How To Get Snake's Codec In Brawl By Which Controller

Snake needs to exist unlocked

The master gunman from the world of Metal Gear Solid makes his debut in SSBB.

Ophidian is an extremely powerful heavy-weight character that has all manner of gadgets and weaponry. He has very skillful smashes, great projectiles, and strong throws, making him very powerful. Sadly, he can't practice very well in the air, and should exist kept on the ground most of the time.

A powerful recovery technique used by the pros is the 'C4 Leap'. What you do is, when you get knocked off, use your Nothing to get close to the stage, and then, right before the cypher disappears, drib a C4 and blow it upwardly. If you fourth dimension it right (when to drop it during the Null heave, in particular) yous volition hit Snake with the blast of the C4, assuasive yous to use another Nothing! This lets Ophidian recover over incredible distances!

When using the final smash, try and hit a petty bit beneath the opponent about 3-v times to successfully 1000.O. your opponent.

Standard Attacks [edit]

Wii Remote + Nunchuk	Wii Remote (sideways)	Wii Archetype Controller	GameCube Controller	Standard Assault	Info
				Basic Combo	Impairment: iv%,3%,7% Total Harm: 14% Urgency:Low-Medium Punches twice then kicks. Proficient for doing a quick fourteen% and knocking the opponent back to use snakes projectiles. Able to impale most characters around 120%, so it'south better for doing impairment instead of KOing. Is likewise peachy for comboing into forwards A if you cancel after the first punch (to practise this, apace hunker in-between the offset and 2d punch, so stop the crouch immediately and do both hits of forrad A).
+	+	+	+	Knee Lock	Impairment:8%,9%-12% Total Damage:17%-20% Urgency:High Snake knees the opponent and then punches them out. Does more than damage depending on where the opponent is striking. Usually a better selection than his neutral A combo because it does more harm and still launches about the same altitude. This motion can also lock opponents with its outset hit.
+	+	+	+	Leg Blow	Impairment:12% if hitting an airborne opponent, 13% if hitting an opponent on the ground. Urgency:High Snake kicks upwards. This move is known for its ridiculous speed, range and power. This is easily Snake'southward most reliable KO move, able to kill most characters at near 100%.
+	+	+	+	Low Sweep	Damage:ten% Urgency:Low Serpent crouches downward and kicks. Although information technology is fast and has good power, Snake's up A is just as fast with more damage and vertical range and the same horizontal range, so this move shouldn't be used likewise often unless you're worried most staling your up A.
while dashing	while dashing	while dashing	while dashing	Dash Lunge	Impairment:11% to opponents on standing on the ground or in midair, 9% to targets laying down on the floor. Urgency:Medium Lunges straight into the opponent. A great motility considering it can be used to striking an opponent earlier a dacus uses the upwards smash and information technology has great range for a dash attack. The only problem is if it is used right next to an opponent and then it will completely miss the opponent.

Smash Attacks [edit]

Wii Remote + Nunchuk	Wii Remote (sideways)	Wii Classic Controller	GameCube Controller	Blast Assail	Info
Smash +	+ +	(Smash + ) or	(Smash + ) or	Rocket Launcher	Damage:22% uncharged, 30% fully charged. Urgency:Depression Fires a rocket at the ground in front of him. It has the higest base of operations knockback out of any forrard blast in the game. This makes information technology an extremly powerful motion near the edge (in fact it tin fifty-fifty KO under 25%.). While it does huge damage and base knockback, it is slow with nearly a second of starting lag and about half a second of catastrophe lag, the entire movement takes well-nigh two and a half seconds. Information technology likewise has only moderate knockback scaling compared to it'due south base knockback. Nonetheless, its good range and huge power brand information technology a decent nail, but don't await to get many hits in on experienced players unless y'all read an expected move, such as getting off the ledge, and is the third strongest forward nail in the game.
Nail +	+ +	(Smash + ) or	(Boom + ) or	Mortar	Harm:4% from taking out the mortar, ten% from the vanquish. Total Damage:10%-14% Urgency:Medium Fires a mortar directly upwards. Taking out the mortar on an opponent will deal 4% and launch them up where the mortar beat out will striking them, letting this motility do 14% instead of 10%. Dissimilar most smashes, charging will not increment the impairment of the mortar shell, but will instead launch the shell farther upward. Great for edgeguarding any character, just not particularly useful anywhere else due to most aerial attacks being able to go right through it, although you could try to punish a landing opponent who hits it.
Smash +	+ +	(Smash + ) or	(Smash + ) or	State Mine	Impairment:14% uncharged, nineteen% fully charged. Urgency:Low-Medium Plants a country mine in the ground. Although it is expert to plant in strategic positions such as most ledges or establish one to launch an opponent into, information technology will explode from anyone, even you and your teammate(s), so it isn't advisable to use this often in teams since your grenades and C4 are already enough your teammate has to pay attention to. Depression urgency in doubles, and medium urgency in singles. It's boring to plant, however, so you should only constitute it when an opponent (or both if you want to utilize this in doubles) is KO'd or recovering from offstage. Planting one while one is already out will make the other one disappear.

