Talk:Edge slipping

A bit of an unorthodox technique, but it gets the job done. Trust me. Also, do you know how humiliating it is to have this done to you, falling slowly and clumsily and landing face first? I don't think it can be teched, either. Runer5h (talk) 21:24, 11 December 2008 (UTC)Runer5h

Oh, and it's in 3rd person now. Should have realized that earlier. Runer5h (talk) 03:34, 10 January 2009 (UTC)Runer5h

Legitimacy

This article been around for while but is this a legitimate and notable technique and if so, is this the term use to describe it? While the technique looks legitimate to me (I have seen it work before), I never heard about it outside this article, causing me to question its notability. If this technique is notable, is Defenestration the term to describe it? If not, the article's name needs to be changed to the commonly used term. When I asked Mako Shark about this, she too has never heard the term used before and she linked me to a SWF thread asking if people have heard of Defenestration before. The thread had only three posts and overall seemed to be inconclusive. Omega Tyrant 18:44, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

While it might be inconclusive to say that it is called this, there is also no other commonly accepted name for it, so I think we just stay with what it has been called for two years. Clarinet Hawk (talk · contributions) 18:55, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

So is this technique actually notable? Omega Tyrant 19:00, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

The actual meaning of the word defenestrate is "the action of throwing someone or something out of a window". If it's legit, it needs a more suitable name, since I've searched and no one uses this term. "Guard break" was coined here but it makes sense, "defenestrate" doesn't.

Name/Purpose of page

I think we should turn this page from a description of the technique into a description of the piece of game physics which involves behing hit off platforms while shielding. As such, we should come up with a better name. How about "shield slipping"? Toomai Glittershine The Inconceivable 11:29, 21 May 2011 (EDT)
