My brother, Twitch, was inspired by NC-Echo and decided to pick up Olimar recently, and I think that he's doing pretty well. Please feel free to comment/critique as necessary.

Sorry bout all of the Mario, but I'm not great with many characters.

Thanks in advance for all the advice!

EDIT: Much better vids of his Olimar up now. These should be easier to critique.

He lacks whistle, Olimar combos, priority knowledge, and he moves extremely slowly. Needs to work on spacing too.

I'll get on him about not getting any combos. Hopefully he can figure something out, and I'll tell him what I can from reading NC-Echo's guide.

How do you get the neutral air to hit well after the Upsmash? I always miss it. :(

I know that Twitch has a problem with following up. I've put up some new vids where I think you can see he tried to correct that along with some other basic problems. Critique away.
