Talk:Grab release glitch
Does this work on Kirby, Peach, ROB, or Zamus? Mr. Anon (talk) 15:40, 17 August 2011 (EDT)
- To my knowledge, no. Omega Tyrant 00:56, 18 August 2011 (EDT)
- The glitch happens because of the programming that says "You enter your regular falling state, but you can't use your up special again". Those four characters don't apply perfectly: Kirby and Peach don't enter their regular falling state, and R.O.B. and ZSS can use their up specials more than once (though R.O.B. needs to have the fuel to do so).

Move Proposal
Since this hasn't had any discussion yet, I'd propose moving this to Grab release, under the "Air release" section. This "glitch" is a side effect of how air releases work, as transitioning to a grounded state is what gives you some Up Bs back. You could maybe add a subsection like "edgeguarding" and place this content there. Thoughts? --Plague von Karma 09:25, June 6, 2021 (EDT)
I don't like the claim in the move suggestion that there is "no evidence" of this being a glitch. For this to not be a glitch, it must be by design and intentional that some characters are affected and others are not, and I find it extremely difficult to believe that "grab at edge and allow escape without pummeling" is a purposeful way to automatically KO some characters but not others. It is far more likely that it is a per-character glitch with enough common elements between characters to appear more universal. Toomai Glittershine The Zesty 09:50, June 6, 2021 (EDT)
