[kid craft 24/sonic master]

i should hopefully soon have videos from an intense set i had vs Bloodcross's fox during grand finals from a tourney i went to last Saturday. I'll never probably be able to replicate the way i KO'd him on Omega Windy Hill using springing headbutt for awhile. That and i learned how hard it is to try and punish twisting fox with another hitbox.

Though reseting the bracket after going to game 5 set one, only to take him to game 5 and lose is the most heart crushing feeling. Aside from that so many times people would gasp thinking someone had died only for them to survive......never felt the crowd get so into a match i've been apart of before, and it felt good.

back throw am i right

 

[kid craft 24/sonic master]

That red lightning causes more anxiety then finals week

 

[Camalange]

Thanks Sakurai, for adding a mechanic that is supposed to indicate death that isn't always correct, or the outcome leads to the result without said effect.

Consistency.

 

[kid craft 24/sonic master]

well i think the lightning effect was simply to signify that you have a high chance of dying if you don't DI.

 

[JamesUK7]

Could I get some feedback on my match please? Thanks.

Interesting uses for the custom Up-B... Does that up the knockback on the spring itself? You got a silly kill with a spring hit that was pretty ridiculous. Also, can you Up-B OoS as a punish? Because that's hype too.

 

[kid craft 24/sonic master]

Yea up b oos as a punish is an option just it would probably be best used when your cornered at the ledge. And the knockback on the spring itself from my experience does get stronger. As i can consistently KO people off screen with it. I mainly like springing headbutt vs fox and ZSS mainly because they love to junp and play footsies so i can get free up b to bair/fair hits. Though we were both playing sloppy at times, i hadn't used customs in awhile so i was mainly using a lot of my auto pilot combo's. If only we had 1231. Hammer spin dash to springing headbutt bair is a true combo that can basically staircase someone to the upper corner and KO at like 100

I'd say it's better to actually list your tag and not "Myself" to make it easier to copy/paste, but uh… @Phoenix_Dark isn't exactly present so…

Vs Shin(Grand Finals)

vs the Ness after going for bairs offstage (which he always airdodged) you could've fastfallen and done a fair to hit him after he airdodged past you and probably stage spike him. Saw the same situation enough times to make me comment. Great mix-ups and footsies, try adding rar bair to your gameplay and you'll have a solid punish for people trying to wall you with aerials/jumping to avoid spindash.
Also at low percents if you know they're going to airdodge after your up throw just bair, hits perfectly if they airdodge. And could've done much more after the spindash-->footstools you got, @Espy Rose knows the mechanics of what to do from that.

You're set vs shin...wayyyy to much spindash. I think game 3/4 on bf you stopped spindashing because bf wouldn't allow it and you played alot better. Versus competent opponents you can't just spin2win as you had been as your sets vs shin showed you.
You also had a bad habit of spindashing immediately everytime you got hit away.
Try playing as sonic without using spindash at all, that'll improve your approach/neutral game alot. You struggled pretty damn hard in neutral vs shin.

You're edguarding was really good overall and well as your spindash combos. Boxing was nice, remember to mix-up grabs--shin kept shielding your jabs-dtilts, and cross up ftilt is great too.

The reverse is too hard for me to do but knowing me I'll probably be in the lab breaking my fingers trying to get it done, even if its just once. Thanks for sharing.

No problem! Definitely keep up the practice. ISDJ itself isn't too bad, but I'll be super impressed if people incorporate the B-Reverse in their game. It's nuts.

I can already see myself using it in my style, that's the exciting part for myself. If I can somehow pull it off I think I should be able to pull off all kinds of mind games...Endless Possibilities.

Didn't watch the entire match, but don't use too many HAs and Smashes OoN (out of nowhere).

that Mario is pretty decent, I agree about the smashes OoN and..if the HA can land, it's fine.

Thanks guys, I'll focus on minimizing those errors in the future.

Myself and the Gainesville crew were on MVG's stream last night! I did really poorly since it is the first time I have ever been in front of such an audience, but I'm going to post my embarrassment anyway.

The two games of mine that were recorded are at 1:06:11 and 2:05:50. Both matchups were very hard!! I ended up getting a lot of practice with the Fox player afterward and I'm way more comfortable with it now, but I play with the Peach frequently and I can never win against him.
