How do YOU jump?

[NicIsNotANinja]

No, this isnt a question from somebody who cant work out how to jump on smash bros =P

I was wondering what you guys use to jump when playing, a button or up on the analogue stick (or d-pad if using mote)

 

[SirKibble]

I use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk configuration, and I jump by pressing down on the d-pad.

Just like I used the Down C button in 64...

And I used Y in Melee, so it just feels most natural right there.

 

[The Dinkoman]

I use the classic controller for brawl.

I use the same button i did in melee.

the X button

 

[Kitamerby]

Y button. Makes it easier to autocancel with certain characters.

 

[Brandon72196]

X- Button, its faster to SHDA(Short hop double arrow) with TL.

 

[frontier]

I use the Y button during the actual match for short hops or to get in the air. When I must recover I use the control stick.

 

[Corigames]

I press up on the control stick. I always have.

No joke.

 

[Crazy_mofo213]

I jump using X and i have tap jump set to OFF so it won't mess me up when i'm trying to land attacks in the air.

 

[rove]

I use the GC controller.
I jump with x.
And ever since melee i've never actually pushed down the x button fully anymore lol.
I always short hop...

 

[awlccl123]

GC controller. Control stick

 

[Noodlehead]

nunchuk.control stick

 

[Digimonkey]

makes ariels easy to just slide my thumb down from Y

 

[iEatPikmin]

I use Y because I'm used to it from Melee. Guess I just picked Y instead of X when I started Melee.

 

[Negi-Kun]

X

[Martial]

[Iron Thorn]

Y when using controller, pressing up when using WiiMote.

 

[Ilex]

I use Y, X feels two awkward and Tap-jump is too slow and inaccurate.

 

[Thand]

Nunchuck, D-Pad down.

 

[TMS]

Tap up on control stick. Tried to get used to X/Y once, and I just couldn't do it.

 

[DTP]

I use the GC Controller and I use the control stick. The only reason I use the control stick is because I didn't know you could use the X and Y buttons to jump back when SSB64 came out and I've been using the control stick ever since.

 

[Krug]

Up on Control Stick, I use the GC controller.

 

[White Pikmin]

up on analog stick

eaiserier to do than c button, i like to keep my finger on the z button, never know when youll need it

Riddle: which configureation am i talking about?

 

[1337-Zero]

Down on the control pad, nunchuck. ( expected post beginning with "well, first I bend my knees....)

 

[Krug]

up on analog stick

eaiserier to do than c button, i like to keep my finger on the z button, never know when youll need it

Riddle: which configureation am i talking about?

Nunchuck Wii-mote is the only configuration with a C button and a single Z button so it must be that.

 

[Sosuke]

I use Up on the control stick.
In every game.
And now I use TL.
Do you even know what i have to go through to SHDA? lol

 

[Luigi player]

Ah such a thread again ^^

I use X, and sometimes up.

 

[Collective of Bears]

I normally use Y.

 

[Mario_ 101]

I always use Y button

 

[Demenise]

...I don't know what you guys are doing, but I usually bend my legs, spring them upwards out of the bent position, and let the momentum help me to jump. It's not that hard, people. >______>



...Or use X.

 

[ginobeeto]

I used to use the control stick, but now I use X so I can short hop

 

[toktomo]

Y \\\ w/ GCN controller! It's very quick 4 me.

 

[Kirbyhat]

I use a gamecube controller, and I always use the analog stick. Its just easier when pulling off air combos, especially when using kirby + meta knight.

 

[AbsoluteZero255]

GCC: X

10char

Sigh...my prediction was accurate. -_-'

 

[DARKALONDITE]

X. All I've been using since Melee. Also, I use the control stick for up-tilt, so I turned off the analog jump in Brawl.

 

[Overload]

the why button
do this many people actually use the x button? or are you guys forgetting the y comes before x on the controller. I always want to say x because it makes sense x then y but noooooo y then x gah

 

[fredymartinez1]

I use the analog stick to jump in an angle..........

 

[Toxik210]

i changed my control settings and i use both L-Trigger and the X button to jump

 

[Christopher Rodriguez]

X.
