Talk:Edge-guard breaking

Authenticity of term

I've just been searching; the only examples of the the term 'guard break' that I've found with relation to Smash Bros are to do with shield stun and shield breaks. I've never seen anyone on Smash Boards use it, or heard it used by any competitive players. While this set of tactics seems viable, the name 'guard break' doesn't seem to be used when referring to it; the term 'counter' seems more common. It seems that the majority of 'guard breaks' are performed in relation to specific edge guarding techniques; there don't appear to be any general moves or tactics. So, it might be a good idea to merge this article with Edge guard or Recovery under a heading like 'Countering edge guarding'. Mako Shark (talk) 12:21, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
