Against G&W

[MK.II]

​

This is one of the characters I seem to have trouble with, every time I happen to play him. I do believe it's mostly my spacing, getting hit with his turtle and Nair. I've been trying to keep my distance with grenade dropping and Ftilt+Dtilt and shield grabbing all his Dairs, but as soon as G&W gets close to me, I have trouble out prioritizing his Fair, and Bair, and getting through his down smash and forward smash spamming.

Any tips on my fighting style?

If he does not DI his fair back, you can punish him, the move has some lag at the end. Try to always have a grenade in hand, shield his bair, the grenade will explode and he will be sent away. G&W is extremely light, so, you can land a u-tilt early and kill him. c4 works wonders too. d-throw is good agains him, he is very easy to tech chase. Shield his f-smash(be careful with spot dodges) and punish. and try to avoid rolling behind him or getting in range for his d-smash. Use a hit and run stategy. Snake is hard to kill and G&W is easy, so, camp him, he will be forced to approach and try to drive him away when he does. And always have in mind that snake can put G&W in danger zone quickly. Just be careful with his upair too.
Last thing, if he misses a fair or nair, and is still in air, you can try to catch him with your nair, hurts him bad.

his down air rips through morters so be careful when hes above you.

you might want to smash throw a grenade if he is way high and you are at the floor. in this case, if he dairs, he will hit the grenade and it'll explode
