Marth seems to just too often require 2 outplays in order to get a solid opening against Falco. The first being the positional outplay by closing the distance to where Falco cannot safely get out a laser, and the second being the correct timing and placement of an aerial or grab despite the...

@Dr Peepee Thanks so much for the reply! We haven't chatted in a while Kevin, when can we set something up? :) With regard to Fox's platform game. Fox doesn't have to react to where Marth attacks from as much as he just wants to be holding down/shielding whenever Marth jumps. Until mid-high...

@#SplitsOnTrees My bad, I meant CC grab. Marth stops getting those around that percent b/c he's pushed too far back. @FE_Hector : Marth is only able to edgeguard fox's sweetspot illusion on a hard read, and if fox instead f-b's onto the stage, Marth has just traded his edgeguard for being on...

Posted this on Reddit in the ask summit players questions thread, but I don't think anyone saw it: I have some concerns about the Fox vs Marth matchup that led me to believe that matchup is heavily skewed in Fox's favor.I'd love it if any of you could chime in and help solve some of the riddles...

How will seeding be done for brackets then?

Armada, I hope you will understand that entering the next 3 major tournaments would be a HUGE contribution to the melee community, and generate so much more hype. You could help ensure another golden age of melee and help the community as a whole prosper. Please take this into consideration...

Mew2king vs Armada would've been extremely close.

I think at this point everyone in this thread wants to watch friendlies of your marth vs top players in all the high-top tier matchups PP. Plz do us a favor and get these things done and recorded for the rest of us! (Oh yeah and do marth v axe pika too plz!)

He does on landing iirc. Someone test this my memory might be lying to me I guess.

It's not nair. It's just when pikachu is landing she crouches low enough to avoid marth's grab hitbox. Then she is actionable and just dodges or runs away or does a quick move or something. It's similar to jiggs.

yeah when you nair her at early percents and try to dash in and jc grab it misses. I might be wrong with nair, but I don't think I explained my reasoning about it very well either :\ @tai yeah I feel somehow that dtilt is less safe against falcon b/c of his large nair and meaty fair. I'm a lot...

marth v pikachu seems to be a very difficult matchup to learn for marth for many reasons: Marth's Issues lack of meaty moves+pikachu's 2 frame tech inability to cover himself from uair and nair from below lack of followups given good DI from pikachu inability to punish pikachu's recovery...

nope you permabanned me when i had no idea about that rule, but that's not the point. and nope you probably aren't better than me but who cares when we both suck anyways right?

lol Strongbad, I'm glad the guy who banned me on Smashmods thinks that Ike's recovery takes a lot of skill after 5 hours of practice. Yup.

only 2 marth v fox :(
