Yoshi (SSBB): Difference between revisions

**{{buff|Yoshi will now always force his opponent into an [[Grab release|aerial grab release]] if he doesn't throw his opponent. This combined with the changes to aerial grab releases give him grab release followups on a significant portion of the cast, such as a chain grab on 17 characters and a guaranteed followup into his forward aerial meteor smash offstage.}}

**{{buff|Introduction of a great pivot grab significantly improved Yoshi's grabbing game, and help boost his defensive game. Yoshi's pivot grab has the least amount of startup out of his grabs (frame 10) and more significantly; ending lag (FAF 36).}}

*[[Pummel]]:

**{{buff|Pummel has less ending lag (FAF 25 → 16).}}

**{{buff|Egg Lay has a longer duration (frames 17-21 → 17-22) and can now be [[B-reversing|B-reversed]].}}

**{{nerf|Due to universally decreased fall speeds, Egg Lay is much less effective at edgeguarding.}}

*[[Egg Roll]]:

**{{change|Egg Roll has different sound effects.}}

**{{buff|Egg Throw now gives Yoshi a slight hop in the air, improving his recovery.}}

**{{nerf|The eggs from Egg Throw deal less damage (10%/12% → 9%) and knockback, and they can no longer be tossed backwards, (while this nerf is nullified because he can now reverse this move), they additionally have a finite number of throwing angles and they have more startup lag and a shorter duration (frames 18-55 → 20-40).}}

*[[Yoshi Bomb]]:

**{{buff|When Yoshi Bomb is used from the ground, it produces a weak hitbox during the rise that takes an enemy standing directly in front of Yoshi up with him, comparable to [[Final Cutter]].}}

*{{Sm|HadesBlade|USA}}

*{{Sm|Poltergust|USA}} - Was widely considered to be the best Yoshi player in the world when he actively played.

*{{Sm|Zudenka|Switzerland}} - Best Yoshi in Europe. Placed 5th at [[Super Lion 4]] and 17th at [[Bushido Brawl Impact]].
