i hate google video you should have uploaded them to youtube but im going to watch them im going to edit this post when i watch them

 

[pwndj00n00b]

I tried youtube and when they were almost done it said it couldnt upload them because a firewall or something.

 

[Elrodillazo]

you have an awesome samus it sees you have mastered her and your fox is good but you missed a few l-cancels try to practice that also the roy needs advice but i dont use roy :D also why do you use the down throw with fox use the up throw and follow him with u-airs :D

 

[GoodPancake]

nice SWDs. i like yor samus. fox is ok. roy should use the f+b combo more often, not charge random fsmashes, not jump in with nonlcanceled aerials and even if they r lcancled fox will grab u. yah you probably would do better with marth.

 

[pwndj00n00b]

Thanks for the comments on my samus. My friend Rook has been goin through a hard time of constantly being beat with everyone so those matches were just random ones. He's been playing marth lately and is getting really good, i'll have some vids of his marth up soon.

Well, I'm not so easily impressed by large amounts of super wave dashes. I find you use them randomly and for no real apparant reason other than to look cool and to run away from the fight.

you're the man.

anyways, fun matches to watch. i think your samus would do well to fire off more missiles, especially against a marth who has no way to hit you at long range.

I watched the ones where you were Samus, I enjoyed them. Every Samus has a different style so I can't think of any specific pointers other than keep doing what works for you, and learn from your mistakes.

 

[pwndj00n00b]

Thanks for lookin at em phanna

 

[thatsmybutta]

HAHAHA so funny when his mom called for him

 

[Somebody]

Not a bad samus. The only thing I dont get is the pointless bomb>airdodge>grapple>arial thing. I dont play my samus too flashy and never really do that. Maybe theres something im missing and I look like an idiot but oh well. Anyways the samus wasnt bad.

 

[pwndj00n00b]

Yeah it sucked that my mom called for me but oh well. Oh the reason I do the bomb>airdodge>grapple>attack is because its a technique called the beam cancel and is used as a mind game.

 

[JMSiebach]

i only watched the first three but i'd like to see more.

 

[Clouded Reason]

I watched the 1st of the "edit: from today" videos (because it was the first one where Rook used marth instead of roy). . .

decent combo/mindgame techniques, but a few things. . .
A. It seemed like you had a real hard time edgeguarding. In fact, I'm pretty sure most of his *kills* were just you trying to edgeguard him and not being able to get back with the Up+B screw. Try to find more efficient ways to get back from an edgeguard/spike attempt (like turning around with a missle or shot, air dodging up, then grappling the level).

B. Like a few others said, watch how often you do the super wave dash. Yes, it's flashy, and shows you've messed around in practice long enough to know what you're doing, but it's practicality is average at best, and the worst kind of mindgame is the one your opponent learns to read and punish.

C. It's hard to judge skill without looking at how good your opponent is as well. . . Granted, Rook had a few o.k. moves, but he made a lot of mistakes that match. Enough to make me cringe a few times and not want to watch the rest of the matches based on HIS play, not yours.

D. As a word of encouragement, your samus DOES appear to have some very sweet moves, and I was impressed by your movement and some combos. Keep up the good work!

Roy needs to start doing the dancing blade attack (I forgot what it was called...) and calm down on the grabbing. C-Stick is the only thing I also have to say, too. The Samus player was good, though.
