Cool idea. I haven't tried this vs. Marth, but I've been starting to do this more and more against Falcon. I think you can reliably react to his nair animation and it generally leads to a pretty hard punish. Marth's nair seems like it would be pretty difficult to react to but I'll definitely...

Thanks, nice set! Also, I'll probably end up going to most xanadu Wednesdays so I hope to see you there. I might be able to come up to PA/NJ sometime over the summer too.

Yeah, I probably was giving up too much stage / didn't force him into tough positions at all. Thanks a ton for the tips!

Thank you so much!! Lots of great ideas here that I'll use next time. I think I remember trying to stay grounded as much as possible, because I've found that usually works best when I'm caught off-guard. I guess that was the wrong mentality this time. And yes, the set actually was recorded...

Hey guys, I played a doc player (Velocity) for the first time in tournament the other day with yoshi and lost pretty badly. He would keep approaching with pill->aerial. This really tripped me up, because when I parried the pill, I would just get hit with the aerial, resulting in a big punish...

Good stuff man! Was anything recorded? I'd love to see some of your sets!

Sup Yoshis, It's really cool to see the new (at least for me) sheik port priority info being posted. Keep up the great work everyone! How do you guys feel about the puff MU? I really struggle against characters I can't get big punishes on like Peach and Puff, but I feel like the general...

Yes, SG is my roommate and I'd rather not comment on our xanadu set haha. Thanks though guys!

Hey guys! I’d really like to ask about everyone’s thought process when you are forced to recover low against Fox. Sure, when a Fox who’s inexperienced in the MU tries to edgeguard, they usually go off stage and try to hit you with a shine/bair. But my roommate has started to just charge...

So I got to do a little bit of testing with yoshi's marth killer today. Good news: the nair edgeguard I mentioned is possible with most of marth's up-b recovery heights: youtube. com/watch?v=GOxptKuunu4 Bad news: marth can sweetspot the edge under yoshi's egg (unless i'm doing something wrong...

I'm almost positive most characters face toward the stage and hold toward the ledge too. Alternatively, in situations where you're at the ledge but can't quite turn around in time, you can still shield DI towards the ledge and do a quick move (sheik fair for example) as soon as you fall off to...

Thanks so much! This is super helpful and just what I was looking for. I'll definitely keep these tips in mind the next chance I get to play Samus. I never would've thought to use a d-air crossup on Samus! I really appreciate all the help guys.

Yeah, that's what I thought @Purpletuce, I don't pay any attention for the most part; I just kept hearing about the fabled "tipper down-b" and thought it might actually exist haha. Also, thanks for the advice!

Hey Yoshi boards! I’m a yoshi player from Maryland and I’ve been meaning to post here for a while. First off, I just wanted to say thanks for the awesome info thread @PerhapsMan! It’s super informative! Secondly, I wanted to ask about yoshi’s down-B. I’ve heard several commentators say that...
