A new Smash Bros. technique (probably a glitch) called “PikAmp” has been discovered which makes Olimar a crazy unstoppable killing machine. Unfortunately for Olimar users, this technique is only usable in team matches with any real effectiveness. It requires you to coordinate with another player who is using Fox, plus it requires custom moves to be turned on, so its viability in the competitive scene at all is largely suspect.
The glitch works like this. First, you throw a Pikmin at Fox, hoping that it latches on. Then Fox uses the reflector to make the Pikmin, which count as a projectile, bounce off it. At this point you use Olimar’s Order Tackle custom move to call the Pikmin back. At this point, the Pikmin now does near max damage if used as an aerial normal. If you throw it or use it as a smash attack it will lose all its power, but simply doing things like a jumping forward air will break shields in one hit and kill anyone it touches.
There has been a bit of a reactionary buzz about this tech, saying that this will “ruin competitive Smash” and that “this kills the chance for custom moves in the competitive scene.” But these sentiments are kind of silly. This is no worse than stacking 3 PK Crushes in Game and Watch’s bucket in Melee . That too was an insta-kill, but it was so hard to practically set up in a team context no one ever did it, and it was essentially never usable in 1v1 matches. That’s exactly how I would describe this bug, which could possibly be patched out by Nintendo anyway.
