Being a falcon player means you need to be able to start reading your opponent pretty early on. Switching between many options can often throw them of, but if you pick safer options (grabbing and / or SH nair) you can start getting them to react. Observe what they do against it and then adapt...

Amiibos are like pokemon for smash. Whoever came up with the idea is a genius, but I agree it's not for everyone. I've been on the fence about getting one, but I'm partly interested due to NFC hackery also.

I was doing FG last night and I had quite a few shield breaks by following the missile up with a full charge shot. If I found myself on the other side of the stage I'd fire a missile and move forward a bit, if I saw them shielding the missile instead of moving I'd fire off the charge shot too...

Hey, I'm considering playing some more and I live in the Waterloo area. I see some notice about tournaments in the Waterloo subreddit (reddit.com/r/waterloo) but haven't had a good opportunity to visit yet.

Try this: Deal Extreme Link: EasyCAP USB 2.0 Audio/Video Capture/Surveillance Dongle My roommate uses this. The hardware works great, the software is a little buggy (it always switches back to PAL after every record and we manually need to change it back) but it's a great buy. I intend to...

Yea, I don't play against many different people which is probably why that's come about. I'm going to be getting out a bit more once school starts for this since there's a group here at school that plays. I'll point him to this thread, so go ahead.. Or PM me the advice if you want to keep...

Yea I'm a little skittish about going over the edge to edgeguard with ZSS. It's worked somtimes but I usually end up just getting edgehogged and can't grapple the edge to get back up. Do you have a method I could try and practice to better my edgeguarding/hogging techniques?

Great responses. I try not to Fsmash with her. When it happens it's usually because I either moved too quickly from the jump to the c-stick (to do an aerial) or because the jump didn't go off. That lends itself more to control rather which is still being worked on. The only time I wanted to...

Hey there, got 5 vids that my roommate and I recently recorded. Just looking for some advice for improvement: Video 1 Video 2 Video 3 Video 4 Video 5

Best way to play! >_>

I do blue or white when I play.

Mirror matches are also an accepted term though :) Learn something new every day! I haven't been playing brawl recently, but I was a falcon guy in melee and I still like playing him. I was sad to hear that he's not as well ranked among the smash cast but I know there is something that will...

Great Read. Valuable information for any smasher looking to improve. It reminds me of The Karate Kid where Miagi tells Daniel to return to the basics of life when he loses focus. And it helps him gain focus again.. Although the movie was a little cheesy, that lesson is valuable for anyone...

An example of how to would be awesome... The only way I can usually get killed without chasing to the edge which is avoidable on their part.. and gimping which isn't always successful... If you can provide a concrete kill move for me that doesn't need 180% to work please let me know :D

Do you have replay's that we could watch Zeal? I'm really interested in seeing some of your matches as I'm getting more and more frustrated with not being able to KO people :(
