Yeah, this makes me so sad. FG was far from perfect, but it let me get into matches that at the very least I could hone skill and matchup knowledge off of. I'm not wanting to put time into online now if it's a crapshoot on whether I can actually get a ruleset that's even remotely close to what...

I totally agree, and to add to this: Don't try to punish up-smash unless it hits your shield/powershield, or you know the player will tend to hold shield afterwards. It recovers faster than you think, and if your opponent decides to go for a down-tilt, it'll probably beat out whatever option you...

So does ZSS have any way of punishing Peach's Fair? Is it even punishable if spaced correctly? That move hits so freaking hard, but I've never found a reliable punish window.

That's entirely possible, she has way easier of a time killing than Sheik does. Sheik is still a really solid character though, I think maybe they'd be tied for top tier.

No, it's not just you. This is stuff that takes time and practice to get used to. You have to conscious of how fast you're pressing the jump button, or you will full hop by accident. It did take me a bit to get an idea of how to move around with her, but you'll get it. Get a training dummy...

Yup, paralyzer has its uses against Mario, but use it sparingly. Get used to the Mario tornado's range, you should be able to guess where it's gonna land once you get used to the match-up, and it can be downsmash punished pretty easily if you know he's gonna whiff. You can beat a lot of his...

All of them! If it's a friendly taunt at the beginning I use side or down taunt. But if I SD early and my opponent taunts, and I bring it back?? You can bet that up taunt is coming out for sure! "Is that all?"

ZSS would probably be top 3 if she didn't have a tether grab, she still doesn't have the absurd frame data that sheik has after all. Tether grabs give you some cool abilities that an up-close grab doesn't give, but the downside is that her grab comes out in 13 frames instead of the typical 6-7...

EVERYTHING you just said is untrue, from the ideas behind her metagame to the percentage values. I just went in and checked damage percetages, comparing an pre-patch 3DS and a post patch WiiU, no damage values have been changed that I was able to notice. ZSS remains the same.

Fully charged paralyzer (neutral B laser) into into up-B is a nice safe way of trying to get a kill, but in general, moves that will kill with zero suit at lower percents are: Up-B, down-b (pressed twice to get the flip jump kick), forward-smash, and back air Higher percent kill moves are...

Paralyzer (offstage hit) into flip jump is such a satisfying move to land

I actually just yesterday realized that you can change the trajectory of your up special by holding either left or right as you do the move, which makes it more likely to get the final hit if you start it off with bad spacing (or more likely to miss if you hold the wrong direction). I'm sure I...

That video was fantastic, I'd take a super in depth analysis that thoroughly explains every option available, than some dumb short video that half-explains a fraction of the options available any day. I hope you keep the same format going forward, these videos are obviously aimed at people who...

I haven't, I've been using the new gamecube smash controller that came with the bundle. Now that I've been looking out for it more, I've noticed it only happens in laggy matches, so I'm fairly sure the controller isn't the issue.

If I had to guess, that's likely it more than anything else. Damn lag =/
