    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    So all, I've been taking a break bc I've been sick/just trying to enjoy the game after my first tourney. I started grinding practice again and I've noticed now after the tourney, I either didn't adapt very well in the past or my adaptation skills have gone down. It seems that whatever game plan...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    so on the topic of juggling, I actually was told by my friend I really should work on it. He says my general neutral and punish game are developing really well but my juggle game can help push me along even further. How do you get better per say? Just lab different percent ranges? Or should I be...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    Depends on stage position and percent. Laser jab stifles close range approaches from a falco at a frame advantageous state due to how faste and quick jab comes out. The cons to it would be not being powerful, an opponent can crouch cancel it, and being stuck in one spot with a whiff. Laser dash...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    Hey all, Finally played at my first real tournament that was crazy stacked, Full Bloom 5. Going in, I felt my play in the week leading up to the tournament was weak. Despite that, I tried to focus on getting rest, practicing a bit and focusing on what I need to do. The day before the tournament...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    Yea, as you may know the concept of marth is limiting another character's options using range. If he's already wavedashing, you failed to prevent that option from being selectable. Dtilt makes Luigi's and Ic's stop their movement, which is their best attribute. What you want to do is zone a...

    In talking about the ditto, I've been recently struggling with it since I've been revamping neutral. Before I would use aerials to threaten and approach, but now I'm using aerials to zone and catch their approaches. Somehow the ditto seems harder now haha If you're not dash dancing as much, how...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    So right now here is my understanding of Marth's fundamental neutral game (anyone feel free to dissect or correct me): To actually approach and take space I use dtilt to stop grounded movement and I use grab to push away from center into punish game. To defend/punish attacks that don't respect...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    I've been more proactive in watching film and have been reading lots of posts on the internet of how to breakdown the game. One good post I randomly came across showed how PP and Mango played. It may have been lost on me a couple of months ago but it helped me realize how bad oos I am. I am...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    I played against him in tournament back in May, I can at least say he didn't 8 stock me bc he sded once lol. On more important note: I finally broke through against the gatekeeper of my (small) scene. He's been playing for years and while I've beaten his other side characters, I hadn't been able...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    Yea of course, I for sure try and leave most of my stuff addressed to all rather than just one or two individuals here. I used Nvidia shadowplay so no external camera then rendered gif in premiere

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    Yea I've been trying to not just go all in a times for sure but have felt lost in approaching as either I make a misspaced action or the opponent just comes in and wrecks my stuffing lol. Can I get your critique on my play here? I realize I approached poorly in end as I was having trouble like...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    So I think that's been an issue I haven't been addressing much, suing rising fairs and nairs to approach with after a dash back. If you aren't supposed to lead in with fair and nair, how are you threatening your opponent with just grab and dtilt? Like I said in earlier post, I feel lost in how...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    I've had that kind of problem too lately. Understanding what move will work and be effective. In my studies I think nair for sure is good for ground based enemy approaches with a powerful multihit move thats hard to sdi and can be good di mixup from fair. It lasts longer so you can cover more...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    Yea I've been thinking a ton too on over shooting and undershooting. In my practice I realized how badly I truly utilize dash dance in a majority of encounters in the sense that while playing, I won't use the patterns I've practiced with really. Just kind of do whatever dash comes to mind first...

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    Yea, I have seen how much I go down after not consistently prac/playing for two weeks recently. Only started up daily prac again on Sunday but was so frustrated with how I was playing that I tried to blame the game which fed more into my anger. Doesn't help the large amount of money I spent on...
