Wolf is my 2nd main, and I <3 to spam his F-Smash and not run actually I sometimes do use other moves (U-Smash, D-Smash, Reflector). all I want to know is this a good technique or should I find another one, I use aerial attacks a lot. Falco is my #1 main

You need a video. All you get across is that you spam f-smash and use other moves. I'll tell you now that spamming f-smash only works on noobs and makes you a noob as well. An experienced player will shield grab you to hell.

Spamming smash attacks is looked down upon by most Wolf players. And you'll eventually realize it's ineffective against more skilled players.

If you want advice on Wolf, I would suggest using his back-aerial a lot more often. Coupled with a short-hop it's a very effective technique for approaching and can even KO at higher percentages. Also, learning the stage-scar technique will also be very helpful.

There's also some other things about Wolf that are commonly looked at as "bad" or "useless" but I think the people who say that are the ones who hardly even put forth any effort in trying to use him effectively. His blaster while a little easy to avoid, is still useful for slowing down approaches, and the extra knockback at close-range make it safer to use at close range than Fox and Falco's. Then there's his recovery, use Side+B for reaching the ledge from horizontal distances. His Up+B recovery isn't as bad as people like to say. It requires you to carefully and quickly aim in order to hit the ledge, you also can't DI after using it. However, it's got a very long distance and with lots of experience, recovering really shouldn't be a huge problem. It's even less of a problem on stages where the ledges are easy to grab such as Battlefield, Smashville, and Yoshi's Island (Brawl).

Wolf can also spike with his down-aerial. Most people disregard this technique because they think it's too dangerous, but really it's only dangerous in the hands of a careless player. Just make sure you never double-jump off the edge, as you'll need that second jump to return to the stage. I've found that down-throwing someone off the ledge and then immediately going for a short-hopped down-aerial works very well.

You sound pretty good. My only advice is to use only fsmash; drop all those other useless moves.
All wolf users reading this, don't worry about this post, he's just trying to rile you up. That or he wants this wolf to be a weak opponent.

fsmash is good as a kill move and can also be used as a defending move but don't use it too much or you'll become to predictable and they will just roll behind you and dsmash.

Can't judge since I'm not a Wolf player and I haven't actually seen you play.

However, I''m going to give you the most useful answer ever. :chuckle:

No, no you're not a good Wolf player. In fact, you suck, go practice.

A wolf player that does nothing but spam smashes, admits that he hates moving his char, and says all of wolf's other moves are crap. You most likely suck.
