Yes, the title pretty much says it. I didn't discover it, but here it is.

Just watch 0:00 to 0:30 and you'll see it.

It's a pretty good technique that FINALLY puts some priority in Meta Knight's down B (well...outside of that edge grabbing thing that isn't that good). It's very useful, but hard to do for longer then 3 to 5 seconds. Allow me to tell/teach you how to perform this move.

1. Do Meta Knight's down B. :metaknight:

2. After doing Meta Knight's down B, click any direction with the control stick. If you aren't pressing the control stick in a direction, it won't work.:metaknight:

3. Rapidly press up on the C-stick. Press/slam the C-stick up (and ONLY UP) as long as you want to be "invisible" and "stuck using" Meta Knight's down B. :metaknight:

4. Don't stop rapidly pressing up on the C-stick unless you want to stop. Also-don't stop aiming at a direction unless you want to stop it from working. You can however change directions, BUT DO IT FAST! :metaknight:

5. *optional* Press A to attack! Ya I know-the A button to attack thing is hard! [/sarcasm] :metaknight:

If you don't go any direction, it won't work. At all. You can go up, down, diagonal, sideways, left, right,...everywhere. Personally I've found uses as it to throw off my opponents, space, and stall campers from camping. In other words-I can stop most campers now thanks to this. You can stall with it, but thanks to the moving screen it's obvious where you are so it isn't that good for more then a second or two. It's literally almost worthless as a long stall, but it's good for offensive, defensive, moving, recovering (yes! EVEN THAT!), mind games, and spacing tactics. Definitely worth knowing for several situations for all you Meta Knight users out there. ;) :metaknight:

Pretty useful, eh? Thanks to Brawl Central for this information! :D :metaknight:
