Advice for a new challenger??

[jeremy bateman]

Hey Everyone I've been back into melee for a year now but ive only been playing competitively since about April.. my tech skill isn't the greatest and I don't really have great approaches. But i do have some issues . I actually don't own a copy of melee nor do I own my own controller so this post is Me asking people what's the best way for me to train in the little time that I do get to train with my friends. I have wavedashes down and besides a few flubbs here and there I have good l-cancels. I main shiek and falco. If any one has any advice I'm open to it please and thanks

Unusual advice; stay fit. you'll feel more energetic when you play

I don't own Melee either. Luckily, it is better to just play with real people anyways, so I always just play with my friends who own the game, and I provide a PM setup. Having your own controller is important, take good care of it. You can have some handwarmers / tech skill practice every once in a while before and inbetween matches. It definitely helps.

Try and play against humans whenever possible. Practice tech skill and movement when you can't.

All I do is play with people and actually right now my friend let me barrow his melee so I'm practicing movment and l-cs and shiz like that and thanks EPsilon I'll try to keep that in mind
