If you don't have a good oos option, or good mobility, you are susceptible to some awful matchups in ultimate. Characters that can land in your shield and bully the back of your shield safely makes you unable to play the game. Before, if Diddy (or Rob or Pika) dtilted your shield, you could...

Note that hero's 30% projectiles do not lose to shield. You've wasted some of hero's meter and taken shield damage, but you haven't directly punished him. And some of these projectiles he's probably + on block. And anyone who's been hit by sizzle in neutral can tell you that is not easily...

It's easy to play Isabelle if you have defensive fundamentals (understand projectiles, can anti-air, and run/walk-back ftilt/fsmash); rod whiff punishes buttons and catches landings, full hop nair stuffs jumps, she is able to edgeguard, and the lloid trap is something you can play around if you...

Notes on the Joker (/Leo) matchup: - The longer you stay on the angel platform, the less invincibility you have on the ground. Leaving the platform immediately allows you to have 120f of invincibility, whereas if you wait the entire time you only have 60f of invincibility. Some of this will be...

Big D plays melee ICs Edit: April fools, he played Brawl ICs.

How long does Maister have to win tournaments consistently for it to be considered long term? He's been doing this since day 1.

This is false. Dash attack is a combo starter, landing FAir leads to things, rising down air, falling up air, ftilt>grab, and uptilt is a combo starter. Squirtle has trouble doing meaningful damage in air>air situations outside of hitting up air>combo due to his low damage/hit, but his...

What I expected to read was upsmash, but dash attack is also a good choice. Both of these moves, on most characters, are committal options that can get hard punished, but Wolf is allowed to challenge shield pressure with upsmash oos or try to burst forward with dash attack with less fear of...

Reminder that Leo was the player people studied the most in order to deal with Bayo in 4, played Bayo in 4, and has some of the best SDI vs Bayonetta's moves still.

Pokepen is relatively new to playing a zoner, he played Bayo/Rosa/non-zoners in 4 and is also young, whereas vermanubis has dealt with zoners for years. Konga has played vs Magister's villager for two years now, and the player matchup is very skewed. Defensive/chip damage play will generally...
