Taking a Second Look at Greninja's Up Throw Combo

  • Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
  • For the longest time, I had no idea whether or not Greninja's Up Throw Up Air combo was guaranteed. Thanks to the training mode mod pack made by Jugeeya, I was finally able to see that it is! But on top of that, I've found a way to push this combo to the extreme. I'm talking taking stocks as early as 30 PERCENT. Here's a video on my progress through labbing!

    Dude, Mr. Apply Lotion, straight up want to let you know that I watch a ton of smash content and I really think you might be the best on all of youtube. I found you because Greninja is one of my mains, and this content is killer. I know its a little niche right now, but even if I wasn't a Greninja main I would be watching your stuff (I actually haven't been playing him lately, and this video is still getting me hype). Please keep plugging through man, the effort you put into labbing and these videos really shows, and your presentation is phenomenal. I'm buying tons of Apolotion stonks, I'm hoping this channel blows up soon.

      That means a lot, thanks a ton! The quality of my content is what I'm most proud of by far. I started with this approach because I'm awful at live commentary, but who knew that it would take me as far as it has? I'm always happy to put out these videos, and I'm even happier to read comments like your own. Not planning on stopping any time soon :)

    The reason for the combo counter not counting certain combos is that the game counts a combo as true unless the combo is done when the opponent is out of hitstun on frame 1. However most characters only have frame 2 or 3 options. So unless you are fighting these characters, the combo is true.
    Bayonetta (Bat Within)
    Duck Hunt (Can)
    Luigi (Cyclone is invincible frame 1 airborne)
    Marcina (Up B is invincible frame 1 airborne)
    Snake (Grenades)

    To clarify about IDJ fair after D-tilt. I agree that at 120% or lower, IDJ Fair misses more often than a regular full hop, so it isn't needed. The problem is that the opponent won't always die to it at 120% and will try to avoid it, which greninja struggles at sometimes at killing past 120%. Plus, the buffer systems combined with short hop shortcut makes full fair after d-tilt incredibly inconsistent even with good execution. That's why at 130%+, IDJ fair is needed after D-Tilt, since they most likely will be too high for full hop Fair to connect and it's extremely consistent. Otherwise, the rest of this is pretty good.

      @RyanBedecki 3 года назад

      I only saw 1 or 2 true IDJs here. I think people are misunderstanding what an IDJ is. Should watch Snasen's video on it. You can't do the actual "IDJ" tech without an attack, that's what makes it tech. Most of this was just full hops or plain double jumps, you would see the double jump marker under his feet if he was doing it correctly.

    At the ledge, do you just dash back reverse grab or do you input something else? It looks like you're doing a standing grab but you're almost not moving back at all.
    I might need to pratctice frame perfect reverse grab cause I always seem to move more than you do.

    • @ostersoysters3326

      Press at least 1 frame of backwards, and then press a combination of shield/grab and c stick the forward direction.
      Instant pivot grab.

  • @RyanBedecki
    @RyanBedecki 3 года назад

    Most of your combo clips you have of greninja are not using an IDJ up air. You would see his double jump mark at the ground, and there is no double jump indicator to be found in most of those combos. A true IDJ requires an attack to cancel the first few frames so you can actually jump at the ground, with no attack you're just double jumping very fast. Until at 7:37 you can start to see the signal of a true IDJ but only that first up air on bowser in that combo was an actual IDJ. You may know this already, but just trying to help out.

      Do not fast fall! Fast falling will put you into landing lag from the Up Air, whereas just falling normally will get you the autocancel.
