#La Reina Fstrong killing on shield

I was playing vs a La Reina and I teched towards the ledge. La reina attempted to fstrong me and it resulted in her killing me while I was in shield... As you can see in the video I did not release shield at all but I got the crit screen when it happened. Reviewing it it shows her as Aerial the entire time, which from my knowledge means that she should phase through me and have no collision.

Not a through shield interaction

#

Its from the chair slamming into the ground

west thicket
#

wait yeah idk what the deal with that is

crude birch
#

Yeah i have dug deep into it and the only variables I can find are:

In the interaction in question 2 frames before I'm (maypul) supposed to be off the stage with a -1.350 value

When trying to replicate it I always hear the shield clink before being sent off the stage.

My shield health was full so I don't think it was a weird shield break situations

Reina is in an aerial state until the hitbox so collision does not make sense.

I cannot replicate the results

#

Shield was held through the entire interaction so it is not a shield drop. There is no shield di because the sticks are both in neutral... i checked ecb and no results

I think you might have gotten pushed off the ledge the same frame that you got hit causing your shield to drop and also making the attack connect. In the top video it looks like she touched the ground and then the next frame after that is when you got purpled.

#

yeah i think thats what happened

#

Similar stuff happens on Eta and im under the impression its intentional

#

sorry for low bitrate. diamond shaped yellow boxes in the center of models are ECB(environmental collision boxes)

This is definitely you sliding offstsge

#

Happens occasionally when youre really close to the edge

#

Yeah, you're literally on the edge of the stage so any multihit does this reliably without shield DI against it; unlucky but possible to be pushed off and hit by other moves. You'll notice you are aerial when you go into hitstun.

tested in scenario 4 ... pushoff cannot happen with Aerial state

#

@rigid rover @thorny narwhal @opaque charm @hollow ruin

And difference in Scenario 4 is that pul is even closer to the stage slide off..

#

I have tried to recreate this multiple times and it doesn't work any way I come up with.

rigid rover
#

Did you roll to the edge of the stage?

crude birch
#

The only things I see that are inconsistent are.. 1 my shield box just disappears on the hit.... 2 My cordinates before the hit show me at -1.3450 2 frames prior the hit even though I'm still standing on the stage.. 3. in EVERY recreation the shield will make a sound before I slide off.

I understand this looks like "newb doesn't understand ECB" but the answer is no it is not a ECB issue

rigid rover
#

I have video of the same thing happening

crude birch
#

I teched and went straight into shield

#

no additional inputs were entered

crude birch
#

only difference is that in vod 4 she gets even closer to the edge so it should have been better results from the fstrong

rigid rover
#

At the end of this video you can see my down special push kragg off the pillar, then the second hit killed him.

#

Wish I had the original clip

#

Usually if it looks like your shield stopped working, double check youre not by a ledge. I made the same mistake of calling it a bug, in the past, when it was just a shield slide off

crude birch
#

I'd have to check when Zetterburn is considered grounded and for how many frames he is active with his Splash..

Because the issue is not so much "Its a slide off" that isn't making sense. It's "she's Aerial and had collision" that is not making sense... And again If you look at 2 frames PRIOR the grounded hit it shows that Maypul was considered offstage even though she's still in shield.

Its not an ECB created pushback issue considering again look at Video 4 of the second comment. I could not be any more ECB in that video. and it still got the shield before the hit. She has a grand total on 1 frame for her splash damage.

If you think I'm wrong, please recreate the scenario because I've tried 50+ different ideas and still have yet to find a successful recreation of the situation

#

This has been my White whale of a project because my friend and I have for a week now to recreate it because he wants to know what caused it so he can see about setting up scenarios with it.

#

Because this is the part that is not making sense to me

rigid rover
#

Most of the time it happens when somebody rolls towards ledge and their max roll distance gets cut short.
As zetterburn, if someone is on fire, you can fsmash someone shielding in that scenario. The first hit pushes them offstage, the second kills them

#

Thats all ive got

crude birch
#

And yea that still makes sense

#

but difference is... this is a single hit move

rigid rover
#

Hope you figure it out

crude birch
#

but can you at least see why I'm saying it looks like a bug?

rigid rover
#

I do, but considering the location of the person shielding I am pretty sure its a slide off. Not to dismiss the inconsistencies youve been finding.

#

My only other guess is that her collision box pushed you offstage

#

That happens frequently enough too

crude birch
#

And here it is on the recreation. ECB is very overlapped but none of the wild inconsistency

rigid rover
crude birch
#

the issue there is that Fstrong doesn't get influenced with airspeed tmk... It's a set speed and distance

rigid rover
#

Tangent again....
Another move that does this is oly upspecial. If youre too close to ledge, the vacuum hitboxes can suck your shield in while she recovers

crude birch

#

So its like slideoff from the other direction

crude birch
#

I can get it.

#

but yeah. Hopefully someone can recreate this just for Peace of mind... It would be wild if there was some type of weird input he didn't realize he made that did a weird interaction

#

but I'm pretty close to just going "its a 1 in a million" situation and moving on.

rigid rover
#

I figured it out

crude birch
#

ok

rigid rover
#

J

crude birch
#

Ya know... that would be funny if it turns out that's the issue of why I can't recreate it... the modder's adjusted her weight

#

Can La Reina be aerial but the chair itself be considered grounded with this move?

#

I assume the chair ECB loses collision with the stage (I mean, it's clearly clipping through) but am wondering if the fact that the chair is not actually a player means the frame advance viewer is not getting a full picture of its state
