I think you typoed and meant to say j.HK instead of j.HP, but yeah thanks a bunch for the tip! Definitely the delayed j.MK makes it much more consistent! :D

Trying out the basic Filia midscreen combo and I'm having a problem. cr.lk > cr.mk > s.hp > j.hp > Air Dash > j.lk > j.hk > cr.lk > s.hp > j.mk (1 hit) > hk hairball > Air Dash j.mp > j.hk > s.lp > s.mp > cr.mk > cr.hp > hk hairball > super Once I get to the j.HK the opponent will ground tech...

Not sure if Toon Link's dair is the same, but the way Sakurai describes Link's new dair meteor is exactly like Young Link's dair. If it's anything like Young Link's then it should be pretty difficult to land. I'm not a Link main though so I don't know if this is a good change or not. If anything...

What signs are there for Zelda not to return? Sakurai said it himself that he wanted more female characters in the game.

Definitely the biggest problem. The way they marketed this was pretty lackluster, setting aside the fact some of the game design looked questionable and the art didn't look very good. Sure the Smash community has thrown so much work and money towards things in the past, but they don't just...

Man went on the stream right when it ended. What version was being played, PC or console?

The Smash Brothers If you're a fan of Smash Bros. or fighting games or competitive gaming in general, you should watch this! It really shows how Smash Bros. is more than just Fox vs. Fox with no items on Final Destination. Note it's a 9 episode series that covers the history of the competitive...

The perspective that the competitive Melee community is just Fox on Fox in Final Destination is a stigma from the old school days. These days the character diversity is significantly bigger, and Fox doesn't just struggle with Marth anymore. You see top-level Fox's struggle with Falco, Sheik...

Yeah I don't really get why they named it Air Dash Online... Sure air dashing is a new mechanic to platform fighters, but it's only a new tool that opens up new options not seen in a Smash game. However, fundamentally the core of the game isn't about air dashing, it's about sumo/king of the hill...

IMO the last episode made a more interesting character than all of the characters so far in season 2 in only one episode. The art style they did for it was really cool too. It reminded me of those asian paintings and Wind Waker clouds/breezes.

I definitely agree. At the moment I feel the characters are too plasticy with that typical AAA realistic game look. It may look good in most AAA games that are trying to go for the modern vibe, but I feel that the game would better fit a more cartoony/serious look to it, more like the concept...

Similar to what Skullgirls did to the traditional fighting game space, Air Dash Online is attempting to do the same thing except in the platform fighting space (which really only has the Super Smash Bros. series in it). Think of it as Super Smash Bros. except it is designed to be competitive...

Yeah I derped. After the restand I was using s.LK instead of s.LP. The combo still works. :P

Tried the advanced section of the chart and after Silent Scope -> Dash the c.LK triggers IPS. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if the chart is wrong.

There is no way SSB4 is going to be more competitive than Melee because Sakurai doesn't even understand what Melee has even become and why it's so great as a competitive game. Judging from the content that's already out, SSB4 is definitely not going to be competitive at all. Melee is really a...
