Hi Melee boards! After witnessing the godly hype that was Genesis 3, I've finally decided to start playing Melee on a competitive level. I've been enjoying the game as a casual and a spectator for many years, so I know how the game works, it's just a matter of learning everything myself. So, on to the things I need tips about.
1) Wavedashing and SHFFL/L-canceling. Currently, I am trying to learn how to apply these basic techs. While practicing, I'm usually 60-80% consistent with Wavedashing, and 40-50% accurate with L-canceling (I haven't attempted a SHFFL yet). What I want advice is 1) any tips for practicing beginner tech in general and 2) if I should wavedash with the L button or the R button. Normally I wavedash with L, but I'm considering using R.
2) Approaching as Marth. From what I understand he has a lot of options, but I don't really know what they are, how to apply them, or follow up. It would be nice if I could get tips from a fellow Marth main. (If you want a specific MU, then I would like Falco as his lasers give me a rough time when I try to get close)
3) Appropriate times for chain grabbing fast fallers. I know chain grabbing Fox on FD is good, but are there other fast fallers or stages where chain grabbing can be put to good use?
