"TECH THAT SOMETIMES WORKS BUT NOT ALWAYS"
& Knuckles
yes
and Luma.
+Ricardo Vazquez & Knuckles
+Just another memer director's cut
battle
60% of the time it works everytime
it works better for fast fallers, I believe
+Ramses Mendoza so basically almost all top tiers
+Bryant Lam stay classy ;)
"That doesn't make sense"
+Dexter Batt
It does make sense thoe.
60% of the time, it works all the time.
Think about it.
It has a 60% chance of working, no matter what circumstances there are.
I like how that Little Mac didn't even try to recover.
It's not like has even has a recovery to begin with lol
When you are a Little Mac main you learn to give up.
little mac can just use counter to recover
why don't more people do that
+Jason Ko because it only works once per match. Then it becomes the easiest punish out of any of Max's options.
*Mac's and yes, counter can be used, however if not used at the right height and properly, it generally kills you more than it saves you.
Now we need a m2k analysis on this to see if this is God tier or not
it's only true if they DI in
Alpharad said that this mostly works on fast fallers
Well it is going to be used on people recovering, so they will most likely D.I. in. And some fast falling characters are common high tiers like Ryu.
Torrent Ryu is a high tier but he isn't a fastfaller
JohnKnight416 Oh, but still he's good for it, it works best on fast fallers I guess because it worked on Ganon.
*Series that sometimes continue but not always*
M2K is gonna win EVO with this tech
he is gonna abuse this tech
he is gonna abuse this tech
he is gonna abuse this tech
he is gonna abuse this tech
he is gonna abuse this tech
The first episode! ALSO THE LAST EPISODE
For Glory today is gonna be full of Clouds trying to do this.
This guy knows what's up
It's gonna be very....
...Cloudy. 👉😉👉
+Silver Man yeaaaaaaaaaah
For glory is like the weather in Britain anyway: always Cloud-y
THAT STUPID BUT BEAUTIFUL
that is :v
xD
landed this on a mac and started training cloud after the out for blood episode, then went to a tournament. over half of the 40 people there were playing cloud and i just stuck to my zss lol
Oh my god. What a spectacle.
How to kill little mac:
1) Footstool
2) That's it
You need to knock him off stage first.
+Awesome-y Guy No.
+Tdragonkid If you footstool Mac on stage, nothing happens. Trust me.
+Tdragonkid Yes.
Footstool that's weird way of saying Cape F.L.U.U.D and Hydro Pump XD
This is...surprisingly useful. Like, it's obviously not guaranteed, but a TON of people are going to hold in when you go for an offstage attack to try and stay near the ledge. Good shit!
I know some people that believe Cloud isn't stupid and I'm like...
Fight against him instead of using him for once, asshats
he's not broken his side b is
He's not broken, but his limits are
I like using cloud but usually as a for fun character. He's not too hard to get around once you figure him out
+BeanBonBashing101 This.
This right here.
You can avoid it by di'ing away from Cloud after he uses Cross Slash and saving your jump.
Cloud is my kind of top tier character.
I don't feel like I need to learn his combos to be good.
Instead, I can rely on his broken hitboxes and kill potential.
Then the people you're playing against must be terrible to be losing to you.
the you play against bad people and youre also pretty bad if you don't use cloud juggling ability
The fact that neither of them understood the joke and/or sarcasm makes me upset.
My bad jaja, it's just that to many kids play smash and have like 5 mains, so someone has to educate them
Many people are saying how easy it is to escape this when in reality it's actually a really good mixup. Generally when people get launched towards the blast zone they are going to DI in, not outwards. If you condition your opponent to always DI in after getting successful cross slashes off stage, then you are most likely able to get this setup.
Nice pokeman mystery dungeon music!
uh
P-O-K-É-M-O-N
fail or meme?
Pocklmin
Not sure if ur joking around but its actually FF7 "J-E-N-O-V-A"
I don't know what makes me more annoyed. The fact that this works, or the fact that people fall for it.
The fact that this tech can be avoided, by di'ing away from Cloud and saving your jump. But this For Glory remember?
I imagine it would work on For Glory, but none of the clips in this video were from For Glory.
GET IT?
