Shulk needs someone else to draw the aggro.

Wait a second


LS64126

Just curious, does backslash do more damage or something if it hits from behind like in xenoblade?


Anzackk

It does, noticeably so. Hence the title


Calvin-S

Wait until you find out that his down b has 2 versions


LS64126

That’s like the one fun fact I knew about him l, I think one of them is weaker for some reason


Calvin-S

No, they send into different directions Helpful if you are at the ledge


LS64126

I see (the future)


Equinox-XVI

Backslash goes from meh to an actually threatening kill move if you hit someones back with it


Tanookikid210

Yeah, Bowser got yeeted in Shulk's reveal trailer lol (he was facing away from him lol)


Skully735

It does. I don't know how much more, but it does.


Tanookikid210

Yes, with a crunchy sound effect too XD


NotScottPilgrim

The Kazuya erasure must stop


Skully735

I didn't include Kazuya because I couldn't remember off the top of my head if he did or didn't have auto turnaround. He's not a bad character, he's just complex to play as.


Joelikescandy__

He’s an FGC character, why wouldn’t he have auto turnaround.


Rad_Bones7

I think it’s fair to think he doesn’t since Tekken doesn’t automatically turn you around if you get crossed up. I think it technically counts as a different stance with your back turned


Joelikescandy__

Fair enough but I mean in the confines of smash with how FGC movesets are made none of them could work at their best w/o auto turnaround.


CaliValiOfficial

True but also Ban Kazuya


[deleted]

My brother almost beat me today when he was using Kazuya for the first time. He's difficult to use, but quite strong.


Joelikescandy__

Sounds like a skill issue. There are far easier and more broken characters. Just learn the matchup.


CaliValiOfficial

I’m on the belief FP2 should be banned. And I’m pretty good already but it’s just not fun to play against these polarizing characters But okay “get good” what an amazing rebuttal.


QuaccAttacc420

so you think sephiroth deserves a ban?


TheSpinningKeyGif

not being fun to play against is no reason for a ban at all


Joelikescandy__

What could I say? It’s evident you’ve heard all the arguments for both sides so I don’t see the point in arguing this. It’s not like it’ll really matter what you or I think since it’s up to the TOs on what ends up banned. So I just don’t care enough to provide a better rebuttal. And you literally just said ban Kazuya so why should I reply with anything more thought provoking?

[deleted]

Huh...in that case why does he have auto turnaround?


Rad_Bones7

Probably for ease of input


Shaderu

Technically, so is Min Min, but she doesn’t have it


Karl_Marx_

I like how someone says "I didn't know something" and your automatic reaction is basically questioning why they didn't know.


Tanookikid210

Fighting Game Character Character XD


Ruby_Red15

Might as well forward air and nair to be the FGCs' worst MUs


HELLHOUNDGRIM

But, what's the game plan if the FGC is Ryu/Ken and can space Down B? Fair and Nair are both 1 hit, and that's exactly what it takes to set up the Shoto Down B's.


TrevorBOB9

Buster sword outranges focus pretty cleanly lol At worst Shulk just has to use his brain and grab or just avoid it


vezwyx

Buster is Cloud's sword. This is the monado. Just fyi


TrevorBOB9

Oh yeah, mixed it up since Shulk has buster art I think lol


Simbas_World

Can someone explain


trisckit

The FGC characters auto-face the opponent on the ground, so the extra damage from Backslash is much harder to land on them


Zer_ed

It still works in the air though


HeiHoLetsGo

Most of a Shotos aerial disadvantage is offstage, and I'm not sure that's the best place to use back slash


Ruby_Red15

You used to not be able to grab the ledge with Back Slash in Sm4sh. But I think you can in this game.

I also like how Shulk is one of my bottom 5 matchups as well


Looking-for-Friendz

Me: mains Ryu, Ken and Terry but did not get the joke because I never encounter Shulk in elite.


FluffyPigeon707

Shield button?


Calvin-S

Huh, I never thought of this


Equinox-XVI

Can't hit my back if I'm never facing away from you


OniLewds

Just bait the backslash and counter it


Expensive-Calendar37

Big feet gang is on the case


IronHammerVW

what about kazuya


LucisPerficio

Not Kazuya?


theilluminoodle

Shulk back slash might not beat them but mewtwo disable can


RaaaaaaaNoYokShinRyu

I like how Shulk is 2 letters away from Shehulk

Wonderwing has entered the chat.


Krisuad2002

Kazuya: Am I a joke to you?


Tanookikid210

Get 'em in the air facing away from Shulk No auto turn-around won't save them now!
