    How do I neutral?

    Thank you, I can see that a lot of options that I have thought of as use all the time/as much as possible like crouch cancel are more for dealing with certain moves that you predict to come at you. Going through each of the top 8's good moves in their kit (the most used or best hitbox ones)...

    How do I neutral?

    I guess this game just doesn't click for me like other fighters do, I was hoping I'd find some new video that elaborated on some neutral stuff but all of the ones I've seen including that one don't do me any good unfortunately. Perhaps just some help on applying crouch cancel to my game would...

    How do I neutral?

    I guess I'm just not capable of picking up useful stuff through experience in this game, it simply doesn't feel intuitive to me. Oh well

    How do I neutral?

    I don't think I'm grasping what things I should be looking for to be able to land a hit. I understand move priority can play into it a lot of times as it makes the difference of who gets to start the combo and who doesn't. However, most big and disjointed moves have too much startup to be able...

    Bad Habits

    Thanks for the insight, my current goal of not going 0-2 in tournament is rather vague and needs other short term goals if it's ever going to be reached with any sort of consistency. I realize now that friendlies are amazing for me to polish up ideas and improve in these aspects and that I have...

    Bad Habits

    I have been playing smash brothers for many years casually and want to go competitive but I find myself doing things seemingly out of impulse even hen I know I have other options (ie. Shield grab everything on shield or just keep holding it until they throw something out and always using aerials...

    Social The Pichu Social & General Discussion Thread

    The way i imagine standard jumps function are that gravity begins to slow down the character's ascent until it transitions to a descent, so the fastest point of rising of any given jump or normal double-jump is at the beginning. Theoretically if Pichu's dj rises the same speed as his fh, then it...

    So i won my first match but..

    I can see a serious tournament set as a pichu ditto being speculated, so don't worry about that. Don't worry about how others thought you performed, just look for ways to improve since you're new to the tournament scene. Be sure tournament smite anyone who takes your choice of Pichu lightly.

    20LC

    What does LC sand for? Are we using the competitive pokemon term Little Cup? If so I love it.

    positioning/spacing against falco

    Lol I forgot about that "in-game sprite" they use for pichu that is just just a ripped picture from the anime

    Pichu Neutral Game

    Is there a way to know I am hitting it 1 frame before the ground without 20XX?

    Pichu Neutral Game

    I get that frame advantage on shield is good, but isn't hitting an aerial exactly 1 frame from the ground pretty hard to do consistently? But yeah, pichu has great tomahawks and I always try to space aerials to avoid grabs.

    Pichu Neutral Game

    No, I haven't been able to hit tournaments for a while, so I have just been grinding tech skill and trying to hit the lab to try to find utility for each of pichu's moves. So please bare in mind that my speculations right now have little experience to go with them.

    Pichu Neutral Game

    Yeah, I forgot to mention attacks can be another option besides jumping. But I just put the long rant to explain a good use of jolt but it really should be used sparingly as a mix-up because it is not a great move but rather another tool in pichu's moveset.
