It may take a while to get used to it, but in the end it will only be better for you. It's always like that if you want to put something in your playstyle, or if you want to learn something in general.

Marth is the best character in the game

All i need to say is everyone should jump off the ledge facing backwards and you will have a greater chance of spiking

You know that was a common tip given by players in early may... last year.

I hope you're right. I'm actually learning Marth to make me spacing better, but i'm liking Marth more and more . I just like his aggresive playing style, it's so awesome. So is the C-Stick also better for all other characters? Since if i finally get used to it, i'll be using the C-Stick on my other characters aswell, i hope it doesn't really matter. Also, i'm having trouble Double Fairing with the C-Stick, since the C-Stick is farther away from the Y button than the A button is, so it takes more time to move my Thumb to the C-Stick than the A button.
Also, i have another question. When i try to space, i'm always somehow using retreating Fairs, Nair and all. But i don't think that's spacing. When i run at the opponent, and i hit him with the tip of my move, is that also spacing? Maybe i'll be considering secondairing Marth
DDD is my main, but i'm kinda doubting, maybe i'm better with Marth :O Because i'm having better results in matches with him.

Spacing is just the distance at which you use your attacks. I would read Steel's thread about Marth's zones to see what is the best place to stand if you want to space your moves well.

I keep forgetting to space w/ marth because I'm too focused on other stuff atm. :[
I think I have okay spacing through habit.

A little question, do you guys also use the C-Stick for tilts? Because i just noticed when you keep the control stick down and you use C-Stick down, it does a Downtilt. I'm finally getting the hang of using the C-Stick. I can do the Double Fair with the C-Stick, tho he doesn't completely finish his second Fair. May i ask with which button you guys jump. I jump with the Y button.

Cstick for tilting is unnecessary, and most people jump with y or x.
The second fair of a SHDF Can never finish completely, but if the hitbox comes out it is good. And Chileno i wouldn't do all air moves with the Cstick though.

Hmm, which Aerials should i use with the C-Stick and which one not? I know i'm quite the newbie but i gotta know this
I think i need to use Fair and maybe Uair with the C-Stick, and the rest with normal A? But i'm used to the C-Stick now, it's hard to use both A button Aerials and C-Stick Aerials. Is it a big problem if i use Aerials with the C-Stick?

tbh you dont have to use the c-stick for aerials... just a lot marths do that. I'm all A button aerials for the most part (including retrating aerials.) My advice is to do with whatever feels the best to you. as far as im concerned c-stick or just using A button is a matter of opinion.
FrreeererererereeeeeeeeeHey is this a good enough reason to keep using Marth?
yes

Might as well add my SWF signature.

How do you beat Sonic? He spins and dashes around like a mofo. I can't rely on tripping to win. I can't gimp him.

Smash Lord
Jab and dtilt and he will run into it like a ******. Seriously, they run into the ****. Then follow with DB or fair. Also you can grab him pretty easy if u block one of his attacks.
Kishin
Smash Ace
That doesn't work. His side-b ***** that. He can mindgame like a mofo since he can cancel his side-b into whatever. The match-up is 65-35, that's probably correct character wise but with all the AT's Sonic has and all the crap he can pull out then it's probably a bit different...
ZHMT
Smash Lord
Dtilt and jab a lot. Try to keep pressure on him. Sonic's offense is good, camping with fairs will get you *****.
His defense is horrible though...
Dont try to gimp sonic, its useless to try. Just get him to high % and punish his mistakes with smashes.

reverse grabs will beat out his spin dash everytime

I got him with a pivot grab like once and then he started to cancel his spin dash. I try and pressure him but it's hard as hell with him dashing around the stage. Anyone have a video of a good Marth vs. Sonic match?

how do u do that cool thing where u jump onto a platform with out any lagg from jumps or anything? I mean if i double jump i twirl in the air, if i normal jump it takes a while to land. but people like steel just land on the platform as if it were a extension of the ground! plz help me!
I think you're talking about shorthopping... just tap the jump button lightly.

Does he mean Short Hopping or Fast Falling? I'm confused....

I'm platform cancelling
You can only do it on platforms that move like Smashville's or lylat's. Just jump and hit L and down when you are about level to it. Similar to melee wave landing

It's called auto landing. The thing you do is you jump under a moving platform, tap down when you're at the height of the platform, and input something. This trick is not really that useful but it's fun to do inbetween stocks on Smashville and Lylat cruise.

Is there actually a Marth main in the sbr? Virgilijus is in the Back room but who else?
Virg has nothing to do with the SBR

Move him slightly and his cape moves with the wind?!
Also for all intense debates I sit and watch. I went pro-ban mostly because Brawl is becoming one of those "degenerative games" (SEE I CAN CITE SIRLIN TOO LOLOLOLOL).

haha so true. excellent usage of the sirlin I can definately tell you're a swf member.
I don't rly post much but I threw myself in the fray and suggested that a temp ban for mk might be a good idea and got this captivating, intellegent feedback in response
"Temp ban is useless imo. You would see all of the other top tier characters winning. "
