Shield poke: Difference between revisions

A '''shield stab''' is the event of finding a damageable portion of a character slightly outside of their [[shield]] and striking it, therefore bypassing their attempt to shield. This is an extremely useful technique, as it can be used to strike an otherwise defended enemy. Also, some characters such as [[Bowser]], [[Mr. Game and Watch]], and [[Donkey Kong]] have small shield sizes relative to their body size, and as such are easier to shield stab than smaller characters like [[Jigglypuff]], [[Kirby]], [[Ness]], and [[Pichu]]. It should be noted that [[Yoshi]], due to his unique shield, cannot be shield stabbed.
