I foiled Olimar's Final Smash

Metal Mario · 08-15-2009, 03:06 AM

I was playing SSB Brawl just now. I was playing as Samus, fighting Olimar, and we were in the underground version of Mushroomy Kingdom (World 1-2). We were way up on top of the line of bricks that makes up the ceiling. A Smash Ball appeared up there and Olimar got it. Then he activated his Final Smash. Now, I don't know if the height of my position had anything to do with it, but I reflexively performed a triple jump to try and save myself from the monsters that were going to come out and eat me and...............it worked!!! While Olimar was up in his rocket ship, I just Screw Attacked into the air and didn't take one measly point of damage!

Shweet, huh?

Yeah, that happens. If you can get high enough off the screen, the monsters don't do anything to you. ROB is pretty much immune to Oli's FS.

I always try it, but have only managed a few times.

Yeah, when playing as ROB, I tick off Olimar players by chasing their space ship into the sky, and then flying away when it tries to land on me.

And here I thought Olimar's FS was the only one guaranteed to hit...

Metal Man · 08-15-2009, 02:38 PM

Nope. Far from it, considering the number of high jumpers that exist.

Dizzy · 08-15-2009, 02:45 PM

^It's not necessarily how high you can jump, it's how long you can stay in the air. Falco has as much chance as anyone at surving.

and what level you are on, on biggers ones its pretty easy. on temple i think you can stand on the high ledge on the right and avoid it.

Metal Man · 08-15-2009, 04:05 PM

True, not to mention if you're knocked high up but not too high by the ship initially, it'll unintentionally spare you.

I once used Olimar's Final Smash in Mushroomy Kingdom 1-1 and fell through the floor for a TKO when his ship came back.

Well, technically not a TKO--Brawl has this thing where kills are given to the last guy that hit you despite killing yourself intentionally. No doubt a device to circumvent cheating.

^ Wow. You must've been angry.

I did the same thing in 1-2 at the very end were the stage starts over again.
