Hello all, i am new around here, and also new to smash, got it when it came out, i been playing several online matchs with people from my country ( we formed a facebook group to make matchups) and lately we been doing alot of team battles but heres the problem i have, while the game works pretty well online i still live a bit far from them, and i seem to have a imput lag of around 50 to 70 ms, wich means while the slowdowns are not that noticable things that require extra precision sometimes become quiet hard, wich makes it really hard on my side at least, being this for a simple reason, i am normally matched against a ness a rob or a captain falcon, i been mostly using yoshi but the better i become the more unfair it seems to be, because even tough i am pretty sure their getting the same lag imput on smash, their characters seem to do pretty good on the lag heres why,

Ness = keeps using air + A and air side + A to keep me at distance, and protecting himself with pk fire as soon as i get over 90% percentage, he just keeps trying for the back throw until he kills me.

Falcon = extremly fast, really powerfull hits, heavy character to send outside, and really good range.

Rob = stays on corners trowing lasers and spinning thing he throwns? if you aproach he will either grab you, or use his smash side A to knock you away, or if you manage to overwhelm him he will just spin to get you away from it, and offcourse trowing him off the course is hard because he flys so much.

My problem isnt fighting them so to say in most cases, my problem is trowing them off the course, because as yoshi i need precise air combat and it just seems like they have it so much easier, so while i am still trying to improve on my yoshi i was curious what you guys been playing online with the lag and what you consider the easyer characters to deal with the lag online. Thanks :)

If it is lagging go with a projectile spammer or little Mac or a character with a side b like charizards

Something like that doesnt work on them, specially the ness, and the falcon, when i mean lagging its that micro lag, that only bothers on the really precise skills, these guys are pretty good players and since their chars have all easy KO skills its putting me at disavantage with my Yoshi ( I know yoshi has good KO skills its just in 1 vs 1 situations that they are paying atention to only me i feel at huge disavantage because of this micro lag, because i cant really follow up the combos or air fight as well ( way to short range and micro lag really hurts the combos))
