Smash Bros, Anyone?

Knee of Justiceeee.

Where'd Mike go?

B – Bullet Seed – 4,2,2,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,1…..% (when fatigued 2,1,1,1,1,1,1……%)
OH MY GOD. You know the first time this move was announced on the Dojo, I was like **** that seems quite crappy. Boy o boy was I wrong about that. Bullet Seed is seriously a candidate for most-broken move of the game. I put it in the same league as Peach’s down-smash in Smash Melee. No joke.

First of all let me explain how the move works. You hold B, and it creates a continuous stream of bullet seeds directly above Ivysaur. The stream is infinite as long as you hold-down B. It starts off doing 4%, then 2%, and then eventually every bullet will do 1% damage. But what makes this move seriously broken is the start-up. For whatever reason, right before starting up the Bullet Seed stream, Ivysaur sort of shakes her leaves around. This hit-box is located all around Ivysaur, and what it does is it pops players directly into the stream of fire. From there, the player is literally powerless to the barrage of Bullets. There is no way to escape really.

On average, a properly DI’d Bullet Seed does around 30-40% damage.
I have seen Bullet Seed do a whopping 80% damage once when the opponent landed perfectly in the middle of the stream! Basically at that time your opponent just gets carried to the top of the Bullet Stream, and that’s when they can escape. To top it off, the bigger the target, the harder it is to DI out of it! Not only does this deal a ton of damage, but it FRUSTRATES your opponent tremendously and causes them to lose their rhythm. It’s always been said by designers that when a player loses control of their character, its one of the worst feelings they can have during a game… well that is exactly what this move does.

Seriously at any time that Ivysaur’s collision is overlapping with your opponents, Press and Hold B and watch them squirm as they take at least 40% damage. Good practice to land this move is to know the same way Jigglypuff needs to overlap the opponents to do Rest. Tech Chasing, or Rolling into the Opponent during their laggy moves also helps. As long as they get hit by the instant pop-up from the activation, they are going to take damage.
