It has been understood for a long time that you can hit your opponent through the platform in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. However, a recent tweet from Japanese player MakuaJD showed off some surprising and powerful “true” combos with Corrin’s Neutral-Air through a platform:

身長高いキャラに当たります
今のところベヨネッタクラウドロゼッタサムス辺りは確認済み

And that’s where Beefy Smash Doods steps in to do what they do best: explain why these combos work, and what you can do if your opponent is attempting to use this tech.

Do note that these combos will typically only hit medium-to-tall characters, and many of the moves that lead into these combos are unsafe. The original Corrin example still stands out for being a Neutral-Air instead of a traditional Down-Air: it has safety far surpassing most Dairs.

Seeing as Blake from RWBY is partially a cat, she seems a natural fit for BlazBlue: Central Fiction‘s Taokaka. Tao also happens to have a reference color for Blake. Koefficient continues a series of RWBY-inspired combo movies with a Tao video with ZyxxLolz.

As seen in the previous two videos, the pattern is pretty similar. Interwoven with Blake’s theme and her footage from her introductory clip, we get a hype mix of combat footage and Taokaka’s wild spirit. Not a very common choice in Central Fiction, Taokaka remains a highly-mobile warrior who can catch the opponent off-guard with overheads and quick cross-ups. Check out the high-octane “From Shadows” combo movie below.

The combo videos representing the first two ladies are already out: we have an Es combo movie (Ruby) and an Izayoi combo video (Weiss). Stay tuned for more!
