Smashing brothers is really fun and the fact that they added custom equipment and moves is amazing- I grind out equipment for hours hoping to get a rare or slightly better stats gently caress yeah. Falco used to be my bird but he feels kinda nerfed, switched to Pit/Dark Pit and he is an amazing birdboy who has everything falco has and more.

I'm glad you enjoy the game this way, but Falco is still cooler.

Finally took the plunge and turned tap jump back on after years of keeping it off, my friends finally got good enough at repeated shield pressure that i need the up-bs out of shield. Still getting too many extra jumps going for uairs or jumping before an attempted-grounded up-b. #ITSAPROCESS

Yea that's why I nevr turned tap jump off so that i can up b out of shield! But it sucks when I'm trying to do a bunch of u-airs with carmine falcone

The one downside of the GCN controller was how far away the B button was from X or Y so you can't jump-cancel B moves out of shield with one motion. Everything else is great, but tap jump is a steep price to pay.

It's not too bad after a while. Im getting less and less jumping up bs and double jumps as the smash days goes by. Makes me learn how to primarily control with the lower half of the control stick, which helps for setting up wave dashes and wavelands. Also feels nice to immediately jump out of shine though even though it's apparently unviable :p

What's a rising nair? A nair immediately after double jumping?

Shield dropping is like the smallest nudge to the left or right it doesn't even feel cool to do just passive annoyance

Also I got wavedash ing down mostly (thanks to the video OP posted) but I can't for the life of me moonwalk after so many attempts lol

Kinda, it's a thing those three characters can do where if you use any aerial during a double jump but keep holding the jump button you'll do this weird floaty thing where you can drift around while performing the attack. Run off, fast fall, jump + rising fair/nair is a great edgeguard option for yoshi, for instance.

Legit question for y'all. I finally have an Amiibo (green w/ red hair Bowser I named K Rool.) What do I do with them exactly to make them monsters since I'm not a great Smash player and would teach it bad habits, going by what various guides on the internet.

I heard that pairing it with a max level CPU makes it good and unlocks stuff for you.

Everything changes, Pit.
Even gods.

You can pair your Amiibo with a lv9 CPU if you want it to just act like a normal CPU player. It's really boring though.

The fun thing about Amiibo is they pick up quirks from your play style, so I think it's a lot more fun to train them yourself even if you're not a great player.
