I believe the air dodge is as a replacement to another side-b which could hit with another jab, since it lets you get on stage safely.

You'll push them back and shield poke or force them to roll before you'll break their shield.

For your second question, PPMD and Zhu actually talked about it, and yeah, people can SDI the first jab and airdodge onto the stage, Mang0 does it a lot. That seems hard though. It's probably more because you cover that in addition to pushing them further down.

I had a problem with it until I just swapped my mindset. Instead of thinking of pressing the button fast, I thought of releasing the button fast. Of course it should be obvious since unless you release the button you won't short hop, but it helped me for some reason.

Dual main myself. I learned Falco more in the beginning to get more competitive at locals, but most of my focus goes into Fox. Honestly the simplest answer is just play who you have the most fun with.

I like to do this out of moonwalks for stylish edgehogs in friendlies.

I feel it. If they go Sheik I'll probably swap to Fox or Falco, friendlies or not.

Now a question for you, since I'm interested in Zelda as a pocket for friendlies. How do you make her work in Melee? I always get **** on by Sheiks or Foxes, and not for lack of trying.

This is actually something worth doing with all the characters, in my experience. It's really nice for keeping your dash dance tight, and keeping your options open so you're not bottlenecked into 1 or 2 approach options.

Dual spacies main myself, usually I'll only warm up one of the two before a tournament. However, the two spacies are different enough, and especially the spacies from other characters, that your muscle memory should be fine. Sometimes you do need to warm back up though, especially if you were...

Another thing to consider is that the timing for L-canceling drill can be tough at first, but it's the easiest move to shine after, IMO. Just practice doing it on nothing, on shields, and on characters.

This can be a hard matchup if you're on FD, since the CG can be inescapable (as far as I know) if they do it perfectly. When you're going for SHDL make sure you're at a safe distance, and fast enough to react to them approaching. As far as baiting goes, Marth isn't the only person with a...

if CGs are on, go to town, but if you agreed not to, and you're on game 5 last stock then you start CGing, not only are you a bad person, the next time you play that person I promise you they'll CG on the first stock to the last stock.

There's no problem with maining a low tier character. The only thing I can say, is that if you start complaining after a loss and blame it on your character, you're officially that guy. It's not the winner's fault you're playing a low tier. That being said, the low tiers are low tiers for a...

Fox is Fox's worst MU. Fox always wins. Nah but serious answer though. I think Fox struggles the most with Marth, but only on FD. That CG can be brutal, and if you get sloppy, the Marth can just DD away from everything and then punish you with a grab.
