Attention All Ike Users This Thread Is For You

wait! Wtf!?

Ck! Nuuuu ck! D:

This is not the thread for that. This thread is for Ike stuff.

If you use his Eruption on the very edge of a stage and release it at a very precise time you could hit an opponent like C.Falcon while recovering.

Tell yourself that.

True, but Ike's Eruption can cause much much damage.

Careful about using Eruption at the edge of the stage, it can be punished very badly. Especially by Squirtle and Mario.

Great tips, but I only likes to play for le fun so I tend to ignore such great tips.

Using Erruption vs Mario or Squirtle is all about timing. You need to release the Erruption before they hit you. Overall Mario and Squirtle are easy to hit.

1:02 Kind of hard to hit Mario or Squirtle from that far.
Also, remember squirtle is a fast, small, slippery pokemon. Ike shouldn't be getting too many hits in that match (although if one hit lands...)
Last thing, you can release it as they hit you, since the invisibility frames will protect Ike, and this would probably make timing easier.

Ike hits people because of his good range of sword. He's good at spacing but also predictable. His AAA combo leads to combos.

If Ike's throws gave more damage that would make him a lot more fun to use.

I prefer throws that lead to combos than throws that just damage.

 

[asicsman]

His throws are okay for combos, but I never said change the knockback. Just give more damage. 6% is barely anything, if they were 8% or 9% that would be awesome.

 

[GCommander]

^Yeah, they do need more damage.^

 

[Shadow*91]

Ike's throws are fine. considering the massive power he has elsewhere they had to balance it out somehow. which they did with weak throws and a mediocre recovery.

as for the Eruption against a recovery Squirtle and Mario: Anex is right it is quite hard. you actually have to time it perfectly to use the super armor frames and hit before they grab the ledge and get some super armor frames. it's actually pretty difficult, even for Ike masters.

 

[GCommander]

Well I'm pretty good at timing the Erruption.

 

[asicsman]

Yay for super armor. Ike even gets two attacks with super armor.
