    Snake Match Up Advice?

    Keep your space and laser camp, attack his shield with safe pressure, combo him but don't over extend and CP bigger stages or wider stages. Smaller stages allow him to gain more stage control with explosions, which give him more opportunity to net grabs and keep you in an up close fight. Snake's...

    Tier List Speculation

    Ah definitely a flub on my end. I figured it was, but I figured I'd ask. Sorry if you felt I was calling you out on the spot, I just have never seen it before, and couldn't replicate it so I wanted to see video evidence to see if I was messing up, which I was. Also I see your point on the...

    Tier List Speculation

    I never said they were unbeatable lol. They are just very detrimental to the limited neutral options DK has in that match-up. A main approach for him is B-air, which if hit by a laser, turns him around and takes that option away (talking about Falco obviously). Dash attack is good as a mix up...

    Tier List Speculation

    Shine is not very hard to hit. You just have to go right above DK. The problem people have with intercepting DK's recovery is that they go straight at it horizontally where as you are supposed to attack it vertically. If the shine comes from straight above DK that's a free shine spike. Honestly...

    Tier List Speculation

    Nope, Bazkip was right. Brawl MK was SS tier at the end. Also while saying you don't like the argument that Hungrybox's results do not reflect Jigg's potential, how can you prove that he isn't an outlier? Like you said Soft and Darc aren't even top 50 but are the second and best third...

    Donkey Kong Video Thread

    Yeah it definitely isn't as guaranteed as U-air, but I was talking about using it comparatively to headbutt not u-air lol. It's superior to headbutt in almost all ways. Besides it hitting the sides, side b isn't really all that much of a useful move, more of a niche move. It serves its purpose...

    Donkey Kong Video Thread

    Why wouldn't you go for d-air rather than headbutt? Edit: @Wet snake your DK isn't bad. A couple things I noticed. - You use Cargo F-throw/B-throw a lot, which is good. I'd recommend using more Cargo U-throw earlier more in sets to condition your opponents for it and to get a feel for their...

    Trying to adapt to PM/Melee

    Practice Melee tech in Melee if you wanna play both Melee/PM. Since the windows are tighter in Melee, it's always easier to go from a tighter input window to a looser input window rather than vice versa. Also, my one friend had this problem, you could adjust how you hold the controller so that...

    Tier List Speculation

    I understand what you mean. Your argument is valid when you say two characters with projectiles one has to approach, but having no projectile versus another character means the further away the more of a disadvantage you are at since the character with the projectile can still threaten the space...

    Tier List Speculation

    I do agree DK is under rated, but I don't know if I would say his neutral options are solid. They definitely aren't bad, encompassing a good dash dance and SHFFL speed is a great thing to have, but lacking a projectile hurts when you are such a big character and you are almost always forced to...

    Why do you think Project M gets a bad rap?

    One reason why you could see PM getting a bad rep is the Smash community in general. For playing under the same franchise, Super Smash Bros, this community is very divided among their respective games. This can lead to the distaste from Melee, Brawl and Smash 4 players to be vocalized, thus you...

    Tier List Speculation

    Yeah, trying to be the aggressor in the Falcon / Bowser match-up as Bowser just calls for bad news. Falcon's dash dance is way too good and extremely difficult for Bowser to handle as is, let alone Bowser trying to offensively pressure that. You just have to play smart and defensive, and corner...

    Tier List Speculation

    Have you ever tried grabbing the ledge after you Up B OOS or after you Up B in general? It helps eliminate the end lag tremendously, in fact I find it essentially in match-ups like that. Plus Bowser's ledge options under 100 aren't terrible, so getting back on stage safely isn't always a...

    Should I change characters against Falco?

    By far I think Falco is DK's worst match-up. In a match-up where DK is forced to approach it's very difficult for him to do so. Honestly counter picking stages with platforms is your best bet. You can move around on those to avoid lasers and try to get in. Getting proficient with power shielding...

    Tier List Speculation

    Yes, I did read that but to my point if you mashed out an u-air then you could have gotten an Up B out and made an attempt for either the platform or the ledge, or forced yourself into a different position. Also, DI'ing off stage isn't always a bad thing it forces a different situation. I don't...
