1:33 WHAT THE HELL?!

you mean, to Mew2king*

Korean dj..i just love the way u play sheik! 

[JejuneJesuit]

@JejuneJesuit oh, and 1:33 wasn't a "moonwalk" per se

mew2king wavedashed back (which gave him backwards momentum), started an initial dash forward (which canceled out the momentum from the backwards wavedash, which is why he ended up not going anywhere)

but he held forward out of the initial dash for too long, so it started marth in his running animation. he had to get out of his full-run animation before the fsmash, which is why it looks like he kind of stumbled.

the more you know! =)

[JejuneJesuit]

@JejuneJesuit when you combine the moonwalk motion with another source of momentum, like walking, the two momenta add up in a way, and you end up moving backwards because the momentum from walking gets combined with your moonwalk momentum.

this is a game mechanic; it works with every single character

[JejuneJesuit]

@PrinceShion why should it be nonexistent?

the way moonwalking works:

your character has a certain amount of momentum (forwards or backwards) at any time

by doing the moonwalk motion, half circle back during your initial dash, you can "overcome" the forward movement of your initial dash forward by holding back without starting a dash the other way. with a lot of characters, this normally doesn't do much

I think it's funny how after 11 months i started getting the most replies just recently, lol. Maybe it's the new systems since my comment is the first rated now. Either way, I know, and have known what a sticky/moonwalk is for a while now, I was just confused at how it was executed, to be honest, especially considering the characteristics of Marth's moonwalk, and how it should be nonexistant.

@Thejackalofnights sometimes with a gimper like sheik i change it up and use the jump to gain height on her so i can fair when she goes for the gimp. Whole thing with melee is you gotta switch it up and surprise them sumtimes. Yes i agree saving the jump is the smarter move but sumtimes u can catch your opponent off guard and turn it into a gimp for u. Only been playing for like 8 months played 15th in all of Socal but still learning so im not saying this out of me being a experieced player

[jhskater411]

@PrinceShion pretty sure that was a sticky walk..... u can do it with i think all characters. I know how to do it on command but kinda hard to explain it : D i do it with CF after i start moonwalk i dash in opposite direction and hold diagnal dwn to the way im running makes u run in like super slow-mo.

@nKhid Lol Sheik vs Marth is fucking horrible for Marth.
