theyre going to cape you offstage.

theyll try to shoot fireballs and approach behind it as sort of a shield, so expect that

theyll space with bairs until they can get a hit, or a jab/grab in so respond with utilting them in their feet when you think theyre gonna bair

Yeah i have had some mario practice, i play Bo x7 a lot and faced Ajax and had a dead even match even tho he *****'d fireball's the entire match. But what about raptor boost on stage, is it useful at all against mario

well expect utilt chain when you're at low percentages, it works exceptionally well against falcon. cape ***** falcons recovery but if you know when they are going to use the cape its actually pretty easy to maneuver around it. if he ever uses cape too early , than use raptor boost right above his head. when his is approaching expect fireballs and aerials. id say used spaced aerials(bair + uair). his dair gets pretty annoying, try to shield it if you see it coming. dont forget about his flud either. i think best way to kill mario is bair + utilt
