    How do I improve my mindset and as a player?

    Some things that helped me was rather than thinking to yourself "I shouldn't be losing to this player" you should be thinking about what you're doing that is giving him the openings to dair you constantly. Also, try to cut out all the negative thought while you play. When you lose a stock...

    How does one practice effectively?

    Yeah, I understand that now and am trying to implement it. I do think that I have finally reached that level where I can get into that mindset though. I think that the problem was that I've played smash since 2003 as a casual player and I carried over a lot of the same mindset and game plans as...

    How does one practice effectively?

    First off, thanks for all your help everybody. I've taken a lot of what you guys have said into consideration, and will definitely put a lot of it to good use. I probably should have been more clear, however, on the fact that It's not performing advanced techniques or controlling my character...

    So... Which do you prefer? Sing, or Rollout?

    I don't use either too often, but when I do I much prefer rollout. Though sing is satisfying to land, rollout imo is just a lot more so. It just feels like it shouldn't work but when it does it's oh so sweet lol.

    Do you prefer using the control stick to jump or the x/y button?

    I use Y for just about everything. I feel that it's easier to get to the C stick from Y as apposed to X due to it being a straight line rather than a slight arch. I actually used to use X, but I started to use Y after I started to main Falco due to it being slightly easier for me to do things...

    Need help with applying mental game.

    I've been playing for about a year and a half now, and I feel like I am at the point where my tech skill doesn't have to be the center focus during my matches anymore. What I seem to be having issues with is watching for my opponents habits, as well as making myself not so predictable. I play...
