How can I setup for Kirby's side B?
In my limited experience, Kirby's side B and forward smash are his biggest kill moves, on the ground. In the air, I've been able to occasionally"fall into" an aerial side B's second hit.

As far as I see, you can't kill anything with Kirby's forward B because it's so hard to pull off. If you did pull it off, then you'd probably miss and get punished for all that stupid lag. Forward smash also is a hard thing. It's a sure strong attack, but it's such a slow attack. Like the hammer, you get pummeled if you miss with Kirby's forward smash.

Some good Kirby KOing attacks are his U-air or B-air with following up into an edge guard of your choice.

A few characters in brawl actually have a good disadvantage against Kirby's forward B when they make certain moves. As an example for Luigi - if Luigi does up B after his attack he falls to the ground; as long as you place yourself where Luigi falls you get a good shot of landing the hit. The main thing to do is sit back and look for your opponents attacks that leave them open while their charging/falling.

Yeah, Kirby's side-b has many sourspots, maybe...200...?

But it is somewhat easy to land to these who use their recovery.

Look at my bad grammar 3 years ago. I'm interested in writing a Kirby FAQ... I've never been as good as playing Kirby as I am now icon_biggrin
