I mean, the character is already free so I don't need to do anything

Funfact: Crouching increases Chibis hurtbox slightly. WHY

pics plz so i can decide if you are complaining about nothing or not.

From the look of this, it doesn't look like his hurtbox is increased, but it just doesn't adjust when he crouches.

Luckily hurtboxs, hitboxes and collision detection is being changed for beta.

Better late than never as they say.

Today I wanna show up most of the discoveries I got from hitting the lab with Chibi today, since I've got some quite interesting ideas that might help Chibi now (and maybe even in Beta!).

But to explain it all, we need to talk about a certain move that Chibi Robo has, that's severely underused for understandable reasons.

His NeutralB.

It's slow, it barely causes hitstun, it does not cancel on landing and overall, it's just not very useful... That's what I thought for quite a while too, but after some experimentation, I think this move is severely underdeveloped, and that it has tons of potential in the hands of a good player.

Let's start with what Skylar said earlier: FDHB is a very strong tool to pressure your opponent and annoy it. Reverse FDHB is extremely good to create pressure in your opponent, and it can even be used as a baiting tool (running up to act like you're going for it but instead go for a BAir and such). It's kinda hard to pull off at first, especially in online, but I think it's something that's very worth the practice.

In case people don't get the idea of how does it work, here it is:



So okay, Aerial Blaster does have some usage, but only having FDHB wouldn't be enough to make the move super good so what else?

Many things.

Let's start with one of the most common ones: Blaster can confirm in FAir and NAir!



This is very important since it makes approaching Blaster a very powerful tool. Confirming into two powerful aerials that could easily lead into even more combos and stuff.

But hey maybe it's not enough for you, maybe if it killed it would be go-



It does! DJ Blaster confirms into UAir, Chibi's most powerful aerial!

Anything else that we should now?



Well, yes. Blaster can confirm into some aerial moves after landing a FAir. It's very DI dependant, since DI-ing up or in makes the setup start earlier, while DI-ing away from the FAir it's more likely to put your opponent in a disadvantage, which is also good. DAir is not true however, but a very powerful mix-up option (NAir and FAir are, I just didn't record it.)

And last but not least, something that for now it might not be very useful but maybe in Beta...



Right now, UpB is not a threatening move, but Beta's version actually kills, so we might have an extremely powerful mix-up here.

Alright, sorry for the lenght of this post, but this was a very fun and interesting experiment to do, and I hope the like, three Chibi mains out there can use it.

20CR is coming guys, I'm telling you

This all looks interesting, wish you would have given this to us sooner.

The same could be said about SSF2 Beta FeelsBadMan I agree.
Finally this character won't be a meme!

If you look very closely you can see that the hurtbox grows very slightly vertically at Chibis head and horizontally at his left side. Its not a big difference (I recommend using your mouse as a marker), but its still something that should not happen at all.



Nice findings, even though we already discussed them earlier


One thing I wanna add (aside from your misspelling of FHDB) is the mechanics behind FHDB that make the tech possible in the first place. I think you all know by now that landing during the startup of Blaster causes an earlier shot, right? Well, as one may have figured, that works for Air Blaster in general, not just FHDB. Im just gonna call this Blaster Cancel because I am oh so creative, but the main thing here is that Blaster Cancel is propably usable in a similar way to the options Drarky already showed. Even if not, youre at least one step closer to acting like youre Falco if thats something.


Now lets just hope that Blaster tech isnt removed in Beta (or just hit with a nerfhammer lol)

creativity, gj man.

Guys, is Ninkendo worthy of attempting to "be the best Chibi-Robo in the world"?
Is he even worthy of Chibi-robo?

I mean he can try as much as he wants, but I dont have faith in him succeeding

Ninkenderz: *Side-B's off the stage*
Ninkenderz: "DON'T MOP TOO FAR!!!"

You know what would be neat
A taunt for Chibi-Robo where Telly Vision throws confetti into the air
Once the confetti lands you can pick it up
but it does nothing
it only looks pretty
That'd be neat.
(Based on one of Telly's animations at the end of each day in Chibi Robo GCN)

Make that his Side Taunt
Up/Default Taunt is the Checkmark
and Down Taunt is the X that should've been in 0.9b but wasn't for some reason
devs pls, delay bebteb another month for this
