Man why is shield > throw such an effective anti-air? Played against a g&w and a duck hunt and both just spammed their projectiles until I tried to gap close in the air, only for them to shield my attack and throw me off the map again. How are supposed to deal with a shield from the air if it's your only way to get in? :argh:

I'm pretty adamant on maining shulk so I guess I'll just to get better at reading the shield when I am in the air. I've gotten some success with fast fall into grab, which for some reason let's me grab faster than regular falling. Also dash>roll backwards is a surprisingly robust mixup. You can bait out something easily punished fairly frequently.

Man little Mac is pretty frustrating to play against. It's a struggle to get back to the ground, and since 80% of his moves have super armor it's hard to do anything in the air. The best success I've had is to just throw him, and never stop throwing him, because it's pointless to pretend I have the reaction time to play footsie with a good one on the ground.

Using Shulk's variety of Air attacks + fast falling is giving me a lot of fun in mixups. Lots of really weird angles of attack, and some stuff lets you really be pretty sneaky. I think the only one I'm still having trouble finding a practical use for is uair + fast fall, probably since it's so thin a hitbox horizontally. Maybe in Speed form I can get enough horizontal mojo going to use it to edge guard. The big appeal is that you can use nair from like 30 feet up in jump, and then you can have that hit someone on the ground by fast falling in like a fifth of a second. Doesn't work against someone who has a shield ready but you can really get creative with jump and speed and nair+fastfall to punish a move. Also using Jump to go Really Ham for meteor smashes is really fun and I enjoy that a lot.


Also nair can hit people behind you at the beginning of the animation so if I land backwards against a rushdown character I can shffl nair and it gives me pretty good coverage against someone trying to dash in. Fast falling all the time also lets you get back in the air faster since Shulk has super long animations on everything he does. I let the ground cancel half my aerials and often times I can combo nair into a side tilt.



Also it turns out that you can use Smash form to meteor people at like 40%. You get just enough knockback around 35% to seriously throw them off the stage to prep them for it, and if they're a heavier character with a predictable recovery I think it's a strong tool to consider. I've tried it at 0% and you really need something on them before you can do it, but you don't need a lot. Using smash early as a way to just keep dudes like Little Mac off the stage is a interesting application of it.

It's healthy for the game for the beefier dudes to have reliable ways to reward catching a light nimble dude with something easily punishable like most of their moves with easy to chain poo poo like that. I definitely prefer Ganondorfs kicking me 300 feet than getting slowly eaten alive by 5 billion loving lloyd rockets and slightshots argh gently caress offf


Ganondorf is a Grandpa who is all about manly fighting without all the projectile and fancy footwork fluff that makes characters like Little mac and Duck Hunt insufferable. I shan't have you talk down upon him. :colbert:

I just played my first Diddy online...What the ever living gently caress is all I really gotta say.


his throw can turn 0% into 40% after he bairs you 4 times, and starting at like 70% he can throw > uair for a stock. And all of his aerials are incredibly spammable so unless you touch him with a stick he will always win every air fight.


What the gently caress is this bullshit character

It's so easy to shield that characters with long windups on most of their moves just seem to be at a huge disadvantage. I remember watching that Ike enthusiast play on that stream and all he did was run around and be hard to hit and pray to the lord Jesus Christ that someone would use an attack that left them open long enough for him to manage to hit them





e; Rob and ZSS also seem a tad overbearing

He just had a lot of combos ready to go for me. If I got punished, I ate at least 2 attacks. In particular, this guy liked to spam grabs and then toss me up + uair. I just need to get used to grab spammers and figure out a way to deal with them i guess. They're usually the type that likes to just hold down shield from the moment you leave the ground until the moment you land because for the life of me it's almost impossible to approach a standing dude as Shulk with an aerial, you just get grabbed once every 2 seconds and you have to figure out how to get back onto the platform since you can't actually attack them on your way back down since you eat a shield>grab every single fuckin time.



I've gotten some success by baiting out the shield and fast falling into a grab point blank, but even then they can technically grab first, it just catches people by surprise once or twice. After that, There's just no way to beat them to the grab and you're forced to land nowhere near them

I've been practicing my perfect pivots all night, and I was still in that mode when I ran into this guy and got steamrolled. It's frustratingly hard to do. If I was able to map my right stick to moving like my left one I could probably do it way easier, but I checked the control scheme, and I'm not allowed to :(

Ike is pretty bad and the players who have the most success with him just try to abuse grabs/his safest moves like his tilts and bair to rack damage. Almost every smash attack is a hard read against any decent player.

Falcon is good. He's high tier; probably the most-played character at our weeklies. His side-B kills, his up tilt is a spike if you hit someone who's recovering, his aerials are awesome. His up air chains into I think both the knee and the stomp.

his standard B kills too
