Talk:Footstool Jump

Does footstooling restore midair jumps?
If it does, that could be useful information. Tigt (talk) 00:58, 15 January 2019 (EST)

Ghost Jump
Has anyone else experienced that "ghost jump" where you're "footstooled" but nothing happenes to you, and the other player just gets a major boost in hight? I can't find any mention of it on smashwiki, and I'm debating whether or not to start an article on it. ''' 25 T  16 File:HitboxEffect(Flame).png|20pxIt’s a me! ''' 16:31, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Simply, footstool jumps can't cancel attacks. So if another character is in an attack animation, footstooling them will give you the jump, but without the knocking them down effect. Omega   Tyrant  [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 16:43, 23 October 2011 (EDT)

number of jumps
Why does it say you can footstool 2-6 times? I tested it on every character and I could do up to 4 jumps on everyone. Scr7 16:42, 2 July 2013 (EDT)
 * "on" everyone or "with" everyone? Characters that fall faster have a harder time getting consecutive footstools because as the jump gets weaker they fall below the footstool point faster than other characters.

 * Oh, I just used Mario on everyone. Didn't release that falling speed affected it, thanks for verifying this. Scr7Wolfsig.png 04:24, 3 July 2013 (EDT)

Meteor smash or spike
Does the footstool jump actually function as a meteor smash and is recognised by the game as such? Or is technically a spike and can't be meteor cancelled? Omega  Tyrant   10:47, 5 July 2013 (EDT)
 * While it's said to be a meteor smash on the website, I believe that in the technical sense it is neither a meteor nor a spike, since it puts you into a unique state instead of dealing proper knockback, and I don't think the per-character meteor cancel delay applies to it (could be wrong).

 * I agree with Toomai. It doesn't exactly produce knockback, it just makes the enemy fall down in a state that seems to be created just for it. Scr7Wolfsig.png 17:52, 5 July 2013 (EDT)

Infinite in SSB4 with ZSS?
Just wanted to mention that someone has posted a video online of a Footstool Infinite on Robin. I was wondering if it should be added to the article like the ROB Infinite that is already on the page. --204.106.251.214 17:34, 15 September 2014 (EDT)
 * I have heard that this is a bug that occurs because the footstool doesn't launch ZSS into the air if it is used on Robin close to the ground for some reason. I guess it could be added, but with patches and the like, Nintendo will probably actually do something about it this time. S c r 7 Scr7 sig.png(talk · contribs) 17:40, 15 September 2014 (EDT)

Footstool limit
Shouldn’t the number of times a character footstool another character be listed? Thegameandwatch   The Nerd  18:04, July 21, 2023 (EDT)
 * The first paragraph mentions 2-6 times. Or do you mean a proper number for each character? --CanvasK (talk) 18:55, July 21, 2023 (EDT)