Pummels and Throws [edit]

Wii Remote + Nunchuk	Wii Remote (sideways)	Wii Classic Controller	GameCube Controller	Pummel/Throw	Info
after take hold of	after take hold of	after catch	later grab	Neck Snap	Damage:2% Urgency:Low-Medium Snake chokes his opponent. It is relatively fast for a pummel assail, but it shouldn't be used too much unless you are certain the opponent cannot break costless in time.
subsequently grab	later on grab	after grab	later grab	Flip Throw	Harm:nine% Urgency:Depression-Medium Ophidian flips the opponent abroad. At low harm you can easily combo it into a dash attack, but generally outclassed by Backflip Toss due to having lower knockback, although it could still exist good to use based on direction to throw the opponent offstage.
subsequently catch	after catch	after grab	afterwards grab	Backflip Toss	Damage:9% Urgency:Medium Ophidian throws the opponent backwards. Almost the same equally Snake's forward throw, it can also potentially philharmonic into a dash attack. However, this throw will crusade opponent to lay on the ground instead of land standing like Serpent's forwards throw. College knockback than frontwards throw.
after grab	afterwards catch	after grab	afterward take hold of	High Toss	Harm:ten% Urgency:Low Snake tosses the opponent upwards. At low damage it tin can hands combo into an upwardly tilt or up aeriform, but other than that it is generally outclassed by every other throw unless you are really good at juggling an opponent with a poor down aerial such every bit Marth. Can as well be used to throw opponents straight into a C4 or Land Mine that is on a platform in a higher place you.
subsequently grab	later catch	later on grab	subsequently grab	Lay Down	Harm:12% Urgency:Medium-Loftier Snake lays the opponent on to the ground. Not but is information technology Ophidian'south most damaging throw, just information technology can also chain grab if you run the right management when an opponent rolls, merely they can practice a attack on the ground instead, then be quick to shield if you mess upwards. If you can predict the opponent yous tin also get great combos off from this, such as a forward A on most characters if they roll forward or an up A on whatsoever other getup option.

Air Attacks [edit]

Wii Remote + Nunchuk	Wii Remote (sideways)	Wii Classic Controller	GameCube Controller	Air Attack	Info
				Quadruple Kicks	Damage:6%,5%,4%,xiii% Full Damage:28% Urgency:Depression-Medium Kicks four times. The last kick has very high knockback. If you know how to utilise this well, use it a lot, for 28% is huge damage and y'all can kill in only iii or four of these attacks if you land all hits. However, proceed in mind skilled opponents may SDI out of the last striking, which leaves you very open to punishment. This is still a great move though, particularly for edgeguarding when used with the Mortar.
+	+	+	+	Leg Slam	Damage:14% in leg, fifteen% on tip of foot. Urgency:Low Brings his leg down similar an axe. A powerful meteor smash. Although information technology is a proficient meteor nail, it is slow and only the tip of Serpent's foot volition cause a meteor smash, whereas the leg simply launches the opponent up (nevertheless with good knockback.) Just utilize if you can hands hit moving opponents on the tip of Snake's foot.
+	+	+	+	Rear Kick	Damage:10% if sour spotted, 14% if normal hit,16% if sweet spotted. Urgency:High Thrusts his legs behind him. It has great speed, great knockback, and a disjointed hitbox. One of Snake's best moves, it has a sweet spot at snakes center of mass at the beginning of the attack and a sour spot anywhere a little after the movement starts. Only downside is it's long landing lag.
+	+	+	+	Up Thrust	Damage:10% if sour spotted, xiv% if sweet spotted. Urgency:High Thrusts his legs upwards. Just like his back aerial with just a little less landing lag and facing up. It can also be used to juggle a little bit on opponents with poor down aerials, merely Snake'southward ho-hum speed doesn't brand him the all-time juggler. Even so, it doesn't take a third hitbox for 16% like Snake'south back aerial.
+	+	+	+	Quadruple Stomp	Impairment:6%,five%,five%,12% Total Damage:28% Urgency:Depression Stomps downwards four times. Does huge damage and the terminal stomp does huge knockback. Snake tin can go all four hits on his opponent in a single brusk hop correct next to an opponent, but this has very long landing lag. Only similar with neutral aerial, skilled opponents tin SDI out of this attack, merely against opponents who do not know how to SDI well this is a devastating punishing move, and can too be great to combo out of a down throw.

