Shadow I-Frames! (Smash Wii U/3DS) 

Wait. A Shulk tech WITHOUT a complicated acronym?

"So a lot of people have been wondering why I picked up Shulk again..."

Ah I get it. Shadow Eye is one of Shulk's arts in Xenoblade that decrease his aggro and as a result decreases the hits inflicted on him. Making this an appropriate name for this tech.

For Glory's shulk use has now increased

Thank-you very much MSC! - Real quick: for anyone thinking you can time it from anything, that's not true (but I wish it was). You need to time it from specific, worked out heights. The key is landing on the last frame the intangibility - which is frame 8 for Shulk's vision. - For anyone looking to test this with other characters - keep in mind it probably also works for super armor, heavy armor, and most other non-hitbox effects. During testing I even got it work with a graphical effect once with one of Pikachu's down B's haha. Also, for some reason it seems it can also happen if an effect ends while dealing hitstun... for unknown reasons. If you're checking out our channel, something you can look forward to is a video on a Smash mechanic I discovered, which applies to almost half the cast! Won't want to miss it! -E

Nice double meaning! It's called Shadow I with the I being invincibility, but it also refers to Shadow Eye, a move from the Xenoblade Chronicles game that reduces Shulk's aggro and increases his ability damage. Pretty well named!

I love how the people who name some of these techniques they first find as Shulk has a Xenoblade reference. First Monado Purge (named after the Monado Art in-game), now Shadow I-Frames (reference to the Battle Art Shulk has, Shadow Eye)

That's Shulk mains for you, always finding new techs for their main. Very admirable to be honest.

This is HUGE for Shulk. His frame data makes him so vulnerable, so any little thing helps. And for those who think this is broken tech, at higher play, the other player can just do a patience mix up and wait for Shulk to act after the Shadow-I frames, then react appropriately . This tech is in no way spam-able, and is react-able and readable by the opponent, with a little patience mixed in. Still, Shulk NEEDS this. I hope this greatly further's Shulk's development as a character.

I swear, Shulk is the one character in this whole game that people will find ways to make him high-top teir

Shit, seeing how ridiculous this was I assumed this was something patched out ages ago The applications behind this have insane potential, glad it was discovered after Nintendo quit applying patches

Whelp. lets look at for glory now *Many Shulks spamming counter*

Could have just named the video "SHULK VIABLE!!! SEE WHY!!!"

Monado Speed, Monado Shield, Monado Buster, Back Slash, Air Slash, Slit Edge, and now, Shadow Eye

What if this works with Jigglypuff's Rest? ._. *Immediately starts testing*

Perhaps you could cover Ryu's Focus Attack in a future video? Like, ways to use it, then ways to counterplay it. Also, I think character-specific things would be cool, like a short video on various things (the most well-known example that I can think of is Luma's respawn time, or Wario Waft) including Shulk's Arts, Robin's items, and others? Just specific mechanics that aren't mentioned or generally covered in detail. As always, love the vids you make. Keep it up MSC!

I just finnished playing alot of shulks on For Glory now i know why

Shulk is one of my top 6 pocket mains (I don't really have an official main as of right now), so i found this video extremely helpful. Thanks!

It isn't a random technique, *THIS* *IS* *THE* *MONADO'S* *POWER*

SABDJCUS wil always be the better and optimal move for Smash

Nice already see the Paradigm & Erico videos but nice to see you do again

The Shulk meta is evolving very fast! Soon Shulk Players are going to make upsets at a major!

Just shows how versatile the meta in this game can be when we're still finding outrageous tech like this 3 years into the game's life.

I saw the original video on this when it came out, glad to see it getting some exposure on a more subbed channel. :D

So this is the monado's power

I remember watching that video a while ago and finally Smash Corner is covering it.

I've implemented this into my gameplay, and it feels so good baiting opponents with it! Makes me proud to be a Shulk main.

Finally. I've been waiting so long

I don't even play Sm4sh anymore but I still watch your content.That just goes to show how good it is

I was literally about to go to sleep. I love you guys

oh man I've been waiting for a video

This was a good vid! Kinda sucks some ppl are just gonna continuously comment on this vid saying he's low tier, but regardless very good

This is SUPER beneficial to Shulk's meta. Highly anticipating the future of this character if this is mastered and I don't even play him.

this will make shulks ledge trapping game much better

Are you gonna make Tier List for Smash 4?Or do you think every single character has same chances to win?AND are you gonna do anymore Top 10s like you did before?I really loved that

All the Shulk players (including me) are like. "Now it's Shulk Time!"

Damn it My Smash Corner, exposing our tech. Now people aren't going to fall for my random counters in neutral

Ohhhh, so that's what I accidently did once with DK using Spinning Kong. I could never replicate it and did not know what happened exactly. Thanks for the knowledge.

