The angle's name is derived from the fact that it has a chance of tripping up to the point where the target starts tumbling from the knockback. As Masahiro Sakurai is sort of hated for making tripping existent in Brawl, it is hence named after him.

someone got really pissy at me because I waited for them to get up from the ledge once. Also I played metaknight because metaknight is really fuckin' rad, not because he's op or anything.

someone got really mad at me because I hit them when they were off the screen, also I grabbed meta-knight out of his tornado which apparently "isn't fair."

I've never had anyone get mad at me about smash because we treat the game as it is meant to be treated: as a fun, silly romp

I've only had people get actually mad about Smash on the internet. Well and sometimes there is "that guy" at some social event, but in general it's a pretty chill time.

Love that the phrase sex kick is used by pro smash players. Just imagining them saying it makes me chuckle.

and it's just referring to the neutral air attack

seems like all of those terms are pretty much unfunny in-jokes that nerds far removed from the source adopted to sound like their idols

I got to see a major retail chain sell a full line of video game porn products. Worth it.

At least I'm not the goon who bought the plates.

It's the neutral air-A and i think it came from Luigi in Melee because his animations are goofy, his the pose is a classical "relaxed" one known as Contrapposto. Also the pose that Fox/Falco strike when you do it is pretty cool looking, and could be described as "sexy" back before I learned that furies were a thing.