Special Attacks [edit]

Wii Remote + Nunchuk	Wii Remote (sideways)	Wii Archetype Controller	GameCube Controller	Special Attack	Info
				Hand Grenade	Damage:2% from impact of regular throw,3% from impact of back tilt throw,4% from impact of forrard tilt throw or from impact of regular item throwing,12% from explosion. Urgency:High Concur the button to agree on to the grenade; release the button to throw it. Tilt the control stick to alter the altitude of the throw. You can have two grenades out at a time, and everyone can pick upward the grenade after thrown. The best use of grenades is to bring 1 out, shield or take hold of (which causes the grenade to drop), and so picking it upwards and throwing it as an item. The grenade'due south fuse is nigh 3 seconds, and then you can "cook" the grenade so opponent's won't have plenty fourth dimension to throw it dorsum. Ane terminal tactic for Serpent's grenades are to throw one, then become some other out and either shield or grab. This will make the other grenade fall instantly, stopping all horizontal and vertical movement. This will also make a grenade autumn out of an opponents paw or a teammates manus, making it fall right next to the person who was holding information technology. Snake'south grenades are astonishing projectiles, being able to exist completely controlled and used around walls such as on many transformations of Pokémon Stadium ane. If you are always at far or medium range, use these, and they tin also be smashing at close range, as getting hit while you are holding one volition usually make the grenade explode (unless spaced perfectly), even if yous are in your shield. They can also exist used this way to assistance Snake go out of combos and some chain grabs if not performed perfectly. Plus, even if Snake gets hitting in this way, he tin survive longer than anyone only Male monarch Dedede, so trading impairment is usually a good deal.
+	+	+	+	Nikita Missile	Harm:7% if information technology hits an opponent after releasing command of the missile,fourteen% if it hits while you are nevertheless controlling it. Urgency:Very Low Utilize the command stick to steer the missile. Press the shield button to release control of the missile. Unfortunately, this makes you completely vulnerable, as releasing control of the missile even takes a second for Ophidian to be able to motility, and the missile is tiresome, especially while making it plow. Also, opponents can attack it with whatever attack and change its direction and cause it non to explode while they are attacking information technology. The missile volition get in about i and a half final destination lengths before y'all automatically lose control. You can also accept multiple missiles out at the same time, but this move is still only really useful for edgeguarding, but in that section it is severely outclassed by Snake's Mortar and neutral aerial in almost every situation that could ever happen.
+	+	+	+	Naught	Damage:six% for hitting an opponent after Snake releases it. Urgency:Very Low But ever use information technology equally a recovery move. The cipher volition keep to fly up after Snake releases it, mayhap hit an opponent. Different near recovery moves, Nada volition allow Snake to utilize a move in the duration of the recovery or later on the duration of it, not putting y'all in the helpless state. Another interesting affair about Cypher is it gives you invincibility from being launched by low knockback moves. Even so, strong launching moves such equally smash attacks and meteor smashes will not be stopped, and y'all always take the impairment of the move, even if information technology is a low knockback move. This recovery does have 1 major flaw though: if the Ophidian is grabbed in his zippo, and non hit with a pummel or throw, when the grapheme is released he will not exist able to use his cypher unless he gets hit while falling. If this happens, try the C4 technique I mention in the next motion.
+	+	+	+	C4	Damage:17% Urgency:Medium-Loftier Perform one time to set the charge on the footing (or on an opponent!); perform again to blow information technology upwards. If you set the charge on an opponent, information technology will eventually be able to switch who it is on with the same noise than is heard when you first set it on an opponent. This makes it smashing for teams; y'all tin can prepare information technology on a teammate and when it switches from your teammate to an opponent you lot can blow it upwardly. Can also be used to salve yourself from falling, as blowing yourself up lets you lot get some other nil. It can also be used to gear up traps, and in combination with Snake's grenades, land mine, and possibly fifty-fifty Mortar, he tin lock down an area of the phase with peachy efficiency and brand information technology hard for opponents to arroyo, oft finding themselves running direct into a grab, forward A, or upward A. In add-on, if information technology is on an opponent, yous tin blow information technology upwardly and shield to perfect shield so you can do information technology adjacent to it, however this does not piece of work if it is on the footing, and then exist careful.

Taunts [edit]

Wii Remote + Nunchuk	Wii Remote (sideways)	Wii Classic Controller	GameCube Controller	Taunt
				Whips out a cardboard box and hides under it.
+	( or ) +	or	or	Whips out a paper-thin box in a slightly different way and hides under information technology.
	+			Whips out a cardboard box in a 3rd style and hides nether information technology. Press information technology for only a divide 2d when on Shadow Moses Island, and Serpent contacts Colonel Campbell, Mei Ling, or Otacon on the codec to talk about i of his opponents. If you exercise this while fighting Falco, Slippy calls him instead. This works for everyone he faces, including himself. If interrupted, the bulletin will not announced.