Hey Ambrose, great video as always! Why do you think this tech exists? Is this an oversight by Nintendo or their way of giving an edge to characters if and when its discovered? The mechanic seems deliberate and only to really benefit Shulk which begs the question why would they balance him in such a random and indirect way?

lul big diddys. i like the name also holy hell my smash corner we all love u so damn much. The amount of time u spent researching this and getting footage must've been hell. I Feel like ur the kid that does the homework and lets every 1 in the class cheat off em

This is actually very important for the character

Well, now that the entire community knows about it, this technique has effectively died. Hooray for us Shulk mains.

Leave it to Shulk to have more ridiculous and relatively difficult tech

it also works with greninja, I've noticed that some times attacks done to that frog after the counters doesn't activated but also won't get hurt at all for a while

Love it when he says "BIG DIDDIES""

The technique I like to call, "The Little Shulk That Could"

Shulk is now top tier

Shulk might raise up in the tier list now.

The year is 20FF and everyone really feels it at TAS level of perfection

I really love Shulk tech!

Finally an upload :)

Fancy meeting you here Monado boy!

This will put Shulk up a tier

sure shulk will climb up the ranking in the tier list

Zero, it's time to bring out the monando boy! Let's go! Make Shulk great again!

why can't there be such a dedicated people for all the characters, I'm seriously impressed with how people can be so dedicated to 1 character. 😃

Shulk will definitely go up with the discovery of this tech but not by much

Thanks for this MSC :)

love your channel

Hey MSC, I've recently found that sheik has a F-Throw needles optimal footstool combo and I've even found a few follow ups for it that work on almost everyone, and I've done a lot of testing on it. If you could look at this and maybe even make a video on it to shed some light on the discovery of this tech (not my finding, I only discovered the listed follow ups)

*_I'm really feeling it_*

Actually, I've discovered this technique on my own, but never new others on the internet did as well! This can happen with Villagers Pocket neutral B as well! I'm sure there are other characters with this ability as well, so everyone, GET TO EXPERIMENTING!!!!

YO WE SHULKS GETTING SOME WELL DESERVED RECOGNITION??!?!?! HELL YEAH FeelsGoodMan Shulk Bois let's go

Proprs to whoever named it since it a nice reference and not a 6 letter anacronim.

I actually saw that video before this one. Gold trophy.

That moment you realize all the potential protection that could have saved you in so many situations and you start crying yourself to sleep

Yo I wish I could like this video twice, this is so cool!

0:41 Shulk's not really feeling it.

I so need to learn the basics. I have a N2DSXl modded. Love smash bro. :)

finally uploaded.

I've been waiting for MSC to cover some shulk tech.

Excelent video!

some of these setups are hilariously convoluted

Intro:About a week ago Me:ABOUT A WEEK AGOOOO

Give my boy Shulk more love pls Sakurai, or at least give us more tech to find.

So will this only work only on Shulk's counter or are there other not custom moves?

Welp, time to hit the lab again.

Shulk is literally the 20XX of Smash 4

What's that sound? Oh, it's the sound of a new Shulk main being born. (Corrin is my 1st main)

J O Y C O N B O Y Z

I did not get this video in my sub box, RU-vid WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!!! Well at least it showed up in my recommended!

Wow! Maybe Shulk could even be a mid-tier now!

will this work with little mac too or is it just for shulk

LVIFE: Landing Vision I-Frame Extension. One does not simply forget memes, Shulk techs MUST be identified with acronyms. LIFE: Landing I-Frames Extension works too, but the harder to pronounce the better.

Today, I was playing as Link and at some point the smoke that appears when dashing appeared under him when he was in midair and he sort of slid forward? Do you know what happened!

Bien hecho perros!!

My smash corner do a video on extended dash cancelling on the first fox trot with a perfect pivot. Like doing the fox trot then doing the exntended dash dance first part, but that first part turnes into a perfect pivot

ayyy, I saw the original video when it was first put up.

the super secret shulk society is real.

Does it work with other counters? Bayonetta's witch time?

Welp it's 10 pm! Time to sleep. **MySmashCorner uploads a video** Meh, who needs sleep nowadays?

Why is your voice so satisfying to hear

Please do an in depth ZSS guide with Nairo.(Just like how you did a Roy guide with Ryo and a Greninja guide with iStudying)

Time to lab this with Roy

I know this is unrelated to the topic, but I made a discovery during friendlies. So, my buddy was Falcon and I was Marth and he was rapid jabbing my shield. I decided to grab for the fun of it, but what's odd is I grabbed him mid rapid jab. I was wondering if there is anything on this, or if this might be new?

Can you maybe make a video on Dedede? I can't seem to find many.

I guess you could say that shulk is Really Not feeling the attacks. lol I'm terrible ;-;

So THIS is The Monodo's Power!!!😱

This tech is actually called Shadow Eye-Frames i believe, because of the pun

A player used this on me once. That explains why my smash attack went through Shulks body. He really DIDN'T FELL IT!!!
