Whispy blink glitch: Difference between revisions

The Whispy blink glitch is a glitch performed in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''.

The player must choose {{SSBM|Marth}} or {{SSBM|Roy}} in any type of [[Vs. match]] or training and choose [[Dream Land (64)]] as the stage. Then, wait until Whispy, the tree in the back of the stage, blinks. On the last 2 frames of Whispy blinking, the player must execute a jab, Forward tilt, up tilt, down tilt, dash attack, or standing grab.

 

Math or Roy will swing their sword in a unusual way. The hitboxes for these attacks (''sans standing grab'') will disappear until the move finishes.

One explanation provided by a user on twitter stated that when he was using a mod that shows textures, when Whispy blinked, he saw blink textures of Marth. He said when Marth blinks and Whispy does the blink at the same time, the game cannot execute the hitbox as the textures is very close to the blink. However, this theory was debunked when a youtuber called AsumSans asked why can't Marth and Roy do it to each other. The user said he would check again. This time, he did not see any texture of Marth/Roy blinking when whispy blinks.
