    Sheik Matchup

    I think you overstate the impact that Ganon's chaingrab has on this matchup. Sheik has all the tools to avoid getting grabbed - low sprint / DA animations, a versatile crouch, and a projectile that forces Ganon to approach on her terms. A competent Sheik player will simply not be getting grabbed...

    Floating to the Top v3.6: The Ganondorf Match Up Thread

    Diddy, Fox, and Roy win against Ganon due to their ability to play non-committal in neutral and punish him much harder and more consistently than he does to them (barring a grab on Ganon's end). Samus, on the other hand, is widely considered to lose against Ganon because of the ease with which...

    Showcase of Power v3.6: The Ganondorf Video Thread

    Thank you so much for the response. Regarding my approaches, I tend to attack with a certain rhythm rather than acting according to the opponent. If you watch some of my older videos you'll see I've gotten a lot better about that, but I still don't let the person I'm playing against make their...

    Showcase of Power v3.6: The Ganondorf Video Thread

    Nevermind (Ganon) vs. Stingers (Peach) I'm pretty inexperienced in the Peach matchup, so any advice would be very much appreciated. I know I miss-spaced a fair few attacks and overextended on my juggles, but outside of that what could you guys tell me? I'm especially stumped as to how to deal...

    Blast Processing Cinemax: Sonic Video Thread/Critique thread

    Not new, but the first video is against a high-level player and the second is against a typical round-one opponent. Vs. Drugged Fox: The neutral game in this match is pretty cool. Karma starts the game off by rushing DF down and establishing the threat of Sonic's speed. After the first bit of...

    Showcase of Power v3.6: The Ganondorf Video Thread

    Sorry for the ultra-late response - I have family visiting... :[ Sorry if I came off as condescending. I mentioned each mistake you made, even the dumb ones that don't necessarily speak to your skill, because verbalizing the concepts involved works to cement them in both my mind and yours. As...

    Showcase of Power v3.6: The Ganondorf Video Thread

    That's a downgrade. @Bazkip Here's a critique of your first game against Holy. Hope it helps in some way! :P 0:04 / Against faster characters, it's necessary to consciously cover a rushdown as soon as the game starts (my training partner plays Sonic, so she's burned me that way a looot). Drop...

    Sonic Matchup Discussion. General

    This matchup is naturally a bit more complex than "bait move => punish move." The most threatening tool that Ganon has in neutral is N-Air, due to its lack of endlag and your inability to challenge its hitboxes (they aren't great, but yours are worse). Ganon can use this to eat up space...

    Ganon Strategies and Gameplay Discussion.

    So, assuming I'm adding everything up correctly, it seems that auto-cancelling down-air is two frames faster than l-cancelling it. If the information in the frame data thread is correct, Ganon spends 5 frames in jumpsquat, 33 frames in a non-ff short hop, and 5 frames in the auto-cancel...

    [Feb 21, 2015] Matthews Smashers "Crazier 8" Tournament (Matthews/Charlotte, NC)

    lol Yoshi's was as much my fault as yours for not knowing the correct stagelist, but don't pretend that we gentleman'd there. And me and Jess don't practice that stage while you clearly do, so don't pretend it wasn't a relevant factor, either.

    [Feb 21, 2015] Matthews Smashers "Crazier 8" Tournament (Matthews/Charlotte, NC)

    You got the same placing as me without having to beat anyone of note. I got to where I did by beating Jess, at least. The seeding was fine. Also Yoshi's Brawl was banned... =[

    [Feb 21, 2015] Matthews Smashers "Crazier 8" Tournament (Matthews/Charlotte, NC)

    Uh, woops lol. And my objection to your post was based on my attitude towards playing good players early in the bracket - I play to win, and if I'm gonna win I'll have to play the best players eventually anyway. No point in being frustrated, then. Btw, I'll take non-buster Jess over literally...

    [Feb 21, 2015] Matthews Smashers "Crazier 8" Tournament (Matthews/Charlotte, NC)

    That's weak. You would've had to play Jess anyway, so that would've hardly been an easier bracket. And here you go.

    Floating to the Top v3.6: The Ganondorf Match Up Thread

    Late, but I figure the information is still useful. In neutral, Sonic handles something like a faster Falcon with more movement options that doesn't have the luxury of an amazing nair. What that means is that he has literally no means of getting in unless you give it to him. Don't give it to...
