'''Tech-chasing''' is the act of following or predicting an opponent's [[tech]] in order to attack them before they can respond.  Because a character's [[tech]] animations have small windows of vulnerability before a character can shield, sidestep, dodge, or attack, it is possible to read the direction of a player's [[tech]] and punish the lag with an attack, [[jump-canceled grab]], or projectile.

Some characters are able to incorporate tech-chasing into a [[chain grab]] sequence.  A classic example is [[Captain Falcon]]'s [[up throw]] against [[fast-faller]]s.  After he throws, Captain Falcon can gain another grab by successfully tech-chasing his enemy.

A well-known example in Brawl is [[Snake]]'s [[down throw]]. During the animation he lays his opponent on the ground, and after the throw is over, if he can predict his opponent's roll, he can tech-chase them into another grab. Tech-chasing is much easier to do on characters with short tech rolls (such as [[Olimar]]) than those with long tech rolls (such as [[Zelda]])
