I wonder how many characters can perform a B glide. I forget what it is called really but basically with neutral B and precise timing, you can glide a small distance in whatever direction you chose, most commonly forward. I know everyone knows Toon Link can do it with is bow and boomerang, and I did it a while back with Squirtle while charging water gun. It makes me wonder if Ivy can do the same with BS, which also makes be wonder if she can to the same with razor leaf. It just made me think because if BS gets to where it is that easy to DI out of, then maybe the B glide could help counter that. I also wonder if Charizard can to the same with flamethrower and rocksmash. The possibility is there. I have no doubt it could work. But I'm just throwing a thought out there.

Charizard can do it, it helps by not getting as juggled as easily.

The flamethrower Protects his underside since he is moving quickly down and backwards, hitting them.

cool. Now we just have to figure out if Ivy can do it. I can't really think into depth of what could be done with Razor leaf or BS if she can do the glide but I'm sure something good could come of it.

ivysaur can do it with bullet seed, which is situational but can help if you slightly overshot someone you were trying to 'juggle' with it. razor leaf works i think. but neither of them are all that helpful.

If you are talking about the small glide, I just looked it up. It's called the Special Momentum shift and the description is pretty simple.

SMS Arrows
How to Perform: Jump Backwards or Forwards, Slightly tilt Backwards B, instantly Hit Forwards.

Just apply that to BS, Watergun and the other B/side B moves.

It can be an even match-up when you consider the date that that consensus was made in (Summer 2008, maybe earlier).

Yeah, maybe we should scrap this and ask a more dedicated person to do the match ups. we need one, since it is vital to PT's strategy, but this one, we haven't had a new one added for, 3 months?.

the top pts and top players of the other characters rarely comment on a matchup discussion. so what's the point? i'd rather leave it blank than add any more incorrect matchup conclusions. if someone wants to do this they can but don't expect to be right on more than half of the 120 matchups we have to do.

i think magik has the right idea.

Yeah Magik/Steeler that's a really good idea, it's hard for the people that are fairly new to the boards that want to learn who don't know who the right people to listen to are, and from what I hear there's only 5 good PTs so the matchup discussion would be pretty misleading.

I'm not familiar with who's in the backroom so could someone please me know, I'd just like to know who isn't a scrub because it's gets annoying reading loads of misleading info the tacttical and matchup discussions etc.
