MM: Question & Answer Thread

[Runnerguy2489]

If I was gonna pick between those I would pick Kaztalek's method because I like mashing buttons and learning a B and then A button press sounds a lot easier than a precise swim over to the platform.

Keep in mind, that video is a clip taken directly from my any% SS run, so I probably took some extra time lining it up to make sure that it worked.

Either way, it doesn't matter which method you use; I personally find my method easier, maybe you find yours easier. I'm not going to let another argument start about this, so let's just agree to disagree at this point.

EDIT: @rg that swim is not precise at all; once you get off the ground it's pretty much guaranteed to work as long as you grab the platform at the right spot.

and if i'm right, this guy is going through the 100% route

Yup Yup, the only way to play the game. Thanks for the vids guys. Moving on.

[Kaztalek]

um.. ok but i'm not the one who brought out the competition

by the way if you swim right towards the platform, after pressing b for the last swim, press a before it starts and you'll grab.. the easiest of them all

however for the sake of my tutorial i realize people will be swimming all over the place, so considering you can grab absolutely anywhere on the platform in any point of your swim seems a bit more learn-friendly

i will say that i have used that old method a lot back in the day and it worked a lot, personally i would swim too far left at the start or hold a too long when buffering or other stupid things without paying attention.

try the new way if u want, you might like

If I get the right angle leaving the water I do this, otherwise I fly to the right of the platform and turn into it on the last swim with B->A.. if that makes sense. Seems to help me get it almost every time.

[Kaztalek]

Ya I actually noticed that too after making the tutorial, except it's better to use the left side. Fly to the left of the platform, press B while you flip, then when ready press A and hold right.

I still prefer flying directly there, personally.

Any tips as far as the timing goes for isgslide? after a couple weeks of practice cycles im just not getting any better.

What im doing right now is.

1)isg
2)backwalk a few steps and sheild drop
3)couple more steps, hold forward spam a
4)"fuck"
5)sadly backwalk to my destination

[Kaztalek]

depends on how you get isg

i always get it by doing 2 stabs, so i do that, then shield drop as soon as the bomb is picked up while backwalking, then roll towards it as soon as i'm a good bit behind

after some practice you'll rarely fail it

If you can 1 stab ISG, shield drop backflip when you get ISG then wait like half a second and roll into the bomb while mashing A. Both ways are probably just as good.

[Ucansayperdy]

Yeah I have always done 1 stab for ISG and getting used to the timing for 2 stabs is really weird. I'll try that, thanks.

When I was fooling around with hovering, I've manged to unlock the camera with a Chu, changed the angel without locking the camera, I made link face the screen then backfliped and hovered with the camera unlocked. I did this just as I said but I had little pressure to the joy stick so he could stand in place. Then, I flicked the stick up and back flipped to hover. Is this old?

Yes.
Also, you don't need to bump a stickied thread >_>

Any method to enter Woodfall temple via OoB? and tried it but when fall into the water I start again since the last warp point!

Not that we know of. The loading zone for Woodfall Temple is probably created when you play Sonata of Awakening.

[zeldazoneman]

i know this is a very geeky question but HOW DO YOU CHANGE DIRECTION WHILE HOVERING I FORGET

[playe]

You have to Z target something while hovering. (Preferably a chu but an enemy or person will do.)
