That first set was a bit rough lol. I think it's most optimal to play really campy against Joker. The character seems to have no hurtbox and the spacing is all off for kicks and OoS compared to others. It's an MU that requires a lot of experience and labbing.

In general, it just looks like you might be slipping a little with Zelda specifically. Based on my experience and watching Mystearica's Zelda slip, I think Zelda is a character that constantly requires lots of practice in order to maintain a high level. I played way too much Sheik these past few weeks and it's been more difficult to fight good players as Zelda, even if I should still be improving as a player.

It sounds like you might have been playing Zelda less that normal, so it probably isn't anything too significant that you are struggling a little. Just make sure to not slack on practice with Zelda too much and you should be fine.

I should clarify that what I mean by slipping, is that your combos and advantage aren't as crisp as they used to be. That's indicative of you not using Zelda as much recently I think. Keep up the practice on them and you should go back to normal.

I also forget to mention that you need to be careful about having forward momentum on while charging Phantom. Make sure your opponent can't hit you while you're doing so. I find it best to do it when you knock your opponent off stage.

You did decent on the second set, so I think it might be a mindset thing with the first. You just need to be incredibly patient in the Joker MU, and I don't think you will very often win by a large margin against a good Joker.
