Obviously Mewtwo. Have you seen what he can do in the TV show with only his mind? Next would be Samus.

Anyone here from the Illinois side of the river? I play online a lot but don't really have anyone to play with locally.

Well, the title of the thread currently says Yoshi, but no one is talking about Yoshi, hence my confusion.

I thought you guys were discussing the Yoshi matchup.

@Jtails, Great video, once again. I've watched some of your competitive guides for different characters and I really appreciate how you give back to the community in this way. This Yoshi video was jam-packed with useful info, and I learned a thing or two. I didn't realize jab combos into grab...

Bair isn't bad, you just have to use it right. It's main use is against aerial characters, not characters on the ground. It has many of stage uses: I've gotten soft spikes and stage spikes with it, it throws out a lingering hitbox which allows you to fake out people and punish when they air...

Well you started out 4 for 4 landing your ground pounds. I believe you're not overusing something if it is consistently landing. With that said, you got way too over-reliant on it and ended the match landing only 5 of 13. That's all right. We're all working on something. I'm trying to roll less.

Represent us well, Regralht. Remember: Don't get hit.

How do we get matchup info from tourney players if tourney players never use certain characters? That's true for this game and especially true for Brawl and Melee, which had much worse balance. Even through friendlies, we can only see a character's true potential if someone is willing to put in...

I'll give you stages and lag, but stock count? I can do the same things against my opponent whether we're in a 1 stock match or a 100 stock match.

And I would like to add to that, 100% of the time you see a Yoshi use egg roll off stage, it was an input error. :)

Not wi-fi in Brawl. Certainly not. Not sure what grudge you hold against For Glory. My only complaint is the lack of stage variety. No, we can't use laggy matches or players that aren't very good as serious data, but on the contrary it's usually smooth and often has pretty decent competitors. I...

I think personal experience should count for something. Tournament matches don't have to be the be-all and end-all. Just my opinion. I'm not even seeing much Yoshi in tournament matches at all. Based on that figure should we assume that Yoshi is no good? Obviously not. People just don't want to...

Most Yoshi pros don't seem to use egg roll. I understand why, as it is highly punishable, but I throw it out every once in a while. I use it when my opponent is already vulnerable, such as when they are landing on the stage. If you use it rarely, it can catch the opponent off guard and I find...

Hit the Fair from above for the spike. I think I read it in one of the in game tips, not to mention my experience backs it up.
