I think Yoshi's largest strength comes from his inconsistencies, similar to what's being mentioned just above this post. I don't think I'll ever switch because IMO, being able to switch it up constantly is how you remain on the top. Characters that are execution based get downloaded, and from...

While I agree with your last statement, it's also worth noting that Ally falling into the traps of a relatively new character at the time is different than Ally getting hit after learning what the character can do. Ally seems a lot more solid on the OoS options against Corrin in the ESAM...

So does this mean just ledge, or does this work on platforms? Still working on the timing on Wii U.

Skitrel says it best, but I'll try and add some things that aren't quite on the list. The best way to play mind games is to influence how your opponent thinks. For example, everyone facing a Corrin knows how strong F Smash is. Use it once or twice when you know the opponent will dodge it to see...

Nair does, but there are slots open. You'd be surprised how a bit of practice gets you decent timing, Fair is faster than you think. DL Hop over lloid isn't quite as consistent as you'd think. As my partner gets more practice, and I get more reckless, I've found I'm getting him more. It does...

I practice with a Villager main, and the only hard part is beating out Ledge Camping. Remember that Charge Shot cancels Lloid, as well as lunging, Fair beats out Slingshots, Nothing beats Turnips unless you get only the tip on your upair, and if you get hit by the tree, the combination is Start...

Besides the ability to instant jump from parallel to above the platform, platforms help with Fair strings, increase counter's strength, give options for recovering that doesn't involve sweetspotting the ledge vs amazing edgeguarding characters like Sheik, Villager and ZSS. There's also DL...

Best in the game is really subjective, as how do you quantify the best? It's unique in that it's guaranteed to kill off the top, which is arguably the hardest direction to recover from, but Witch Time is more punishing in some situations, and depending on the character (like Falcon or Dorf)...

Trying her out instead of Cloud. Cloud has a ton of potential, and I may go back, but for now, her mobility and strings are a little nicer.

Have you ever had the weird desire to throw in Brawl Marth with moves featuring Diddy Kong and ZSS? Do you love when no one has any ****ing clue what you're going to do because everyone forgot your character was in the game? Do you like mid-air grabs, a kick-ass Nair, and all the potential...

Fair is still fine if you're hitting with the edge within the auto-cancel range. It hits shield harder, and has a slightly longer range. I use it as a mix-up, and it's not 100% safe, but it's safe more often than I expect.

EDIT: Said better by Yikarur no point having multiple people say the same thing.

ah yes, everything your opponent does seems lagless when you start your attack 5 frames later than them. (in case you're curious, no attack cloud has is earlier than frame 5 with the exception of frame 4 Jab, which is identical to Bowser Jrs. Jab. http://kuroganehammer.com/Smash4/Cloud ) Cloud...

I mean, I'm out by West Chester. There aren't a ton of us out here either, and an hour drive seems like a long haul, but let me know if you're interested
