I now started playing with Mario

[falcoblazes]

i always play with Falco, and i have no more training to do with him (i think) because i just won a tournament. I now started playing with Mario, can anyone tell me how i'm suppose to use him because since i got SSBM, Falco is the only player i've been playing with, so feel free and give me all what Mario has to offer.

Mario is a great character in the sense that he is incredibly versitile and well rounded. He does tend to have trouble getting the K.O though since he lacks in real power moves.

-learning mario's recovery is vital. cape first, throw some fireballs if possible, then d.jump, d.b, u.b. Although other variations are good for recovering too, c wat works 4 u.
-mario's up and down throws chain many char's, as well as being some of his best combo starters. play around with them.
-u. tilt, u. smash, and AUA work great 2gether and are Mario's best juggling/combo tools
-Shffld Aerials at low % connect very well with d.smash/u.smash
-fireballs are your friend in every way, get acquainted
-don't forget your cape, it's uses are truly limitless
-learn f.smash's sweet spot, definitly mar's strongest attack, but if u whiff, very punishable. Use well but be careful not to miss
-learn to quickly shffl AFA, great combo starter/attack in general but very laggy in not shffld properly
-ABA works wonderfully for early K.O's WoP style. good K.O power at higher %'s too
-if you don't already WD a lot, please start with Mar, he has a really good WD
-ADA is your 2nd best combo option IMO. It seems to be a more advanced way of comboing simply because people tend to have more trouble comboing with it at first, at least I know I did. L cancelled you have many options, and full jump ADA can be followed with any # of things as well.
-Sex kick, ANA, has great come out speed and priority, use often.

thats all i can think to write for now, go practice and spread the word. Mario Pwnz
d.throw/u.throw(char n % dependent) u.smash,u.tilt, your choice BREAD N BUTTA

Edit: a few useful things to know that I forgot to mention
-many moves, when caped=free forward smash/grab/wtevr
-d.throw, backwards WD, f.smash=pimp
-many of Mario's kills come from edgeguard/edgehog. Cape/d.tilted, u.tilted f.smash/aerials/ledge hopped ABA's are mar's best edgeguard options. Mario=Strong edgeguarder

good luck
peace

Good job, uwantsumshrimp. Those are the general rules of Mario you should use, falcoblazes. Mario's not a very hard character to use once you get used to him, unlike Mewtwo and some others. Good luck!

Mario still has some nice advanced techniques, like shorthop instand Bair to landwavedash
uair juggling isn´t too easy too.
