There's another update on how they plan to design 3.5.

I think they are going to nerf everyone and physics.

 

[Mr. MR]

We just have to wait and see
It probably wont be as bad as you think and if it is
They can always change it back

Hurry PMBR, I just wanna see Roy.
But I also want the game to be well done.

Nobody wants a DN:Forever applied here.

 

[Tragonight]

Roy is the only reason I still play Project M.

 

[Mr. MR]

Roy is the only reason I still play Project M.

Not wavedashing and L-Canceling?

Also Pichu Bros.
I want Pichu Bros.

 

[Mr. MR]

I picked Ness up in PM a week ago
Now after watching this Salty Highlights, I want to learn his ATs and main him possibly

How was Ness keeping Ganondorf trapped in that first clip?

Double jump cancelled down airs. When characters who have a special kind of double jump like Lucas, Ness, Mewtwo, or Yoshi, where it lasts for a longer than average time can do stuff like this. Basically, doing an aerial near the start of the jump causes the jump to be cancelled, your character doesn't go nearly as far, but you reset your characters momentum, which means that if you do an aerial near the ground, you'll fall straight back down rather than jumping and doing an aerial while moving in any direction (up, to either side that you jumped towards).

This means that you can throw out an aerial without moving around, and stay right on top of the enemy, in the case of spikes like Ness's down air, especially fast ones... like Ness's down air, this means you can repeatedly spike the enemy without really giving much opportunity to escape, and without having to chase the enemy far. It's also useful for covering your characters landing, basically just preventing anyone from going near you while coming back down, although that's more of a Yoshi and Mewtwo thing.

At a higher level of play, it's uses get a lot more complex, being a very useful tool for all these characters...

 

[Mr. MR]

Yeah I know that
I need to learn how to do that momentum shift thing right out of down b

Specific example from the video? Or elsewhere? Can't test anything right now, but I'm assuming it's either just double jump tech in some cases, and wave bouncing on others, also iirc, there's always a slight stalling property to magnet, so normal b reversals are possible too. Haven't played PM in a while, and also have avoided Ness and Lucas specifically for a long time now.

 

[Mr. MR]

Lucas mains do the trick all the time
Knocking someone backwards with it while they themselves fly backwards on the ground
