@firey_blast 5 лет назад

‘Meteor (Smash)’ is the correct term for a downward-launching attack in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Meteors in Ultimate work the same way as a spike in Melee, but the game itself refers to them as ‘Meteor Smashes’ or ‘Moves with a Meteor effect’. All Meteor moves work properly in Ultimate so the term ‘Spike’ is unnecessary albeit accepted. It is not an incorrect term.

@alexmay7250 5 лет назад

spike is what should be used though because it is what a spike is in melee and it makes communication between the communities easier. even if it is referred to as meteor in game spike is the more widely accepted term

@Dave_Chrome 5 лет назад

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a spike just a move that causes airborne opponents to be strongly launched downwards, and a meteor is like a spike, but even stronger and _straight down?_

@GigaManDX 5 лет назад

@@Dave_Chrome Pretty much but their strength doesn't matter and spikes, unlike meteors could be canceled in melee and brawl. Since meteor canceling is no longer a thing in newer smash games it doesn't really matter which term you use. Although the game itself refers to them as meteor smashes.

Actually, tomohawk is the action of empty hopping into a fastfall, it has nothing to do with a grab, thats a common misconception. Technically it would be called a 'tomohawk grab'. The importance of tomohawk is that it often baits your opponent to shield, and grab just happens to often be the best option due to it countering shield. For example, tomohawking is still a term even in platfighters that dont have grabs such as Rivals of Aether, even though it is significantly less useful in that game. Great video though, Im sure this will help a lot of newcomers.

@bustertimothy2176 5 лет назад

A gimp is when you knock someone away while trying to recover so that they have no recovery options. This is usually by hitting them with an attack after they recover but it also includes things like mario's fludd. A cross up generally refers to jumping over your opponent with a short hop and hitting them with an arial. You pretty much said this but the wording was off. Also, parries happen within 5 (iirc) frames before an attack, not at the same time. A metor smash is pretty much anything that hits straight down with the distinct sound que. Its basically just another name for spike. Although sometimes people use it to mean an attack that sends you bouncing off the floor and ceiling like on luigi's mansion.

15:43 Ultimate does call "spikes" meteor smashes though. If you look at the support spirit Ezlo, you'll see it's attribute is "Toss & Meteor", and the description says it powers up grabs and downward smashes. Though I guess it makes sense to separate the two terms if both are used for different things by the community. I'm still new to the game, so thank you so much for making this video. I'll have an easier time getting into the game now.

@ScileSc 5 лет назад

But down smashes don´t have downward knockback. Its usually down or forward airs.

@Felixr2 5 лет назад

That, and there literally are challenges that require you to defeat a CPU with a meteor smash. And they require you to defeat them with what this video calls a spike.

@LloydTheZephyrian 5 лет назад

To be fair, meteors and spikes have a difference in Melee. There was meteor cancelling on some downward-launching moves, but moves that could not be meteor cancelled were called spikes. I guess it was just an old habit from the Melee players that went on to Sm4sh and SmashU.

@joeffreyobrien924 5 лет назад

@arbitrary5226 5 лет назад

good vid maybe someone has mentioned it im not sure but 10:33 should note a lot of people will call the foxtrot 'dash dancing'

@LastStar007 2 года назад

Foxtrotting and dash dancing are similar but not the same. Foxtrotting is moving quickly across the stage by starting to dash but letting go of the stick before you're fully dashing. It's done to cover ground more quickly than walking while still having access to your walking options (e.g. tilts). Dash dancing is starting to dash, then starting to dash the other way, then back to the first direction, and so on, resulting in no change in position. It's used to make your movement hard to predict and mess with your opponent's spacing, as your opponent doesn't know whether you're going to move quickly towards them or quickly away.

@MorphRed 4 года назад

Spikes are only in Melee that's why

@Balakin2 5 лет назад

Gotta correct you on your spike terminology -A meteor is any move which sends downwards (faster than connecting hits like those from falco fair). -A meteor smash is a move which sends downwards quickly, but the hitstun ends, meaning the enemy has an opportunity to recover (it also has the extra meaty sound effect). -A spike is a move which sends downwards and has very long (infinite?) hitstun, Think of chrom and ike up b. They also have the same meaty sound effect. In conclusion, most things in this game are meteors or meteor smashes, but there are some spikes (in smash 4, the only spikes were from items, no fighters had any, ultimate is different though). Hope this helps.

Now I gotta correct you on that, in Melee: -A meteor smash sends you straight downward and can be meteor cancelled by jumping or using Up B 8 frames after the hitlag ends (like Captain Falcon's Dair and Marth's Dair in the PAL version) A spike sends at an angle beyond the meteor cancel threshold, thus can't be meteor cancelled (Falco's Dair, Marth's Dair in the NTSC version) -In Brawl: The meteor smash angle threshold has been widened to the point that no playable characters has a true spike. Spike is only used as an informal term. -In Smash 64, Smash 4 and Ultimate: Meteor cancelling isn't a thing, therefore every meteor smash is also a spike. The terms are interchangeable.

@@FierceFIYA I wont argue with you on any of your points there except for smash 4 and presumably ultimate (because I don't know or care for any of the other games), because I know that spikes are specific and kill from 0, like arceus' spike, but other moves are only meteors and meteor smashes. I would direct you towards the wiki for confirmation, because unless I'm interpreting it wrong, it corroborates my points. www.ssbwiki.com/spike

@Yipper64 5 лет назад

so just wondering for like general smash knowledge. so against most of my friends im generally decent, and with some warm up and practice with a specific character i can manage to beat lvl 9 CPUs. however every time i go online and use any character that isnt bowser i usually loose. how do i combat this?

@haidynwendlandt2479 5 лет назад

Keep getting better at Bowser for now, then learn other heavy characters, then learn characters similar to those characters, etc.

Something you missed, in airdodging, you CAN still freefall if you just hit the shield button rather then input a direction. I use it a lot more then i do directional dodges.

Freefall is when you can’t do anything like after you up B

@Knyex 5 лет назад

15:40 "calling spikes meteor smashes is incorrect" except for the fact that the game literally calls it meteor smashes Examples of this include: -Spirits such as Ashnard which have the "Toss and Meteor" skill, which increases the power of attacks that launch upwards and meteor smashes -One of the challenges requiring you to kill 3 lvl 9 CPUs with meteor smashes within 3 minutes

@Doritochi 5 лет назад

Theres a difference between a spike and a meteor smash. I believe it has something to do with whether you are able to act out of it or not. Could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure theres two

@Knyex 5 лет назад

@@Doritochi I just looked it up just to make sure I wasn't getting it wrong: All smash games have meteor smashes, but melee is the only one to have spikes due to a bug. So, not only is meteor smashes a correct term, when talking about Ultimate there's no such thing as spikes

@Doritochi 5 лет назад

No idea. A whiff is an attack that misses. A whiff punish is when you punish when they whiff. Rolling past warlock punch and countering with something else etc.