*FALL* FOR IT!
+Noobie Sensei But it got nerfed. Can't kill that early.
TezMehbot Not with proper DI. But since you chose the worst possible DI just to avoid getting footstooled, welp, you lose a stock horribly early.
this is a mixup that i really like since nobody will be expecting it and itll be so easy to guard against those with linear recoveries
Huh. Not only that Cloud is the most frequent character I fight in FG, but that this also exists. ... At least I can prepare for attempts of it.
I just remember this video because I’m pretty sure it came out the same day as the announcement of FWOB.
You did not even need to footstool that Little Mac...
I already love this series.
I miss the awkward commentary from the For Glory tech series.
"Have fun and don't be bad at the game."
"Mental gaming in the mind."
"Mental gaming in the game."
"Be good and not bad yeah."
Ah, memories...
This is like my marth off stage strat of side b into Dair. The sickest combo finisher of all time
theres also fully charged focus attack to footstool offstage with ryu that works for me alot but you have to be slightly above them for it to work and u have to cancel out of focus quickly
I have a suggestion. Yoshi's grab release after pummeling to down-B is a really good tech, but can be avoided. If they don't know about it, they will most likely get hit by it. If they know, you could try to read their escape option.
appreciate you not ending the video on the results screen
If you are ganon at the edge of the stage, f tilt then immediately down b to get you to their position then footstool. This works against heavier characters like ganon at 62 no rage
I still can't believe people didn't know this before Alpharad showed it....
The setup can also be used to set up a suicide Climhazzard, which should cover the DI out option. Of course, that should only be used if you have the lead
Rolls right off the tongue
I found a "tech that sometimes works but not always!" :D
Fox's Shine Fair Footstool:
Run up to the other person, shine them off the stage, drag them down with Fair and mash jump for a possible footstool. Fox usually survives even without a footstool! The people who are quick enough to jump after sliding off the stage just need to be shined again, then mash Fair so it buffers or run off and get the footstool. 60% of the time, it works every time!
Just don't hit them to let them live.
that's been around for over a year
The title of this series is 90% of all Smash 4 combos. Though I'm excited for silly shinnanigans like this and possibly cool mix ups Alpha can find.
Thanks for giving us the info about this tech mate.
Makes me happy as a Cloud main.
I'd imagine ROB's "footstool into dair" fits here. Unless that's actually a true combo that I just happened to stumble upon
This should totally be a series tho
i loved this series.
the 1 ep series
Time to not go on for glory for a good month
New Tech That Sometimes Works But Not Always: F-airore's Wind (Zelda): Sweetspot F-air by the edge at mid-percent into risky Farore's Wind finisher. 37% of the time, this works all the time.
This Gonna be a good series. Please don't stop
This is great! I'd love this series to continue, if you like making it.
Well, For Glory is going to be fun for the next few days. Pretty much everyone who's seen this video will try this tech. Yep, fun times inbound.
Another tech is using the top of Clouds side B on your opponent while they are by the ledge and you're recovering then up B.
Thank you, Alpha. You have blessed my already aggressive Cloud with this tech that sometimes works but not all the time.
Over 2 years and no sequel ):
Just to note that this tech will only work on characters with crappy horizontal recoveries. You'll have to use a nair before cross slash or just do this really low in order to catch someone like Robin. Also, never try this on Marth since his recovery is too fast for you to footstool him
"THEY'RE NEARLY ALMOST DEAD BUT NOT QUITE!!!"
I'm done with smash now that this is a thing.
lol its not. just di away
Or don't DI. Literally, just don't DI in. ... And don't play as mac, because if you do, you're dead either way.
Here come the people that think things in an Alpharad video are actually useful. Fam, the title is "Tech that sometimes works but not always"
+Kor-al Refe That thing might be useful, just because a full cross slash offstage is good to kill, so people tend to DI in. Not because it's Alpharad or whatever. You will be surprised at how techs that are labelled "60% of the time it works everytime" are actually working most of the time... as mixups, indeed.
