I DON'T FREAKING KNOW! But everytime I think about how many times where I've gotten a Ko off of it, it's hilarious. I've even managed to do it to one of the best players in my state! XD

Is it confusing because GaW has that weird Frame-by-frame thing going on? LMAO

What mindgame? Spamming it because no one realizes that there is no lag for another?
If so, I agree that it works when it really shouldn't

LOL so true. IT's so sexy. and my friends hate it because they fall for it some much. They attempt to punish the first and get toasted by the second. It's hilarious.

I don't know why G&W's fsmash works, either; it just does. I just realized that I always seem to punish people with it, and they just go o_0 "Wow, that totally caught me off guard AGAIN."

People always seem to flip when you spam fsmash with the c-stick, and G&W never puts the match away.

maybe they think that hes going to do his bair, his frame by frame action can fool you, sometimes if you glance at him, you cant tell if hes jumping back or forward. hes insane

Mr G&W's F-Smash is the best one ever. <3

Okay, I'm probably exaggerating somewhat, but it really is one of the better F-Smashes. Great damage, knockback, and disjointed hitbox with good range is nice, but what I really like about the move is that the flame continues to do damage for a long time, so many times people run straight into the flame in my gameplay.

I think I agree the LCD movement also has something to do with why it is so awesome. I mean it's either out completely, or he's charging it. So maybe it comes out faster than other charged Smash attacks. I dunno.=P

It usually works if they don't see you doing it often and they get mind gamed into it.
