First advanced technique I learned was L cancelling, then wavedashing. Learning both of those is a good place to start.

Most of Marth's moves are fairly laggy so unless they are spaced correctly you can get a rest oos a lot of the time. When it comes to an aerial Marth, yes his aerials are good and disjointed, but he is also much less mobile than when he is on the ground. Puff is the reverse. He also can't grab...

If you can do it perfectly it is better than wavedashing in terms of frames committed. You also have different options afterwards as cactuar dashing leaves you in dash and wavedashing leaves you in stand.

Being able to pull off tech fine solo but not against other players is something everybody struggles with. Unfortunately there is no real alternative to just practicing and playing more. You will find that overtime this problem will diminish. In short don't worry too much about it, keep...

Check out Kira's guide on SSBM Tutorials https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSEcRDiOSqk It should should answer a lot of your general questions.

If you full hop like that it should be easy to react to considering you are already in their threat zone and Marth's full hop takes a long time. Adding to that is that generally Marth wants to be below not above as his down air is not that great coming down, especially compared to his other...

In that particular instance you actually could have hit him with a forward smash, down smash, shine etc after he hit you due to low hitstun. You also could have reached the ledge before Marth could have dolphin slashed like that. If you suspect that Marth is going to early up b instead of going...

You have a timestamp but seem to have forgotten the video.

Samus has an extremely strong crouch cancel game so careless nair approaches will mess you up. At low to fairly high percents (not sure what off the top of my head) you will be much better of trying to approach with dair instead to negate crouch cancel. You can follow up with a waveshine into up...

Other people have already covered the lightshield problem so I'll just talk about the secondary choice. If you are just picking up a secondary so you can have a change of pace, then it doesn't matter whether or not the character is viable. If you are planning on having a secondary for tournament...

Because it would divide an already small tournament scene and make life hell for the T.Os if they had to run 4 or 5 tournaments simultaneously. Tier lists are made to gauge viability not enforce tournament rules.

When it comes to difference in techskill between solo training and games against players I too have experienced this and expect that most everyone has. Firstly I would tell you not to worry too much about it. This problem will fade with time as you practice and play against others more. Secondly...

On the issue of being comfortable in a tournament setting, if you keep waiting to feel comfortable you will probably just keep delaying it for a long time. The best way to become comfortable it to just do it. As for having a secondary between Samus and Falcon I would say Samus, if for no other...

I forget who said this. "You know... you don't have to approach"
