Watch how Chudat operates. You don't punish your Snake friend, and thus he isn't worried about approaching. When he's at high percents, you are still playing as if he's at low percent. You instead should just wait for a mistake and capitalize with a kill move. Plus, Kirby can get a free 50% or so damage on Snake at the start of a match if you do his combo flawlessly.

PS: You should probably go to the Kirby board for actual help. ^_~

Btw that combo isnt guaranteed. U smash DI away from teh uair and he cant follow up. Also snake can just pull out a grenade.

Yeah... Do go to the kirby boards, but since I main both kirby and Snake I can help.

You aren't punishing enough, and aerial hammer is your best kill move. Second hit is best offstage, because it is at a harsh angle for recovering.

Dthrow tech chases rule.

first match you made a few obvious mistakes, you used a Uthrow when he was at low percents, when a Fthrow to Uair's should of been performed. Kirby should keep snake in the air, and punish with his Foward B. I mean it's been said already but i'll say it again. "kirbys Hammer is his best kill move"

With how much he/she was running into the grenades themselves, there wasn't a need to cook them.

1. Stop running into that Snake's grenades.
2. You're lucky he's bad with C4, and mediocre at stage control.
3. He knows his ****, so you're going to have a hard time with this matchup. (Kirby has slight problems killing, Snake has a really easy time killing Kirby due to weight. (92% at FD = you're dead without proper DI)

Stop being super aggro, try to get his ability, use grenades against him, less of what you know (bair approaches, fair approaches) because you just get shield grabbed.

Space better, watch explosives more attentively, and get a hold of grenades. Then you'll do better.

Nope, I don't know. :laugh:

Don't want to take any random guesses either, and to be honest it really doesn't matter who it is, Rapid is just HORRIBLE at the matchup.

I mean, second vid last stock... did she not see that grenade? I saw it a full 4 seconds before it exploded =p and yet she got hit and died from it....

They don't watch for the explosives, the Snake obviously knew that they would:

1. Take the best choice to avoid a tech chase (roll away)
2. Do the opposite (roll behind)

So the Snake player got 2 easy dthrow tech-chases because they knew how she would react, you don't want to take the smart path all the time! If she did a getup attack, they would have hit the Snake.

She tried to have a utilt battle with Snake, sorry... that just doesn't work.

She kept jumping into Snake's nair + you can DI out of that and she didn't.


Way to many mistakes.

//assuming Rapid is a female due to being in a group "Venus Flytrap (The Ladies of Brawl) x]" which is a group for the female smashers =p so... yah..
