I don't know if this will make me lose all respect that I could have, but I would like to here feedback about my marth. Oh and I tend to kill myself a couple times, definitely by accident!

Such as what moves I should do more of, what I should avoid, or anything else you might feel like saying that could help me beat "That Guy."
Oh and by the way they are all against sheik, among my group of friends he is the best.

Ok form what i saw, your Marth is ok, you know the basics. However, you jumped into the **** alot, whiffed too many attacks and grabs. So here's my advice:

- Practice not rolling so much
- Go practice your spacing
- Work on mixing up what you do, including responses and recovery
- Try not throwing out senseless attacks and practice to tip an aim
- Don't use Dash Attack
- Go over a few of the guides in this thread: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=172497

Ugh, no dash attacks. Thanks for the tips, my approach pretty much sucks for every character I play.

Thanks SugarSheik I don't know what I do without your third comment repeating what everyone else said. But reading seems like not a bad idea.

Nair does not ****. It's really only good on big/fat/tall characters. Smaller characters can get through it quite easily. NAir is still uber good tho, =P.

I love you too jared :)
but really, use the counter to get out of the forward tilt lock thingy, try to fair to D-tilt that works well, and stop rolling so much. D-throw to F-smash, and work on your spacing lol

Rather than down throw to forward smash, at 0% do forward throw to forward smash :3 Works wonders
