Awesome. I'm glad the eye beam attack came up last; the player wouldn't have gotten to use that finishing move otherwise.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Wait, you go to the corner and do what now?

Minister of Silly Walks · 03-24-2008, 01:39 PM

Spot dodge.

Chunky Kong12345 · 03-24-2008, 02:06 PM

Which is what button on the GCN controller?

Shield + Down

Takes some timing, though. It tried it when I first faced Tabuu, and managed to dodge the first one, only to be quickly owned by the next two.

I hated that move. So damn cheap.

I gathered sidestep-dodging this would be common sense.

You'd be surprised how many people don't even know how to do it. Case in point: Chunky.

Sidestep-dodging I think is actually harder because of the timing. It takes longer to do the sidestep, and that puts you at a disadvantage for the second and third halos.

I was able to actually do the spot-dodge today in Boss Battles. Once you suffer the hard way and beat the final boss, play Tabuu in Boss Battles for good practice. On easy, the halos only do 40% damage instead of 120%.

I've seen a Video with someone Roll-Dodging the "Circles of Death". A lot. Once at 1:10, again at 2:30, again at around 3:40, and again at around 5:00.

Be Amazed. I sure was.

I liked his commentary, honestly.

Okay, I was able to dodge the bull****cles of doom and death yesterday on Hard Boss Battles. I still died because I came in at 90%. (Screw you, Porky.)
