    I want to main Wolf

    Hey man, glad to hear you're interested in Wolf, he's an amazing character and in my opinion one of the most entertaining designs in PM. But heres the deal with Wolf. And like... every character. They all are super in depth. Like, incredibly in depth. Asking for us to give you "the basics"...

    The Waffle House (Video Thread)

    that might be the most autopilot captain falcon I've seen in a long time. I'll try to write up more on what I saw tomorrow, but tldr: dude played mindlessly, you could have stuffed most of his senseless approaches with spaced bairs til he respected your space. Shielding more would have been good...

    Wolf Matchup Thread

    wouldn't CC fsmash force a knockdown in that situation? Also, Softie was mentioning in the Skype group that you can hit crouching kirbys with lazer if you just shoot them later, farm from impossible and worth putting the effort into if you're having difficulty in the matchup.

    This Week In PM: A new series focusing on the many different PM competitive communities and players

    Unfortunately I have to take a pretty big step back away from Smash in general right now, and I apologize for the infrequency of the videos. I really wanted to make this a resource available to everyone. Hopefully someone can pick up where I left off and help provide for the community.

    Some Problems with Wolf's Laser and shine

    hey buddy, CC and SDI are two entirely different things. I'm worried that you might be thinking they are the same or in some way similar concepts

    Wolf Matchup Thread

    Long story short, Snakes not that good at approaching, has pretty damn good OOS options, grenades make it a ***** to bring the fight to him, and he can live forever if you let him. First thing on that list, Snake has a weakness of not having great approach options. His Dacus is amazing, but if...

    3.6 Wolf Changes

    It is -4/-5 on shield, but we still have shine to cover that up. If you try to nair --> slow option, you run the risk of getting beat with an OOS option, but nair shine is still reliable, unless someone is godly at frame perfect shield grab. It might not be "free" shield pressure, but its like...

    3.6 Wolf Changes

    What I'm getting at is that if you try to do something like rising full hop dair, it won't work against smart players. Hell even dumb players can accidentally get out of it. Playing a snake the other day, I shine-- full hop dair to catch his di, and before I can get back down he's up-b'd out. It...

    3.6 Wolf Changes

    Wolf's kinda all about masking your approach anyway. He's not like fox/falco where he can yolo nair/dair and expect it to at least trade. You should expect to get stuffed if you're not covering your approach with dash dance/lazer etc. Thats just kinda the **** we wolf mains put up with, having...

    3.6 Wolf Changes

    Anti air is great, but it seems like everyone seems to forget this about shine. The move does 5%, and then less after staling. If you can shine, run and then shine again, you're gonna get 9-10% damage. Dash attack (I believe) does 9% on its own. Hitting multiple shines is great, but you have got...

    The Waffle House (Video Thread)

    Yo I was actually looking for wolf gameplay last night and came across your video before you even posted it here lol. I have some thoughts on it, probably not gonna be organized well but I'll throw down what I think is going on. Don't be offended on how I word these things, its meant as...

    Having trouble with Wolf vs Marth matchup.

    uuuuhhh I gotta be careful how I put this... Shortens are waaaay more than just cancelling a missed flash. Getting your shortens down opens up more possibilities for side b follow ups at closer ranges, sweet spotting the ledge from different distances allowing for onstage mixups, preventing...
