How to Punish Landings - Smash Ultimate

[@Edgeperor]

Inside the mind of a Lucas main trying to cover a landing: “Who are we fighting?” “Jigglypuff.” “...” “...” “Up-Smash?” “Amazing.”

[@bradsavage9432]

Outstanding Move

[@jyacthepianoman]

lol when that happens I literally just air-dodge

[@johnnyjoestar4473]

As a Lucas main, we also consider PK freeze

[@mzisaperson7925]

Can you PLEASE do a tech chasing video. I need help with this it’s the only smash fundamental thing I’m really bad at instead of only kinda bad.

[@Ephlaght]

Tech chasing is character dependent, but generally you looking to cover 3 out of the 4 tech options, including mis-techs. This make it easier to gather information on what the opponent likes doing, and can put a choke on what they “should” do. You can do hard reads after you do your option coverage a few times if you have a grasp of what the opponent wants to do. Some option coverages you can do (keep in mind this is character dependent) is Down Smash (Bowser’s and Lucina’s are excellent at this), and most Dash Attacks (Ike’s and Wolf’s are some notable ones). Here’s a video on how to Tech Trap. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4W4pXlnZZh_sJo

[@SplashEazy]

Can you name any of your specific problems with teching? For instance when you see an opponent miss a tech, are you already dashing towards them or do you go "oh shit" at the last minute? Do you actively dash towards them and then miss your punish? If nothing else, learn to punish missed techs first then worry about the tech options since generally those are harder to punish. Personally I would at least learn to punish missed techs with a jab lock before worrying about anything else since you can get a smash attack and a stock out of it.

[@mzisaperson7925]

PapaFetch I don’t know how much frame advantage you have for roll away and in or if it’s different for each character. I also need to explore my characters’ options for each option.

[@Endershock1678]

@@mzisaperson7925 What you want to do is read their options and then adapt based on what they do the most, if they get up attack once, they're probably gonna do the same again. A few things are common, for example, people almost always roll away from ledge because they might be DIing a move or wanna get back to center stage. Once you read, learn your punish options. Here's a simple flowchart. This doesn't work flawlessly and definitely is more effective with some character than others, but its a good foundation... Miss Tech: -Roll Away: Dash Attack or Pivot Cancel F Tilt -Roll In: Either Wait in Place and Punish when they roll to you or do a short hop and punish with aerial. If they roll in a lot and you read it, charge a smash attack as it can get you a great punish. Get Up Attack: GG Boy. Jokes aside, run up to them, then just shield and punish, it's hella laggy. -Neutral: Snuff out with a dash attack or tilt. Tech: -Roll Away: Dash Attack -Roll In: Pivot Grab or Stand Still Tilt -Tech In Place: Dash Attack or Landing Aerial

[@hypoKPP]

In a ton of these videos, you've always mentioned mindsets, but I don't recall you making a video on your mindset for smash. I think it'd be a really cool idea! I know that it's different on everyone, but this is something that many people struggle with, and it definitely serves as a huge roadblock in the path to improve greatly, which is a major theme for these videos. It'd be amazing if there were a video on the best mindset to approach things with. In fact, your mindset determines whether you can do these things that you demonstrate in your videos. Personally, this is my own greatest roadblock, so it'd be amazing if you could cover this.

[@iltsib3783]

[@taylorswiftliterallyownsme]

[@hahathatsgreat2]

12:57: when you talk about Bowser's fair to side b frame trap, it usually happens after up throw. Leon does this all the time (or used to, it seems he goes for Nair nowadays?) The conversion is up-throw to double jump fair and if they airdodge it, then drift in with side b and catch them while your both still in the air. I noticed your example clip was not this frame trap, so I thought it might be useful to mention is case anyone sees this. Another KZbinr that does the up throw trap is Phy, be he usually fast falls and shields after fair connects instead of planning for a miss. Anyone let me know if I'm wrong.

[@ahmadkazan7994]

Depends on what character.I main sonic and his best tools are his forward smash,down smash and spikes.

[@pumpkinjack1117]

I like to punish with Ganon Up-smash when I'm out of range of my opponent's aerials and punish in the small window of their landing lag. I do *NOT* recommend this as the most viable option but only when you are just out of reach of whatever vertical move you have. This window does vary depending on the option and your opponent could mix-up their landing before touching the ground, but I find this has some potential but not as a reactionary option.

[@BBSnape]

We can tell that it has taken forever to record and edit a video like this one. I hope it gets the views it deserves
