Talk:Gentleman

At this point, Captain Falcon has 3 articles about nonspecial moves. I'm not saying that this should necessarily be deleted, but what is the notablity of this article. Mr. Anon (talk) 16:16, 6 November 2010 (EDT)

Possible move suggestion

Does Captain Falcon have a page dedicated to notable combos? If so, I suggest we shift most of this to that page. I don't know much about the notability of the combo, but my anecdotal is that I have never heard of it. --Quilt (talk) 09:38, 27 August 2013 (EDT)

No character has an entire page for their notable combos. their combos are mostly explained on their game-specific pages or on their moveset subpages (in more detail for the latter). Scr7 =D 09:40, 27 August 2013 (EDT)

FrameStrip & attack input question

In the FrameStrip I just made (my first time trying to use it :P), I assumed that an attack's animation starts the exact same frame it is input from a button press. Therefore, my framestrip includes startup lag on the same frame the move is "Continuable" from. Is this correct, or is the frame where you can input an attack an "Idle" frame? In addition, I am certain that there is larger than a one-frame window after each jab ends to input the next jab, but I can't figure out how to find out where that window ends. How can I find this out? Sloth (I am NOT Sloth) 03:39, 9 June 2014 (EDT)

Well, in Melee, if an action is interruptible on 42, you can press the button on 41 and the next action begins on 42.

The reason the strip you sourced your strip from only shows one frame of continuation window is because that's a strip of "earliest input", assuming you progress through the move as fast as possible. The corresponding "latest input" strip would contain the full window, which to get you'd need the continuation window character attributes.

Take all this with a grain of salt however, since I don't believe I've looked too closely at optionally-continuable moves in Melee yet. Once I do (which I might soon just to ensure this is correct) I'll have a more concrete answer - and I'll probably also move the frame data here to Captain Falcon (SSBM)/Neutral attack, where it belongs.

Other gentlemans

In sm4sh, I believe there is more than just Falcon who has a gentleman. Rosalina's Luma is just one example. Are these worth mentioning since they are a kill option all the same as Falcon's jab? RobSir zx 18:11, 16 June 2016 (EDT)

I would actually like to bump this. I believe this is an important thing to discuss, and I believe we should incorporate it. --Penro 20:13, 23 December 2017 (EST)

This article is about Falcon's move specifically, not any neutral combo third hit that also has an infinite, and due to notoriety I don't think it's a good idea to try and wedge other things in there. Toomai Glittershine The Incomprehensible 09:18, 24 December 2017 (EST)

True, true. Maybe we should have a little section mentioning some of the other "Gentlemen"? --Penro 12:21, 24 December 2017 (EST)

Might it be worth bringing up Little Mac's Gentleman jab in Ultimate, and how it differs between the hold and the traditional style inputs? 136.33.91.203 17:44, July 25, 2019 (EDT)Guy online
