    Guide Taj's Character Match-Up Discussion

    I may resurrect this thread. I have some new ideas with the Jigglypuff matchup I want to explore if I come back to this game. :P

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    Spaced anything is generally safe on shield against most characters. Mewtwo doesn't really have anything that he can do on top of someone's shield that he can link with something else to avoid getting shield grabbed like most characters with some kind of SHFFL'd aerial into jab or whatever...

    Taj is the best Mewtwo (Ask Taj Stuff Thread)

    The green Mewtwo is Dark Dragoon and not me, by the way. I only play for the first couple of matches as the neutral Mewtwo.

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    I always feel like nametags help people focus and narrow in on you when you teleport and air dodge. I tend to not like it with Mewtwo, but other characters it's probably okay. I can still improve with Mewtwo to some degree, I'm not a perfect human being. There are people that can probably...

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    Well, in doubles. Mewtwo is basically a poor man's Peach. He can't KO as well, he has less priority, and pretty poor presence. He can split, interrupt, be annoying, and be a stock holder like Peach though. Things you should continue to do: Keep looking to break up 1v2s, even though Mewtwo...

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    Thanks man. Well, most of the feedback I got from anytime I've played Mewtwo from Apex and the week prior was that I was doing everything wrong and my playstyle pissed at least one person off. People liked the way KDJ played Mewtwo more than the way I played because he made more use of his new...

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    Post Apex semi drunken reflections- Part 1 (I'm allowed to John a little, right?) I'm sorry to anyone that was hoping to see me play at Apex. I haven't been taking Melee very seriously for about 6 years now. I never made a formal retirement post, but I've pretty much been done with trying to...

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    @Uncivilized Elk, 1. If you hold your shield while you waveland off of a platform you will go into an auto tumble iirc. 2. Do half circles with your control stick. You want to start your initial dash, but immediately roll your stick in the opposite direction (touching all corners) until it...

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    I'm really not sure what advice I'd give to Mewtwo players nowadays. I probably wouldn't try to give any advice, because I feel like it would make things worse. My bad advice would be, to be realistic with your expectations. You can play what you want, as long as you understand and you're...

    Taj is the best Mewtwo (Ask Taj Stuff Thread)

    Mewtwo can punish small things, but the margin is a lot less forgiving. Often times, you'll even need to just make calls to punish them. Sometimes it takes a preemptive wavedash or an air tight pivot to get the punish. Most of the time, you're not going to get the same opportunities that Marth...

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    Mewtwo has slow tech recovery. He gets owned kinda hard from shines in center stage. If he goes off stage from the shine, it's a bit better.

    Important Carefully Ask PPMD about the Tiara Guy

    Yeah, I feel like up throw doesn't give me as good of a return as cornering or forcing off stage. It could be my own limitations in my perception, or Tai's lack of ability to punish correctly, but I don't think up throw should be the primary option against the floaties. I think up throw is...

    Q&A Mewtwo Philosophy - Q&A Ask Away

    You have to get in a certain space where you can wd down tilt or grab and he can't react to your approach easily. You also want to try to invade that space using baby shadowballs and check his reactions with WD or dash shields.
