This tech seems relatively fair given the percentages necessary. Also I think its comparable to some of the smash 4 combos such as megamans foot stool blade and mewtwos footstool disable. I think people will be doing this combo in tournament in no time
@@geekmac9349 oh yeah I know that, link has had those nutty bomb chains for a long time going. I just didn't expect it to go from 50mph to 100mph the way it did 💀
@@ooochoa it wouldn't kill shulk would it? He could survive by activating sheild art when the link is about to kill him. Or he can also activate smash to avoid it right?
Eh, Diddy has an infinite jab lock setup with his banana that can get a KO off of one missed tech. And Isabelle has the “Wobelle.” And of course wobbling in melee is worse then all of these because all it requires is a grab.
woow doing that frame by frame sounds sooo tedious! Props man, awesome video!! Would have loved to see some coverage on down air confirms from that loop.. if that's even possible and true. (after detonation) Super motivated now to play link again :'D
@@kelseycampen4318 only the fair 1 and bair 1 loops have been known for a while, the z-drop footstools are new. T also only does fair 1 loops in Tournament, RaZe does all kinds of crazy shit and was the one who discovered the footstool loop
Transitioning to the second loop is actually really easy. All you have to do is do a near frame perfect back air while fast falling straight down with zero drift all while buffering a turn around with exact control stick placement and then do a near frame perfect short hop z drop with very specific control stick placements for drifts and the need to use non c stick forward air and c stick back air
My first reaction to this was a laugh because of how ridiculously helpless the opponent looks. My second thought is how are we JUST now discovering this.
For @GimR's Lab and/or any Link mains: I'm watching YEET Smash's "Frame Perfect Plays in Smash Ultimate" and there are several clips of people reading Link's launch distance & angle when he uses his remote bomb to recover. My question is: Can you DI the bomb explosion so your opponent has to choose more than one spot to cover with a hitbox? I assume you can DI the explosion, but is the DI enough to make it difficult for your opponent to cover, even if it's only a 50/50? (example: DI-in puts Link toward the left of the stage, and DI out puts Link in center stage, so the opponent has to place their aerial in one of two spots. Also, most characters can't cover both spots with the same hitbox, thus making it a 50/50) If so, is it only a 50/50 at certain damage percents? I realize Link players could be holding down during their bomb explosion after pressing Down-B, and their opponents could be making a play assuming their DI. However, if Link's bomb recovery sends at a consistent--and therefore predictable--angle, then players will find easy ways to edge guard Link. Similar to what happened with King K. Rool's Up-B recovery, players know to drop from ledge, double jump back-air; or putting a hitbox where Wolf's side-B will arrive to stuff it out. Let me know how this works. I love learning more about this game.
Mrdanishbuttercookie did this like a month ago and even farther back in one of his other montage videos! It's cool to see that a tutorial has been made on this combo
A lot of people didn't even try to do footstool combos at the beggining as they said they where useless because they can be teched now. They didn't really think about groundes footstools or using them as a mix up as since they aren't used as much, people don't expect them.
This is why I play villager. Just pocket the bomb and you're safe. Link can't pull out a bomb at all if you pocket it. He has to kill you in other ways.
Okay so I came here to watch the video then saw you were at 92k subs and was like “how isn’t he at 100k subs yet”... I tried to sub to support. Literally remembered I subbed as soon as you made this channel 🤣
I’m only a minute into the video but I wanted to ask this. Does the frame data include the start up, active frames, and frames on block along with recovery? Also does the frame data include block stun as in for example, if roys side smash gets blocked how negative is it? Or is it plus? Because some people don’t really understand how to subtract the block stun frames to the negative frames on block since they are linked together basically
I’ve seen a Japanese player do this when the game first came out, Teitoku Admiral. The difference is he was insanely quick with it and could combo into more options
