Fun thing about the skewer is that most players have never actually been hit with the skewer in match so they rarely ever know how to react once it’s happened. Sometimes I just like throwing it out there to close range fighters so they know what’ll happen if they get too close.

Make it bypass both shields AND counters on the sweet spot. It's incredibly hard to land and has almost an entire second of startup. Plus it goes right for the balls, how would anyone even block that ?

Yesss I've always loved the armor bypass. Here's a tip for playing against Joker: if you're at the right distance from him, and *especially* if he's at a corner, you can bait out Rebel Guard with a semi-fully charged Plasma Breath, then you can literally just run up to him and get a guaranteed Skewer

Something you don’t know (THIS IS SECRET DON’T TELL ANYONE) You can still down throw skewer average to big characters in certain percent thresholds but it’s been nerfed quite a bit 1 it’s only true on very big characters like Ridley Dk and bowser and only at super specific percents 2 if the opponent air dodges and can you can get punished if one of their moves are fast enough I would only recommend using this on those who don’t see it coming like those who are bad at the game or just not knowing that it still exists

@vincenthowbert08 25 күн бұрын

Ive gotten really good at actually landing skewer lately on people. I like to bait them into using an up-special, (depends on the character, works best with an jumping attack where they fall slowly if they miss, such as little mac, simon, zero suit samus, meta knight, link, etc.). While they use their up special, I air dodge or use the down A, to get back on the ground, and line up the skewer as best as possible while the oponnent is vulnerable. With this concept, I usually land 2-3 skewers in a 3 stock fight. I like to go for it when Im at a high percent with a higher number of stocks left. In a multiplayer fight, I like to wait until someone has grabbed another player, come from behind and skewer them, or just catch someone off guard from behind in the heat of a fight If you want to get good at using skewer, the best way is to just practice over and over until you get the hang of it

I mean it’s got some use in niche situations but it’s still his worst move. Not a single competent player getting hit by this in neutral, and if you manage to hit, they’re not missing the tech. If someone is bad enough to get hit by it outside of it beating whatever button they pressed, you didn’t need it to beat them anyway
