The Heavenly Scriptures:A Pit Q&A thread!

[Pitariolink]

is there somewhere a guide or something like that where ALL pit's edgueguarding attacks are in?
mayby some video's?

 

[Admiral Pit]

EDIT: Wait, Edgeguarding, right? The one where you are protecting the edge from opponents? If that's it, then well, depending on ur opponent's character, you can gimp certain recoveries (even Meta Knight) with Mirror shield's reverse frames at the Shing sound.
My Pit F-air WoP worked on Ikes, and a few Links, a Bowser, and a Samus, characters with a limited recovery, and slow movement.
You could just do the standard arrow shooting to eat up jumps, and edgehog if neccessary.
Kupo would probably Wingpush them to show that his wings are better than mine <_<

edgueguarding with the mirror shield?? never thought about that (do you have any videos where you can ee it in action?)
wingpushing against Ike, of course, he has a bad recovery.

[Admiral Pit]

Pit's Mirror Shield can "reverse" opponents at the Shing sound, when the opponent hits the Shield at that time when it shines, identical to Mario's cape, it is an ideal choice when you want to "reverse" predictable opponents, when they try to recover, like Link, or Ike, maybe DK. Im sure some of the other Pit players know about it.
I did it before to Ikes and links the most.

Now that im practicing my spacing intensively I was wondering how can i space myself well enough that i can land a safe attack ?(without getting Sheild grabbed, hit etc.) I wing-dash mainly but there are probably other ways.

 

[kown]

you can c stick one direction and go backwards on the joystick, u can also do this with nair just not with the c stick.

and u dont have to use the ctstick it just helps u visualize it better.

 

[Pitariolink]

is powershielding the same as shing shield ?

 

[Admiral Pit]

Powershield gives you instant mobility when you perform it. It's the regular Shield every char has. Pit's Super Frames from the wings doesnt save him from every attack, perferably from those that last long, or have multiple hits, lets say a Pit N-air.

 

[Pitariolink]

Wow, i was just training against a snake and suddenly when snake used it's missile, i performed A-A-A, whit almost no space between us.
The action just went in slow motion !!! and there are NO items !
really weird, i couldn't save the replay cause we were already playing for 6 minutes.
Any explanation?

 

[NxC]

Snake's missile is nearly invincible, but attacks still register as hitting it. If you're talking about the rapid/infinite attack option on AAA, then know that each possible hitbox on the AAA was connecting with the missile, something that doesn't normally happen on an opponent. This would cause some lag in the game, no doubt.

yeah that would explain it, too bad, would be cool if you do some move like that and doge the missile, all in slow motion.... but not for ssbb

 

[Pitariolink]

[kupo15]

Okay ive finally played some offline matches for the first time. And i seriously cant handle 0 button lag, everything somes out too soon. lol. Spot dodges, attacks. Fast falls fail. everything. lol Its gonna take a long time to take out all the habits i have to deal with button lag.

Anyone else ever have problems with 0 button lag?

 

[Pitariolink]

No i don't, ZeRo button lag is better, i'm used to it.
that's why i have problems online xD

haha. the only way to not play worst offline is by not playing online. thiers a huge difference in play from off to online. well maybe u should just practice online and play competitively offline.

 

[kupo15]

I have the opposite prob online which is why I hardly play online. Id rather be used to offline

O my god you deprived child!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! did you know they have chocolate milk now too?

 

[Blad01]

Simple question : Is there a Frame Date Thread for Pit ?

 

[CorruptFate]

Not yet none of use know how/have the stuff/ think we need it enough right now, but if you can get one we would like it very much. Also thx for useing this thread instead of makeing one for your question.

 

[Admiral Pit]

We should get one of those.

So I heard that many US Pit mainers are West coast (like myself). Does this have any truth in it?

Also, completely unrelated, but is it me, or is my sig not showing up?

 

[SuSa]

not showing up

im west coast

_________

What are a few good Pit + x char for teams? I'm swaying towards Lucas/Ness/Ike but not sure ....

well actually i think its the opposite. EAST coast has a crap load of pit players and west coast has like 1 that ive heard of besides u and thats Hey its Yo. ioonno what is tag is in brawl tho. but this is also based off of who is on the smasboards, these are the good pit palyers for the most part.

im from southwest and im the only good pit player. that i know of....

You do not seem to have an entrance command for your image. We can see the [/IMG], which shows that you are attempting to put a picture, but you need the same command before the picture, without the backslash, with the picture sitting between the two commands.

how do you spike characters on the ledge with Pit ?

 

[Ryanarius]

dtilt if they are touching your feet and aren't invisible will spike. Beyond that bair is good for stage spikes.

 

[Exia 00]

How do i beat IC's. i keep getting grabbed >_> Plz be very spacific.

thank you.

 

[arm]

The guy above me asked a question, so dont skip him.

Anyways, I was wondering what effect tilting the mirror has on, well, anything.

 

[Exia 00]

Wow xD i just noticed the lack of pit players =/

Work on spaceing, play in the air, (dont get grabbed) I hate that tip, and check the match up thread we have gone over them already.

 

[darkspatan117]

hum fate do you think Pit arrow is the best projectile in the game or some are better than his arrow

 

[arm]

Silly, Pit is not a projectile. Unless you throw him.

However, if you want my honest opinion, he has the best projectile in the game. Its fast, spammable, controlable, and I can loop it if I miss the first time.

 

[CorruptFate]

I think they are for sure one of the best, I don't know about "the" best. I have thought about it before, and Zelda's got a mean one but can be easy to avoid, Falco's in nice, so is pikman can be good at times, Yoshi are nice, Snakes is great but i can't help but think half of why people say that is because of how good he is in other areas. I think it all depends:
1.If charged it can knock snake out of his upB, and even uncharged its still 5% good damage considering most other projectils in the game.
2. You can contol them, there are a few projectiles that can trully be controled, ex. Zelda, Yoshi, Snake. But all of them require you to be standing in one place, and don't have nearly the level of control the an arrow has.
3. It doesn't have a set knockback (a full charged arrow kills at 400% woot!), so in higher damages you can really cause some pain. Now there are alot that also fit this but mixed with the control of an arrow and how you can arrow loop to cause them to come out of nowhere makes for a great attack/combo abilty.
4. They are way fast. and can be charge to delay the speed making it harder to predict and power shield.

~I think the top 3 are, Snake's gernades, Pit's arrows, and Falco's lazer. Not in any order all good in different times. Snake's gernades have the kill at higher %s. Falco's lazer is the fastest, Pits arrows i think are the best at most times, because they can be controled and good knockback for projectiles. And all 3 are spamable.

 

[arm]

Well, I wouldnt classify grenades as "projectile". It is more "thrown item" than projectile. But I get what you mean, Fate.

 

[Saki Zatoichi]

What are some counterpick stages that Pit has an advantage on?
