3 Useful Combos and Tips:
The following are useful basic combos for people who are starting to pick up Samus
Battle Begins Combo: 3...2...1... GO!
As soon as the battle starts run at the player followed by a running 'A' attack, after, follow up with a Up Air
Once they hit the ground, swoop in and try another! The worst outcome is they either tech the hit (get up attack) or you simply miss the attack. If done right you could have a juggle combo on your hands...
Finisher Combo: When your opponent has 110+% or higher run at them, followed by a dash attack, then up air, the back air for the killer move.
Laser Combo: When your foe has 80% or higher, charge your laser to it's full power and keep it saved for now.... Next launch 2 missiles (side B) then shoot the laser unexpectedly and surprise them with the charge shot, catching them off guard and KOing them in the process.