Concluding Smash [edit]

Grenade Launcher: Damage:16-eighteen% for each grenade that hits

Snake yells 'It'southward showtime!' before calling in a helicopter and starts firing grenades from the rider area. The weapon merely has two magazines, with six rounds each, so it is best to simply unload equally many grenades as possible before the time expires. The grenades deal a considerable amount of damage and has a adequately large area of effect. They do take a slight delay, though, and so aim where you retrieve an enemy will be in half a 2nd, instead of where they are at the moment.

Match Ups [edit]

Ganondorf [edit]

Should be like shooting fish in a barrel. But attack him before he issues his final smash moves or if he uses his final smash you're doomed. You are significantly faster than ganandorf and then endeavor to discover high footing and barrage him with your projectiles. This will as well assistance you avoid his very powerful shut range attacks. If he does go shut either run away or become behind him and perform snakes loftier knock back combos. Then barrage him with long range weapons again. Stages that motility or big stages will help you face up him.

Rex Dedede [edit]

King Dedede is a big target for all of Snakes basic and special attacks. Just scout out for many of dededes hammer attacks. Virtually the same story as Ganandorf, but he has a recovery motion. He has a very (very) poor air game so when he uses his recovery move, he is most vulnerable. If he is at high percentages, shoot him with a guided rocket. If not, fly over to him and kick him as far as possible or fifty-fifty wait for him to land and perform combos.

Bowser [edit]

Always throw things at him, including grenades ,before he gets close to y'all. If he does get close, his straight attacks are very devastating confronting Snake. Remember that you are much faster than Bowser. If Bowser gets shut, use one of Snake'south powerful knock backs repeatedly or use a dash attack to put some distance between you and Bowser. Try to stay either above or below bowser every bit he is very powerful on a horizontal plane. When you lot are below him, your upward kick, mortar and grenades are very helpful. Being above is a worse position, but you tin can throw grenades use the guided roctets or place c-4 and then have him chase you into information technology. Bowser'southward only recovery movement is horizontal, so call back to use that every bit well. Stay away from flat maps like final destination. Instead use moving courses or courses with lots of platforms

Sonic [edit]

The key to this battle is using his speed against him. Your projectiles will non be as effective against him. Instead, place c-4 or land mines for him to set off. If you tin can dodge his speed attacks near the edge, he will nearly certainly fall off. He has weak recovery moves and he is very vulnerable afterwards. Use that to perform a high knock back motion. If y'all have time, fire the rocket at his feet. Information technology should knock him off. Staying on a different level confronting him is also helpful.

Ike [edit]

About the same strategy as Ganandorf. His close range attacks are very powerful and have massive knock back. Stay away from him for the most part. He has no recovery moves so knocking him off should be outset priority. Rack upwards pct with projectiles and driblet down on him and use combos or a pes rocket to blow him off. He also has no projectiles so using the guided rocket won't be an issue.

Fox [edit]

About the same strategy every bit Bowser except that he is quicker. His lasers are deadly and quick then stay away if at all possible. Fox excels at combos just has no existent knockout moves. His recoveries as well aren't the greatest. Stay above him and pummel him with grenades and guided rockets. If he is straight below you, drop down and blow him up. You completely overpower him close range. Ship him off with a foot rocket and if he comes back hit him with a guided rocket or punch him off. His aeriform game isn't overly powerful either.

Pit [edit]

Pit will be more than of a claiming. Not only does he accept i of the best recoveries in the game, but he has a reflective shield. You can get nether his shield past using the mortar, and the grenades volition also do harm. For Pit, you lot will need to get some of your damage through items. He is a very light graphic symbol so information technology won't require to much percent but still be careful. He is pretty fast so exist conscientious to get out of his combos. Country mines are too effective against Pit. The best strategy against him is to avoid his arrows and combos while focusing on getting behind him and picking up items.

Marth [edit]

Marth is very skilful. Stay abroad from close contact as his combos are menacing and his dolphin slash. He has no projectiles and no real horizontal recovery and so apply this to your advantage. Shielding volition exist very important against him and endeavor to get behind him when she is using his combos because they are long. Then you will be able to punish and at loftier percentage use the foot rocket. Flat stages will exist the best when fighting him. Also, try to dodge his finishing set on because if he misses he will kill himself.

Link [edit]

Link out ranges you in his regular attacks and then for the well-nigh part you should stay abroad. He has a variety of projectiles and attacks, but they are not well-nigh as accurate or as long range every bit Snake's. He doesn't really have a recovery and he is fairly lightweight so he volition be ko-ed hands. Stay away and go along on moving courses so he shouldn't be a trouble.
