Interesting. Looks like a good way to reposition to threaten landings. That said, there seems to be a period of commitment between the start of the slide and when you can act. Does anyone have a frame count for PW versus PP versus a single dash step (return to standing)?

Practice. Practice. AAAANNNDDDD Practice. Hypothetically it should be offline and against opponents who can pressure and punish but won't invalidate all spacing attempts. Clearly, you'll want to toy around a bit to know what is/isn't a tipper before hand so you'll know if you're...

Bit late, and probably won't spend much time. But is there room for one more?

1) Yes, by local scene is dominated by Yoshis...and each one is slowly moving onto other characters (myself included). There's a mixed opinion on how much our character is at fault, but there is a definite migration in progress. 2) Alternated between switching characters and coming back. Also...

I'd wager it's worse than that. Back in the early days when everyone thought Yoshi was "SS tier" we had alot of players playing Yoshi and more recently we've seen Esam (as a secondary) and others try and pick him up. It's not just that good players did some collective mistaken analysis and...

I'm not so sure, Marth at least doesn't tend to care for projectile spam, and I'd say Pac's projectiles are just as threatening as Yoshi's. AFAIK, Diddy and Link are often considered bad matchups. DDD and ZSS are also bad for other reasons. I'm not as sure how to deal with Cloud. I've been on...

Somehow I've missed this. Curious what it is exactly--and by that I mean what actually gets talked about. Well, no better way to find out than join. Invite?

Is this trip only on Ness dtilt/Diddy Banana, etc? Or are there other ways to enter the trip state?

And this sums up the Marth/Cloud MU too. Cloud's got better range, is (significantly) faster and has as good or better frame data on his key attacks and is stronger attack for attack. Plus, Cloud can camp all day and projectile spam all day to force approaches. The shield weakness will hold...

Nah, brave sword. 1/2 frames on all attacks so we can "attack twice in the time of one round"

I'm on my way out and only here for a couple weeks, but does anyone want to play friendlies with someone from out of town who's slightly above mediocre? I'm in the Kemah/League City area. I remember seeing a Galveston thread a couple years ago. Did that die?

Welcome to Texas. Protip: Texas is a big state--the largest in the Continental US. Houston's a big city. The 3rd or 4th largest by population but relatively low in density (it's really spread out). Texans usually state where they are in the state and which neighborhood you are in in Houston...

Definitely a loss. I was looking at Marth-Yoshi for a while. This one's got all the problems but Cloud has a far less stressful time killing off whatever than Marth does. I also suspect he's faster, has longer reach and doesn't suffer at projectiles like Marth does, does anyone have up-to-date...

This is a poor matchup for us. Falcon's fast and he outranges us. We're marginally faster in attack speed, but not by enough to matter much and our endlag is consistently worse so we poke less reliably too. Falcon is good at juggling us with Uair and Fair forms a 50/50 that ends in our demise...

Squirtle... :'(
