Metagame Minute Ep3 Edge Slip Mechanics

[ilovebakingatdbz]

The blog is not longer there.....

[TimeSpaceMage]

Now I feel a little better about failing at ground teching in this game.

[infiniteV115]

ZSS can tech from the lower battlefield platforms...

[soulforged789]

DUDE I think Wario could come up with some siiiick stuff too!!

[NLTLjp]

phew, wario can get out of an edge slip and falco cant >:D

[PEEFSMASH]

Couldnt you just tech the damn ground?

[GodismyRock89]

@PEEFSMASH If you watch the video you'll see that you cannot tech the ground with most characters including all of top tier

[Krystedez]

Don't think I got to comment on this video, but wanted to say great job GIMR, was wonderful. Great choice of music too, just got the chance to listen to it unmuted XD

GJ!

[maharbareversespell1]

do they go into that fall animation if pit does WOI below and it pushes them off or do wind boxes not work for this?

[theneltrajan]

this series is epic. i love it so much. love the great work GimR and co.

[TheAmazingSnapple]

as a melee player i watch these quite often just to see how brawls metagame is advancing, keep it up guys.

[AZaxe]

Awesome music

[manoloegghead]

How come at the beginning Snake cancels edge slip animation on frame 8 but then it says his edge slip animation lasts 27 frames and cant cancel it?

[manoloegghead]

@manoloegghead oh ok, forget it, on the 8th frame you can ONLY control horizontal movement, not cancel animation.

[SSBBsiggi]

"... because snake is a faster faller THAN (not then) marth" ;D

[cha0sleader]

I've been forcing this whole "edge slip" thing long before it had a name. Old news, but helpful I guess.

[maxisku2]

These are cool, keep them up. I don't even play Brawl but little tricks like this give me hope that there is still cool stuff to be discovered

[SuPeRbOoMfAn]

Disliking because of dubstep.

[Strongbad338guy]

0:33 Please stop calling controlling horizontal momentum "DI". We know what you mean, but it perpetuates the incorrect usage of the term and newer players might confuse it with Directional Influence.

[GodismyRock89]

@Strongbad338guy I forgot what it was called, it's drifting, right?

[Strongbad338guy]

@GodismyRock89 There's no specific term for it, however, "drifting" is used often.

[jdvillao]

@GodismyRock89 GIMR u are just too good player with lots of characters like Diddy, MK,... Why don't u use them in tournaments?

[IYMsmasher]

this game is getting more pathetic over the time, seriously, ther are discovering locks, locks and more way to do infinites.

i want leave this clear, i am not a brawl hater, i play it and enjoy it, but as a competitive game is a lame smash. this game is full of locks than dont need so much skils

is true, in melee are locks too, but, are 100 times more dificult to do.

i engoyded the video, was well made. but is a shame only see locks and unfair things :/

[ElectroLoungE1]

AWESONE DUBSTEP!

[linkoninja]

How does this make the game any more fair? (serious question) I figure it would be annoying to keep getting hit by lasers and banannas :(

[mustardpi314]

depth in brawl? holy shit

[TheSecretOasis]

I think sparta kick would be a more appropriate name.



[LordofWolves]

Is this true in melee too?

[Rubyiris]

Something that isn't a cesspool of garbage in Brawl?

Neat. Too bad Brawl i still terrible. c:

[daKIDgamer]

watch?v=y_wkWU8dIYw#t=03m13s

you should figure out the numbers for this stage too.

[Kaffei4Lunch]

I love these videos. Great job, GimR

[tranquilizer17]

great vid, I always wanted some clarification, especially on the characters. I often upsmashed with DK off the edge and characters I was sure would fall and get fsmashed hit me with moves or got away. thanks.

[beepMisterEricbeep]

im glad to finally have a deeper understanding of this. thanks xD

[AdmiralZeta]

So much for this being a minute...

[GodismyRock89]

@AdmiralZeta yeah, I felt that in order to truly understand this I should explain everything about it

[AdmiralZeta]

@GodismyRock89

i see, it was very informative lol

[LaSwagga]

Dumbstep needs to die.

[Anthon1996]

1:54

Luigi: SPARTA!! SPARTA!! SPARTA!! MOTHERFUCKING SPARTA!!!

[xXSpellcasterXx]

Hm...this has alot of potential...

[Xyless]

Ivysaur's uair from below the platform is a great option for the edge slip, which I've been using forever. Once they fall, either fsmash or bullet seed if you're feeling lucky.

[dynomite31]

3:48 shoulda led up to the AT shown in the first Metagame Minute.

[LokinarioVM]

Interesting as always, GimR.

[BigD666]

I wonder how many times it took to get the 9 hammer.

[burrhe]

@BigD666 he told me it took him 2 times...hax

[GodismyRock89]

@BigD666 It was my first or second try

[Zebrazamaz]

@BigD666 When you really think about it, he probrably took clips of him doing his regular shit.

[knockout08]

@BigD666 GIMR had a video where he "timed the 9" in melee.

[UberStraight]

Nice :)

[Ubermunki3]

for this being brawl, coming from a melee player...these traps can look cool with the right kind of finisher
