Re: Rip body parts off oppounet
And here's my take on everything...
Legend: ----- pwns ----- gets you pwned ----- only reccommended for... not noobs.
To rip a part off, it's a good idea to scissor, just like foxie said. Arms can scissor, if you move one up and the other down with your pecs contracted. However, this takes a bit to set up, so it's better to use when you see the opening, but not intentionally.
Another good strategy is to grab a limb, and then kick the grabbed limb. This involves aiming, and leaves you standing in place on one foot, so it's not reccommended for noobs.
In multi, breaking limbs can be even easier. The real trick is to strike at an angle, instead of head on. If you are going to grab, don't pull your arms straight in, twist them a bit. I've played many matches where the actual force of my grab broke their arms off. In 20 frames, I can break your arms off and throw them to the floor, essentially winning my match.
NEVER HEADBUTT because your head takes much more damage in any strike than anything else (except your opponent's head) that you can hit. The only time I ever headbutted was when my opponent's torso was under a lot of strain (almost solid red) and I broke them in half. Oh, wait, there was that time I had no more arms and had to jump headfirst at the opponent. I still lost, but I didn't just give up.
That's about it for this, I have to go to class again XP
