    Q&A Game Play Advice and General Discussion

    It's safe to say that I don't play Peach correctly, but that doesn't really matter. I can learn the intricacies of the Peach game from her character boards, but right now I'm just trying to figure out the basics of the immediate-defense game. Thanks for your clarification on vectoring! Wasn't...

    Q&A Game Play Advice and General Discussion

    For awhile now, I've been trying to up my smash game, but I've recently noticed a gaping flaw in my play. I don't defend well. I can shield, shield grab, and roll as well as the next pleb, but I don't know when to do it in general, outside of some obvious circumstances (dash attacks for...

    Q&A Ask the Princess: Peach FAQ and Q&A

    Hey Peach Boards! I've been playing smash for a long time, and have decided to take up the seemingly formidable challenge of learning peach. My question is this: I just transitioned to using C-Stick for directional aerials (which is awesome, esp for turnip combos), but a problem arises when I...

    Possible Paralyser tech?

    I don't have a video either, but I've seen the same thing. I've been practicing b reverses a lot, and if I do one super low, so that the shot goes out almost as soon as I hit the ground, the sound for the paralyzer goes away and a moment later, the sound for the shot going off comes out, and...

    Aerial B - Reverses causing mixed results

    So I think we can all agree that b-reversed pistol shots are a necessity for ZSS being slippery. When used on the ground it pretty much consistently makes her do a turn on the spot without sliding. However, when used in the air, usually it causes me to do something akin to a wavebounce...

    Let's make a list of tips for annoying MU's

    I know there is an official MU thread up now, but since it's still getting up and running, here it is. I have been having problems against Ness lately. This may be a personal issue, so feel free to ignore, but I think it has some merit since the guy who won the tourney lost a set to a Ness while...

    Let's make a list of tips for annoying MU's

    Was just fighting a Sonic in For Glory. Lost the first time to his gimmicky nature: his approaches with his rolls, etc. It seems like you can neutral special him out of one of the rolls, but not the other. In either case, he's probably going to roll into you and jump into an up aerial. Easily...

    Let's make a list of tips for annoying MU's

    Another thing I forgot is that when using Fsmash against Greninja, for some reason the second hit of Fsmash doesn't always connect because of his low posture. Someone should do some testing, because sometimes it landed and sometimes it just whiffed over him. Also, your laser doesn't hit his...

    Let's make a list of tips for annoying MU's

    One thing to note is that on lighter characters (Kirby, Jigglez, etc.) can be hard to KO because of their tendency to be knocked out of our up special. Only way I've come across to solve this is to save Fsmash for a finisher, though they tend to be slippery, so be careful. Down special's kick is...

    Imbalance of Themed Final Destinations?

    Not as much me complaining. For instance, I assume we'll be able to choose between them playing locally on our console. This could provide a little (though not much more) variety in FD locally. Now in Glory Mode, idk as much. I still think that online will be a terrible place to practice...

    Imbalance of Themed Final Destinations?

    I noticed in the Nintendo Direct, The different Final Destinations seemed to have different shapes. For instance, the "standard" one with a planet in back that changes background seems to be more "Traditional" in that it is slightly trapezoidal with the left and right edges curving in as you go...

    Dead, are we?

    That's sad to hear... My best guess is that it's been nearly five years since Olimar and all his weird ways graced us with his presence. With the new release of SSB4 about to come up (On a side note, Wii Fit Trainer? FML), people are starting to either get bored/stop seeing the point of playing...

    Dead, are we?

    Hey, I've decided to pick up Olimar. I've been playing brawl against only friends (Half of them could beat a level 3 CPU) and against level 9 CPU's. I know this isn't ideal, and it means that I'm used to battling rather static (actually, completely static) playstyles, and I haven't been getting...
