, I will test it this weekend.

Welcome to the first day everyone played Brawl!

 

[Extremenerd]

I'm glad that some douchebag from oregon has the time to scan every thread for a chance to make a smart *** comment. Is that all you have to do out there? Cant even farm in that **** hole you call a state.

 

[maXXXpower]

Whoa! Calm down, nerd.

It's just the internet.

 

[Extremenerd]

It just pisses me off that he comes into every thread and has nothing to say.

thats good find i guess...since i never actually thought of doing that, so it helps. Also, i realized if some1 is recovering to the stage if u Bair them and they get hit by the boosters against the stage and bounce off, they can get hit right below u - so close u can footstool. It looks So Pro.

Cant even farm in that...state.

BUUURNN!!!!!

I'm sorry, but it had to be said. Always good to point out the obvious for people who don't know but I'd put this in general discussion, not a specific forum although this does help ROB some.

Wow, you sir made my day, hope you don't mind being laughed at.

The best you could come up with is that Oregon has no farms?
Farming isn't the focus of our state, but we've got such a beautiful west-coast climate food will grow here without the need for agriculture, but just to finish this:

do you mean like when you're on top of the edge and the opponent is grabbing? or when the opponent is trying to recover?

as for T0MMY...
is there something wrong with you? you've been acting aggressive lately since you reappeared...

 

[JCaesar]

Shhh, don't feed the troll...

When you are on the edge, and your opponent is trying to edgeguard. Tripple-tap(?) and you will footstool off of him to perfect spacing for dair.

And the fact that he had the time to look up all that crap proves the point that he has nothing better to do.

Uhhh... actually, I didn't even post those. Someone was on my account, and it could have been one of about 30 people.
I actually don't frequent Smashboards very often, as I do all my work on AiB.
But while I'm here, I'll add that you can drop a Gyro on their head, which isn't as good as the obvious D-air, but you can surf on them if you do it right ([^^]
