bernard, when I see you in a bit, we can watch the vids and I'll point out everything I can...though I already told you what to do...
edit:
So game 1:
- you keep trying to attack from directly above in game 1, then eat a u-tilt/u-air and a combo.
- When you DD, you loosely get hit a lot. Try running in and shielding, then doing a shine oos. I don't feel like pointing out all the times because there are so many.
- 0:45, you were DDing close to david and he came down with a f-air from pretty high, and you didn't do anything to punish. That could've potentially been 70% right there with a d-air -> shine -> etc.
- 0:50, you CC'd the jab and didn't d-tilt him. That could've been 30% right there. Still, he tried to grab when you jumped, and you didn't d-air -> shine -> etc. You hit him with a b-air and you could've followed up with n-air instead of jabbing.
- 1:02, you rushed out and missed a gimp...it would've been worse if you didn't miss that badly because you probably would've gotten hit for jumping out like that. Take your time and take the ledge when you can. Her crappy air mobility won't let her get away.
- 1:08, he threw out another random f-tilt while you were dashing. That was a free n-air for you.
- A lot of times you got right under david, but you didn't u-tilt/u-air/u-smash. Making him go above you should be one of the most important things you should be looking for. Examples so far are 0:43, where you jump right into a b-air. 1:31, you did a d-air while he was on the platfrom.
- After 1:33, you run right into a u-tilt...following that, you CC a lot of jabs. I saw you miss the shine, but you should've had gotten some kind of punish because he kept jabbing. **** happens though.
- 1:37, you got hit by a f-air -> f-tilt. Didn't CC any of them, or shield the f-tilt.
- Stock 3, you CC a lot of stuff, but never punished anything.
- on the same stock, you did d-air from the ledge twice when he was pretty far away. Not a good idea.
- 2:59, you should've n-air'd from the throw on the top platfrom. That u-tilt would've worked after.
- 3:16, that was another d-air -> grab -> etc, instead of b-air. Potential 70% again.
- Afterwards, it feels like you're desperate to run away from david as he puts pressure. You get back onto the stage somehow at 110% or something, then you were shielding at the ledge. David was above you and you could've WD oos and hit him with something as he was landing when he was moving away with a b-air. Instead you jumped and tried to d-air him while he was still in the air and got b-air'd.
Anyways, game 2:
- stock 1, I don't really see much but you're dropping a lot of combos. Mistakes w/e.
- 4:44, he threw out a random f-tilt, but you ran away. You could've gotten a d-air -> shine -> etc. 70% combo. 4:48, you didn't punish the dash attack with d-air -> shine -> etc.
- 4:50, he accidently did an f-smash and you CC'd it and didn't punish it with anything.
- Between 4:44 - 4:54, you ran into 3 f-tilts I think. Be careful.
- 5:08, david throws out a d-air randomly which screamed "free hit!". You ran away...
- 5:46, david throws out a random f-air. You could've gotten a SH n-air -> grab for a potential 30-40%. But you were still DDing.
- 6:08, you shined him and he fell off. You know what you could've done/probably tried to do. After that, he got back onto the stage, but you moved really far away from him instead of applying pressure to him. He also threw out an f-tilt as soon as he got up and you were close by. You could've punished it with anything at that distance.
- After the previous statement, he accidently charged a f-smash and you hit him with a n-air. Believe it or not, that was the correct choice. The thing is though, that you didn't place it well though, otherwise you could've gotten a shine after, even if he f-tilted since you were so deep into his range already.
- 6:14, you both jumped and you decided to fade back, but you didn't shield when he was obviously going to attack (well, obvious to me anyway).
- 6:19 - 6:23, he jumped a lot very close to you. You could've punished each and every time he jumped with a n-air, or grab.
- The rest of the stock, you continuously whiff moves by putting them too short.
- On your last stock before you got the kill, every attack that david did was unsafe. You could've n-air'd him for everything, because he was too close to you while whiffing aerials.
Moving on...Game 3:
- Great first stock. But at 0:30, you could've u-smash'd him after the weak b-air. I was like "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" But yeah afterwards, you guys trade hits and he gets the ledge. You didn't try to edge pressure him at all. Try to make him nervous/force him to shino-stall and watch out for ledge-WD stuff. You know what I usually do.
- 1:00, he's chasing you and you could've easily sidestepped that dash attack. He had 3 offensive options, but sidestepping/shielding would've covered most of them:
* dash attack/boost grab (shield, or reactive sidestep [you can see the grab coming])
* jump and attempt to aerial (shield or early sidestep)
* dash-cancel -> d-tilt/f-tilt/grab (shield or sidestep)
You could do more things like roll, but those are some random things you could've done. Pretty much the other setups would've taken long to do because he was running.
- 1:48, you combo'd him into u-air and didn't even attemt to give him a hard time while he was in the air. You could've u-air'd from below again. He has to perfectly time a f-air to beat that, and it's ridiculously hard to do.
- 2:18, david was moving back when he started his recovery. You could've just stood up and it would've covered everything. You still killed him, so it's all good.
- After the kill, you hit him with a few shines....LOL @ your controller. I know that was the problem.
- Good work on david's last stock.
Finally, Game 4:
- how did you start with 40%? That's not fair...
- first 20 seconds: use your shield sometime, or CC things.
- This whole game went bad because you never defend yourself. You constantly get hit since you almost never use your shield. You also didn't follow-up with more than 1 hit whenever you landed a hit. You missed a lot of punishes, when david left himself open. It's easy to see if you watch it again. It was just a lack of precision that made you lose this match.
****, that was long.
More later if I see anything.
