Maybe your attacks are predictable to easy when you just run towards your enemy and try to attack its easy to avoid.Just try to mix you moving with wavedashes and shffled Nairs also try to dthrow your enemy and mix up then a bit

Just know who you're fighting and fight accordingly. Don't attack Marth head-on. Don't try and combo jiggs. Edgeguard the crap outta C.falcon. And just practice different combos and techniques on comps. Practice makes perfect, lol.

Orale una de la raza k onda!

Anyway I agree with yang, if ur predictable nothing will work, try mindgames, go straight for the nemy, just when he thinkg u'll attack WD backwards and then jump and SHFFL some nairs, tilt a is a blessing, I use it a lot and always combo a lot of my oponents, use ur imagination!

You mean using Uair with the C-Stick? Its all about practice just do it like this
Step 1 : 25 Shorthops
Step 2 : 10 Shorthops + Uair

See how much fo this 10 you get if you get 4 or less then go to Step 1 again
If you get 5-8 practice 10 shorthops and 25 shorthops + Uair
If you get 9-10 just practice SH + Uair

Well dude ty for ur help but u didnt get it... i tryed to tell u that i loose some time doing the u air with the c-stick instead of doing it with analog and a button, i get to do it with c-stick but it is slower than doing it with analog -.- but ty anyway ill practice what you've told me.

yeah i hadd the same problem with my style before..

you knwo what saved my smash reputation? Dash Dance + Wave Dash

mix them and maybe a few Wave Lnds i f you get the chance then you LOOK hella good and get the hang of the controll over Mario xD

to the appproaches Mario has an awesome grab combo starter so use it

i mostly start with my dash dance WD combination but if you dont master that Dash Dancing is enuff
DD+Short Hop + Nair
WD Dance+ at the right moment WD to the opponent and Downsmash!!!! it really helps me against Marths!

uumm....try to do this also!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! ! ! ! !!!!!!!!! gotta try i luv this one!!!

k its not as great as the amount of exclemation marks but :
Dash(run!) + Short Hop + Uair(l caneled) + Fast Fall!!!! (of course!) + DOWNSMASH!!!
it looks awesome it IS awesome use it

try those and youll fell muchh more comfortable belieeeeeeve me

coz i had the same problem =P

kk guys u hellp a lot but i want much more help so soon ill upload some vids with me playing so u can check my style... by the way, i can control fine the DD and the WD but my only proble i think is front atacks that hit me all the time and the SH+UAir combo i hit UAir too slow and thats slows down the combo so my enemys can escape from it.

When you are that slow with UAir just do Uair to Fsmash that should be possible. Maybe you should shield more or so it's hard to tell what you need to fix without videos
