The last one was due to the mechanic that the lower parts of everybody's legs are un-grab-able

[@vvlaze]

Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s only their torso that can be grabbed for most characters, since a lot of grab animations have them holding them by the chest and it would look a bit goofy to jump into that pose from a grabbed leg or something.

[@theSato]

@@vvlaze Oh ok, Falco can't grab Marth's legs because that would look goofy, but Marth can grab... the air 5 feet behind Falco and grab him just fine? LMFAO

[@chefdunsparce4254]

@@theSato It's almost like marth grab range is unbalanced Oh wait-

[@SqueezeBakon]

@@theSato he fsmashed and extended his hurtbox to in front of marth as the marth grabbed. Grab came out before fsmash and thus grab won. After getting grabbed, the character enters the grab animation which makes falco retract his extended body. Hurtbox shifting is weird to look at but it's universal in almost every smash game.

@@SoldatDuChristChannel what about it?

[@SSB_Seal]

For the last one, there are certain hurtboxes on every character that are simply ungrabbable. The lowest leg hurtboxes are the most common ones with this trait. It's one of the things that can make a lot of character's dashbacks hard to grab (NOT just Marth, I frequently see a lot of people list only Marth, but he is not unique in this, it is just especially pronounced). Also the laser ended up being cooler since you shot it right between his legs, it was like some Cirque du Soleil shit ROFL

[@MuJoeTheMean]

Is the shield hit box not grabbable? I guess it must not be, but I always thought it was...

[@Phailsku]

[@axis8396]

The shield is it's own separate thing from the character, that's why shield pokes exist and why you can't be meme grabbed from half stage when light shielding. It's also a reason why GaW is so bad because you're forced to light shield everything and the extra shield stun and shield knockback makes pretty much everything unpunishable. Yoshi also has a unique light shield since it doesn't change size and due to weird traction things you basically go half stage or farther on anything that's a tilt or stronger. Probably other notable examples where light shield is useful but I can't think of anything else off the top of my head, I think Luigi is similar to yoshi with the low traction though most characters are going to move pretty far regardless

[@firestarter4247]
