    I want to add something about Side B that I don't think was mentioned in the video.
    On the ground, Kart Dash has two speeds that you can choose by either tilting or smashing the stick. If you go the slower speed you can speed it up during the dash, but you can't slow down the faster speed.
    It's an interesting mixup option, but what's really important here is that they have different knockbacks. So if your opponent is out of range for the Up B follow-up, use the slower dash (i.e. in a tech situation) and it won't hit them as far, increading the window for the up B to connect.

    • @Jackaljkljkl
      @Jackaljkljkl 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You mean at higher percentages where SideB sends them too high to connect the hammer?
      Wouldn't a raw SideB spin-out just kill them at those percentages anyway?

  • @WatchMeBeLegacy
    @WatchMeBeLegacy 2 ปีที่แล้ว +34

    Something to add to down throw, to save it from being completely useless, it actually can work decently as a tech chase with side b at higher percents, say ~60-90%. If you side b right after down throw, and they roll in, you can get a free side b to up b kill, if they miss the tech, you can spin out side b and kill, and if they roll away you can drop the up b bomb on them and kill. Pretty fun to use in the scenario, other than that I don't ever use down throw.

    The other content is sick of course but let me just say I think these guides are the gems of the channel. I feel like with this one and the Ganondorf one, getting into the mentality of the character makes it feel so much more impactful
    Saying Ganon puts fear into an opponent makes people feel hype, talking about Bowser Jr. tilting his opponent and controlling both chaos and control makes it sound like playing a character is an art style, very cool touches

  • @christopherjardine1506
    @christopherjardine1506 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video, but a couple things to note: Bowser Jr. can move faster with clown kart dash by holding a direction on stick (with the exception of backwards direction which causes spinout) also dealing a bit more damage which is increased even more the longer Bowser Jr. travels, jump-cancelling at the start of the move allows faster movement and causes a special sound. When using abandon ship, a player can regain the car for further use if hit by a weak attack through button mashing so gimping doesn't always beat out good Bowser Jr. players. With Clown Cannon, you can have 2 cannon balls in use at the same time, there's less lag if used in the air, and the ending lag can be cancelled with ledge grabs.

    You got the guide right, but there is still some things I would like to talk about.
    You can side b and jump out of it even while in the air, it basically grants you a triple jump.
    Canonball’s falling hitbox also doesn’t disappear when hitting a shield, which means if spaced properly a falling canonball can break a full shield.
    You can hit twice with side b: if you flick the stick backward while running on someone, you can get both the running hit and the barrel hit which mean you can get a shield break much sooner and easier and go trough armored moves like plant’s down b and do around 28%.
    Canonball into side b is really hard to time and setup but nonetheless amazing shield break setup. You need to shoot the canonball and run behind it with the kart, if timed properly, you’ll hit the side b during the shield stun of the canonball and you can break a full shield with the tech I mentioned earlier.
    You really underestimated down throw, it’s the most damaging throw and the only one who can put your opponent in a tech chase situation, and is the best throw to use in the corner if forward throw doesn’t kill due to the angle.
    If a mechakoopa is in your hand, you can use roll’s invincibility to attack while rolling if it’s gonna explode soon. This is especially useful at ledge.
    Side b is really great in tech chase situations, especially to cover roll away.
    Forward air has a really great vertical hitbox which means it can be used a lot of times to finish combos even if the only option seems to be a uair and it can anti air surprisingly high. Bair is too slow to ledge trump, use nair instead.
    Fsmash is also really great for it’s speed, especially the recovery of the move. Usually whiffing a fsmash grants you a free punish if the opponent tries to punish you: dash backward and do an another fsmash. Works all the time against mid and lower level players.
    Footstool up b is a really great and usable oos that kills really early.
    Upsmash is his fastest oos.
    While holding down during down b to not grab the ledge and do a hammer slam can be great, there is an another option that's really strong: hold down to not grab ledge, airdodge while drifting in, and buffer hammer slam. if timed properly the slam will occur right before hitting the ground. This is a garentueed punish against hard 2 frame attempts with for exemple Lucas's or Samus's down smashes and can be a free way back to center stage if the opponent doesn't predict it and doesn't have the cabability to punish spaced hammer slam on shield.

    Mechakoopa has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it grabs people when laying on the floor, other times it just walks right through them.. There also doesn't seem to be any consistency with it exploding in your hands, grabbing people, or doing nothing when they hit you while holding it.
    Mechakoopa explosion doesn't stale and actually has a tiny bit of knockback scaling. You can eventually kill people by repeatedly dropping it on people trying to recovoer. It's surprisingly easy against a lot of characters. It's just like Shotput.. :P If you get hit once you just have to hope the Bowser Jr./Brawler players misses you.

    2: when close to the enemy, spam aerials and jab attacks.
    3: send enemy into the air and keep them in the air via up special, neutral air, up air, or down air to finish the juggling
    4: when at high percent, run away and spam cannon balls, mecha Koopa, and Koopa kart in and out.
    5: wash, rinse, dry, repeat.

But when I'm losing, the whole game feels hopeless and I can't seem to get back in the game.

    I feel like Kart Dash is worse after the "buffs". Kart Spin is crazy but the dash itself does too much knockback to combo beyond like 40% when your at full speed, and your basically always going full speed because of jump cancel Kart Dash..
    It makes it a lot harder to land the big combos. It also made the window for Kart Dash to Up B hammer a lot lower, but it's like too low now so you need to be close to the ledge to actually KO with it.
