Is it really that bad?

Tripping can occur randomly, but it often occurs after a move that increases your susceptibility to tripping. Utilts cause this mostly. So tripping can be used as a stradegy in game.

I've also noticed that recovery after a trip is not THAT bad. There are very few fames that you cannot throw up a shield or dodge during recovery.

opinions?

Occasionally I will trip right in front of my opponent, only to be hit with a heavily charged foward/up/down smash.

Sometimes tripping is annoying, but I always use it to my benefit the best that I can. Other than that, it's just a minor annoyance.

You trip by performing an action that increases your chances of tripping, generally things that throw your fighter off-balance before starting a dash, I.E. Dashing and then dashing in the other direction immediately afterward or Up-tilt then dashing immediately afterward. It also has a random occurance rate of 1-2%, and only happens when you start the dash animation...and when you hit a banana peel.

Unlucky trips are more likely, but lucky trips can happen as well. Other than that, it occurs so rarely that I find little use in complaining about it.
