Talk:Footstool Jump

Ghost Jump

Has anyone else experienced that "ghost jump" where you're "footstooled" but nothing happenes to you, and the other player just gets a major boost in hight? I can't find any mention of it on smashwiki, and I'm debating whether or not to start an article on it. 25T16File:HitboxEffect(Flame).png|20px^{It’s a me!} 16:31, 23 October 2011 (EDT)

Simply, footstool jumps can't cancel attacks. So if another character is in an attack animation, footstooling them will give you the jump, but without the knocking them down effect. Omega Tyrant 16:43, 23 October 2011 (EDT)

number of jumps

Why does it say you can footstool 2-6 times? I tested it on every character and I could do up to 4 jumps on everyone. Scr7 16:42, 2 July 2013 (EDT)

"on" everyone or "with" everyone? Characters that fall faster have a harder time getting consecutive footstools because as the jump gets weaker they fall below the footstool point faster than other characters. Toomai Glittershine The Free 17:46, 2 July 2013 (EDT)

Oh, I just used Mario on everyone. Didn't release that falling speed affected it, thanks for verifying this. Scr7 04:24, 3 July 2013 (EDT)

Meteor smash or spike

Does the footstool jump actually function as a meteor smash and is recognised by the game as such? Or is technically a spike and can't be meteor cancelled? Omega Tyrant 10:47, 5 July 2013 (EDT)
