The long, in depth stuff is great for understanding fundamentals of moves, but matchup specific tips (Lucina and K Rool) and theory crafting about option coverage (tech chasing examples) is definitely what I need to improve my gameplay rn. Also I've never seen someone explain attack cancel bair before so clearly, so thank you for that.

    Tip 5 is a must, hydropump is extremely underutilized, it creates so much more opportunities for greninja, it also catches opponents off guard, for example they try to fast fall to ground and you hit them with a hydropump lifting them up it’s an easy punish if they don’t expect it or are trying to input their next move before they’ve landed. It also gives greninja more range options

    The last segment was really useful for me. In the past, I've always gone for either fsmash, dsmash, or another hydro pump after scooping recoveries because I'd tunnel vision on ending the stock. Thing is, and especially online, a lot of characters can drift ambiguously (*cough* Falcon) and I miss my punishes. You've made me realize that it's okay to go for bair or whatever is guaranteed so I can keep up the edgeguard. Anyway, keep up the good work.!

    You can still do dtilt back air with smash stick guys. Just buffer your turn around and press y and a for a rising back air. Idk if its easier with tilt stick but I use it this way because I use smash stick so I can get dash attack upsmash and dtilt upsmash better.

    • @takumagoto6702
      @takumagoto6702 3 года назад

      Dtilt into attack cancel bair is more consistent because the turnaround is done by the game's engine instead of youself. That's why I use tilt stick, but it is so much easier to land upsmash confirms with smash stick. It's just what people prefer in consistency.

    i love this video I kinda agree with everything here. But i disagree with the first tip. I'm always looking for a jab 1 after hitting with a bair on low %... I just wait for half a second and react to the tech (super easy with dash attack) and if they miss i'll just jab 1 into dash attack upsmash.
    Always very good content Apolotion.
    I've been trying to explain everybody that doing upair and fast falling after getting the last hit is the optimal juggle with greninja and it pretty easy to do with a buffered jump up air.

    • @apolotion
      @apolotion  3 года назад

      Now that I think about it, that's a really good point! I know that you can frame trap at higher percents with Dash attack > Ff Up air > jab lock, and if they tech, just repeat the cycle. The thing is, I think the teching duration / distance is character dependent, meaning that we can't always get the Dash attack. Definitely something for me to look into!

    • @shanksgrandpatz9245
      @shanksgrandpatz9245 3 года назад

      So formally speaking, to do the dragdown, it's DA > short hop > uair > fast fall at the top of SH.
      Personally, I like to have jump on L and R, hit both for the short hop macro, and input uair with the c-stick while spamming fast fall.
      Does that help?

    • @takumagoto6702
      @takumagoto6702 3 года назад

      A bit late, but to add on, it really just comes down to understanding greninja's jump height. Just like practicing dtilt attack cancel bair, start off slow at something like 1/4 speed and make sure you can do it consistently. Raise the speed and rinse/repeat. Just remember that you can't do a rising up-air to do a dragdown, so time your upair a little bit after the shorthop comes out.

    Can you also do a instant bair by buffering a pivot after the down tilt?

    • @takumagoto6702
      @takumagoto6702 3 года назад

      Yes, but attack cancelled bairs come out faster since it ignores the turnaround frame. Attack cancelled bairs also have more horizontal momentum than turnaround bair, so it'll connect even with the tip of dtilt and the opponent DI-ing away (turnaround bairs won't connect in such situations). Attack cancelling is a universal mechanic that helps you with all characters, so it's also just a good habit into doing more often.

SOOO as I am a programmer would you be interested in collaborating with me to make an app for players to have the resources of their character at hand at all time?

      Yeah, actually! I'm a programmer myself, but I've only ever used Python, so I'm not too keen on the whole GUI process. I've made a flashcard program of sorts where I could quiz myself on kill percents and so on, and I've thought of making an online Khan Academy for smash (practice ledge trapping, punishing crossups on shield with reverse vs normal up specials, etc.). I'd definitely be down to collab. My discord / twitter info is in the description if you want to talk there ;)

    • @takumagoto6702
      @takumagoto6702 3 года назад

      Practice. Keep practicing the timing for inputting the upair after the short hop (up air can't be used rising if you want a dragdown). Make sure you wait just a teeny tiny bit after the shorthop before inputting the upair and spam fastfall. It takes time to get dragdowns consistently, so don't expect getting them consistently all of a sudden.

      Usually DA sends straight up if you hit with the innermost hitbox of the move or when you're catching an opponent's landing. It's hard, but you can get a grasp on if the attack will send straight up or not depending on where/how dash attack hits.

    I don’t see a reason to go for atk. cancel bair, when u can do Irar bair for the same result but easier... If u could give a reason then be my guest.
    Irar being Instant Reverse Aerial Rush, basically as u hit the d-tilt u input back on the controller and then input back air. *ITS THAT SIMPLE!* At least instead of doing a move, hoping u input in on time, then doing the tightest frame back air which is still awkward bc u have to do the control input first then jump and do the attack rather than the other way around.

      Make sure you fastfall the first up air so that your low to the ground when the final launcher hit of the first upair connects. Then, follow their launch trajectory/their DI and do a fullhop up air. You can't buffer the up air because that'll do the shorthop macro.
      If you're doing double up air off of a dash attack, make sure you drift backwards on the first upair so that you're directly under your opponent when the launcher hitbox connects instead of being completely in front of them.

      @@KennethS504 Landing with greninja's aerials are a little tricky in terms of timing so I'd recommend practicing the timing for hitting sour nair in training mode. Also I'm pretty sure it's a typo but down throw into up air? Surely you meant up throw into up air. Up air platform extensions are also something you can practice in training mode as well on small battlefield. Again, the timing for it is going to be different and maybe not as natural at first, but with enough practice it'll be second nature. As for double nair into up air, I'm not sure why you'd go for up air after the nair when fair does more damage and is going to be easier to connect. Unless your opponent is awful at landing, I don't see a good benefit in choosing up air when you can get a corner situation with fair's great knockback.