In the words of a great smasher
"Don't get hit"
It can also connect into climhazzard for the 'cloudcide'. It can be true at times.
another tech I used a couple of times is first hit of cross slash and the climbhazard, works sometimes but not always
This seems like a decent edge guard option
hell yeah let's fucking go
This series is gonna shape For glory in a couple months just you watch
Well, using Cloud's Side B off stage is not something wanna you do often, but it gives cool points, so not broken
I'm likin' this series. Makes me think of my own techs, that work only on computers but always on computers.
the name has a real ring to it
This also (SOMETIMES) works with Marth and Lucina's Dancing Blade.
I tried it out earlier pretty nice
Falchion Unity
Nice job, let the Dancing footstool prevail!
+Derek Dao get ready for wombo combos
This made me laugh so hard I don't know why
That little Mac didn't even try to recover 😂😂
New CROSSup with Cloud before EVO.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE YOU MONSTER.
Please try the SABDIJCUS Shulk tech. I would also love to see you do a Greninja tech. Use the first hit of back air, fast fall so you don't hit them with the 2 other hits, then footstool.
"TECH THAT SOMETIMES WORKS BUT NOT ALWAYS"
like my TV
This will be the best show on this Chanel. Hands down.
lmao alpha sounds so happy to show this off
You would think that people have learned how to "dodge" in this game by now
Hope this doesn't die off like "Getting Better"
Silly dash grab should be part of this series.
"Work sometimes, all the time"
thanks alpharad for the tip
my winrate just increased by 5%
because i learnt how to play against it and people kept using it and i get a free 0% win
Undoubtedly, this tech will make Cloud SS tier now.
Can you give a video of these being done on For Glory???
it is a form of disrespect at the end of the day.
it only kills when a character wouldn't have been able to recover anyways.
Alpharad, I'm a Melee player, and you' re the only reason I don't "tr4sh" Sm4sh. You're cool af. Thank you very much for your vids, brah.
>Implying smash 4 has tech outside of ridiculous control schemes
>Using meme arrows on UA-cam.
+TheCrabMiner haha good one did you think of that yourself wow so fuckin funny holy shit I'm laughing my ass off haha where did you learn to be so funny haha I'm laughing out loud right now haha
>Implying it doesn't
And this is only the first episode...
COME ON MAN!NOW A BUTT LOAD OF CLOUDS ARE GONNA BE USING THAT DAMN TECH!The Cloud match up as a Corrin is already hard enough for me man!Dont give them more ideas!
Tech That Sometimes Works But Not Always?
How about Lucas' Nair to nair to nair, to nair to nair to nair to nair to nair to nair to nair to nair to nair to nair to nair to nair to up smash/down smash/bair/basically any move?
Another one episode series? Fantastic
This is the ultimate disrespect. Looks like Ganondorf's got some competition :D
Time to get off playing Smash for a bit
Next episode = Run across entire stage -> Knee
Idea for another TECH THAT SOMETIMES WORKS BUT NOT ALWAYS:
Robin Nair to get them offstage followed by an Elwind Meteor Smash
Tech that sometimes always works
100% of the time it might work.
Now another for glory thing Great, a note for this who don't like this Note(s): it can be counter footstooled so bye bye cloud, just read where the cloud is positioning said self and save your jump with a counter.( or just avoid him)
Please redo the footstool tech and silly grab release. They genuinely made me laugh and, especially true of the grab, actually work.
They'll fit right in with this new format. What was it? Be good and don't be bad? Whatever the outro line was, it was great.
Love it, I want more
I love the series title!
that is like the way I do it but instead of side B to footstool I use standard B to footstool in a low to middle percent
i feel kinda bad for that poor falcon
If you use kirby, jump off a cliff, then mash jump like your life depends on it, you can footstool a lot of bad players. Also, never spit them out unless it's under the stage. (People will usually mash out before you die; it's easier to get the footstool in result. Also, sometimes you have to read their DI.)
I feel like you should cover Robin's ArcThunder to DAir tech if you don't already know about it.
You have a similar tech with Palutena : nair to footstool offstage ;)
Today for glory is going to be cloud's day
UGH I can feel it now. I feel the salt!
Ganondorf has one its side b to down tilt but if they react quickly they can dodge it.
great daddy alphas finally teaching us thigs
This series was tech that only worked once
Best series name in history.
